ADMIN

Cheers, TC.

I stopped reading here, clearly you're just another keyboard warrior. LoL (the unmentioned & untouched by me, kid's game):

I don't see any point to continue arguing on this subject, system can be used in any way available, people should educate themselves and that's it. As I said, maybe extra warns for those that warn as well, to be a risk. Anyway, there are 2 warns in total given in the last 3 days (6x ITs), one of them being an auto-warn for disconnect during IT, I'm not quite sure what's the problem and where is this abuse we're talking about.

Hello, here is the same patch for Inception: https://mega.nz/file/ckx3iAIS#TYBFR1Kf0bzTi0xMolH16TYWqJnYlLmN4DHTWEX-25c Replace it into MU folder then enter via main.exe.

That's not completely true, based on the game & playerbase. The players you encounter in your games, especially where it matters (ranked games) are in your MMR range. Which means, you have a very high chance to play with the same players a lot of games. And yes, speaking from experience not just "technical" point of view. This is exactly what I personally did, reporting people that I didn't like for "nothing", so I won't get with them in team again, and they got suspended in the end: This is one of the many examples where I consecutively reported the same players for things they didn't, just because they couldn't behave accordingly.

Patch is now live! Let us know if you find anything wrong after it.

Release date: 25.10.2020 at around 13:30 - No server restart will be needed, only monsters restart. News: We do have few more slots open for Council! More info: https://oldsquad.ro/forum/topic/3883-oldsquad-council/?do=findComment&comment=34402 Changelog: [UPDATED] Now when you have a mercenary quest active and you die from other sources in Karutan2, you will be respawned at the start of Karutan2, to not lose your quest. [UPDATED] Now you can no longer attack mercenaries during their merc quest while they used /qwarp, unless you are their target, just like they can't attack other targets during /qwarp. [UPDATED] Improved some of the mercenary quest messages. [FIXED] Lilium items asking for more stats than it is showing. [FIXED] Announcement when the Derkon from Atlans does die not showing up. [UPDATED] BC & DS NPCs will now send a global NPC message to everyone around when someone clicks them, with a cooldown of 6 seconds, to spread the info about /re off and /re auto before joining, to avoid black window bug. [UPDATED] Now you no longer get PK status if you kill your mercenary quest target during the quest. Also if the target does repel you it won't gain PK status. [FIXED] Move restrictions by feet from Tarkan1 -> Tarkan2 & Aida1 -> Aida2, either asking for more level than needed or not asking at all. [UPDATED] Large Mana Potions will now restore 70% of mana instead of 40%. [UPDATED] Small Mana Potions will now restore 30% of mana instead of 20%. [FIXED] Permission to drop items not being added back in the zone where the invasion monster died (even after the normal 8+ seconds), as well as being removed for others in that zone even if the monster died. [UPDATED] Removed messages related to permission removed / added back during invasions. [FIXED] Warping from Challenge zone to Gens-Maps / Crywolf deleting you 100/150 Mercenary Points, even if the challenge was completed. Note: From now you'll get a Seal of Sustenance during challenge, it will be removed when it is over. [UPDATED] Now instead of the *MAX 5 mobs killed during /qwarp" feature you will receive a Seal of Sustenance after you use /qwarp, preventing you from getting experience until the quest is over (won/lost/expired/cancelled). [UPDATED] Calendar from ingame to match the new GMT winter change. Note: Update the client via Launcher to have it.

We do have few more slots open for Council. If you are part of any guild / alliance except of HARDCORE & PURGE you can send a PM to @Gion or write us on facebook page, if you're interested to join.

What idea I have to add to the current system to reduce such cases is that when you warn someone, you will also receive a warn (2 warn points yourself for giving 3 warn points to a team-mate). In this case, you'll think twice before miss-reporting.

Wrong. If you believe companies like valve or blizzard does check hundreds of game reports (15-60m each) for such things to "verify" if the reports are valid or not, you know it wrong. If you do a simple research of how does this system works you'll find this: When a player gets reported it is flagged and gets through an algorithm, then if he gets reported by other people as well, in different games, in a short period of time, for the same reason, his flag will be updated until it reaches a point where he gets banned. There is close to 0 human interraction in the report systems, everything has a machine behind.

You live by the sword you die by the sword. You can both guilds be banned at IT by warning eachother for nothing, or you can both stop it and use your ONLY available warns to ban actual real trolls. System is exactly the same as on big MOBA games. Nothing gonna be changed about it, maybe only harder punishments periods.

An improvement for that is already up in the next patch. If you die in karutan2 during merc quest you will be teleported on karutan2 start, instead of karutan1.

Hello, Because the average online players of the last ~10 days in a 24 window is 0.5, we took the decision to end its suffer and shut it down 1 month earlier than granted, as there is simply "0.5" interest in it and we do prefer to have our website look better for newcomers. Phoenix had a great evolution compared to its first edition, it was way better and had the highest record of online players from our community. Sadly we were a bit unlucky with it, having some bigger technical problems in the first weeks, that caused many players to reconsider it, so its active life time was cut more than expected. We are still happy about it, and we expect it to be even better when it will come back. The 3rd edition will start somewhere between March and April, in 2021. As for now, Phoenix has just been closed. HoF has been added: https://oldsquad.ro/forum/topic/4056-hof-edition-03-april-2020-24-october-2020/ Thanks to everyone that took part in this project and especially to those that kept playing it on the long run!

One more fix & a small improvement has just been added, for the Merc Squad: [FIXED] Mercenary Quest targeting normalization being started from -2 -> +2 resets range instead of 0rr and then -1 -> +1 resets range. Now it should look correctly starting from 0rr difference, for a target. [UPDATED] Now the Mercenary Quest targeting normalization will use the following table: It will look for 10 times for target with same reset like you (from 5 times). It will look for 15 times for target with -1 -> +1 reset compared to you (from 6 times). It will look for 20 times for target with -2 -> +2 resets compared to you (from 7 times). It will look for 25 times for target with -3 -> +3 resets compared to you (from 8 times). It will look for 30 times for target with -4 -> +4 resets compared to you (from 9 times). It will look for 35 times for target with -5 -> +5 resets compared to you (from 10 times). If it doesn't find any target during these 135 tries (from 45), it will look for a Target with any reset.

The following changes has just been added as a completation of this patch: [UPDATED] Now the move to lorencia when killing mobs during Merc Quest will only happen if you used at least once the /qwarp command during Quest. [UPDATED] Now the move to lorencia when killing mobs during Merc Quest will only happen after the first 5 monsters killed, not from the first one. Example: You use /qwarp, you get into the higher map, you can kill up to 5 monsters, then each time you kill new mobs you will be teleported to Lorencia. [FIXED] IT NPCs missing.

As I said to someone else: Give it more time, there are not many duels usually and now everyone does the merc quest at similar time, due to fresh release. If it will really be needed we may reduce some of the messages. Suggestion remains up for others opinion.

Patch is now live! Let us know if you find anything wrong after it. Don't forget to update your client via launcher or get the manual patch from downloads if you can't use the Launcher!

Release date: 20.10.2020 at 21:15 - A small server restart will be needed, make sure to update the client via Launcher as well. Congrats to RuSuLeTzZz, mafy and Mu3rTe for finishing the Stage 1.1!

Changelog: [ADDED] /stagereward bless/soul/chaos/life - you can use it to get your stage reward based on the progress you have when the stage is over. [UPDATED] You can now continue to reset up to 10 resets. [UPDATED] EXP for Stage 1.1 (5rr) is now removed. 5th reset does have the same exp table like 4th reset. [UPDATED] Newbies EXP boost added: 0rr: +200% EXP 1rr: +150% EXP 2rr: +100% EXP 3rr: +50% EXP [UPDATED] Now level 80 ring will drop small wings for the class that drops it. [UPDATED] Drop of ES/TS/DS/etc. has been raised. [UPDATED] Released BoK+5 Goldens. [UPDATED] Released Mercenary Squad. You can write /registerpvp to join it. Note: You need at least 3 resets to join the Squad. Note2: When your target is in a higher map than your level, you can use /qwarp. Note3: If you kill a monster during pvpquest (and while target is higher level than you) you will be moved to Lorencia after the monster dies, to prevent abuses. Note4: Current Mercenary Bounty reward is: 90% chance for Soul / Life / Chaos 10% chance for IT Ticket, Scrolls (DEF,DMG,etc.), Antidotes. Note: You can vault it for later when the reward will be updated or use it as it is. [UPDATED] Released Illusion Temple 1 & 2 & IT Ticket in drop. Note: Current levels: IT1: 1-5rr IT2: 6-10rr Note: Current Stats in IT: Default 500/500/500/500 + 300 command (DL) & extra 1-10rr points, based on class, random. [UPDATED] Now if the Guild Master of the CS winners is online on CS server when Erohim does die, he will receive a message with how many ancients has been dropped from him (based on number of main guild chars in Erohim's correct range). [UPDATED] OSGM Weekly events rewards. Current rewards: Consolation at events: 2x Jewel of Soul + 5x OSP 5th place at events: 4x Jewel of Soul + 1x BoK+3 + 10x OSP 4th place at events: 4x Jewel of Soul + 2x BoK+3 + 15x OSP 3rd place at events: 5x Jewel of Soul + 2x BoK+4 + 20x OSP 2nd place at events: 6x Jewel of Soul + 2x BoK+4 + 30x OSP 1st place at events: 8x Jewel of Soul + 2x BoK+5 + 40x OSP [FIXED] LoT minimap.

Note: Only the initial Battle Masters that are set before CS does start can use STERN, no matter the ulterior changes. [FIXED] Ice Arrow skill being deleted if you don't have the stats to use it, instead of staying "inactive". + Other small fixes / adjustments / improvements. Dynamic Characters Balance tweaks Based on the Council's feedback for 0-5rr & our own view related to chars, this are the following tweaks for Stage 1.1: [UPDATED] Improved PvM ASR gained from level & STR for RF. Note: We were a bit harsh with PvM ASR for the RF on the first resets, we're bringing it back to normal. [UPDATED] Nerfed MG PvM damage with 5%. Note: Just a small nerf, EMG is living the expectations of being one of the best chars at PvM especially in early - totally fine. [UPDATED] Buffed SUM PvP & PvM damage with 16%, Note: Summ is considered to be way underperforming at the current stage, we may remove this buff later if it will be needed. [UPDATED] Increased Mana needed for Triple Shot & Multi Shot (ELF) from 5/10 to 15/20. Note: The infinity arrow from level 1 did helped, but it transformed elf into a character with no real stress related to arrows/pots, especially "abused" by farmers. [UPDATED] Increased Mana gained from ENERGY on Elf from 1.5*ENE to 2.5*ENE. Note: One more reason to add ene for Ice arrow, for lower "repot" stress. [UPDATED] Slightly increased Dark Side base damage of the skill. Note: To help a bit more on early, though ARF will shine with higher stats as expected. [UPDATED] Reduced Dark Side mana cost from 35 to 25. Note: Same reason, to be more in line with rest of early skills mana cost for low energy builds. [UPDATED] Normalized the range of Flame, Lightning, Penetration & Drain Life from 6 to 5 Note: Like most of the USED skills.

Accepted & implemented in the next patch. PM with name for reward.

1. It's like saying don't make PvM invasions / events because BK is the worst for them. 2. It is what was happening on first arena tournament version, and we're trying to reduce such things on this one with different restrictions. 3. This is what I wrote, that they will be disabled as council suggested. 4. Last man standing means to remain alive, king of the hill means to score as many points as possible, different objectives. 5. Buffs are deleted except of personal buffs, so party or not - it's useless. If it was possible to have same CC thing it was the easiest solution for previous arena version. It is not possible. I don't feel like it's more complicated than previous version. It is just more fair / gives more chances to people. I promised that I will bring a new AT version when I removed it, people are asking for it, so I have to deliver.
