I've started working on it, Id say 30% done, but I'd like to get some imput from fellows eqemulator users.
Before voting please take the time this ;) :
I know they are tons of PVP servers out there, but none of them appeal to me, and Id like to share my "vision" and see if peoples agree with it.
PVE:
-this server will be a classic server, but not half or semi classic with random item from further expansions included in custom zones or anything, or post classic quests and items.... JUST a classic server with everything actually working (no offense to guildwars, this server is a kind a "legacy of guildwars" but I think it was one of GW major flaw)
-In my mind PVE is a requirement for a good PVP experience. New zones will also be reverted (CT/nek/etc/PoHate..) Dragons will be hard, Rubicite will be back and there will be quests for ravenscale armor etc... PVP will be as polished as PVP
-XP will be faster than live of course, spells will be reverted to pre-ubgrade
PVP (inspired by GW... )
- Its a guild based server, however beeing in the top guild wont be a requirement to enjoy the server. Guilds will be able to conquiert city, but only 3 will be "conquerable", to make people actually fight for them.. Guild will get a bonus for owning them, worthwile but not unbalancing (I have an idea,
but still working on it )
-Players will get points for every PVP kill (with all classic PVP rules IE: losing pts for killing lower level unless they attack/heal your enemies, less points for repetitive kills etc..)
2 incentives to PVP:
-to buy items or "buff bots" for a short while. Im thinking of 2 kind of items : expandable such as potion and rare classic (all PoA quest items) and some kunark items (circlet of shadow, locket of escape, a few weapons for melee...)
-to rank on a ladder
-no "safe haven" such as nexus, everything (merchants etc..) will be located in EC tunnel
Please feel free to add any suggestion
