It kinda just started out as a idea by me and my mom and dad. Instead of 4 tiers why not have a option for advanced tier systems.
For example:
Unarmed thralls are tier 1-3 (depending on level)
But for named thralls make them go from just being tier 4-10 with 10 being the most OP stats.
Like at tier 4 all of the stats have to be at least 14 points on every stay by level 20 and every tier after 4 you add 2 to the minimum stat requirements. Like tier 10 is measured like
14+2(10)=34 by level 20
The simple answer is because followers used to be far more powerful than they are now. This caused a great many problems for the game. Players didn’t like playing a game where they weren’t able to be the hero because thralls were so much more powerful than players. Even more so, this situation had major impacts on PVP, making it something that was complained about constantly because players didn’t like being constantly one-shot by other people’s thralls. As a result, the devs have spent several years repeatedly nerfing followers (pets, especially, got nerfed into near uselessness and never finished being rebalanced). It is extremely unlikely that they would reverse this process and deliberately go out of their way to make thralls more over-powered than they ever were before (they might do it by mistake, but they’d never do it intentionally), even if they were listening to any suggestions made by players…
I should probably not have said “Most op” I’m not saying that the thralls need to be one shot I’m just saying like the stats like strength, agility, vitality, and grit. This way beginners could see what would be a better thrall
Thralls were never a match for a half decent player. They were inconvenient for off-line raiding, as they actually made it a bit harder. That was the main problem. The rest were excuses.
Sure, they could one shot you if you weren’t careful. So what? I play with settings that make a lot of npcs one shot me. It’s the only way of them posing any challenge.
Pvp was, is and will always be a mess. For pve, thralls are entirely optional.
Why one small part of comunity cryed about thrall be strong they cryed for nerfs because they wanted be the HEROS so funcom nerfed the thralls even when thralls have very bad AI and act like brainless soldiers.
Many time ago i tried with some others to fight versus the nerf posting many strong points to funcom dont nerf the thralls but they ignored it.
right now thralls and pets are useless in this game in pve they are weak and have bad perfomance and in pvp almost no one use they.
They got what they deserved, tbh. Lack of foresight does that kind of hings. It was a slippery slope. Well, now we see the end result. Thralls are way too much trouble for what they are worth.
The real reason Funcom nerfed thralls is exactly for people to stop using them as they greatly impact their shity servers performance. A lot of idiots fell for the “be the hero of your own story” bullshit, tho. They made the player so OP that you don’t need thralls for anything, but decoration. Like pets, that are even worse. In the end, both suck and are just too much trouble for what you’ll get in return.
The reasons I stopped playing in PvP and PvE servers and now play single player are:
Single player/ coop with friends is the way to go.
