I hear a lot of people talking about how they got so much glory and nothing to spend it on, and it get me thinking.
What about if you had a way to spend your glory on custom guild hall/arena map. Where you don’t really create it necessarily or maybe you could, but where you had an option to:
—turn lights out and on or put a timer on when the lights go off and on in certain areas.
—add npcs, say you have a map where you cap a node you got like a guard there, or more depending on how many real players you want to be playing on it.
—add knockdown areas, areas that cause earthquake or random tornado or something, maybe if you got that area captured they don’t affect you.
—add areas with condition and boon effects, like everyone in that area will have stability, or the people that have that area captured get a constant boon of some sort or people that are the enemies of the captured area have constant conditions or reoccurring after certain amount of time conditions.
—add music or creepy sounds to a certain area
—have jumping puzzle type fights or strictly underwater areas.
—option for people to build siege, like each team starts out with a treb or some kind of siege package, place it wherever you want and have it respawn if it gets destroyed.
—have a boss spawn that’s actually pretty tough and he goes randomly around the place and kills people, let people decide if they wanna kill it or not.
—have match types like deathmatch, 5v5v5, 8v8v8, capture the flag, last man standing, reverse tag style game (where person that’s it is the guy everyone wants to kill, longer your it the more points you get), demolition (where whoever or whatever team destroys most siege or whatever is victor.)
That’s just some ideas I just thought of, but I think if you allowed glory to be spent on stuff like this, or maybe have like a guild/team glory where you all pitch in to buy things to have a really awesome custom arena with your own kind of map or game style, it would create more teams or pvp strict guilds, and they would get highly recognized too because everyone would talk about or want to play at so and so’s server because they have super awesome map or gamestyle, because you got jaws swimming around and you have two capture nodes on jumping puzzle while people knocking you off and creepy sounds happen when you go in the water and lights are going off and on and someone is trebbing that jp so you have to avoid that as well, then the other node is in some underwater maze.
