Introduce House Thuranni and direct, non-combat, PVP missions

Obviously, this would require cross-server queueing and random matchmaking. Without it, it would either be ridiculously exploitable, or it would be too frustrating to find a group/opponents.

I like the idea in general, but not sure we have the playerbase to make it work in practice.

Thats why you need to make it that to win, its still a bit of a challenge. Even IF the other team allows you to rush first to the main loot chest, youll still have to solve puzzles, fight through mobs, and take down bosses.It shouldnt be "easy" to get to the end even IF the other team isnt making it harder for you (although it shouldnt be impossible either).



What are you basing this on? How much dev time is too much dev time for it to be worth anything? What knowledge do you have of how long it takes the devs to develop and release content? Or are you simply stating this for the sake of stating this? Dont get me wrong, im genuinely curious about 2 things here: A) How long it does really take to release content and B) if/how you know what youre speaking about here.

On my thought that any time spent on something that I feel few would use (need two parties to make this work) is to much time spent way from content for the majority.


It takes a long to time to make what we get now and test is for problems and even then it has problems. I really dont have any interest in competting agaisnt other players in anyway if I wanted to do that there are plenty of games for that and if you read the other pvp threads I am far from being alone in that.

Positive that the devs have stated they will not work on PvP..I'll try finding the quote...

And I'm sure you'll find one.

BUT, (and its a big BUT) while I gave this the label of PVP, it is not PVP in the sense that quote will have been talking about.

PVP comes as a pre-defined term (most of the time) that translates into players engaging other players in combat. Fighters hitting Mages who are shooting fireballs at clerics who are being back stabbed by Rogues.

If you read the OP, you'll realize that this is NOT what this idea is about, and a thread quote by devs saying "We won't do PVP" isn't really applicable unless its in a thread talking about this sort of non-combat PVP.
