Add Champion Points to the Achievement system

Xsorus · January 2015

I feel this is one of the areas that could actually use an improvement...while Dyes are interesting most people really only use a couple different dyes and the rest are sort of wasted. This would make the Achievement system more interesting and might promote people to do things they're not usually up to doing as it wouldn't yield any XP for the champion system (Fishing for example)

Yes. would love this.

I do recall a number of achievements granted veteran points, I don't see why they couldn't grant a champion point.

I think it would be better to add Champion points to the 50 Alliance ranks, currently you get a skill point, but pretty much everyone has all teh skill they need points for, and if you do need more PVE is the easier fast way to get them.

Only if those points are retroactively granted as well.

Gyudan · January 2015

I like the idea, but it would have to be implemented carefully since this has to be retroactive. Too many points would unbalance the system and I don't think anyone wants another 30/70 CP rage phase.

1 champion point for every 25 or 50 achievement points or grant certain achievements a champion point. This would have 180 - 360 total points at 9000 achievement with regard to the former.

Agree also and this is a nice idea. If i remember correct Zos was saying in the old days that Achievements will give a bonus to the players .
It's time to make this happen .

Only if achievement are account-wide, those of us who like playing alts are penalised too much as it is, we don't need this as well.

Sallington · February 2015

I 100% agree.

Goal-driven champion points > Grind-driven champion points

Champion points for fishing, exploration and crafting should be just as important as grinding the same location for days on end.

Was thinking about this the other day while talking to another player, we were thinking it would be nice to maybe just give exp for each achievement.
5-500 exp
10-1,000 exp
50-50,000 exp
Or something like that

With as many achievements there are you could gain a good amount of exp towards CP's and give more reason and rewards from getting them completed.

Must be retroactive.

I'm not convinced of the idea, yet, but let me just bring up a potential choke point with this plan: How would this work for achievements gained before level 50?

Remember that you can't gain CP until 50 (or, until VR is removed, VR1+).

Would these achievement-based exp/CP gains be "saved" while you're leveling, then thrown at you once you are able to generate CP?

Depending on how this is handled, it might have the nasty side effect of forcing people to deliberately avoid achievements until they can start earning CP.

Fantastic idea. i would very much love to see this implemented

The champion points themselves are account-wide.

Yeah I was thinking on that "problem" after I had posted, I don't see much of a problem with just having them kick in once you hit 50/V1. The achievements are there and saved so it shouldn't be hard for ZoS to instantly count them all up and give them to you. Would give fresh V1's and little boost to start up with the champion system and give current V14's more points than the crappy 70. Would give players with no quest left, more things to do while actually gaining a reward from it.

Fayaburn · February 2015

Please don't force me into fishing.

Drazek · February 2015

Lol I don't plan on fishing either, there are many achievements in the game. It would be nice to actually get something beneficial for doing the one you want to do, have done, or plan on doing. Once your done with most quest in games as ZoS nerfing exp like they have, we need some better ways to gain exp towards CP than we currently have.
