i think the whole idea is useless as far as rewarding players who don't actually do any pvping...how does HCS plan on determining who is inactive and who isn't? based on if they signed in that week or? theres enough problems in other areas of the game already without having to institute something to promote more pvp trading


- When the reward is issued anyone in the top 100 who has not participated in PvP that week (i.e. inactive) will recieve 'decay' on their PvP rating and loose a percentage of their rating.


Based on this statement it wouldn't be based on logging in and logging out.

Right, so it would likely promote more pvp trading so they can appear active and keep their places. Like I said before: adding rewards to a broken system is only going to make it worse.

This thread is not about adding rewards.. this thread is just a pie in the sky, dream a dream about possible rewards. This thread is not to advocate a system. It is merely me saying IF pvp rewards were given what would be some cool ones. The possible rewards for A pvp system have nothing to do with the implementation of that system.

Saying lets give out a Gold, Silver, and Bronze medal for 1st 2nd and 3rd place has nothing to to with Jesse Owens or the politics behind the Olympics. It is only a discussion about the rewards.. period.. isn't there a cool PvP item you would like to see as a reward?

Nah, its not a nipple. Its a shadow :)

As for the rewards, i think crystalline bound items would be a good idea :) Preferably with enhancements like Duelist, First Strike, Disarm, etc

A different item could be given out every week, to cover various level ranges

Ok. this is a bit over powered but as long as we are day dreaming how bout a pot that works like Brew master and extend and makes all buff and pots on you last 24 hours. just think how cool it would be to get a heap of buffs and know you don't worrie about any falling off for 24 hours :D :D :D

I had this idea a while ago:

I think it deals with most of the problems a reward could have, and its the least expoitable.. Have a look. When i originaly posted it, it didnt get any attention tho.

What i like about the prestige system:
* I like the idea of giving a reward for doing pvp, if more people get drawn to pvp, more gold and stamina is being sunk.

What i dont like about the prestige system:
* It is based on the pvp-rating system witch is allready broken.
* Its another rating/points system, instead of using the pvp-rating for it.
* Its very easy to abuse, if 2 players same level hit eachother while recharging they can get there prestige too easy.

My idea:
* Fix the pvp rating system, by making a 10stam hit unable to be bountied. This can better show who is good at pvp.
* Then use the pvp rating as a base for the rewards
* Make it a ladder, like the rating is a ladder: with pvp-rating of 1200 you can choose between AL100 or BERS100 buffs, with rating of 1500 you can choose X or Z buff, with rating 2000 you can choose between for instance Nightmare Visage or high lvl doubler ... with the buffs increasing in level, any buffs can be in the ladder.
* Buffs including should be both levelling buffs and combat buffs, levellers have to get reward for doing pvp, but true pvp-ers dont really need the adept learner skill. Why should they be left in the cold for something they are good at.
* Every 24hours you can choose a skill of the ladder.. this way players will not want their pvp-rating to drop on purpose, and the rating will become real, showing who is good at pvp.

This is just an idea, its not deeply worked out. some things of it have been suggested before,

all feedback is welcome


HCS wants to connect the reward directly to the pvp rating... Just like my idea was back then when they first introduced prestige.

Let me know what you think of that idea i quoted please

This was the same idea but more detailed.

I have given this some more tought and the pvp-rating-reward-ladder could look something like this:

PVP RATING | REWARDS TO CHOOSE FROM
1200 | AL 100 or BERS 100
1300 | LIB 100 or EW 100
1400 | DBL 100 or EA 100
1500 | DBL 150 or wither 100
1600 | AM 150 or sanctuary 75
1700 | CONS 150 or last ditch 150
1800 | DBL 450 or shockwave 150
1900 | AL 175 or dark curse 150
2000 | DBL750 or shatter armor 175
2100 | LIB 200 or spectral knight 150
2200 | AL200 or Keen edge 150
2300 | DBL1000 or Nightmare visage 150
.. and so on..

You can choose a skill every 24hours, from your step on the ladder or lower. It can reset like your bank deposit, so its possible to time it that you can have 2 skills from the ladder at once if you time it right.

The higher your pvp-rating is the higher the reward you can get. This will make pvp-rating really important, for all players, both levellers and pvp-ers. PVP-rating will actually mean something.

Together with the 10stam hit being unable to bountie, this should get everybody into pvp. If you get high rating, you have to come up with defensive setups to try and stay there. Nobody will want to deliberatly let their rating drop and everybody will want to get higher on the ladder. Making pvp very interesting, and the rating shall give a fair view of how good you are.

Lame threats like attack=bounty can change into cool threats like: 'you 10stam me= i 100stam you'

* HCS will see alot of stamina and gold wasted if everybody is hitting eachother.
* Gold thieves can still keep doing what they are doing, but there is still the risk of bounties, as they dont use 10stam hits.
* Merchants will have good days, everybody will want some good equipment, to get higher on the ladder, or to stay high.
* Pvp-ers will have a possible reward. And alot more company in their niche of the game
* Levellers will have a possible reward.
* Bountyhunters might get less bounties on the board.. i am not sure.. goldthieves will still use more than 10stam off course, and pvp-ers that want to hurt players will also keep using more than 10stam.. those can still be bountied
* Farmers and inventors may have less buyers. To compensate for their loss, there can be inventing buffs added to the reward-ladder.
* Buff sellers will have a little less income. The reward is only 1 buff every 24hours, so ppl will still need buffs, but they will get 1 for free.. Buff sellers may be against the idea.



Sorry for quoting myself by the way. But right from the start they came out with prestige, i tought it was c**p. So i figured that this is how they should have done it.

Please feel free to feedback on it.
