The Segregation is REAL!!!

So my main is a dhan, i've been playing dhan since I downloaded Origin and it has been quite nice!! Although I rarely ran into people there was always people in Dhan Town. So great!

Today I make a ranger to play around with my old style class. AND WTF. I am like stunned at the amount of people in Einhoren area, obviously it should have been common sense that 2 classes in one area will be less VS 5 in Einhoren but that is insane, i feel like there would be such a better experience all around if there wasn't that barrier when this thing exits OBT!!!

Like seriously 10 to 1 difference. Lets make it so the community can be a "community" and not a totally different feel of game just because you choose assassin classes! Basically the FISH and the DHANS feel left out!

We have to wait for people to be on PM or at Ehres to find PT, where all others can probably walk into Einhoren and be like "who wants to go f*** some S**T UP?!?"

Am i right? OR am I RIGHT?:eek::eek::eek:

It's a silly concept, considering that with exception of not being able to go to each others starters area's.. there's absolutely no barrier whatsoever. No actual war, no story, no penalty or bonus to party with someone from the other/same race, etc.

Basically, it's just redundant.

Yeah except when you try to enter their starting area, Patrol wrecks you. Hit me for 188k at lvl 50

Having race-based segregation in an open world pvp game really doesn't make a lot of sense. Who in this game actually takes the stance of dhan & dekans vs everything else? Nobody, That's who. And really they never had - except for the odd ass-mode dhan or dekan (which really was for nothing more than sh!ts & giggles).
So why bother with the segregation?

It really isn't fair to the dhans & dekans when only 2 races can sell in their city vs elves, dark elves, half elves, humans & giants can completely crowd the main thoroughfare with kiosks. This is the one area in which Rohan: Origin fails horribly.

From Story/Lore Point the Separation is understandable but it's rly strange that you need to have a lvl 1 "Einhoren-Shopping-Character"^^.

The Point about Pm and Gathering hall is false thou at lvl 35 all quest-roads merge into one and you can do your quest or parties with what ever character you want.

There are games that do have race segregation and use it as the central point to their pvp possibilities. In those games I can see the need to have separate home towns and even worlds because they are total enemies with each other. The segregation provides more structured pvp rules and possibilities that open world pvp games like Rohan does not need.

For Rohan where pvp can be non-consensual between any players as long as they are levle 30+ it simply makes no sense to segregate races. All races could be serviced by a single town with the addition of a single npc that exclusively handles assassin mode for Dhans/Dekans (for other races it would simply refuse to change the character mode).

Also in those games there are Ranged, Magic, Melee, And healing classes for both sides though. i agree with the one town thing, and not even having to make that town. They just need to lift barrier and eventually everyone will mutually understand where to go for sales, to party, and just chill and chat. We can't even just chat with everyone, that's annoying.

Lets not forget to mention that you can't even see if what you need is in Einhoren Kiosk through Kiosk search (even though you'd have to whisper and pray for a reply) and half the sedo gear i had to look for, for days is sitting in einhoren begging to be bought, max stats and all.... so disappointed.

I think the intent is to have people sell at the GH. Problem is it needs forgers/refiners/etc. Wouldn't be a big issue otherwise.

Something it used to have, oh and don't forget the bank... like what are they thinking

But they took away the easy trip there (no GH icon on the right of the screen). Now you have to map-jump to ahres harbor (annoying!! but the same thing yopui have to do to go to your home town home). At least the kept the price at 0 crones to get there and the trip is instant rather than waiting 20 seconds.

Have you ever wonder, the Assassin mode of Dhan and Dekkan are useful in raiding. :)

They don't count the Murder kill points

That is a definite plus for playing a dekan or dhan. http://www.webprime.ca/smilies/icon_satan.gif But there really doesn't need to be a separate town for them at all. Just an npc.

but the segregation is real. the best thing to do for reaching 100% of the audience is to do all your kisks at GH :)

I'd say, use consignment shop, but y'know ;o

I actually prefer it. No need to wait and there's no cooldown on it anymore. The map position stays the same and it's about the same number of clicks as using a portal stone depending on which bags you kept items in.

The only downside is the lack of proper merchants/bank/etc. This is a pretty simple fix to perform and I think all is resolved.

No idea why they removed the bank - or perhaps for this exact reason?

LOL, log in with dhan or dekan and search... do something simple but rich in shops. Say Sedorian. Now, mentally note what armors you seen. Then take a character into Einhoren and look through shops. See how much Sedorian you didn't see in the search. I believe you will change your perspective greatly ;P do this for me please.

How is it free? Ive been porting there and paying. Unless Im porting to the wrong bind? I go to the one that used to have the newbie gifts. lol

P.s (No, I wasnt awake at that ungodly hour when you pmed me the other day haha I frequently leave my char/s up some hill top away from mobs and go afk and then sometimes forget to log off. I'm kinda shocked she hasn't been pked yet lol

Port to the city, not the bindstone. Bindstone are a thing of the past.

If you set the bind there as your chosen bikndstone and if you are a wiz/lock you can port you and your party there for free with their porting skill. The powers that be really buggered that skill up when they took away the portal stones. It ports to only go to a single destination - your respawn point.

Personally I can't see much value to putting more than one (or any) point in it. It seems that each point only reduces casting time rather than adding function (i.e. free hop to any bind not just the respawn one). Using the map the porting is instant unless you are being attacked.

make alt, port to grindspot, summ alt, summ yourself+50, done cost: 300 crone + (initial porting + summoning fee once)
