I want to be clear: I love the degradation on it.

I just don't think 3 RL hours is enough. There are many DM events that take a lot longer. Take the semi-recent attack on Guldorand. It took way longer than 3 RL hours.

I think 6 is long enough to last through almost every DM event, while not being persistent.

While I haven't tested them during an event yet, I felt that the planned 24 hours was much more reasonable. 3 hours or even 6 means you have to have them stored in inventory and plant them right when your defense begins. Planning for their use becomes just that much more of a headache.

I've commented on this exact same thing, myself, before. While I think a full day might be a bit much, 6 RL hours of time would be a perfect, happy medium.

I'll just say I'm not against increasing the time it lasts, as long as the CP scales with it as well. Up to an admin otherwise.
