I agree. I think for adventure with as many new players as their is it needed to be taken away. One well placed Npc cannon shot or Lava slamming the anchor can make or break someones day when you're learning still. The game was alot easier when a large chunk of us started playing and it still had its challenges.

But to be honest as far as Arena, i dont think it bothers me one way or another. Im only 26 in seadogs. So i haven't been playing arena as much as other people but I think our anchor has been hit once in arena? I just haven't seen it make that big a diffrence in arena. Most games we were in we won by giant point diffrence. So something like this doesnt seem like all that big of deal. Like i said though I havent played Arena as much as some people so good chance im wrong lol
