Title basically says it all regrouping in this game is hard there’s been so many updates to slow down sieges for balance. Party leaders should be able to place timed respawn beacons on cooldown/ purchasable items for glory. I understand it’ll make attacking and defending much more fierce on both sides and I welcome it. It will be functionally the same as people using tents properly. And can be balance by price, Up-time and having the ability to destroy it just like a siege equipment you can even give it a siege point cost on top of a glory cost and a cooldown

Also if making it a glory shop item isn’t your thing we could also argue it for a high level engineering blueprint that you have to unlock and craft.

I can imagine it being like a sudo FOB surrounded with barricades and manlets with the beacon being placed in the middled giving a place to fall back to during a siege and respawn and regroup

not party leader , guild leaders*
a very big tent that can hold [exemple] 30 respawn for guild members
downside , as its big , can be seen from far , more susceptible to be burned by the enemy rats X)

not party leaders or guild leaders, I'm thinking respawn tent like in ESO, it has a short radius so you can't respawn to it from anywhere, it has a 5 (iirc) minute cooldown so you can't just run in, die and respawn and it has a significant AP cost so you don't just spam them has a solo players.

But there are no solo tents in ESO so. I'd make the GV group tents even more expensive so it still makes more sense to use solo tents but if you want to ball out for a mid-map castle, place a big tent.

I like eli's idea. But overall this made me think of Frontline battles that pop on the opposite side of the map, depending on your nation. For instance when a 3-way Ulf/Seaclaw or Scars/GP or Tene/Rod frontline ends, this idea would be useful for all three nations who wish to stay and continue fighting after the frontline ends instead of having to respawn back to capital once you die (given you didnt pop a tent after the frontline was over, you silly noob)

I do think eventually such an addition would make sense

But idk how you would implement it to be fair.

So I agree, but rather disagree with the addition unless some deeper testing and decision process would be present as this may be quite an impactful change

ESO has those big forward tents for respawn in close area. I don’t mind if there is something like that and it cost a privilege and some materials just to make and the area for respawn is small but can be buffed with guild tech

Idk about respawn beacons but if the party leader could choose a normal respawn and have it highlight in some way for the party that would be cool

I’m not personally ok with the party leader having that kind of power it would definitely get abused or miss used by new players

nothing must be forced from another player

I’d rather just have the tent anyway my point is people wont follow directions unless it convenient, and the game already has a marker system for highlighting things we usually have the the party’s second mark spawn

#

And party control is typically for organized groups there nothing wrong with accepting a force spawn in a game when your volunteering for organized play especially in closed party

#

Just a little off topic I stand by my original idea lol 😂 if SOW comes back we’ll have to be more organized
