    Default Favor Rewards "Out of the Box"

    It seems to me that the favor system has been largely dead for over a year and a half. What I want to do here is generate some ideas that can be added to the system. What I would want to stay away from is something that provides a clear advantage to a player with favor. No 36pt builds for toons with 2500 favor. Here are a few things off the top of my head:

    Opt out of Korthos and get XP to bump you to lvl 2. - Qualifier: 2 toons each with at least 1k favor.

    Clicky with 1 charge per rest of Teleport to Marketplace - Coin Lords favor. (you could do this with teleports to the various houses based on their individual favor as well)

    Ability to open a certain quest up to elite without having done it before - Specific faction favor (on any toon on account or just on the active one).

    Token of unbinding (unbind an item that you had previously bound to you via ritual - NOT raid loot).

    Token of unmaking - (recover certain percent of larges from an item)


    One of the things I shoot for is things that will keep the DDO long term player interested and eliminate a bit of the grind. I don't want to do things that make one player uber just because they have favor but conveniences go a long way in any game. These are just some thoughts off the top of my head. I would be interested to hear yours.

    AS pointed out in the OTHER thread, the Opt out is Already in the game. COmplete Korthos on ONE character and you never have todo it again if ya dont want to.

    Clicky with 1 charge per rest of Teleport to Marketplace - Coin Lords favor. (you could do this with teleports to the various houses based on their individual favor as well)
    I like this..... Would love it to be an actual TELEPORT clicky though...

    Ability to open a certain quest up to elite without having done it before - Specific faction favor (on any toon on account or just on the active one).
    Interesting one here.... If you need to hit a certain Favor level, woldnt you already have most of the quests you get opened already done?

    Token of unbinding (unbind an item that you had previously bound to you via ritual - NOT raid loot). No thanks. You Bound it. Live with it.

    Token of unmaking - (recover certain percent of larges from an item)
    Deconstructing should have nothing to do with Favor at all.
