Veteran "Auras"

I only just realized that there's no 1100 or 1200 day veteran rewards yet. Maybe a +20% to +30% experience buff that applied to teammates and team-up-mates could be included? Something programmed like an aura without a range limit, though that'd mean the veteran would still have to be in the same instance as the rest of his/her team for everyone to benefit. This way, it might give more incentive for veterans to help new players with missions and such, either using level 40s or using alts. Especially if the experience "aura" doesn't stack with others who have the same aura, so there'd be no additional benefit for having several veterans that have the same aura (other than multiple players in a team that theoretically already know what to do). It should still stack with other Exp buffs, including the one for teaming up in the first place.

Other ideas for veteran auras might be other non-combat buffs. Resources, or a chance for Questionite to drop from mobs, or higher item drop chances, or higher item quality chances, or whatever. I wouldn't recommend buffs that affect combat, though ... if only to avoid the cries of "foul!" from people who don't have the buffs as well as to avoid PvP balancing issues.

There's other ideas I have, but I won't clutter up this post with them. This is just the idea that's probably the easiest to implement, as well as one that can potentially benefit everyone leveling a character in the game (not just the veterans themselves).

    There will be no more veteran rewards after 1000 days.

    Well. On the one hand, that's kinda disappointing. On the other hand, it makes some sense, since 1100+ days is over 3 years, and ten different steps/tiers of veteran rewards is a lot already.

    Still, I'd like to see a Veteran Aura happen either way. The 100, 200, 300, and 400 Days experience boosts to level 15 could be converted into Veteran Auras, for example.

    I think there's already a small xp boost until 15 for 100 and 200 days. However, it only applies to the account themselves.

    I say stuff and I say things, sometimes together but only when I'm feeling adventurous.

    I'm @blu8 in game! :D

    maybe something cosmetic too... some extra auras for looks, or options to put them on these.

    i think the graphics would be nice. how about cursed eyes at 1200 days and something like the prerelease head aura for 1500 days? at 1800 days: a supermag that works in combat and gives a 10% bonus to the base character. (like the drifter vehicle bonus)

    I love that Supermag idea, but it should already be like that without having to play for so long. Or maybe they could add a new device to the gladiator event that works like the Serum in the MI Crisis. I loved being so huge, and combined with my supermag and giant japanese robot suit(til my teammates started fighting) I was HUGE!! I'll have to do it again and have someone take screenshots.
    @Jeighsun in-game. Feel free to add me!
