    Ok, i know that a War plot hasn't occurred since Curse of Maraqua back in 2005. So about 3 years have passed and we haven't had a war plot.

    Now, i her some people say that somewhere in the editorial that TNT said that they will no longer have a 'pure' war plot. But, i can't find that certain editorial.

    So, do you guys think their will be a war plot again or do you think it will only be about KQ/NC Mall/Customization??

    It's likely there will never be one, as the battle dome isn't one of TNT's focuses anymore. They're more worried about the majority, not the stronger minority who could simply ruin the economy.

    Yeah that is very true. Given the fact when the maraquan plot & that Meridell one happened, the BDers had lots and lots of points.

    I'm guessing a war might break out here and there and even so the points won't really do much, or there will be no points at all and maybe fighting isn't mandatory but will be a part of it. But I honestly don't see it happening anymore. Half the plots now a days are probably going to take brain power instead :p

    It seems they are integrating to a limit to the number of battle wins one gets in a plot. That is the war I guess...

    and thats the only thing is the win limits which is set to about 30. And since the plot is brain base now a days, prizes will suck because now their are guides that help people achieve the full potential of the plots. Thats why i think TNT needs to hold at least a war plot and a puzzle plot to accomplish both goals

    i saw that editorial before , 2 years back.

    And i agree, TNT wants to balance things out. Bders would simply ruin the point system. But seriously, when has the point system ever got anyone REALLY good? Only top BDers had nice items...

    The only thing good about the BD point system is the spiffy trophies

    i have to say that it is starting to be balance a little bit. I mean Key Quest will lower the prices of codestones allowing to train more. The NC Mall/Customization has reached out to a whole bunch of people now as wearable cloth items are like the new weapons, so TNT is trying to bring balance to that.

    Personally, i think TNT should focus on BD as well now that more people are being diverse and that this an area that needs improvement. Also, if TNT didn't want BD players to rack up the points, then why retire the weapons that are the main problem. IE: SuAP, GSword, FSS, Jade Sorchstone, etc.

    sorry , didnt quite get what u mean by the retired items... You mean the crazy inflating of BD items?

    Well if everyone had the same item then it would take away the fun of 2player BD, and anyways they are always coming out with fresh alternatives (like the leaded vial for Jade ss)

    Also not forgetting the fact that these uber items are easily countered with defense weapons, quite frankly the reason people quit 2 player.

    I doubt it. For the reasons given really. But I think they should. Many new people never got to be involved in one (such as myself) so they are depriving us of a war!
    And normal plots are boring.

    Dunno

    Maybe they sell weapons on NcMall, after furnitures and clothes. So they could even start a new WarPlot

    Selling the weapons at the nc mall is just stupid. There will only be >100 people battling.

    I doubt there will be any more actual wars although I'd very much like one. :p Tnt doesn't care about the bd anymore, which explains why almost every part of the site has been updated, but the bd hasn't.

    well bders also poot alot of time and neopoints into their pets. if they get a pet to 200 str/def/hp boost they are spending around 25mill (estimating). so why shouldnt they deserve better prizes?

    no argument here. If you look at the plots that followed the Lost Desert Plot, they have gotten horrible. They have just been stupid quizzes and little puzzles. They only had little batteling but set a dang win limit at 30...should be higher
