Sharp-eyed readers of the 1.70x patch notes over the last few days have noticed a series of disparate items that, when matched together, point to a great new addition to Dark Age of Camelot: you now have the option of gaining experience via RvR or PvE at any time on your journey from level 1 to 50. We are adding all-new Battlegrounds, raising the experienced gained for killing other players, and making other changes that give players options in how they accrue experience.
These Battleground changes are all part of New Frontiers, our free RvR expansion. Here's a list of the new additions to the game. These new features have all been made in the 1.70 patch cycle, which is still in testing on Pendragon. They will go live when New Frontiers launches.
You now get 8x experience for killing another player, compared to the amount of experience on normal servers up until now. This is now the same amount of experience gained for killing any enemy as on Mordred, the PvP-only server.
There are new Battlegrounds for all levels up to 45. These are 1-4, 5-9, 10-14, 15-19, 20-24, 25-29, 30-34, 35-39, and 40-44. So, there will always be a place where you can go engage in RvR, no matter your level - if you are level 45+, of course, you'll be going to the New Frontiers. You are not limited to these Battlegrounds - just like always, if you want to go out to the New Frontiers and engage in full-scale RvR, you are welcome to attempt to do so at any level.
You can stay in any of the Battlegrounds for as long as you wish, provided you don't level out of them. Players 15th level and above still accrue Realm Points for engaging in Battleground RvR, but now, once you've hit your cap, you are not barred from the Battleground - instead, you just won't accrue more until you attain enough experience to level up to the next Battleground.
The new level 1-4 Battleground starts out with very basic terrain and objectives. Each successive Battleground adds new features and objectives, such as keeps, towers, water, boats, etc.
The end result of all these changes is that players of Dark Age of Camelot, through the New Frontiers expansion, have the option of engaging in PvE OR RvR to gain levels. No longer will you have to wait to level 15 to be able to enjoy the thrill of fighting against other players in Dark Age of Camelot - now you can do it from day one of your character's existence.
davvero clap alla mythic.. io credo che un pg me lo faro' tentando di exparlo fino al 40 solo coi bg :D
