The Albion Online Arena Guide
As we can all agree, gvgs are perhaps the greatest activity one can partake in the world of Albion, however in this world gvgs seem to be only limited to the top A teams of the ruling guilds. This is why me and other members have devised an idea for a new seperate system of gvg that is more friendly when it comes to organizing them for players that still want to partake, but don't have the current top tier armor and weapons or the authority and permission to do so.
-The Arena
Is what we decided to call it. In other words a place where a team of 5 on their own actions can go queue for a battle against another 5 man team.
Similar to the hellgates idea, however instead of being the first ones in and then waiting for the others to pull the mobs, this would be a more equal fight in order to not just have a great battle, but to give them practice in a gvg.
-Step by step process
1. Get a group of 5
2. Go to a city and talk to the (Arena npc)
3. Sign up your group in which your average item tier would be allowed to.
(Here we decided it would be best to have a limiting factor in which u can only queue for battles against other teams that would have the exact or nearly same item tier or value. Perhaps have multiple choices in which it scans or calculates your team's items to decide where to place you and against.)
4. Can decided to do this for multiple options of
-option 1: When die, you respawn with your gear at the tent and can head back out to fight until points are depleted
-option 2: Exactly similar to a gvg in which u want to bring armor sets and such
-option 3: Etc(open for ideas)
5. Once a team has been matched, you and your group are transported to an island(similar to a player's personal island), however it will be one of the random territories that a gvg could be fought over.
6. Once the fight is over, the team that lost are transported out, while the winning team has a minute or so to gather up the loot into their bags(we think it would be a good idea to make a battle chest for this so that it's easier for the players, perhaps the chest in the middle of the city)
-Ranking system
Here is what we love the most about this idea, a group can go under a name in which it keeps track of how many wins and loses. You can then have a leaderboard that shows the top gvg teams publicly for all to see. This will give something players to be proud of, not only that their group is #1 but that they are representing their guild in these fights as well.
This came from talks on how players were getting bored and mad that they would not be able to be in our guilds gvgs because of their items tier or how hard of a process it is to find others to be free at a specific time. With this system, u would be allowing more players to partake in an event that they normally would not be able to, give them experience for the real thing, as well as chances for more loot. We truly hope u consider this for a possible assignment, not just for us but for all of Albion. Conflict loves Albion and we really want to see it shine in the world.
