Civil war has broken out among the Umazen. Side with the Rebels or Loyalists before this war consumes the Umazen people! There will be Top War Win prizes for both sides, with the winning side having all their rewards Mastercrafted.



JanusHoW -> RE: =AQ= Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 15:04:18)

And we're getting Blue Scrolls of Doom. Something going on?



The Wizard -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 15:05:06)

I would like to point out that picking a side because of what rewards are likely seems very meta-gamey and Cray has written this great story to pose an actual ethical quandary. I feel we should try to respect the hard work and actually try to pick sides that our characters agree with ethically instead.



Kay Oh -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 15:12:55)

If you would like to join in a community made competition for this War, feel free to join our War League discord. You can sign up to be part of the Loyalists or Rebels and a chance to win prizes as well (artix pts). Peep the sig [;)]



J9408 -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 15:14:28)

But would if the rewards are the only things you care for? Not for gameplay aspects, but more like a greedy character?

From the looks of the intro, I get the feeling there is a third unknown party behind the scenes.



The Hollow -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 15:26:05)

The mighty Captain Rhubarb has slain the war bug!



Kay Oh -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 16:28:40)

@Hollow
The top 25 rewards are separate for each side right? So 50 people should win the Umazen armour depending on side?



The Hollow -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 16:45:22)

The top war win rewards are separate for each side. 25 will win the Umazen Prime Armor, 25 will win the Umazen Hoplite Elite Armor. Guardians can earn top war win rewards from both sides if they want to compete on both sides of the war.



PharaohLaus -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 17:29:50)

Is the war in a special place? Can't seem to find it.



J9408 -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 18:11:01)

^Today's Event!>Umazen Civil War III. Top left corner next to "The Void", it sort of blends in with the other Umazen parts.

So we can fight for both? That sounds incredibly difficult.



Lord Markov -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 18:18:41)

Are estates restricted for this war or something? I got some kills in earlier on mine but now it says that there are now active wargrounds when I go to use my Portal.



afterlifex -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 18:20:34)

^ I believe so yes.



Uskius -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 18:27:38)

*insert gripe about pack Zzotts slowing down the pace* This has been one of my favorite quests lines in a while. But I'm wondering due to some of the dialogue- is the player's words in part determined by previous quests?



J9408 -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 18:27:47)

Umazen Hoplite Warriors are part of the Rebel forces right? I chose to fight for the rebels, but for some reason the battles bring up Umazen Hoplites.



Lorekeeper -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 18:42:19)

Not all women are loyalists, and not all men are rebels. Only part of the Excelsior Guard has defected, and the rebellion featured soldiers from the first time you met Iraklis. As a result, you have a smaller chance of encountering rebel soldiers and loyal hoplites.

The rebel soldiers reflect this in the description, but a writer error kept the same from applying to loyalist hoplites.

Someone should get that Cray fellow to shape up.



Drak -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 20:17:54)

I had to stop doing waves before i end up wanting to compete for top 5 again and make it a priority, goodluck to the warmongers



AliceShiki -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 21:24:32)

*pats Cray-kun's head* You worked hard, don't worry too much about it~

Now to find time to actually participate in the war... *shivers*



CHAIML -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 21:26:17)

Why are the estates restricted?



Lorekeeper -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 21:34:27)

Estates are restricted so that it's participation and not ability to spend Z-tokens on supplying one's armies that decide the outcome of what is effectively a competitive event. While this is only a mitigation of a potential issue, it serves as a deterrent to the easiest way of causing it.



AliceShiki -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 21:45:04)

Thank you so much for restricting estates!!! *hugs*

Btw, even on low graphics the war is extremely laggy to me... Not sure if it's the fault of Firefox consuming more RAM right now because they force multi-processing (I have it open while warring on the launcher) or if it's the background...

If it's the background's fault though, any chance it could be made lighter?

Edit: Okay, just finished the 2nd fight and suddenly it got a lot better... I think what is actually laggy are the Umazen Hoplites, maybe they have too many textures on them or something? Fight is going on normally against an Umazen Warrior.
Edit 2: Zzots also slow the game down, though less than Hoplites... Not sure, didn't find a Zzot pack yet to compare.



afterlifex -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 23:05:30)

^ At first I was like " what is he talking about nothings wrong?!" ..then "yep fps dropped".

That said at least for me it was solved by A) Dropping to Low setting OR B) not running it in full screen.

Full screen:

Vs

Small:

https://gyazo.com/c8eb8f707c79326b96f773ff965c8cbb

That's me going out of the way to make it lag however (just sitting still).

Actually attacking on high full screen(normal set up) I get 12 to 15 at least. If I change any of the variables it is normally fine.

It's got to be that chain mail imo.



J9408 -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/18/2019 23:59:28)

I am experiencing lag as well. It becomes slow when fighting the Hoplites and Amazon. I don't have any problems with the other monsters.



Kay Oh -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/19/2019 0:52:01)

@Hollow

The war list only shows one side https://www.battleon.com/aq-warzone.asp (It was showing both earlier)

Well done. However, without estates, kills will take forever to accumulate. Since release time today, the leading side has only accumulated 14973/500000 (3%), with a big chunk from early estate dumps before you guys turned it off. I'm not sure if you accounted for that unless you want this war to go on for a while [8|]



AliceShiki -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/19/2019 1:36:17)

@ALX I'm afraid it might be an issue of your computer being better than mine... I have run this game in Low Res for as long as I remember and the lag is still very heavy on Zzott packs and Hoplite Packs.

I could minimize it to an extent by drastically lowering the size of my screen, so now the lag is manageable... Still, I continue experiencing lag atm.

As for how small my screen is right now? Well... This small: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/371074123138465794/601647728560308234/Super_Small.jpg

Would be nice if the Zzotts and the Hoplites could get their textures simplified or something... Well, with the super small screen the lag is manageable though~



Rafiq von den Vielen -> RE: Umazen Uprising Finale - Civil War (7/19/2019 1:50:34)

@Alice: I know the issue of Zzotts killing the FPS, they have been doing so on my old computer aswell. Even on small screens and low res. The Hoplites don't feel laggy at all to me though...

However since I'm using my new computer to play, I don't have lag issues at all when fighting Zzotts. (I generally play High Res, full screen via launcher).
