Authorlogic of AP
while (i think) I've understood some/most of the concepts in this game, i dont get why after lvl 5 we need to have a restriction on min AP?
Why cant we let people engage in PvP or GB with or without arts, as per their choice?
In most hunts, you prob. dont need arts!? So, whats the point. The only thing that i can think of is that the game developers dont want us to make too much gold, too fast (cos esseentially you end up sinking a lot of gold to keep those APs up!)
anyone got an answer?
AP rule had been made to enable the flow of money in the market.The recession in the world economy was also caused due to lack of money flow.

And,5 ap per combat doesn't costs you more than 50 gold if you use right arts.You get much more money from hunting and enrolling.And,admins say 5 AP then whay are you equipped with 8 AP don't "you" want to make money?
It's essentially to keep the game economy moving.

Arts bought = resources bought from mines = self sufficient economy.

The admins won't need to keep refilling mines as frequently.
Also it encourages smithing services.

Go for the cheapest AP (axe + shield in your case, repri sword + armour isn't needed). With Cheapest min AP battles,most hunts and quests and ambushes cover for the arts cost easily.
as you play more...given the existing hunt rules/thief guild codes/merc codes...you will NEED arts to complete any of those missions anyway.

So for me, the "ap rule" is meaningliness in it that even if it was NOT in place--I would still be using ap in every battle :)

nice...this economy angle is interesting...

however, doesnt it make more sense to give a choice?? I use more arts when fighting duels or MG quests which might be diff. and use min AP during hunts and other quests.

however, i currently dont have an option to not use arts on a hunt. After all arts are helping me win, maybe i might lose by not using. But that is a choice i should be allowed to make, no?
for drdre23:
Because given a choice, people wouldn't use any arts unless needed and the economy would suffer..

It also gets people to need to interact with the features of the game and not live by their lonesome self. People would need to talk, buy/sell and rent from other players.

The AP rule makes more sense than not having it. We don't want a game that everyone just concentrates on their own gameplay and not interact with others or just power-level without buying anything and thus not re-insert the gold he earns back into the economy.
