Feathers - need revising

1
Author Content Date
The current limit and added delay for feathering has ruined PvP - it is allowing groups of people to camp where someone has died and means they can’t get away fast enough. In addition, at least 60% of my deaths at the moment are the result of having to load F10 and drag feathers down to my hot bar.

Changes to feathers were originally made because of one person on a stupid video being able to feather through a hundred odd feathers and end up somewhere else on the map. Just because one person has a click macro that lets them do this doesn’t mean the rest of us do. It’s ruining the game for players who play entirely legitimately.

The following could resolve this:

1. Remove the delay added for using feathers, or
2. Make feathers stack properly again (or at least in stacks of 20 or 50), or
3. Revert the feathers back entirely because they’re a staple of PvP and if players aren’t skilled enough to handle feathering then it’s their gameplay that’s the problem.

Respectfully disagree as a mage player. After not playing for about 18 months, coming back in March the Meta of feather spam was honestly terrible. I don’t know how anyone could think that was a fun pvp experience.

I actually find feathers and their use are more skilled now than before. Before literally required no skill you just spammed. Now is has micromanagement.

To try and be constructive, I’ve found if you make all your Top f10 items feathers if you open f10 (you can still click on screen to keep running) a drag and drop can be done quickly and without dying.

What do you use f1-4? I always have a TP in pvp if decent numbers. Weaken at the moment isn’t really used a great deal/when it is used blue syrums are redundant anyway. Same kind of said about zombie.

Pots feathers black syrum and tp

Stack size increase definitely
I dont mind the delay, it stops the feather spam of axers landing 5th

Would like to see say a 5second immunity on revive after death though

Axers still land 5ths regardless of there being a delay or not. The inclusion of a delay advantages the potential PKer more than the anyone else to be honest. Stack size is clearly a big issue for most people. Having to drag from f10 every few minutes causing major problems.

The fact that it is a big deal for most people, means that the feather patch has been working tbh.

It shouldn't be any easier, if you can't multitask and have the most basic micro management skills, you should be vulnerable to getting dropped.

My suggestion was to double the stack size, if it was going to get increased, and double the delay time.
