Endurance Arena and Arena Settings

Some - maybe even many - have complained about not being able to beat the vMA, let alone the MA.
I propose adding a feature that will let players set the type of arena they want to battle in. This arena feature would be completely separate from MA and vMA.
The idea is to allow, say healers, to go in an arena and not deal damage but instead survive it. This [Endurance] arena type would be set with a timer, and the healer just has to heal through the onslaught. Such an arena is not just for healers - it's just an example. Anybody can do it, and this is just one type of arena that would be available.
There could be a Group Kill arena, in which no one target can be taken out. The enemies have to be lumped together and destroyed in one fell swoop. An arena like this could be great for a player looking to play as a tank and wanting to test their build in a "controlled combat sequence".
This feature would offer the usual trophy accomplishments and a leader board for those doing really well. And players that aren't doing well, won't have to feel too bad because this feature is intended to let them practice while having fun.
A "how many can you kill" arena, in five minutes? Perfect for DPS types that want to really go crazy and just poor it on wave after wave until the timer stops. And the list goes on ... There are many arena types that could be implemented that would be effective, different and fun.

Humatiel✭✭✭✭Their really is no need for such an environment because eso is not a "trinity" game. Yes we form teams that have roles but beyond the most inexperienced players they aren't anything other than a fluid concept. Now if you were interested in turning this into a training environment on the other hand; test dummies/no gear repair costs etc along with this and it (of course) giving 0 rewards then that would be something to think about.VMA | vHRC-HM | vAA-HM | vSO-HM | vMOL-HM

That's exactly what I am suggesting - a training environment that's fun for any role or hybrid.Motto: Make deceivers believers.

This is what I disagree with. It's one thing for a player to ask for content that is designed specifically for them to get better, its quite another to ask for that same content to then reward them for it. This environment should offer no gear/achievements/weeklys, but should allow for more in-game statistics for those without addons so they can see enough statistical data to make use of it.VMA | vHRC-HM | vAA-HM | vSO-HM | vMOL-HM
