sailing will introduce new kinds of pvp and clanning events besides land pvp only. It has to be executed almost perfectly however, otherwise it will be waste of time dead content.
It will make clan pvp esports events much more entertaining and enjoyable.
sounds pathetically boring i was excited for a new skill but if this is all we have coming then save it. go back to drawing board and do some work because sailing is the last thing we need.
I like the idea of randomly generated islands for resources, similar to dungeoneering - but allow your ship to hold certain amounts of resources for you to take home with you.
