I know that you're releasing the summer event, so this is bad timing on my part, but...

 

I'd love to have world events where the whole community has to come together to solve a problem and is rewarded for how much effort they've put into it.

 

For instance, a strange meteor has fallen from the sky and is releasing a caustic gas.  The community needs to uses pickaxes to break it away before all humanity is killed. Maybe this meteor will randomly spawn creatures that can be killed for a weapon upgrade reward for 24 hours or a 2%-5% permanent upgrade damage bonus. (Like spawn demented developers who attack us for a little revenge and we have to fight them back to their planet--we all know a zombie L3fty or body-snatched Anakiro might like to beat the crap out of some of us).  If the community succeeds at the end of the week, they're rewarded with awesomeness.  If they fail, I guess nothing lol.

 

That's a crappy example but without stealing ideas from other games, it was the best I could come up with off the top of my head.  One game had a giant cake that the whole community had to eat.  It took a week or two to actually eat the whole thing.  In the end, the whole world was awarded double experience for a weekend and those that did the most work, were rewarded with extra prizes.  

 

This would differ from seasonal events in that the whole community has to work together and not necessarily in groups, just side by side, working together.  It wouldn't be like the hulking troll where whoever hits first gets the reward.  This is a major world event.  No tank, no healer needed, no groups needed. And all levels are invited to participate.

Runescape already done the meteor. You'll have to make it giant glob of plasma from space or something.

oh lol.  how about if every single boss was released on TA due to a seismic earthquake? Neither crafters nor pvpers would be safe...

More Like Void ports open across the land of Eldevin Defited boss close portal, All those help kill boss get reward after final portal Close, all that help in event based on number boss killed get bonus reward.

 

Lvl range based on area 10 - 49 All lvl range have chance fight gain some thing.

 

If portal's - boss are not killed boss go on rampage Gain Enraged stacks.

 

Other things can be done, Like TA option one area ports spawn around TA.

Fun world events would be sweet. It'd also be nice if there was maybe some kind of a skilling event.

That elemental thing in TA hurt... if you were near his path... he'd come after you haha. I remember getting one hitted.  But I was like level 15... roaming around TA doing the only daily quest there was... those chests.

Thanks for the suggestion, we've actually done a bunch of work on a non-seasonal event that'll be released in the near future, but this is certainly a great idea, it's a little similar to Fallen Swords global events and it's something we can certainly look at in the future.

Chels I love the concept and as Mowjawk says, it is something quite similar to the FS global events so I really really like the idea: 10/10

 

I wouldn't want a new metoer falling from the sky however, just the crater in othalo spawning some alien killer midgies or some such (kill them or gather them quest).

 

Or a new void portal rip with nastiliy coloured new kaur launching an invasion (kill them or gather them quest).

 

Or that crazy mage in the arcan sanctom (insert here name here please, I have obliterated it from my memory after she annoyed me during here ridiculous questlines) has cast a new crazy spell and unleased loads of wisps that need to be collected (kill them or gather them quest)

 

There are loads of fun ideas that go in here so really hope this one makes a (near) future world event (though will review how next weeks one goes as I am looking forward to that too to see what suprises are in store )
