I think it is a workable idea under the following stipulations.

An initial cost, based on level.

Once you click enter safe haven, you are locked out of the game for 2 days or longer- as specified by player.

You can not have any auctions going (ya gotta plan ahead), no one can send you any items or gold.

Minimum of 2 days time while in the sanctuary, your stamina gain is dropped by 90% (xp gain per hour stays the same- you obviously aren't doing this to level).

This would be strictly for people that are going to be away from the game for several days minimum- and would not be a cost effective way of protecting gold.

'

Yeah that should be done to avoid guilds from using this to help make a gold storer and such.

I think the 90% is a bit sharp but yeah stamina gain should be lowered.

Being 'locked out' of the game might be a little much, maybe just unable to hunt because you might still need to do other things, you just can't make bank deposits or create auctions/secure trades. or send things to other players.

The reason for being able to still do other things would be as a guild leader you might need to check your logs and such and guild things that would vanish before you got back into the game.

Hell...why not?!?

The PvP system in this game is pure crap anyways, why not nerf it further?

It might even cut down on the whining...


yeah, cut down on the whining, indeed... i need a sanctuary from whining, actually.... :P

Just one old lady's opinion

Perhaps the best gold sinks I've read in a long time.

Plus, vacationers would like it:)

yes stongly yes it will be a great gold sink and it will not kill pvp it will only be good for people who keep attacking someone continuously for no reason, Which happens because some people seem to carry a grudge on their shoulder

NO!!!!!

Please do not add this...

PvP is already a dead art :(((((

If this comes in then all I'd have to do is list 500 FSP in the MP for 100k gold... go to this area... come back 1 hour later... and buy out everyone under me... do this over and over again... never having to worry about bank depos or PvP... Bank Depos and Lock EXP are the 2 'opt out' options for PvP... as it is I hate that there are ANY options to opt out... WHY do you want to add in more options :? :(


Hey that is a cool idea, if they do this i would totally do that, except the MP is kind of empty so that would not work so well unless there was more fsp on the market, and you can do it anyways if you have a good defense set

I've seen this idea pop up several times in variouse incarnations and like the idea, would make it easier to sell FSP in bulk while giving time to deposit it. I'ld rather pay for sanctuary than lose it to pvp.

"You will also be able to engage in combat with other players, stealing their gold to improve your own character." Quoting the "come-on" HCS has on front page of the game...

I don't really do it or like it but PvP is part of the game. While I don't do it, I like the constraints it puts on us in the game. If this were implemented I'd like to see 2 things and NOT see another. I would NOT like to see it "locked" in for a time period at beginning. It should be an indefinite stay and can be left at any time. It should also not be limited to any number of people per level.

What I would like is that once you invoke the Sanctuary and then leave it. You can not invoke another Sanctuary for a certain (long) period of time. I was thinking 90 days. Otherwise people could run into it after every hunt. Also, I don't think it needs to be a physical location that takes lots of stam to get to. If you can only use it once every 90 days it could be right on Krul Beach - next to the entrance or the portal or something. It could even be a "floating" location. If you could only use it once eveyr 90 days who cares how easy it is to get to?

My 2 cents.

Why don't we also add a rose garden for tea? Or perhaps a nice shopping mall where players can buy purses to wear to this sanctuary?

What if a player just PVP and stole a huge amount of gold, he can then hide in the sanctuary for 48 hours to avoid any bounty?
I suppose if you make the BB board supersede the sanctuary then it makes more sense.
My 2 cents :idea:


Sorry - I ment to say Bounties would be able to be done on someone inside the sanctuary.

Then it is not a bad idea :D


HELL ya, i am goin on vacation this summer, i wouldnt mind being safe, but can u put it like a down payment so lets say its 2k a day, put 100k into it for 50 days, it would be much easier

The Sanctuary
This would be a place where you are immune for PvP, but it would cost you gold per hour to stay in it.

Reasons for the Sanctuary:
1) You've just leveled and need to log off, but don't want to loose you new level due to PvP.
2) Some player is hounding you, it's a place to hide.
3) If you are going on holiday, your character will be truly safe from de-leveling.

Comments would be appreciated.

This would be great because then I could jsut pay the hourly rate to stay in sanctuary while I'm holidng a lot of gold instead of spending FSP's to give myself more bank deposits, which is 50 FSP's per upgrade. Seriously, this is idea has good intentions and that's the only goo dpart about it.
