For each year a player has been on the server,maybe a 25-50% bump up on the current stats to Elder Buff .
Thanks for the suggestion! We really appreciate you taking the time to share your ideas please keep them coming!
An enhancement like this would definitely be a cool way to recognize and reward long-time players, and we absolutely agree that it's important to show appreciation for the veterans who have supported the server over the years. Your dedication helps shape the heart of the community.
That said, we also have to carefully consider gameplay balance. Elder players, thanks to their experience and deep understanding of the mechanics, already tend to have an edge in many situations. Adding a scaling buff on top of that could unintentionally widen the gap between newer and veteran players, possibly creating an environment that feels discouraging for those just joining the game.
Still, the core idea celebrating long-term commitment is something we’re very interested in. We’ll definitely keep this in mind as we explore more ways to honor and reward our veteran players without impacting overall balance.
Thanks again for the thoughtful post!
