Well, the subject says it all. In my opinion the assaulters are very underpowered I'll explain why now;
-They are in iron armour while defenders can have diamond
-They are in a unkown terretory (with possible traps etc.)
-They lose all their stuff upon death
-All they get is a relic
So basicly, there is no good reason to go raiding except for the relic which isn't a huge motivation for me. First you spend ages on getting e.g. full prot IV iron armour and then you lose it because they enemy just one hits you with their full diamond prot IV armour and you can start all over again.
I know there are spread opinions about this but I do think there should be a few improvements, don't hesitate to post your opinion below!

(They also get to keep stuff off of people they kill)
Arguably making the risk/reward factor even bigger. If you can get a relic and walk out with prot IV diamond armour set? Yeah, that's worth.

Whilst I feel that assaulting is underpowered. We need to give quadrants a chance to actually try it out. If it doesn't work out too well then we can change the restrictions or consequences.

I've seen a lot of comments on Assaults and yet, not a single Assault has happened. Lets try it, watch it fail, and adjust. Also, the objective is to get the Relic. If you can get in and out without being seen or create a diversion just to get the relic that's an option. In short, no changes will be made off theory. I am working on a SITREP so details of Assaults can be reported and I can track them. I um... just may need Jack's help in making it into a form so it's easier to fill in.  Just hold off on Assaults until we're ready. I'll be working a bit more on the form today and hopefully have it up tonight. P.S. You guys have to remember, this was rushed out and this is supposed to be a "test" map. I wanted more time to figure out all of this stuff and do some personal testing. |

No , I think he just means that things will probably need to be adjusted as the map progresses |

I think there's a difference between being underpowered and too underpowered. The idea, in my opinion anyway, is that defenders should have the advantage in assaults, it's only fair. Especially since it's far more likely that the attackers will outnumber the defenders in any given situation ; the attackers plan it, they time it etc., the defenders can simply react and try to use the advantage they have been given to level the playing field.

It will always be an SMP first, the Quadrants aspects may change though. Basically consider this Beta testing  |
