Nexus poll

ok... ever since the first day i stumbled in to nexus and tryed to lvl up some PR skill i have been dissapointed to find its forest materials.. when i first found this out and put a ticket in the guide replyed that nexus is an extension of matis.. doesnt that give them an advantage? since there isnt any maps dedicated to any of the other races with supreme materials?

my question is this should nexus be forest mats or PR... or should we all have a map dedicated to our race like nexus where we can go get supreme mats if we are strong enough to face it?

hehe watch the matis people cringe at the thought of this poll... im making it an open poll too so we can see if its just you matisians who think you should have your own area for supreme mats ;)


*i voted for a map each* this gives us more places to explore and get eaten :D

Some points dicussed (IIRC) in that old thread:

* why there are no supreme mats outside?

* don't we risk all players digging only in PR after word of mouth says 'don't dig forest, go PR directly'

* what's the point of digging in PR if supremes are outside? (racial crafting only?)

* we don't know if Nexus is part of something to be revealed.

* why are we focusing in one aspect of the racial differences? what about having q200 zones in safe towns for Matis and Tryker?

* why (old issue) is tryker so much harder

etc
etc

Enjoy the read

nexus is one of the greatest imbalances in the game imho

i voted an extra map for each race like nexus but i don't see that coming anytime soon, unless we make it ourselves (R²)
on the other hand, PR would sort of lose it's advantage, being the only place with supreme mats (besides nexus).

it just sucks putting a hell of a lot of time in lake/zorai/ harvesting etc then realising there is no possible way to get supreme mats without begging people for them, so you're forced to grind another 150-200 lvls in another harvesting tree :p

yes it is, however I do not want it changed. It's not like it's outside yrk and easy to TP to. changing this would be a short term good, long term bad thing.

I think the developers who made the maps play matis ? ;)

Was a saying back in the Old days "The devs love the Matis" we had DP hill back then in MG upto Q250 with excl and sup mats, even now theres excl amber upto Q200 in MG (unless its been changed )

yeah it does give forest harvesters a nice little bonus. But it's only a q200 area so sooner or later u have to move to PR.
I imagine that its this way for a reason, so voting leave as is.

why harvest nexus? I havent tried it myself, but its supposed to be as hostile as PR, and max 200q.. so yes, matis can harvest there using their original skill.. which might get some out of GoC :P Matis have no easy access to q200 lands.. which forces them to over harvest GoC.

I am in favour of more lands, but dont hold out much hope of seeing them anytime soon

But thats the thing Rushy, You use a Forest dig in Nexus. Then once you go above q200 its back to Verdant Heights where you can only get ecxellent or lower.

They would only have to move to PR if they were desperate for Q250 supreme mats
