Suggestion perms to delete radars

[opelafer]

currently, there is no way you can move your radar once its placed.
That also means you can’t move the radars placed by someone else after claiming that specific territory.
I don’t know if there is a reason why we cant delete radars, but if there isn’t I hope you can consider my suggestion and give us permission to delete radars (with a 20h cooldown on replacing it because that is also the cooldown when it actually gets ganked)

The reason we do not allow it is to prevent cheese. Radars store a percentage of the shards and conquest points spent on them. If players could delete them, they could reduce/prevent other people from gaining shards by taking them out. If a town felt they would lose them any way they could just delete their radars and then the shards would be lost to the ether and not be obtainable by the enemy. This is the same reason radars now remain when a tile is neutralized.

The only way we could do moving radars is by allowing you to place the new one and once that happens it deletes the old one and transfers the stored shards in it. However, it seems like a lot for something that doesn't seem like a massively useful/important thing. May I ask what the main benefits/reasons players would want to move radars are?

well, in my case its next to a town and it was previously their territory, so they can just constantly ping it and its like impossible to defend it since they can kb you in their town easily and theyre not destroying it on purpose so i cannot move it to somewhere else.
In general I think it may not be very important but its annoying having to message a guardian to remove it for me when I could also just remove it by myself.

Also for the shards, it’s just dropping two power shard cores and if I wanted to replace I would have to spend 200 shards on it anyway.
Of course I see how this could be unfair for the enemy since they can’t obtain the rewards from it, but if I never placed a radar there you can also say that its not fair I cant move it to somewhere else

We don't delete them when asked anyways and Guardians do not have the ability to delete them, so this is not relevant. The only time we've deleted radars is when they are in a bugged state.

have someone else destroy the radar outside the alliance when the other town is offline?

I think being able to move radars might be useful if it's changing hands and you'd like it nearer to your town, however they are meant to be a liability for towns. It also mixes things up in wilds pvp when you can't always have the best spot for them, but that's just my two cents.
