PvP DSEs

When I first went into Pi Canis as a Klingon I got a message to enter a DSE, I thought this was odd considering I was allies with the people threatening me, the Gorn. But I entered, and I figured we would be able to fight the feddies as they fight the DSEs! I thought that was a GREAT idea. To my disappointment this was glitch and nothing was in the DSE except a bunch of allied Gorn ships it was telling my to kill. (I couldn't kill them anyway) But that got me thinking, why not make Klingons able to go into DSEs? And we could fight the feddies and it would be a new PvP type.

Now, winner loser PvP may not work in this setting, because people have dailies to complete and whatnot, however, it could work like this.


Federation Objective
Destroy 9 groups of enemies/20Klingons

Klingon Objective

Destroy 30 Federation Ships


Something like that. This could help especially if Stahl Really is going to nuke DSE.
What do you think?

    One major problem there, any rank of player can currently enter a DSE.

    Imagine the results of one max rank BoP captain in there, especially as the Federation players would have to contend with the contents of the DSE as well in many cases (gorn, orion, klingon) while the Klingon players could get there gank on.

    That problem would need to be adressed.

    Well it could be the same as Kerrat, put same levels with same levels. And there are Borg in Kerrat also. Or, when a Klingon Enters DSEs it could replace a group of Contacts. Or something to that nature.

    you also have to deal with the fact that not many playing the game like to pvp so you’d need to have a flagging system of some sort (ya I fall into this category). Also the feddies would complain for the most part since lets be honest the strategy would be shadow the feddie till he enters combat and open up on him when he’s at his weakest, rinse and repeat.

    There are a lot of things that could be done that would make pvp more fun but I don’t anything will be done till they decide how to separate the pvpers and nonpvpers. what your suggesting in general some might really like and it could extend in both directions as in the Klingon's toons could go into fed space and deal with dse that targeting them specifically. Or being able to have some kinda flagged pvp encounters if you bump into a player from the opposing faction.

    I’ve always thought that large group pvp would be interesting like 3-5 groups of 5 players going at it. It would be fun if they had scheduled event for pvp. Like at a particular time every 2-3 days a mission would open up to attack/defend some fed or klingons base. maybe have it escalate over time. as in if you win the first part the next time would be a mission to go even farther into the other factions space if you lost it would just be the same mission again as in whoever wins gets to hold that ground. Maybe have it that after lets say two weeks or a month the the scores would be tallied up and the winners would get something like a title or a special patch to go on toons outfit or something.

    If Cryptic made a new Sector Space for the Warfront, then DSEs could be turned into PvP encounters. So any PvErs going into this zone would get a warning that entering DSEs would be at their own risk.
