to be honest all major war deccers camp either hubs or main routes. So i think the watch list issue is a bit mute. We managed for years without them.
Clearly the monetry value hasnt made a difference at all.
The main thing you could do is make all war decs 500mill that would make people really think about deccing random people for nothing. Wars for me should be about 'really' declaring war on someone for a reason not just for another target.
The war dec is really silly tbh, CCP just create something to circumvent the high sec mechanic of stopping people getting shot.
As i said i think war deccing is fine, but just to have lots of easy targets in highsec is not. Sure you will have the cash cows that can spend billions on targets but you cant stop that, unless you just remove war deccing altogether. Hmm now theres a thought

i meant to add that actually defenders do have the ability to get allies however there are no real allies around just chose from no one (and this maybe an opportunity) advertises that they are like merc allies where anyone who gets decced can go them to help.
given the amount of wars surely tis could also be a COST FREE option for people that want to have high sec targets. i tried it for an experiment and had easily 30 plus war decs for free by just offering assistance instant lots of targets.
but havent done since just well because no real reason but was a good way to to do it so dont know why more dont off assistance.

I think watchlists should be nonconsensual as long as you're in space.
Where it up to meGäó NPC corps would wardec each other on random occasions as part of lore and immersion (etc. etc.). That would really stir the pot a bit. I would even give player corps options to assist as a means of gaining corp-corp standings for faction building. It's not up to me, so I can just scratch my ass instead.
thats called faction warfare lol |

lets face it wars are never consensual, wars are really rarely about 'i want to declare war on someone because they have done me wrong, or i want retribution etc' In eve its very much i want to kill people in highsec and this is they mechanic CCP have implemented for me to do that.
Now at such a low price to do that for many, this sort of conflicts with the safety of highsec or the percieved safety of (please dont quote but empire isnt safe, I know that) however it has police and you cant just kill someone, but CCP have made it far to easy and cheap just to actually go kill someone.
You will never get rid of this thought process of a war being about killing people in highsec and lets face it, its all about killboard padding and epeen! nothing more.
So you have 2 options, you either remove war decs altogether and thats it, because everyone wont agree on everything on how wars should be done, and we'll be back at this stage sometime after the next iteration thats been implemented complaining its still broken. or you stick with it but you increase cost significantly to make a war actually meaningful. People think before they declare war. Now that could be done as some suggest based on your corp numbers vs corp numbers youre attacking or some genius formula. But it shouldnt just be about a workarund for people to pad their killboard.
Another option actually is that maybe only wars can be declared in low sec so there is a consequence and balance to cheap wardecs and you didnt raise costs. Thats just a thought that popped in my head.
War decs shouldnt be about capture the flag type play becuase its never a mutual thing either, thats where battle areans's come in. |
