I have had a lv. 10 i abandoned in server na5 for over a week
Going to take longer then a week for it to disappear.....
What are you talking about after Server Maintenance Cities that are dumped disappear
This has been happening in my server as well. I haven't bothered to make any however I know a few in my alliance have and they are still there. Its been a while now. As far as I can tell, this happened after the change to the HC army deployment.
they should keep it like this lol
shh keep it quiet. i have like 40 lvl 5's by my hc
Level 5's? Really. You must have a tiny little army. Better be glad you're not on my server or you'd be saying you built 40 lvl 5's around my HC.
Actually, I thought they didn't wipe npcs either, until they wiped about 10 lvl 5's that I built :P (NA23)
They also wiped inactive players too, I don't know... maybe they just wipe them randomly or something?
I built a 10 near my city on na20 with plans of conquering
But decided to conquer 1 near my other city
Its been nearly 2 weeks now and the 10 is still there
Ive tried building lower lvl npcs but they disappear
Could it be that the higher lvls stick around for longer?
Guys, you've been able to make permanent NPCs that survive server reset in Age II for quite some time. I did a search on these very forums two months ago and found the information I needed to do it. Ever since, I've had a collection of 10-15 new 5s, 8s, 9s and 10s around me. It's not a cheat, its not an exploit, it just requires an understanding of how the servers operate...which somebody much, much smarter than me figured out a while ago.
You need a free city slot (obviously), and a teleport, the ability to capture NPC cities, and patience. That's pretty much it. The only thing that costs anything is the teleport, which most people already have a number of by doing quests and from the wheel.
I'm pretty sure a google search will still find the post, I know that's how I found it.
Just FYI
this method works yes.....but the thread is about player built npc's on flats that never had an npc there when the server was created...... these normally get removed and a little clarification on the time scale that these npc stick around for would be very handy.
i also have noticed player built npc hanging around while normally they get removed, i have built one next to a city on 2 servers to see how long they stay there.
well, i was told not to bother building a 5 to farm as it would vanish on next server reset. well, what tosh! 3 weeks on there still there!Including a few 10's to test, want to know how? pm me and no, no need for teles or other stratagems!
Why dont you just tell them how to do it?
OK here it is
The server only keeps NPC's that are server made, thus any NPC next to you that was server made wont be wiped out. So what do you do?
Have a free city slot, Conquer a nearby server madeNPC and teleport it somewhere randomly. After that, wait for the empty flat to reach the lvl u want, when reached, build a city and abadon it on that flat, then bam!, a permanent NPC
Last night, they wiped a lvl 10 right next to my city, i was in between a 10 and 12 and now i gotta make another one. >.< so annoying, wipe the innactives, not the npcs in my opinion
well evony had changed it so they stayed but like all good things they dont last forever
as for me i wont be spending anymore money on this because its too unreliable
they didnt evony never tells any 1 about the changes
where have you been lol
Then how do you know they changed things to stop NPC clearing and then reversed themselves?
How do you know it wasn't just Evony decreasing the frequency of sweeps?
You don't know without an announcement. You just assumed a change happened, but were incorrect in your assumption.
Thank you for proving my argument. ;)
well if you can prove that they decreased sweeps then do so
i would be much happier if you were right i like being able to farm npcs
do they go away on age I too?
What's the point in having 10 gazillion NPCs around to farm, if you want to play the sims they sell em cheap now for like 15 bucks. This is supposed to be a wargame.
Full disclosure... I do like not being able to lose all my cities I've spent time building due to someone who has more time to spend taking it over... however I believe they should have an adjustable tax rate option per city (or even player) so those who are suzerains can determine how much they pull from different colonies.
But if people are just allowed to build permanent lvl 10s and farm the crap out of them... where's the fun in that? hello Age 1
/2 cents
well they did change it because the npc i made last night is gone now
so they must be back to every 24h
Why make such a short thread about this?
they had it so they stayed for weeks then 2 days ago deleted all player made ones
I don't know how to make this anymore clear.
Every single night, when there is maintainece Evony MAY reset the player made NPCs.
Sometimes this will be after 1 night, sometimes the will be after 2 weeks. Sometimes it will be on days that start with a T, sometimes it will be on days that end in Y. Sometimes it will be on cold days, sometimes on rainy days. Sometimes on people's birthdays and even holidays. Sometimes on good days sometimes on bad days.
You will NEVER know ahead of time.
Consider youself to be informed and plan accordingly.
I won't be playing this game anymore...
If they delete npcs that i have made... If you are playing this game, you need to feed your troops and farming is the only way to do that.
stupid to remove npcs. the thing to remove is the inactive cities.
how do you feed troops if you cant farm npc.... the people running this game have a good game but keep screwing it up.
You do realize 1 billion food really wont last you that long if you have a big army, right?
When you're going through 400-600 million food a day 1 billion isn't a lot ;)
If you're going to get upset about food, then why not just get a bunch of colonies? If you get a bunch of colonies who have high food production you will have high food production - add that to a lvl 10 npc + 10 lvl10 lakes + political hero = a lot of food in that city.
However I do hate how much food I need for my troops, it is annoying that if I want to go away for the weekend I need to make sure every city has enough food that it wont run out.
You all should be using Heroic Companions on facebook by the way. Stacked up it gives you 50% off your troop food upkeep for 24hrs.
