Hello Com,
i want to share my ideas to bring a "new" system into ESO. I am writing "new" because it is more a social thing rather than implementing a whole new thing that will distract from the important bug fixing/game design.
As we all now, it is cool to look different, thats why we have different armor styles, but at the and the most players wear nearly the same sets(+styles), because there arnt many different sets to reach max stats. So as a high level player i cannot feel unique or i can not show how much i play through my armor/weapon(at least at the end game).
Idea:
So my idea is to take the actual sets you can drop in dungeons and just copy the same set, but add a very unique and special design to it that will stand out of the mass(maybe increase the set stats by 5-10% for the hardcore player). To ensure that this will be always unique, just make the droppchance around 1% or even less.
-For all pvp players you could create a reward for playing (X hundred hours in cyrodiil + conquer X hundred of castles + Kill X People) = Reward for playing years/months.
This could make people very special and you could feel "proud" to be one of the players to wear one of the rarest sets.
(I know that the most players(90%), inculding me, would never get the armor/sword, but isnt it cool to stay in a party with someone that is much better than you and you know it? You know that you cannot reach that "level" ingame because you dont play so much, but he is a bit stronger than the most high lvl players that why you will benefit by playing with him.)
This idea came up because i thought about playing so many hours, but not being able to show it.
Please share your thoughts and maybe this idea will lead to another system that will be much better(and if you find wrong spelling, pls let me know:))
Greetings,
