If the Gatherer's response is "yes," explain to the Gatherer that the permit they have is no longer valid and that they will need to purchase a new gathering permit. If the Gatherer's response is "no," explain that the Gatherer needs a permit in order to gather in this area. In any case, inform the gatherer that I, as a *cough* "Gathering Auditor" just so happen to have a valid gathering permit available for sale...for a reasonable price. If the Gatherer refuses to purchase a valid gathering permit, threaten violence to induce purchase of a gathering permit. If the Gatherer shows resistance, wish the Gather the best of luck and immediately leave the area in search of another Gatherer to swindle.

When Ashes launches, it's guaranteed with 100% certainty that there will be someone who thinks it's a gankbox. And there will be someone who thinks it's nowhere close. So many people pissed because a gatherer almost got killed in a promo video. Didn't even get killed lol, just almost. The Holy Loggerman, the protected class, the most innocent of all mmo players. It's as if Intrepid released a video of a puppy being beaten to death. But everyone knew all along that was going to be a thing, or should have known. It's literally a feature of the game.

I think Corruption Clock only runs when you are actually on (so you can't just log out to dodge it and not face consequences for actions).

Maybe a friend with a very powerful bow. Dont be a sheep. Be a wolf and run in packs. If you're a lone wolf then you better be a bad mf. Too many ganks of unwilling players might get that corruption to a level where you lose your own gear on death. My squad cant wait to destroy corrupted players and there precious gear. The bounty hunters of the Wolf Squad will be hunting each and every one of you. We will take great pleasure in gutting you boys.

Don't plan to play without a active guild and as far as i know 90% of guilds want to inhabit some land as a vassal or main node leader. I'll be ganked sure, but who won't? It'd be funny to see pvp raids where people have built gear to lose using numbers. Does the system help curb just killing everyone, sure. But i think if your just doing it to see how many you can gank it is only as a form of notoriety. Do you really believe someone will risk their best gear while taking a day out harvesting? If you're that dumb maybe you deserve to lose it? Or i would assume you want a fight.. If your being ganked over and over in your own lands why would you remain with said guild(s). I totally suspect call to arms and roving groups of guilds making sure the lands are secure. If you can't secure your own lands how would you expect to attract people?
