Thank you so much for the questions you have answered! I, and I'm sure they too, are patient and not in any kind of rush to get our answers. We have multiple years of time for them to be anyways :P
I'll reword to say Castle instead of Node, I should have left out Node mention.
“What sort of player rating tool will the leader of the attacking side of a Castle Siege have to help them pick the strongest players (Level/Armor Rating/Achievements) to help them avoid picking guilds filled with dozens of level 1 alts?”
\\\\Additional context if needed to understand my question\\\\
Castle Sieges we have been told by Steven will have caps on player size. “Multiple guilds may register to attack and the first to complete the scroll and lay down the declaration may begin to have their members register to attack (there will be a cap)"- Steven Sharif, and the cap is related to technological limitations on what the server can handle, "The minimum goal is for 250x250 players to be on a single battlefield. It is hoped that this can be increased to 500x500 over time."
Once a Castle siege is declared any guild, even a brand new ten man guild with all noobs can apply as an attacker. When the leader who initiated the siege declaration goes to pick which players participate in this siege what tools will be available to them to ensure they pick the best attackers? If thirty different guilds sign up to attack, do I as the leader of the attacking side get to see all of their names on a roster and quickly apply a filter to rank them from highest skill point characters / gear scores to lowest? If an attacking leader cannot see any sort of detail then they run the risk of allowing in a bunch of lvl 1 griefer alts that take up his limited roster space.
That is not dead which can eternal lie. And with strange aeons even death may die.
