Bounty Hunter's Guild

So this concept involves npc and real player contracts. They would revolve in and out of Cyrodiil. If created they could remove the lacking bounty system in the fighters guild and make the focus of the fighters guild back to fighting evil. Not sure if they could make a capturing system with out killing. But ears or heads could be proof of claim.

Player bounties are iffy. Because you never know when a player will log out... no fun chasing something you might never reach when they go to bed just as you track them down, right? The best we could do there is not actual "contracts", but a bounty system where if you take down a bounty-fied player in cyrodil you get some extra reward... but then people might abuse that, you know, like has been a consideration about the scrapped pvP-bounty system... "Today I will be the criminal and you catch me fifty times in a row, tomorrow we switch roles..." that sort of thing.

NPC bounties... well, we have that already. In several ways, even... you can collect money for murdering innocents for the dark brotherhood, or you can collect general bounties in cyrodil if your FG is high enough... well, and then there are those undainted dailies where you go into a dwelve and do stuff, usually also involving doing in the dwelve boss... in a way, that too is a bounty. Then there are the same type of contracts for dwelves and even worldbosses in DLC/Expansion regions...

Of course, IF the powers that be wanted more bounty, they could do it for NPC bounties. Make some "bounty giver" NPC that gives "tracking contracts", much like the DB murderings, but with the difference that you gotta find yout mark yourself. Talk to people, get some hints, deduct the actual hiding place, go there and find your target, bring them back dead or dismembered, whatever. Possible? Yes. Likely? Maybe someday, but I could think of way more fun ideas...

Real player contracts? not a chance as you cant trust most of the player base not to be ***.

A bounty hunter quest chain with a story about people who broke away from the fighters guild due to their philosophical differences. Basically a fighters guild that deals with more mundane enemies rather than the daedra.

Um yes...

Always enjoyed the Bounty Hunter system in Star Wars Galaxies, anything like that would be welcome addition.

Honestly I think it would add more fun to the game to go full throttle on the bounty hunter idea

idk

The short answer is NO.

The long answer is Zos already considered a bounty system tied to teh bounties we already get if we get caught trying to steal (and not using some skills in certain areas). With the fact it could be exploited and that it would require an opt-in/opt-out system, Zos changed course. Nothing in the OP offers Zos a good reason to reconsider the idea.

A non PvP Bounty Hunter system has merit.
