Burning Blade Rework

    Now that Flameheart has moved on with his plans, I think it's time the Burning Blade be given a more "aggressive" playstyle

    The Current Issue

    The Blade as it is right now design wise is really cool. Basically a World Event that you can become and defend.

    The issue?
    Nobody ever attacks it anymore, and when they do, the battles either end instantly or take eons. Having to sail around to 6 islands all over the map in a ship that feels like floating tungsten is a D R A G.

    Simple Rework

    Instead of needing to complete skeleton camps, what if you are also capable of gaining streaks through sinking other ships? This makes it more like the classic Reaper's Bones feel of pushing PvP, while still allowing players to complete the original method.

    In addition, this also will make 3-8 streaks more common, allowing players who haven't finished those commendations to have more chances to complete them.

    I'm not sure that farming solo sloops for streaks rather than doing the camps is better for the game.

    Sure. But you forget. Most people skip servers that have a burning blade roaming around.

    I don't know. I think it's good as it is now, but it needs to become more frequent in the world event pool. Right now it's rarer than ever. I'd gladly take away the ghost fleet event for a BB, and make the ghost fleet available only with dive voyages.

    If going to make changes then max should be allowing BB to also do voyages.

    I think it's fine. Know what's not fine? HG, that thing needs massive improvements or a complete rework.
