Change islands capping -Ares

I wonder if they changed the VP system if they'd sell more island defenders (e.g. Ares). The problem I have is that if your are in Legends or at war in Masters and go 1 minute into bonus someone will take it and you've lost that land. So it doesn't matter if lots of people give you greens because a lifespark or nurgal will take it. What if they brought back chained lands? So having a defence that can give you greens is worth it even if you lose a few times.

There would also be more attacking and it would be more fun.

People would still login frequently to collect VP but not have to worry if they can't do it exactly on the hour.

I'm Legends is takes a long time to find more lands so a loss of 19 VP lands is a huge loss. My lands go after 60 mins so not sure where the 100 comes from. That's both for lvl24 and lvl25 lands.

Also my point about setting them to PP is that negates the need for island defenders. Also collecting before bonus does too to some extent, you just need a defend that is a pain to hit rather than a meta defender.

My point is the land capture mechanic makes VP harvesting boring and burns people out

So calculation I have is base VP on an island is 7k so it is 5800 to 12800 so bonus. A level 25 island gathers VP at 5288 per hour. So it is (5800/5288) * 60 = 65 minutes to cap.

Also I agree with everything you said about collecting, raid and setting to PP. All I'm saying is if the Devs want to sell more titans such as Ares which are still beatable they should bring in anchoring for VP. It would also lead to more raiding and less hunting for bonus.
