#141256, "It's a flawed system all around. "


          

Requiring 1 mage kill, or currently 3 mage kills, for induction is fairly frustrating to anyone wanting to join the cabal. This has been argued multiple times. It rewards players who coordinate with friends for mage kills and punishes newbies who don't know the 'work arounds' and will likely end up eating 3 deaths consecutively if playing a mage.

My solution has always been give potential ragers 'applicant' status once they reach a certain threshold of magical items given to Tahren OR mage kill. You are destroying magic, you are doing something under your own control to do it. You literally cannot make a mage log in. Longest I have been is 3 weeks without a mage kill and that is after playing multiple hours a day. 3 weeks to basically start a character.

Maybe like if 40 hours and have given magical items to Tahren prompt the applicant quest.

Current system only encourages 'role breaking' or 'betrayal' behaviors. And by the way, asking someone to group and bashing them down didn't used to be a bad thing, a dead mage was a dead mage. Now everyone is held to parity/honor regardless of berserker status.
