Better Rewards for Grand Overlord

zyk · October 2018

I'm glad the rewards aren't better because we don't need more PVE passengers in Cyrodiil -- who would, as we've seen in past events, begin to demand things be changed to suit them better.

At this rate we NEED that. I fight the same people almost everyday.

Scroll for your houses. Best thing ever.

And nothing for you know Pvp. I also have to buy those with Ap.

You get an older scroll for your house with AP. And that is the only way to get this item. And I promise you....a lot of people want this and will never get it. Good enough for me.

Imagine that you completed the new 4 man arena and could then buy the weapon they chose for 100k gold.

Now imagine if it took a straight year of that arena to get that opportunity

Imagine actual gamers who played the game for fun gameplay rather than the Skinner Box zombies who play for shiny things and who are a cancer on gaming.

There is nothing wrong about having a competitive spirit.

If you think the Skinner Box zombies that most players are in MMORPGs are a bastion of competitive spirit then you need to think again.

Furthermore people bothered about gameplay are naturally more concerned with competition, because the two go hand-in-hand, eg. you can't have good PVP gameplay without it being competitive to a meaningful extent.

AvA rank should not give anything for players,
I know many max lvl in AvA who are really bad at the game, and all they do is zerging.
Why should a zerger get more rewards than a skilled player?

as PVE player at lvl 50 CP160 and maxed out, you don´t get anything more awesome loot then before!
you are just a Grandoverlord, and as I remember well I killed you sunday night^^, nothing special to await there!

and no reason why that should be changed.

This is not about a) Loot, b) how hard anyone is to kill, but c) about GO being the end achievement for PvP progress.

PvE gets all the shinies - skins, polymorphs, motif pages. GOs get a title, a dye and a scroll replica. Doesn’t sound really fair. At least they could do a decent costume or something.

I am just saying that there is nothing wrong in people who got a Grand overlord asking for a better reward than a title or a dye. An achievement that takes from half a year to 5year+ to achieve, no matter if zerging or small scalling should be more rewarding than that imo. It is a lot of time investment and a good way to distinguish your time investment / management into the game. If you don't care about rewards, good for you.

A considerable amount of players do and there is no reason why you shouldn't be able to respect that.

Did you just compare getting lvl50 (something I did in one night farming 250dolmens while watching netflix) with the time it takes to get the rank of Grand Overlord in a range going from half a year to 5 years for some players?

Give ar50 players who also have the emperor costume a helmet that matches the emp costume and has a sick ass cape on it

Give tiered rewards based on your rank. For example: An accessory every new rank. A mount every 10. A polymorph every 25.

Give players the inspiration to pvp and rank up.

Interesting idea. If they do this however, I hope it’s not like the way they set up giving out rewards for leveling and obtaining the other storage chest.

I really don’t have it in me to start leveling another character in alliance for new goodies every ten or so ranks.
Hopefully, they’d consider the amount of time it’s taken many of us already.

Not even a grand overlord and can completely agree. It's ridiciulous tbh. End game PVE rewards dominate over end game PVP rewards in nearly every single way. PVE is on it's um-teenth cool flashy skin while PVP never even got a single one.

The itemization, the incentives for this PVP ranking system are literally close to nothing. A title, and a color in exchange for 65 MILLION AP. Oh, and don't forget that you now are a walking achievement for others. Isn't that so fun and rewarding??

Yes, it should be retroactive (applied to existing chars). And tbh pvp ranks should be account based not char based. It makes no sense why a new char starts at rank 1 when the player could already have years of experience and be an expert at pvp. The current rank system has no meaning.

doesn't need a better reward its just a general title that is worthless; you don't need to be a good player to get it

I just feel as it should be rewarding enough to keep people playing PvP or bring new people into PvP because it actually worth it.

You don't need to be a good player to get any of the pve titles and skins, you just need to have enough gold to buy a group to carry you for the achievements.

Can't do that with PVP.

Methinks if you get too many shiny things gaining GO even more people will farm their friends to get it. Would be as bad as Emp trading and all they get now is a title and a dye.
