I've thought of a way to make GvGing a real challenging aspect of the game by making 1 simple addition
This will
1) even the playing field for all guilds, big or small
2) allow players to wear their stamina gear offline knowing they are protecting in the event of a GvG conflict attack
3) Minimize needing perfect scores as the norm allowing least loses as goal to win
4) allow guild members to have more ability to protect targeted members
5) make GvGing challenging, minimizing preying on under- equipped targets and providing the sensation that you earned the Guild RPs
The addition is to add to Combat Sets " Load GvG Readiness Gear"
When a player attacks, PvP or GvG, this triggers the auto-load of the preset gear so on the 2nd-25th attacks the attacker will have to deal with the new gear setup. (The initial attack will be on the original gear of course)
Now the attacker must re-configure their buffs and/or gear if need be, to continue.
To load the gear, a player places items in a special slot located in Combat Sets and saves just like you normally would any combat sets, except at a cost, say 25K gold. Now the gear is loaded, so the player can switch to whatever gear they want to have equipped for general game play.
It would be best to have an on/off switch in case the player is leveling with specific gear and gets PvPed, causing the the auto-load of the GvG Readiness Gear..
Pros
1) With more and more players equipping stamina boosting gear to re-coop burned stamina from all these events
, it is open season for easy Guild RP farming. With this auto-load function in place, guilds will have to "work" for Guild RPs.
2) No matter what buffs you put on a player that is in stamina boosting gear, you can't protect them.
Yet a guild can buff-protect it's members if the player is properly equipped.
3) For Defending guilds, this simple addition will allow more strategic planning and involvement with member's participation to the guild as a whole.
4) For Attacking guilds, they still have the upper hand because they are prepared for retaliation and their members also have the Auto-load function.
Cons
1) If a player logs off with stamina boosting gear equipped, with the plan of accumulating massive amounts of bonus stamina and a PvPer strolls by and attacks you, triggering the auto-load, say bye bye to the bonus stamina. (hmm, what to do what to do?)
2) Just like any other items you have saved in Combat Sets, if 1 or more is removed from BP, they will not be loaded with the rest of the items.
3) Each time you load there will be a gold cost.
4)Guild leaders will have to police their members...have available PvP/GvG gear for their members to use and reminders to load their GvG Readiness Gear before logging off.
In conclusion
Which would be more exciting to you? Continue hitting the weak for perfect 50/50 scores or trying to defeat a well buffed and well equipped player(s) in an attempted to beat their guild's 27/50 score?
Having every member logged on 24/7 is impossible, yet with this simple addition every member can be virtually present 24/7.
