but if you play an MMO and after a year of loot you loose everything, the first thing you think about is to rage-quit the game...

Then you are playing the wrong game from beginning.

Alos remember, if you are that terrified of loosing your stuff, you can play on Arboreus and be "safe". Occasionally take adventures on other worlds, and even if you are killed there, you still return to Arboreus after, where your home is waiting for you, safe.

I'm not worried about the challenge, as punishing as it is, I just don't have the time. I won't start fresh, when I can barely play few hours a day. That's why I won't play on Thartaros for sure. I just wonder if you're not asking for Syndesia to become as mush hardcore as Thartaros would probably already be.

I think that being able to loot the banks when you take a town should be part of the spoils of war.

That would work only in games where there is periodically a full reset for anybody, but if you play an MMO and after a year of loot you loose everything, the first thing you think about is to rage-quit the game...
That would mean there won't be guild competition, just a big one owning the game.

Getting a city should net you, the victor, some tangible rewards.

You won the siege, the town, town resources, and you'll slow down competitors. That's ENOUGH!
At last, you probably deserve an additionally full-generated prize.

Rember that MMO doesn't expect any "winner", just competition... and too much of it become toxic!

Unfortunatly, this is where malicious bots and hacks begins.
Real money is always a nest for toxic gamestyle.
We don't live in a respectful and mature world.

I don't want to be mean, just blunt; this is just what I think...
