I am getting really frustrated at all the 0 mot "duelers". I started playing when world 6 came out (no forts/alliances/market/ or mult NPCs to lower duel level) There was a certain respect between players, even enemies, that are not really present anymore. I am only on Dakota as I just started back playing again after about a 2 year hiatus and it seems everyone and their mother are 0 mot duelers, since there is an abundance of named weapons available.
I would like to propose a couple of options.
1. since duelers can use NPCs to lower motivation to 0 which translates to 0 mot at dueling actual players, then why can't we use NPCs to KO ourselves and put us out for 48 hours. The way I see it is that the duelers are working the system to their benefit so why can't we?
or
2. Separate the NPC motivation from the actual dueling motivation so that they take the xp and have to actually work at getting down to 0 motivation .
Another problem is camping work sites. I am a premium player, not sure how long that will last, and I am tired of getting hit at the high paying jobs when they have either silver or gold outline. Something should be done so that we have a better chance of getting out alive instead of being camped by 0 mot duelers from same town ganging up on us cause they know we are making a lot of money from a job. It is just ridiculous cause the ring around Construct A Casino just screams come and hit us.
The fix could be to not show the jobs, as before, if said dueler isn't high enough in SP to see it. Also could make it to where only towns in that county can see the silver/gold ring maybe? Not sure about that. I have been back for only about 2 months and getting tired of this game already as there is no shortage of "duelers" who always seem to take the easy route and only hit people that aren't duelers.
The bounty system is a joke, so I don't want to hear that that is an option. Once their bounty gets up they will either give it to alliance mate or take off weapon and give to whoever so they get rid of bounty.
