The hamlets are imo useless. The risks/reward for holding them is just to low.
- When you sent units to just hold a hamlet for 1 hour you now that you will get attacked and lose the units. And because the amount of units wasn't high you won't get any PvP worth to mention as well.
- When you sent in all your defense to destroy the attacks on them you'll still lose a hell of a lot of units which the reward for keeping it and the PvP points will never make up for. Keep in mind that in the hamlets there is no castle defense bonus or anything.
- Attacking it will give you (every day) some resources and 2 dragons (depends on your lvl) and in comparison more PvP points because the defense isn't as strong as it would be in a castle/beacons because of the castle def bonus.
And I just watched the suggestion video on youtube and the new idea is that the attacker will get the resources that the defender has gained in the period he held the hamlet???? Really???? Who thought that was a good idea.
- edit: Another problem is the travel time towards the hamlets. When you hold a hamlet it will get attacked by all kinds of people. So when you want to defend you honor by attacking that person you will find that he/she resides 5 or more hours away from you. That will take up a lot of boosts or the attacker has the chance to build up a WOD. Again a big disadvantage for the defender. Now it's just a free for all to attack.
Hamlets were dead but now finished of completly. Instead of evening the odds out between attacker and defender you just made it worse. As I said before, please delete the hamlets so you can clear up some server space. Or!!!!
I would like to see
- that the travel time towards hamlets gets longer
- delete the personal events about the hamlets
- a def bonus for the defending player
- sent the resources that the defender allready build up sent to the defender and not the attacker.
This way hamlets get more attractive to actually hold them and thus there will be more hamlets that can be attacked for PvP points. Also the smaller players will think twice of attacking a hamlet because the risk of getting attacked at their own castle is much greater. The hamlet tournament will get more interesting.
