    Mind if we also post brainstorms? I've got a hankering for a remake of the Annals in TT.
    b:cute The world may be small, but it is far from known.

    Why the rage? It's a draining emotion.

    Me: DaValentine (veno), Jaceraie (mystic), etc etc etc b:chuckle

    Me and some friends did some brainstorm this week and we tried to come with the " perfect quest", one who could please everyone and ,if possible, bring some old players back.

    It work like this :
    1- Red announcement: "Blacksmiths,Tailors and Merchants of Archosaur are organizing a contest at centre of Archosaur, go immediately if you wish to participate.
    2-Beneath Head Hunter npc they are reunited and,once you are the leader of an squad, you can take the quest with any of them.
    3-once the 15min for subscrition is passed players are teleported to squads VS squads battles, first team to have all players killed loses the battle.(tower contest from NW map?)
    4-Winning team waits for new battle ,and can see progress by pressing an icon.
    5-Repeat until theres only 1 team left.

    PARTICULARITY: IT WILL BE MOSTLY SKILL CHAMPIONSHIP
    1-Players will NOT be allowed to use green itens(TT), yellow(mold,g16 etc) and red. Only white/blue/purple itens forged with open map mats, or bought on npc. Hence the name ORDINARY.
    2-IT WILL BE BROADCASTED!! Every player who died/left championship will have a chance to see the final battle.See next topic to know how is that possible.


    ISSUES AND POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS
    1-For things to work smoothly , either the number of squad would have to be 2,4,8,16,32,64... or some teams would have to battle 1 time more than others. To solve that i belive there could be some battles with 3 teams against each other.
    2-Refines :Should it be limited of totaly forbidden for the championship?
    3-BROADCASTING: To avoid a very lagged room with 500 players inside,; once you lost championship, you can choose going to the room where the last battle will happen BUT, you will be buffed with a particular buff witch increases your Sthealth lvl by 500/reduces awareness ll by 100 and also transforms you onto something who cant cast spells. Yep, you will basically just watch.


    PROS:
    1-it will please : Cash Shoppers (therefore PWE) as they would be compelled to make a new set (3 stars with nice stats) and we know mats ain't cheap.We have there 20% of today's players.
    2-Friends from facs who don't have many CS, as they will have an fair chance to have fun on pvp durin this event.(75% of nowadays players)
    3- It will bring VERY OLD PLAYERS, as in the beginning of pwi (2008) the power of one's equipment would be measured by how many purple 3 star itens(n molds) that person would have. We have there an opportunity to double player database.
    4- it will please noobs as they will have a chance to see how pros fight.

    CONS:

    1-IT's A VERY DIFFICULT THING TO CODE.
    2-Im sure the next 999 posts will have more cons, ppl here on forums are pro at pointing thatb:chuckle

    While I really like the idea you have, it may be a bit too grand for what we're trying to do here haha. That said, keep up the good ideas, because we can still use these as suggestions and maybe one day get the implemented!

    pan gu loves cash shoppers as much as he loathes pure farmers. that's why he cursed me with the lowest luck-index possible. my weapon needed 21 recasts for those meh adds, and the r9 ring refine ate over 10k mirages before i capitulated and orbed it from 0 to +11. you won this time pan gu! b:sad
