Thank you *Flailer. Often times we are called greedy for "Hoarding" the relics. But if I only have an hour to play between waking up and going to work then I tend to go raid relics so that AO as a Faction gets the bonus not just for me. As much as some might consider this a waste of time it is a selfless act that helps the whole faction. More often then not, I don't get to enjoy this bonus since by the time I log back on the relics have been stolen again but I know that at least someone has benifited. Personally, I don't consider that a waste of time.Flailer wrote:But - if you spend one hour getting the relics everyone in your faction gets the XP bonus, not just you. So, you personally might come out short 500xp at the end, but your faction gets a net gain during that second hour that exceeds 500xp.
Which, is entirely the point.

*Edit Thanks to Fatzo pointing out my sleepy error.
...i guess it just comes down to a players personal opinion on the relic system ....if you enjoy capturing relics to benifit the masses, then more power to you ! it is also one of the essentials to being in a guild....but if relics are not your cup of tea, you could end up pwning your own efficency...players have been driven to the point of utter frustration and anger over the relic system....it has happened to myself as well as some others inside and outside of LA....when i get fed up, i revert to my long rant here to rationalize my non-participation in relics until i feel better again or have the sudden need to pwn another faction.
and if i could i would eat every halfling in evenshire, but that would bring upon the extinction of your race
