Spoiler This is a suggested event for community participation from all servers as a pve/pvp event.*
Basic Details===
-Using the Megaserver, the pvp portion of this event is granted to a select few. Limited numbers of players can put themselves on the ballot for selection to act as an “elite” during the event. At a designated interval/threshold they are summoned onto the field on the enemy side as one of their elite soldiers being able to attack players freely with their entire build with the benefit of the enemy buffs that are placed. When serving the enemy your main objective is defeating the player side from the event but your numbers are capped to be always drastically lower (20 players = 1 enemy player, or some balanced ratio since your enemy allies are naturally stronger). As an enemy you gain significant magic find and unique rewards throughout the battle but you are restricted to spawn only during the events designated times.
-Pve players must defend the island using siege weapons placed around the map including a map wide event to "finish building the “Lion Warship”". Collecting building materials and/or destroying enemy siege to salvage parts you can build a warship with a stronger set of siege weapons to defend the waters as well. Overall the players will need to spread and cover multiple areas from a huge waves of enemies. In fairness of various participating numbers, siege and npc ally strength are increased with lower player counts as well as npc “Captains” who act similar to wvw keep lords in terms of defence.
-Event changes randomly selecting which type of invading army will make their attack. Selecting between the the undead army, the deep sea minions, pirates, and other various groups. With them, their siege style changes such as pirates having much more ships and undead having control over fallen soldiers on the battlefield with resurrection.
-Event happens as a “guild leader initiation” meaning a guild with the designated authority can sign up a date to do the event and if a player from another guild attempts to sign up with them that first guild can authorize their help allowing members of that guild to assist them. After the event, win or lose, is a week cooldown of any of those members from rejoining the event.
Note; enemy players are allowed to opt after a threshold of players sign up and must be apart of a guild that has NOT been authorized to join the player side. This guild is not announced to the allies prior in any way but on the battlefield their guild tag/emblem can be seen.
Goals===
-Sparks Guild Vs Guild competition on a small scale, and gives large quantities of guild related items as well as rare materials.
-Merges pve enjoyment and group challenge with a flavor of pvp to give allies a real threat to be on alert with.
-Rewards can be expanded on such as unique skins, titles, and large quantities of rare materials as an incentive to participate.
-Gives some purpose to the island outside of a short storyline mission.
