Second Fortress: Bandit Den

/Pi · **Joined:** May 2007 **Posts:** 4592 **Location:**

History to a few folks here, but news to most, the next fortress after Jangan will be the Bandit Den. (With this info, there's a high chance that there will be fortresses set up for every trade checkpoint). This addition is the latest big update that kSRO received after the 100 cap.

Side Note: I've been lurking in the kSRO website, and I found some interesting things about the fortress. I'll post them later in the Future Update Thread.

Better still, DW with all its goldbots.

Then again, there might be more there on older servers for all I know.

hehe tax the gold bots, so they lose gold faster than they gain it. ^^

Actually it wouldn't be good since they are farming gold at green mobs, not spending so much pots. There will be less gold it is true so eventually there will be more goldbots :banghead:

Whattttt

I was assuming that all the fortresses would come between now and summer, and then the 90 cap around summertime like the euro update last summer

heh.. not so good idea to bring Hotan or DW fortress. Think about it, it just brings huge amounts of free money into the servers, making everything even more expensive.
But then again, there already is insane amounts of gold in servers (at least in the old ones).. guess we just have to wait and see

Its been confirmed by joymax that there will be one in every trade checkpoint.

um how does taxing help reduce bots? If anything it might make more people bot so they can get more gold to pay for the blasted taxes or so gold companies get more gold.

This makes little sense as the gold companies aren't the ones taking over the forts. The way this helps reduce bots is it makes gold farming in the areas with +20% taxes less effective. Not only are these bots paying the price of pots and npc gear, but they then have a 20% tax on it.

People aren't botting for gold to pay for these taxes. The taxes are minimal, really. They aren't even the price of an NPC'ed elixir. Only when many people over the period of a week or so start paying those taxes does it add up.
