I've seen many posts floating around about forcing PvP on everyone, i dislike that view on things, so i thought for a while and came up with an idea. Not completely original mind you, but the delivery is (i think) quite unique. PvP pays horrid in comparison to say, HTE. HTE is a premium EB, and so it should naturally pay better. How can ATA make PvP profitable despite this you ask? Make a premium spell (yes, new currency, yes purchased with nobs or won in EE, or by completing a daily PvP challenge, i.e 100 successful steals, and 260 successful attacks) that will cost say 10 units of the new currency. Let's call it KhrAWme. When you cast the spell, your PvP plunder gets a 4x boost for a set amount of time, say 24 hours. Now, obviously this currency would be rather expensive via nob exchange, seeing as it would take 10 days to build up one spell the free way. And devotion of most if not all of your bars for most of the day, or use of multiple xtals per day
The two reserves are so i can fix the thread and add on later when i get PC access, just an early thought i came up with, benefits devs and PvP both, will need balancing though
You want PvP? Hit the BL. We don't "need" an incentive. Hell, half the people who say that don't even PvP. They just want to look cool for forums. I enjoy PvP just how it is. There's nothing stopping you from just hitting people.
50% chance to TAKE 100% MORE gold from the enemy. Doesn't give you more, just takes away more from the enemy.
Anyway. I realize the players already enjoying PvP don't need this, but the people who aren't can get a shot at PvP and possibly begin to do it regardless. If you notice a trend, the people already exposed to PvP love it, the newer players are afraid of it, seeing as many clans discourage it.
