Post subject: MVP Arena... Round 3 |
|
|
If we want more players on this server something needs to be done to attract them from other servers. This is just one of the many suggestions I am going to bring back up, that did pass by a majority. This also gives everyone access to "rare" MVPs so we stop seeing the complaints about them as well. Anyway onto the original post itself.

That's the list of MVP's that were chosen by members of the server, that voted and given their say anyway. Along with voting out quite a few MVP's from the original list.
It's going to be quest orientated instead of how the current mvp room is - Such as having Mvp Vouchers, Mvp Arena Pass, and hidden sign posts.
Now I'll break down each part -
Mvp Voucher - Token used to by-pass the 15 minute wait, but you have to pay the cost of the Mvp you wish to summon. (Arena Pass does not nullify the cost of an Mvp if used with a Voucher.)
Arena Pass - Awarded after completing a pretty long and challenging quest of "hide and seek" with a sign post. (You're given clues, find the next one.)
For even more Clarity, the MVP room will consist of 10 rooms where players can go to a NPC and select a MVP of their choosing for zenny. To bypass the zenny you will need to complete a quest that is pretty complex that requires a player to search for hidden signs throughout the RO world both in towns and dungeons. Each sign will give a clue to where the next sign will be. There will be 30-50 signs in all.
Now with this MVP room, you have a 15 minute wait between MVP summons, to bypass this wait you will need MVP vouchers. The Vouchers can either be a quest item a MVP drop or whatever the Admin decides to make them. However using these vouchers will negate your Arena pass and you will be charged per summon the full amount. The reasoning for this is to make it fair to other players if one player hogs the room. Now the Vouchers can be a quest item, event item for the GM's, or a monster drop.
Rules of this MVP room are simple....
1. No Kill Stealing
2. You must be lvl 200+ to Summon ( No DBL Clienting)
3. If you run Multiple clients and are caught you will lose your access to the MVP room.
4. Summon what you can kill. If you can't kill it don't bother summoning.
5. Since its only 10 rooms respect other players and give them a chance.
Exception to Rule 4, if you summon and die you have a 2 minute grace time to get back in the room before your MVP becomes free game.
The idea of the MVP arena is to make the economy better. Too much over farming in the current MVP room leads to weird pricing. Rares on the server costing folks real money to purchase, and no I don't mean with gold coins we're talking about paypal. You have to start somewhere and where else to start than right here.
Leave your say via a post, and screw the triple forum account people, we know who you are so don't even bother. Also lets try to not get this thread locked. _________________

Ohhhhh ggaaawwwddd! Lock! Trolls! TROLLS! Trolls everywhere! lol jk
But no, I actually agree with this thread, as it is well thought out, and has input from multiple views, as it would also balance out the economy and stop overpricing. _________________ "The World will know that free men stood against a tyrant.

If it goes through, maybe a TG wont be worth 150 damn mil.
but it kinda ruins the fun of hunting, though you can always still go do it legit.
idk i like it and i dont. so many people have most the mvps now, thats a hassle enough. eventually it will just be who can utilize them best. if i wanted that i woulda gota high rate server. but at the same time keil should be worth 120 dollars on a fucking game. would be nice to have the option to even up with some players again
and lets face it, sometimes cards owns skill
you could be good as hell at the game, a bio with garm just pops you like a pimple before you can do anything
but yea im very interested to see how this turns out, i could live with it ether way. sooner or later everyone will have everything anyways so |

Fact of the matter is this, average server population hasn't changed in more than a year to my knowledge. If we want to have a chance to change that there are 3 specific area's that need an overhaul to help balance out the server and this is one of those 3. PVP and WoE are the other 2, and luzz is working on that.
On topic here, if this MVP arena came to pass. It would create a fair chance for all players to obtain cards instead of the whining about one guild or a few players etc having everything. I personally still only have drac and maya P. =3
Kiku already said eventually everyone will have everything anyway, which is entirely true. As a server gets older this tends to happen, I remember 2 years ago pretty much the rarest card on the server was Maya Purple and there was a bunch of arena MVP's that was mostly it. I'm sure Luzz could check the item amount of each card on the server and would know how many has come into circulation compared to 2 years ago. I agree that it would become about who utilizes those cards best, but that excites me. At least the "you're only good cause you have cards" excuse falls to the way-side. I'm not pointing fingers, just stating that it's been said on many occasions. More importantly than that, new players could see that arena we have and be excited for the chance to obtain those cards on a low-mid rate like reign. Once WoE is fixed it could certainly get very interested specially if server population begins to rise.
About the Economy. This would (in my opinion) fix the entire USD issue, I've said it in other threads before. Long story short, new players are gonna come to the server as it is now and be like "Tao costs $100 USD?! k bye." I wouldn't be surprised if this has happened, but with this arena they will see it can be spawned every 15 mins and can work at getting it themselves. USD issue gone bye bye who's gonna spend $100 of their hard earned cash on a card from a monster they can summon themselves rather quickly? Not happening. Some people have brought up concerns about less donating for BB's on double drop, this has been argued already so just a quick reminder. Not just me but a lot of people still would to bypass that wait and/or zeny cost to spawn several hundred or perhaps thousand MVP's continuously without wasting time on those 24 hour rare Double drop days. Donations will not decrease, if anything they'd increase. Not so many people blowing $100's on cards, rather they can use it on more gear or BB's for themselves, I break em for fun cause I find it amusing.
All in all, yes to this arena. One thing we all have in common is we all want reign to stick around, something needs done to bring more players to reign. this is one way that I believe would work. ^^ _________________

oh no...a suggestion from SOS!!!!
I votes yes. I like the idea. I have played many servers with MVP arenas (most with higher rates than Reign) and it was a blast. even on a high rate it took me like 50+ Gloom kills to get his card. Bacsojin was pretty hard to drop as well. I hadnt began to hunt Kiel yet. I dont even want to imagine how bad it would've been to get his card.
I like the idea and would love for it to happen. _________________ RIP Xander -April 9th, 2010- Love you and miss you daily.

I agree in adding the cost to mvp room and also i agree with adding some more mvps and the whole idea bubba has here, but i vote to keep the major mvps out of it. If you want those then go hunt the hard way. Dont make it easyer. _________________

I agree with Greg, this would make anyone who has 1b (sadly, there are a lot) get Kiels. Then what happens?
Edit:
Just keep the major ones out, like Kiel and GTB. |

I figure I let you guys know some of the MVPs were voted out. Please look at the list carefully. Kiel isn't on it, also you do pay for summons, unless you get a Arena Pass. But you gotta wait 15 mins before you can summon a MVP again. If you use a voucher, you pay full price and only then can you bypass the wait.
Please add more ideas to the topic everybody. _________________
