ok kids here is an idea

Ok how about instead of farming boss's we have a pvp reward system?

It would work something like this and would replace the boss drops.

you would get a drop from the person you kill that would go according to the lvl of the oponant.
such as say a lvl 36 kills a lvl 40 the lvl 36 would get say 6 tolkens they would drop just like the gold does now right to your inventory and they would stack in like 1000 in a stack.

then there would be a store in a special place where you could use these and maybe some gold too to buy epic items.

there would be a 15 lvl limit on these so that if a 40 killed a lvl 24 they get no tolken but a lvl 25 they would get 1

also if you try killing the same person more then say 10 to 15 times in a reset you would get less tolkens every 5 kills so say it is lvl 40 vs 40 you would get 4 per kill but say you kill him 5 times then on the 6th you would only get 2 then on the 11th kill only 1 then more then 15 none.

we believe we can get this to work.

what do you guys and gals think?

I am making this a poll and please post comments and no friggen flames or I deal with you myself!

I would like everyone to open up all the possible pros and cons of this before we go on ahead.

I guess I said it the wrong way lol. I'd like everyone to share their ideas of pros and cons first before I share mine. Sorry I'm just so tired,I just got home from work.

You should make a link to my topic on the subject (Epic Weapons), some decent things said there are worth mentioning here.

I think this is good, but there are some times, speccially on work days, that there aren't many people online, thats when farming would come in handy to keep the player occupied - as it is if i find no one to fight i'll just log off, and chances are the next guy is going to do that as well.

Shillow I like the idea... but almost all persistent on-line communities you get valuable items from boss drops and farming is half the battle. I like the idea of a pvp reward system too. I think the best option is a mix between both. As far as the tolken items, can they picket pocketed?

10-15 times? how much is the cooldown timer to prevent exploiting?

and maybe give 1 tolken every time you take lvl 10, 13, 16, 19, 21, 24, 27, 30 so people go lvl at least if less pvp going on. 8 tolken if lvling 10-30. lvl1-10 and 30-40 shouldnt get tolken

people should lvl and not farm if they are bored so you can pk them

why not 1-10 and 30-40?

because you shouldnt get tolken just by killing zombies (lvl1-10) that a high lvl spawn for you. and no tolken if a lvl40 help you at minos (30-40).

I think that would be great too but how about These tokens for both pvp and so bosses are still worth while make bosses drop certain amount of tokens dependent on diffculty .

One problem for seen is players using multiple accounts or with friends to take turns killing each other for tokens.

that is just what i was going to say like make it where factions dont get tokens for killing there own and the like.

i love this idea but i think it is to easly exploited

but in all i say yes if we can keep ppl from exploiting it.

it will not be permitted within factions. and we could tie the kill count per reset to cdkey??

make it within 2 level difference to prevent abuse

I already suggested a system for this before kids

Code:

LvlOfPCKilled^2 LvlOfKiller
------------------ x -------------------- rounded down
LvlOfKiller^2 4^(40/Lvlofkiller)

Lvl 40 killing a lvl 40 would get 10 points
Lvl 40 killing a lvl 30 would get 5 points
Lvl 40 killing a lvl 20 would get 2 points
Lvl 40 killing a lvl 13 would get 1 point
Lvl 40 killing < lvl 13 would get 0 points

Lvl 39 killing a lvl 40 would be 9 points

Lvl 30 killing a lvl 35 would be 6 points

Lvl 20 killing a lvl 40 would get 5 points
Lvl 20 killing a lvl 20 would get 1 points

Lvl 1 killing a lvl 40 would get 0 points
Lvl 1 killing a lvl 5 would get 0 points

Lowbie PvP would be worth points, but only a few. No insane amounts of points for killing higher levels, and system is based on 40 pvp so killing with < lvl 40 will get you less points than killing with 40s. To prevent exploiting add a 5 minute timer before killed PC's are worth points again.

And imho, weapons should stay farm-only. I think this honor system should give prizes similar to kewpies. Perhaps 200 points is worth one kewpie? There are never any tournaments so the chances to get rare dmg stones or spell stones are next to 0. This would give the same effect. Maybe add a nice factor that in a spree kills are worth 1.5 times normal point value.
