So I was discussing about the current game, it's state and how raiding changed a lot since GT, and how things have evolved from nothing to now.
As we were going, we started imagining new ideas for a new raid and this awesome thing came out of our brainstorm thingy that we couldn't keep it for our own!
The idea would be a raid similiar to the Wandering isle map, in a raid mode, mixed with pvp. How would that go?
Well the idea would be that it would be a 24 or 48 man raid. Depending on what devs think.
In the purple circles is where both raids would start, both raids? EXACTLY. pvp + pve.
League and Empire rushing to kill the bosses.
Bosses are located at the black and red circles. On the way between the circles could be mobs or mechanics/tactics to do.
so each raid could kill 2 bosses but the raid that kills the boss 1st, gets the loot while the other faction won't have loot for the kill. So whoever kills the 1st boss 1st, gets loot. Same concept applies for the 2nd boss.
Blue circle:
PVP ARENA WITH BUFFS. This is where both raids will have to lead as efficient as possible to use the right players with the right classes in the right setup in order to have the most winning advantage. The idea would be that buffs would spawn in the blue arena in some airborn pvp platform where the raids can fight eachother for the buffs that will be applied to their pve raid that meanwhile is clearing the PVE part, tactics, mechanics etc.
For example buffs would be: damage increases, heal increases, HOT's, DOT's on enemy pve raid, negative debuffs for the enemy raid, name it.
Red cicle:
This is where it gets awesome,
both raids will enter at the same time with the highest rank of the guild as marked, with increases hp that's like millions of billions or w/e, make it relevant. Those marked players become the bosses that the enemy factions need to kill. Now ofc you could say it's impossible with x heals, but that's where the debuffs could come in from the pvp area.
if for example there is no guild leader attending, then the next would be treasurer or SO's, and since there can be more than one of these, it would be whoever has the highest prestige aquired currently.
That's what we got so far, any ideas or comments? Hopefully this might become a thing! I was thinking in DC style.
