illusionz: All things considered, now that the price of guard units has been adjusted, castles are "doable"; however, I would like to see another update. The 24 hours limit on re-entering the castle is extreme. Players risking the loss of gear should be able to continue that risk or re-enter once the threat is gone. I also think the 20-second hit limit is extreme. That means you only get one shot at killing someone. Not many of us can kill someone in one shot
Basically, what was Hardcore PvP has been reduced to One Shot Kill or Come back in 24 hours.
