As stated in the title.

How would you feel about having a Duelling-Option?

I personally believe duelling between fellow players should be an obvious feature in any MMO. However, duelling in normal zones and Protector's Enclave would get very messy - With both performance and FX-effects going off everywhere! Not something you really want in a well-populated City of Peace.

So therfor i recommend a zone-map that you can travel to only to duel fellow players, or perhaps if you request to duel another player - you will both get the option to procceed with the duel and be teleported to an Arena Instance-map (This should work as an instance with it's unique ID, making sure players are truely alone in 1v1) where you can duel in peace and quiet.

Remember, i find it very important that the duel must be requested - FFA (Free For All) would only bring a PvP massacre, and wouldn't really be duelling.



Summary: Duels 1v1 should be available in a Duelling Zone. Either you will be teleported there along with your opponent, or you can travel to an open Duelling Zone - where players can request duels against eachother.

This is just a crude-written summary of what i hope something similair may appear in the future. I understand that this is easier said than done and i have all respect for the developers out there. Post your ideas, thoughts and comments below! I would love to hear them.

    Yes! i want 1vs1 or 2vs2 so bad, i dont care if they would be currently imba or what, thats the pvp style i like the most!

    IMHO the best would be adding a queue for 1vs1 like the one for domination, with an instanced zone...

    That would be more of an arena system, considering you cannot chose your opponent. Therefore i think a similair system has to be drawn out until they managed to balance the classes abit more.

    And if they manage that, yes. Then it could be a fun PvP option, as long they don't give it an advantage with items that you can only get from doing that kind of arena system.

    Duelling 1v1 overall i feel is definetly needed. No rewards, items, points. Just a game against your friend.

    An open PvP zone would also be fun, and it would reduce the lag in Protectors because all of the TR's would just live there...:D

    True! I would like Gauntlgrym to be some kind of open PvP-Zone when there is no event active. But since there is two different maps for Luskan and Delzoun i'm not sure if that would work.

    Good idea, though.
