Hello again, suggestion here is simple as the GCW grind takes time, a long time, and if someone is relatively new to the server its (20 years later) a pain in the ass. I would love to see GCW diminishing returns adjusted, most if not all officer ranks require 2 weeks each to rank up, yes the 50k tokens are amazing, it would just be awesome to be able to reach the General goal in a more timely manner.

In no way am i suggesting a week 1 insta general ROFL stomp fest, but more so a steadier increase, in the event someone isn't able to earn GCW the setback is crazy.

Example, i joined the server beginning of Dec 2025, last week hit general on 2 toons. 4 1/2 months, i know i know people are going to say get gud, you suck haha grind moar newb n shit and yes i missed some weeks and the set backs are a thing. Ive not been hit with the decay, but i hear its pretty punishing as well lol.

Its the little things that can make a big impact.

Thank you for the suggestion and for sharing your experience with the GCW system.

I understand where you’re coming from. The GCW grind is intended to be a long-term progression system, but the time investment, especially with setbacks, can feel punishing for newer or returning players trying to catch up.

I personally agree that there may be some room to slightly reduce the time per rank, potentially bringing it closer to around one week per rank. This could help make progression feel more consistent and also make it easier for players returning from a break to get back into things without feeling too far behind.

We’ll pass this feedback along to development for review. Appreciate you taking the time to put this together.
