Wish List Normal fap for The Hub

[George Skywalker]

Would like a normal fap for the hub pvp arena i.e. one with normal decay.

As it is there are only 2 realistic choices. One wait and heal. Two leave for planet cyrene heal then return to the hub. Both of which are not ideal...

Fap decay is that high probably because before players were just running around healing and stealing tokens from each other without even fighting. Now it doesn't pay off to heal yourself unless you are really fighting.

hmmm can't get my head around how that would work because it doesn't seem to make sense. Why would someone heal themselves if not fired upon? and how did they steal tokens without fighting?

Perhaps after a few shots people ran away healed themselves then they fought a little but one party would run away heal and return? Is this what you meant?

Players used to be in PG just for tokens (nothing has really changed). If you decided to shoot someone, he would just run away healing and keep picking tokens up without any problems because fap decay before was close to nothing. When there was a confrontation between pvper and healer, healer always won because it was really hard to kill them with all the speed boost and low decay. Imagine shooting someone with P5a who has an imp fap. That was something similar a while ago in the HUB. Cost to kill was way higher than cost to heal yourself all the time to stay alive.

Solution is pretty simple then have a fap low decay and low heal such that if in a fight healer will always loose. This fap would be in addition to the existing emergency fap.

Therefore this new fap would only really be useful for healing after a fight to heal to max health.


Failing that place a Heal Terminal at the entrance to proving grounds so that after you die you can use this heal terminal to heal to max hp.

Hey George,

There is a problem in the Proving Grounds that is functional in the other Arenas where upon entering the Arena you are healed. We and MindArk are looking into what the issue is (as this is also functional in the test environment).

Cheers,
