I think a change from 'convoy and plunder' will never happen unless it's copied from any more advanced version of this game since basically, correct me if I'm wrong, I think that oasis doesn't work at redefining codes ingame without basing through the advanced ones, but well, I feel slightly bad aswell about f2p players who wants to get stronger and play longer getting not much of given care through them given that the game prioritizes payed and relatively stronger players.

tl;dr

it's a sad and a given fact that features like 'convoy and plunder' provides better satisfaction to those who dedicated more time (and money!) to the game, but we can't do anything but to let it out so we can relieve ourself from the pressure :)

And you're always free to start again from a new server and do it all over again (including the part that you lose at plunder everyday from more dedicated players lol)

Well if you keep your lvl 15 lvl below top 50,you are plunder free,but even being plundered every day,still is over 500 coupons per month+monthly sigh in 200,and 400 from fox,not to mention group wheel,group summon,ninja test,survival trial.I know is unfair,i been on both sides,plunder and plundered,no matter what i do is feel like robery.Best advice i can give is,make goals you want to achieve,and follow them,for example when i wanted sailor Sakura,i saved 2 months for her,now i have her

:x I feel bad now, I got Sailor Sakura in 2 weeks x) 47 frags from Mission Mobilization (which you can get 35 for free more or less) and spent around 1.1k in treasure of the sage...so huge discount for me :x

well if you actually start on a new server instead of a random and old one and if you play enough to catch up with other players there wont be much plunderers

because you will be at the nearly same level or you can be able to defeat them

maybe plunder/convoy isn't your problem, servers is

The problem for people like you comes from leveling up too fast while power and gear remains growing at a much slower pace and that puts you on every strong player's radar because the system operates based on level capp so when you reach 15 levels under the top 20-50 your name is going to be shown to each and everyone of those players, in which case you should consider abandoning SS transport for coins only unless you're positive that a much stronger player is always going to be there to provide assistance. You do that because giving 50 coupons to an enemy player from a different group ultimately puts your whole group in a disadvantage because if that same player plunders you every single day you'll soon realize that you bought this person a Minato or a Nagato or he gold refined all of his items thanks to the coupons you gave up for free. Yes you can try to outsmart them by keeping a close track on the guild protokoll or guild history thing (no idea what its called in NA) and learn at around what time X player plunders and then make a decision to transport in the safest time period based on those facts to increase your chances of avoiding the plunderer or try to sneak an ss while there's matsuri or great ninja war event, or go all the way and sacrifice event participation for a good 70/30 chance you pull thru, or be the ultimate gorilla* god and create separate accounts for each guild > get accepted > afk around plunder dude in base > profit. BUT unfortunately no matter what you do there's still a huge percentage that you get mugged regardless so I suggest you forget about plot instances and start focusing all your resources on gaining power. Although I agree that plundering and transport should be balanced with each giving approximately the same benefit value but that wont happen so it's pointless to ask for change, instead you should look for ways to adapt.

The problem is you should keep your random thoughts to yourself and get better at playing this game.

There have been countless new threads on plunder the last few weeks WITH SOLUTIONS PROVIDED by the community. There is no need to start a new thread.

The issue is the mindset of these players not looking for solutions but only want oasis to change. Just like with the "power first" conversations on the forums, you have people asking why people with higher powers are their sage brackets but fail to mention that they leveled to fast via plot instances and don't have enough power compared to those who understand the game.

Just like what kurami said, figure out when the plunderers on your server are active and do your convoys when they're aren't active. The convoy/plunder system won't have any big changes to satisfy the type of player you are since the China server is little different than ours but not as much.

well our plunder system in our server is like one will not stop unless he get's all his plunder tries used, even if you have to wait 6 or more hours

Usually there are quite a number of diff people doing plunder so u might wanna get into a grp where ppl r able to defend you or pray and hope ppl dont snipe your convoy 25mins after the standard cut off time.

I remember there was a time that the server im in, majority of the ppl stopped SS convoy for a month to make them wait for nothing. XD

i think it hurts no one if they remove plunder from player .

that way everyone enjoy the game and be happy , no hate , no *talk , no conflict.

Uhmm i forgot to mention that I'm on the waiting side

just join strong groups for safe SS

Same XD

Was on the plundered side till i was stronger to be on the plundering side =)

Well as previous reply mentioned, having to be in a stronger group will also help u keep your ss safe =)

Imagine there is no plunder,.or convoy had more tries.No bond scrolls in weekly events,new ninjas in the shops.

Imagine all the players, getting packs from great ninja war,yu hoo wee ee ish.

Imagine there no dango,like it's ...ing hard to do,No admin or game liasion to decieve us,advance threads in SA too.

imagine all the players, affording jonin minato, yu hoo wee ee ish

you may say i'm trolling,puk yah,but I'm not the only one.our server is dead, yall should join us,since in six months we'll be again the only one.

My server is almost dead too,we got 4 plunderers,2 from my group,2 from rival group,so they are easy to avoid.

the misbehavior thread is full because of plunder issue too , removing plunder will fix like 60% the problem in there xD

Just learn to adapt from it. Think of ways to change your current situations instead of QQing about how things work. I have been on both side, so i do know how you feel when being plundered. Life is never fair, so learn to adapt.

Why all good games fail eventually is due to the pressures from the community to keep asking for NERFS. Work around the patches instead of QQing for nerfs.

If you just want freebies, quit this game and go play farmville.

Plunder/Convoy system won't be removed.

What needs to happen is that plunderers keep the damage from Support and not heal when you come out to face them. Which makes the support system useless.
