    Ahoy Pirates,

    We are thinking about a change of the buff runtime. There two options which we could implement and both would mean that a buff is just used, when you are logged in.

    • Option 1:
      • Just when you log in, one day is removed from the runtime. It doesn´t matter how long your session is, 3 minutes or 8 hours and how often you log in during a day, one day of the buff is removed.
        • Example 1: You have 7 days of King´s legacy, you log in in the morning for some minutes and one day King´s legacy is removed, then you log in again in the noon, there are still 6 days Kings legacy left.
    • Option 2:
      • Another possibility would be that your buff is active and the buff runtime is “gaming time”. As soon as you log off, it stops and restarts with the next login.
        • Example 2: You have 7 hours of King’s legacy, you log in and play for 2 hours. The buff runtime stops and when you log in again, there are 5 hours left.
    In both of these cases, the runtime of the buffs will be adjusted (reduced) depending on which option will be chosen in the end. Basically, this means that the use of the buffs is more adapted to your gaming mode.

    Thank you for voting :)

    I picked option 2 and here is my reason. There are days where I don't have time to play at all, but I still login to the sea to collect the daily bonus. Option 1 would see my buffs reduced a day, like they are now, but since you plan to reduce they buff payout, I would run out even sooner. Option 2 would would let me use the entire buff and even though its smaller, it would likely last more calendar days than they currently do. If the length of the buffs is reduced too much for either option, then its better to just leave them alone.

    I think it should be option 2 as they should only run while you logged on

    i will go for option 2 but dont reduce the runtime for the buffs,make the buffs in a way that players can stack the ammount of buffs for limited time,for example like 1month max
    if u stack buffs for like a month and u still receive buffs from like maybe monthly login bonus,instead of adding it to your 1month stack u get compensated with maybe pearls,crowns or maybe crystalls
