I didn't really have time to read through all 6 pages but I read a few posts and this is what I think:
Adding a specific BIG "pvp practice duel arena" where u're only allowed to duel 5 times / day, which is only open two hours / day, one for each timezone. (or perhaps two times / timezone if one time / timezone is too little, depending on what u guys think)
This will in worst case make the "world pvp" dead for TWO hours / day, which isn't much, but it would most likely encourage more players to learn the pvp, and in the long run I think that it would help the shard a lot.
Lags is right about that its expensive for new players to learn the pvp, having this autosupplied practice arena twice a day would help with that, but it still wouldn't ruin the world pvp (since it's not open more than two hours / day) which is what Habibi seem to be worried about, so it's a win/win for everybody.
I actually think that it would have a spiral effect that would help a lot. Think about this:
- A new player decide to join the shard.
- The new player does not have items, nor gold, to try out the pvp. He doesn't know how to survive against gankers and he knows he'll just die in two seconds if he tries to fight somebody without practice. He has no friends since he just joined.
- He tries the autosupplied duel area, he does 5 duels with full gear against somebody else who most likely is willing to teach him or who may also be new and willing to practice with him.
- He realizes that the pvp is fun, gets some basic knowledge of it.
- He tries it out some more at the duel stones (for cash), he gets even better, he begins ganking as well.
- He becomes a good pvper / ganker and has a lot of fun, and tells all his friends to come to Imagine Nation to enjoy the fun PvP.
- The shard grows. More players come to try it out. More people learn the pvp from the autosupplied duel arena.. and from there on it repeats over and over again..
Think about it.. wouldn't that be worth it.. ?
