Orange Seasonal PVP Server

rankorr · #1 02-29-2020, 05:17 AM

A fresh PVP is always very popular at first. But after a few months the numbers drop hard every time.
Here is an attempt to solve that problem while making everyone happy. (even Rogean)

New PVP TLP Server Orange Starting Fresh pre-kunark with Vallon Zek (classic ruleset) from March 1st to May 31st.

June 1st server rules change to Sullon Zek (classic ruleset) until August 31st.

September 1st rules change again to Tallon Zek (classic ruleset) until November 30th

Winter is Coming - Rallos zek ruleset (with classic 1 item loot + coin ) begins December 1st until February 28th

Repeat this once for Kunark and once again for Velious.

After the 4th season in Velious merge server into red and continue the Seasonal Changes.

I dont know but maybe Changing the ruleset each season will be what it takes to keep the pvp server population thriving

Now I know we are not getting anything on march 1st. But a June 1st Sullon start would be fun.

I personally only played on Rallos Zek and a little bit on Sullon. so i'm not familiar with the the dynamics of Vallon/Tallon.
I have read someone saying they dont like the teams because some teams wouldnt have access to certain classes?
Am i the only one would thinks that sounds AMAZING though? I love the idea of 1 team having paladins and rangers but not SKs or whatever. bring it on please!

Pvp is fun because its chaotic. These seasonal changes will hopefully keeps things chaotic.
Worried that your guild will be torn apart when Sullon or Rallos kicks in? We should want that.

Im done.

Side note: I wish i tried Vallon/Tallon. I think i missed something amazing there. it was obviously so popular that 2 servers were made for it.
I wonder why red wasn't teams in the first place for that reason.
The more i think about it i would love a season that is "every race is their own team" Race wars.

PS: Change ToV back to normal on red.

Sounds good but a refresh every 3 months doesn't sound too fun, plus alot of players like achieving their epic weapons post- kunark...No one's going to want to put the work in to equipt their character when it's going to just get whipe 2-3 months later. Some players wouldn't even reach 50 in a month, meaning thatll be cutting their equipting and pvping time down even more before reset [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Maybe reset every year and a half or something lol

Not a server refresh/wipe every 3 months. just a ruleset change in progress.

I see the appeal of the seasonal and longer term recycle model. Even seasonal servers would draw less people with each new variation imo. A lot of people, as mentioned above, like to accumulate gear and achievements such as their epic or obtain rare spells like torpor.

I'm not sure how one bridges these two philosophies.

Rogean allegedly has lots of ideas and allegedly cannot stop talking about it.

I'd love to hear them.

Keep post content to under ~5-6 lines and maybe people will read it.

Most of us have short attention span, ADHD or are on drugs (usually all above combined).

Excuse me, I am a highly paid lawyerdoctor and that's why I don't have time to read posts like this. I need to be either in my 33rd floor NYC office or on my top-geared warrior.

As this is discussing SOME project 99 backed PVP server of any kind, I fully support this post.

As a doctor with a law degree and also as a practicing high profile climate change psychologist working in Hollywood, I didn't have time to peruse the details but I will have a staff member give this a once over for formal approval.
