Active world. Ashenvale caravan supplying

Post by Akarui » Tue Oct 18, 2022 4:10 pm

I played in many rpg and mmo games. And srsly, events are more interesting than static quests. "kill 10 furbolgs" (fcking genocide in server scale)

My suggestion - 2 quest chains with escort caravan quest in the end. Chain CD before the next iteration could be - 2 hour.

1st quests(phase):
collecting resources
This quests are blue and repeated as water pouch in gadgetzan.
All players in this location can do this quests untill 10 quests will be done.
Horde:
Collecting wolf, bear meat 5, 5.
Collecting woods 10. Just gathering around lumber camp

Alliance:
Collecting wolf, spider meat 5, 5.
Collecting fallen branches 10. Just gathering around Astranaar


2nd quest (Phase)
- Escort. Escort speed 60-70% of player speed
Any player can get this quest in first 50% distance. If caravan or player near caravan attacked by player highest lvl - caravan mobs lvl becomes this lvl and instantly regen hp. (defense from gankers). Player pvp is automaticaly ON during this quest.
Horde route:
from Splinterpost to camp on Zoram`s strand coast
Alliance route:
From Astranaar to camp in Azshara

When caravan is ready - other side has quest:

Prevent the supplying

Reward - rly. idk) maybe 3 Warsong marks as for BG. Or good amount of gold (3-4) because its need much time. Or something else

Big +
Maybe add an npc that keeps track of the resources similar to war effort.
This quest should really award wsg rep but that would turn it into a lvl 60 content. So probably just some low level stuff
Imo the caravan npcs should just have 100 hp and 99% damage reduction so each hit counts as 1 dmg no matter of what level you are (cthun phase 2) and have a melee ability that deals percentage based dmg to the enemy.

What about quests being the reward?

You win the event (doesn't have to be this one) and you get a few npc to spawn that provide some extra dailies, maybe recipes and a flight path. Or this could spawn for "whichever faction won the last warsong gulch"

Same for alterac/southshore and arathi/arathi highlands (probably in the keep)

Even the troll trinket arena in jungle land
(gurubashi arena) could spawn a vendor or some sort for whichever faction last won it.
+. Contested camp its another cool event)

++++

World events with long, staggered cooldowns, with vendor access, quest access, etc as rewards are really fun. I would shy away from any large % of them being PVP in nature, but they could be very fun.

I like this idea generally. But devil is in details.

Will it be possible to do escort quest multiple times for character?
How to prevent griefing from 29 twinks? They don't have high level, but can destroy regular players and guards.

Warsong marks are equally needed for low levels and for high levels. With marks in reward, this quest will be done by high level characters.
This quest should have level requirement: top and bottom constraints.
3-4 gold is very large amount of money for players around 25 lvl.

How exactly horde caravan should go to avoid Astranaar?

I propose other routes. Alliance from Astranaar to Silverwing Grove. Horde from Warsong Lumber Camp to (horde entrance to Warsong gulch).

How exactly one can prevent supplying? Kill all guards and "carrier"?
Will it be possible to steal supply and bring it to other faction base?

yes. why not. This event takes a long time. With primitive farming or quest u get almost the same.
How to prevent griefing from 29 twinks? They don't have high level, but can destroy regular players and guards.
this is not griefing. one side has caravan escort - other side has prevent. Sure preventing - harder than just escort.
Warsong marks are equally needed for low levels and for high levels. With marks in reward, this quest will be done by high level characters. This quest should have level requirement: top and bottom constraints.
sure. min-max lvl limit for quest. This location for low lvl players
3-4 gold is very large amount of money for players around 25 lvl.
maybe. but try to farming cloth or leather same time and sell then on auction. Or fishing floating trash.
How exactly horde caravan should go to avoid Astranaar?
Right or left coast.
Alliance from Astranaar to Silverwing Grove. Horde from Warsong Lumber Camp to (horde entrance to Warsong gulch
maybe
How exactly one can prevent supplying? Kill all guards and "carrier"?
Will it be possible to steal supply and bring it to other faction base?
yes kill all carrier. If 5 carrier will have 3-4k hp each and probably flee few yards being attacked it wont easy

I actually like the idea of making world a little more alive. But I'm afraid that PvP encounters in open world will get attention from all sorts of griefers.

How do you think, why regular levellers usually don't participate in low level battlegrounds?
