Turn entire Eternal world into a factional PVP Zone…
Let clans form factions and control areas/cities of the map.
No seasonal powers.
Each faction must have at least 1 of each class.
Clans/individual players up for PVP blood mark themselves
Allow for instance control to maximum 24 (up to 12v12)
Allow set-time tournaments
Broad factions are Good, Neutral or Evil. Bonus points for role-playing
Server reset aligned with season dates
Let the chaos begin!
Why not do this for both seasonal and eternal but have a PVP Always On checkbox? Maybe they could just put them in an isolated shard or whatever to make this work too.
Then PvP flagged players would pair with like-leveled characters, and they wouldn’t enjoy that - thus it wouldn’t be used.
Proof? See what WoW did with PvP open world.
I mean pvp is never going to be fair out in the open world so bleh
it’s more about adding a potentially fun aspect rather than fairness.
And the exit doors would open wide.
Guarantee me a mythic every minute I remain in that zone and I’d still never set foot in it. PvP is, and always should be in games like this, a bone thrown to the minority of people who actually enjoy it.
If I were the devs, there’d be no PvP of any kind, ever. Waste of resources.
My opinion as well, but I won’t begrudge those that want PvP as it exists now. I just don’t suport expandimg it.
Much like how I feel about Dark Citadel.
Introduce new cosmetics? Sure. Actively develop new implementations? Naw… unless player engagement warrants it.
