Do we need constant invasions and wars?

I’m all for good invasions etc and wars, part of the game, but when they are every day or 2 days back to back there is no time to do any other forms of content in the game.

Personally, I want to craft and clear my quest log sometimes but due to the demands of always needing to be there it is a lot sometimes. There should be invasions maybe once a week, and wars maybe 2–3 times a week. This would make invasions like a weekly raid you got ready for rather than something that you have little time to prepare for.

I hope that QoL features come soon because with tomorrow being 1 month the game is out this next patch is going to be make or break for the game.

I am no expert on the topic, but I believe that if the devs changed things to the way you are proposing, the game would die within 2 weeks. At this moment in time, there is little to no endgame content aside from what you have mentioned. So all level 60 players would be logging into the game once/twice a week.
I am genuinely confused about how this is affecting your ability to do quests or craft? I understand that invasions downgrade the crafting stations if they are successful, and they are very difficult to beat at this point in time. However, even with all that, unless you are heavily grinding your professions, and require all your crafting stations to be level 5 at all times, you should be fine.
On the server where I play, at least 2-3 cities have everything on level 4 most of the time, despite failed invasions and lost wars. It can be inconvenient at times, I will grant you that, but this change would effectively cause an already declining player base to decline even further by a huge margin. That is what I believe at least, and I am pretty sure the devs are aware of this.

Preach it my man! The invasions are seriously out of control, our territory gets hit at min 2x per week. Since you can’t win the invasion, you just get your stuff rekt. We have decided to just quit fixing things in our territory, why spend the gold, invasion just gonna rekt it again.

These fools at AGS fixed the staff so you can now do level 65 portals, but took away the loot, so were back to same place, no one does them and they just spawn out of control.

Just clear the portals to keep Invasiosn in check then. On my server i see only one camponay that control 2 territories having almost 0 portals on their territory. Cause company members clean them regularly

Constant invasions and wars basically keep the stronger factions in check so they don’t just eat the map and spread their forces thin.

At least I assume that is the intended purpose of it.

@XianShetsu Here in lies the biggest problem with these forums, people comment, while well intended, but have zero idea about which they speak.

What are you keeping in check? Invasions are simply just an annoyance, they keep nothing in check. On my server Valhalla, all the top Companies, mine included are stacked with lvl 60 players. Having 50 of our 100 players sign up for an invasion defense is simply us spending 30 minutes defending than out farming.

But dont forget anyone can sign up, so typically there is 200 players minimum who sign up to help defend, and since you can’t actually win unless the invasion gets bugged, you are really just signing up to smash NPC’s and earn 630 gold for you troubles.

Once again, what are you keeping in check? Its a bugged annoyance, nothing more, with nothing beneficial actually coming from it other than downgrading your town to take yet more gold to rebuild.

To your theory, if we have a war on the same day and time, we take our top 50 players to the war, let the rest defend the invasion, and fill any empty spots with random players. You can’t actually loose your territory due to an Invasion, so once again, its simply an annoyance, nothing more.

More to your theory of keeping things in check, I am in a war 3 days a week minimum, either in my own territory or helping another Company, but either way, invasions are not doing anything to keep stronger factions in check. All fractions help their own, and while I can only speak for team Green, we usually try to put the best Green players on the server in each and every war, regards of which Company they belong to help. So a war might have 8 - 10 different Companies involved than just the ones attacking or defending.

Does your faction own the whole map?

@XianShetsu No, map is pretty equal between all 3 fractions with Green@4, Purple@4, Yellow@2. Just looked at map 7 or the 10 territories are tagged with Upcoming War, basically perpetual state of war everyday, what else do lvl 60 Companies have to do?

How else would you make gold without constant invasions and wars?
