Wildy PK arena with set levels

#124 Sep 2018 10:54

Our player Tomten has suggested to add a new arena to wilderness that would introduce a new twist to pk'ing on RSCR. This is something that has been suggested in the past, but was quite quickly killed off because of the alleged negative effect it may have to the rest of Wilderness.

I'd like to hear some feedback about this, because I think it may be fun to try and if the feedback over the couple days is decent, you'll see this feature implemented as a test run for upcoming weekend.

The suggestion:

Hello! I got a suggestion that I think and hope would be good for wildy pk!

The thing I have in mind is a sort of fight arena.
This arena would be 1v1 and 1ip only and always F2P.

Imagine it being like 10x15 tiles big, with a gate to enter it, with 2 altars inside and a gated bank.

To enter this arena you must have a certain combat that is decided beforehand and on a rotation like wild is today with F2P and P2P, for example one day of lvl 33 pking, one with 70 pking, 90 pking, 99 and flat or whatever.

The altars inside you can use during combat just like in the DM arena.

To enter the bank you must be out of combat for 10sec(or what else is good) and once inside the bank area you can't be attacked so you can bank in peace.

To be able to attack other players inside this arena you must wait something like 10sec or so,
the same as the timer to enter the bank.

A good location for this arena would be like 37 wild where dragons used to be, then you can
tele there using the obelisk, you can't use home teleport to escape wild and not teleport out with
dragon amulet.

So to summon in up:
* A certain "arena" that's always 1v1, 1ip and F2P.
* Need a specific combat to enter.
* Altars be used during combat.
* Enter bank area after a certain amount of time.
* Bank area safes pot, can't be attacked.

Why do I suggest this? Because I think pk is awful these days.
Multilogging is killing pk.
This might benefit dbones market as a gold sink.
This way you can go out solo in wild to pk.

This is basically the foundation of the idea, it can change as it is implemented. The arena combat level requirement would probably change hourly and any players left in arena with incorrect level would be automatically kicked off outside the arena.

If you have any thoughts about the idea, please share your feedback right here, id you'd like to discuss something in greater detail, feel free to PM me directly over Discord.

Couldn't think of anything worse you could do. Was the DM feature deleted?

"This might benefit dbones market as a gold sink."

Even if players were to buy more d bones, it would be transferred to other players, not a gold sink (or am I missing something?).
And isn't this quite similar to other pvp areas? Or is there a certain timeframe after each kill where you can't attack or be attacked by other players? (so that you can bank). If that were the case it would be pretty cool, though ranged and mage attacks should only be able to be used if you were recently (and thus still) in combat with someone.
Then again, I don't pk so I don't anything about these things
And yeah, as mentioned before, isn't it basically like DM? (though it would provide some sort of hub for DM, I guess).
Measures should also be put in place to prevent people from logging out inside the arena and attacking players of different levels.

There's already a DM arena

By making an update like this you divide the community even more, I don't know if you guys noticed but as time has gone on and the more rules, areas, stipulations, automated events etc have been added, the PKing community hasn't got bigger it's got smaller and that's even after Leg transfers and real RSC shutting down lol. If people wanted to PK they would PK, what's the point in making another area like that, there's enough of them already

I dig you Kleio always have and especially in the last 6 months, you want the pkers voices to be heard and for them all to be happy but I'm sorry, you can't please everyone my dude

Should have a low level fort instead. Not everyone likes flats pking make the lvl 12 alter in varrock wild have a hotspot that can only benefit people of a certain combat level bracket. You can have it switch between 33s, 45-50s, 55-65s etc.

All these cool features that only benefit flats is lame.

Also you could have it rotate from rats, thugs, wizards.

Most people didn't even Pk at high levels anyways. Let's get some low level pking catered too.

New ideas and features are great and all, but how about we fix all of these bugs in the game first? iron man wilderness telegrabbing, account support tab menu is broken, vet mode is a mess with inconsistent batching rules, I believe some of the skill capes are still messed up. Some of these issues have been around for months, but we can set up a whole new pk mode in less than a week?

I see nothing being gained from this idea, it's basically a second DM arena. There's already like what 2? 1IP areas and they're rarely being used, atleast now that the green dragons were removed from east wildy there's nothing to do there anymore. To spice Pking up, you should think of something else, not add anymore limitations, you could start by re-doing the whole fort because at the moment, there is really nothing for Pkers to fight over for. Add some greaters and shit to farm runes from, up the drop rates in there, add green dragons or something i honestly don't even know what should be done with it but right now its just useless. And the 1IP restriction there is just ignorant since theres been the same group of players abusing the rule for months now, not lately probably though since pking has been dead.

Automated team events would be nice, it would work pretty much same as the 1v1 tournaments, if 8 people joins then the game automatically chooses 2 teams of 4, if 16 joins then it would be 8vs8 you get the idea, doesn't really spice up the action in the wildy but would be a nice option to have with the 1v1 tournys which can get pretty boring

+ whoever said multi is killing the PK, it's literally the ONLY thing keeping it alive. Banning the main pkers permanently isn't helping it either.

Completely ignore this suggestion. Seriously think about it, you want to pull players away from the only PK hotspots we have (which aren't even that active as it is) and land another area in which ppl will completely abandon said hotspots???
Kleio, just use what I sent Rah and thank me later. It only has benefits and no downsides. This suggestion is crazy to even be considered.

Out of curiousity, what did you send to Rah? Something needs to be done for sure
