The village used to be a place to keep the great Magic’s of the world at bay. A counterweight to the strength that was Masters or even Nexus.
Over the years that has completely changed. The once proud and useful village has become a breeding ground for trolls, griefers, hacks, no RP murderclowns and the like.
Parity was put in place because the powers that the village has (including other factors such as how little a villager needs to be functional. I.E.preps, coin, gear) were meant to be used fighting super-powered mages sporting 3000 bps. Not in making trance-less assassins with less than 1000 hps go splat.
Parity, nowadays means whatever the current rager in the situation wants it to mean. You were on the eastern? Then you were clearly headed to the village and therefore are in need of a village gangbang. You’re traveling with mages as a thief? Well we’ll go ahead and focus on you because you’re “easier” and will go splat quicker. No problem.
The village and their powers and their relative ease about preping and such used to mean something. But now it’s all garbage and anything can be justified by the flimsiest of explanations.
The village, now, is a hollow shell of its former self. I swear to god it’s actually sad. They have all that power and nowhere to aim it, so it’s just devolved into the Cobra Kai of CF but without the cuteness.
A bunch of aimless degenerates who want an easy hero pk situation. No preps needed. No gold needed. I suppose you’ll need a couple of pieces of gear to cover stat loss, but that’s about it. Just get out there and kill. Little oversight. Almost no RP. And anything goes.
If you’ll notice, Java, I’ve mostly dismissed your entire comment. You just like to argue, and quite frankly, I completely tune you out at this point.
