I think this whole thread is stupid. The changes they make aren't going to be unbearable. Its not like its hard to get rid of anyways. I agree with tetra, why mess with things that aren't really broken? Go fixed ranged!

This feature already exists in game. The tick down is so slow that most people don't even notice it though. Making it even slower seems rather silly and pointless.
Are you sure about that ?
From my understanding, it decreases only when you are not logged. That's meant to help casual palyers. And it's supposed to disappear in 3 days IRL. Right now, you can die in the evening before you log out, and log in the next day without DP. It decreases too fast. That's what they are going to fix.
I never noticed that DP was decreasing while I was IG, not by the slightest bit.

All of that is what I guess of course. What do I know :)

according to patch notes it's now 20 IRL days, i dont think it has anything to do with if ur logged in or not, or how much DP you got.

Lol, if you can get your DP off in 20 days - you are in trouble to begin with.
I say fix the bugs instead of implementing useless features

If yo can run out of the aggro range of the mob even after it has targeted you, shouldn't it have a chance to lose sight of you?

i think every time it is out of aggro range, it should have a chance to lose it's lock on you.

Hey can I make a suggestions about DP here? Will Cerest read this thread? I hope so!

This is going to blow your mind.

Let us be able to BUY DP off!

Like donate some munnies to the Kami Altar or the Karavan Skull of Death machine and get rid of your DP. So for those who wants to get rid of DP fast, allow them to spend some munnies to get rid of it instead of grinding it off (but leave the old system in place too). Make it expensive tho, like 100 dp = 1 dap.

oh, and from the patch note:
[ F i g h t i n g ]
. You only get a DP when killed by a mob from which you would have gained experience.
Anybody verified this yet? Go let a yubo kill you and lemme know :)

20 days is a joke. Why even bother.

my point exactly....

So if i quit for almost a month, then my DP will fall off? What's the point? I probably would not even remember I had DP when i logged at that point.

well isn't it nice to know that at least some of your death penalty is being worked off while you stand around scratching your blue ... um ... armpits?

I mean, this isn't a detrimental thing that goes agaisnt you, it's an additional bonus.

I kind of think it should be somewhere in the middle. 3 days was a bit to fast and 20 days it a bit to long. I would prefer something along the lines of 7-10 days. I know some casual players that only get to play once a week or so which would benefit them but not go so fast that it can disapear before you get a chance to have to deal with it. Either way I am fine with it.
