New PvP Reward System

This would totally require a huge change and probably wouldn't happen anyways but still...

A lot of PvPers are eventually going to cap out on Balth (or already have) and will have nothing to buy. They will become UAX. Whats the point in doing 99% of PvP then?

Titles.

Eventually players will max those all out.

What then?

Why not add something new? Of course if a player isn't maxed out on balth / titles, this could help advance them!

[New PvP Reward System Idea v1.00]
By: DarkNecrid

Features:
*Honor: You gain honor by completing objectives, killing your foes, or doing other such things.

*Plaque: An item you gain in various ways (actually added to your inventory). There is many different versions, and each version is in its own stack. Plaque's may not be traded, and are account based.

*A new Title track: Related to the total amount of Honor your account has recieved.

*Getting voted a leecher, etc, in an arena voids all Honor + Plaque's you would recieve from the match.

*A different reward system for each type of PvP, lower tiered PvP such as RA gets less Honor, while higher PvP such as GvG gets much much more. Each type of PvP also has its own rewards as well.

*All honor gains apply to your team. So if an ally kills a foe in Random Arenas, you as a monk get 5 Honor. This allows support classes to get rewards.

*All Honor gains are given at the end of a match. For example, if your team kills 3 foes before anyone dies in Random Arenas, you get +30 Honor, not 5+5+5+15+30.

*The Killing X foes without anyone on your team dying, only applies to unique kills. Killing a rezzed foe doesn't count towards it.

Heroes Ascent:
There would be a lot of unique objectives here based on map for various amount of Honor. I don't have this listed yet cause I have too many good ideas. I'll post this later...

Buyable at the Heroes Ascent's Priest of Balthazar:
-Flame of Balthazar: 1,000 Honor + 25 Plaque's of HA

Jade Quarry + Fort Aspenwood:
Both of these I don't have figured out yet either...<_<

FA would have a lot lower Honor gain than JQ, and have less rewards (because its more popular). JQ would have a higher honor gain, more unique rewards, new minis not found at HA/HB trainers, special weapon + armor skins, etc! Stuff to get people to JQ more often :P

Lemme know what you think....I tried to make it as smooth as possible. If you have any questions etc or if something didn't make sense let me know.

I like how you put a lot of enthusiam into giving UAX players something to do, however, I have over 540 Balthazar tokens from unused faction in my storage. I'd rather have usage for that. Trading 5k Balthazar for 1,000 Gold, seem like a comparable compromise? 5 Balthazar tokens = 1k. I have 540+. Let's do it!

i'd like this too....

I'll say it again... next time I'll open a new thread, XD.

1. Rename "Tournament Tokens" to "Zaishen Tokens".
2. Add Collectors for them, that trade drinks, sweets, indetification kits, salvaging kits...


(And maybe upgrades so PvP characters using PvP tournamet rewards can add modifiers to them without having to buy them to PvE characters)

LoL I strongly suggest checking how high are the max ranks for PvP titles and getting to know how far from that are the highest ranked players. I expect only a handful players to ever get a max PvP title unless a drastic change to the titles will happen. And that's only if they keep playing hardcore for years to come (we may see first rank15 Hero mid 2008 but I wouldn't count on max Glad or Champ in '08).

As for the reward system, I'd rather see some real use for Balthazar Faction, the increasing Maximum Balthazar Faction Cap, Tournament Tokens...

but still

/signed

as the idea is much better than what we got now.

Ummm.... no? Who do you know that is R12 Champ? Who do you know that is R15 Hero? How many people are R12 Glad? How many people have "1337 Skillz" (R7 Gamer). I don't know of anyone who has any of those, tbh. Chop Chop doesn't have R12 champ, leeloof doesn't have r15 hero (as far as I know). So, there is still a lot left to be had in PvP.

Also, IMO, they should reward Champ title with emotes, much like the Hero title. Champ is so much more difficult to get, but the only reward is the actual title.

1stly I know a few r13/14 hero ranks...r10 glad and r5 i think champion so its not impossible really although ANET add to the titles if someone gets fessibly within maxing it xD but....

lots of thought has been put in really do like it /signed

add emotes to all other pvp titles aswell imo
and also add "buy reward points" to priest of balthazar or whoever
anyways,/signed(although nobody has maxed any pvp titles................)

As a PvE'er who doesn't really touch PvP i have no objection to Anet devoting the next big update to PvP. and i think that looks a nice idea

But please PLEASE no new mini's that are PvP only.
ok then one, as with the Black Moa there are now 2 PvE ones (mini mallyx i think is obtainable though pricey/hard work) and only one PvP one (Ghostly Hero)
If Anet did add more mini's that come from this, could i request they are gained through AB, as that's a PvE/PvP hybrid.

/signed

why not just have them tradeable into tournament reward points, then you can get a fancy sword for your balth

I fail to understand some points like:
*Having your Guild Lord with 10% Hp: why would you get more points if your guild lord has less hp? I mean this more or less hp has no sense in this game since we have HEALING
*Perfect Victory (when you win the match, all 8 members of your party have full health): Like i said before, we have healing, and at the end of each match you are healed if you dont remember.

Everyone yelling at me about saying people will max out PvP titles:

My keyword was "eventually".

"*Having your Guild Lord with 10% Hp: why would you get more points if your guild lord has less hp? I mean this more or less hp has no sense in this game since we have HEALING"

If you kill the enemy Guild Lord with your guild lord having 10% hp, it means it was a very close call.

"*Perfect Victory (when you win the match, all 8 members of your party have full health): Like i said before, we have healing, and at the end of each match you are healed if you dont remember."

Before your team gets full healed is when it would be checked.

I thought this was about a better way to unlock armor and wep skins for the casual player.

Well, the TRP system would have to be shifted to have the absolute MOST EPIC skins, so that this system wouldn't outdo it, but it would be a way to get new armor/wep skins to make your PvP chars look cool for the casual guy, which is always nice.
