Job: Location/Asset Defense
« on: July 29, 2015, 01:08:33 am »
Kind of simple, but would require a little scripting.

Basically you go to an NPC for a job to protect a location or asset. (Would be nice if multiple people could complete it together)

The location would get marked on your map and you would go to it. PvE enemies would slowly start coming in and it would get progressively harder. Perhaps make an end the fight early condition to make a sneaker more useful. (Assassinate a guarded leader or something)

Some locations could have a really nice vantage point for snipers and others might be really bad. Ghoul horde anyone?!

Just a rough concept, I'm sure implementation may have different specifics.

Uh.... Caravans? The only difference would be that you are at a single location rather than moving through encounters. -1

go to world map>open empty, random encounter>wait and PvE enemies will start attacking you, beggining from rats or mantis and they get progressively stronger

and you can also go there with a group of friends

Hanging out in random encounters, you never have very cool terrain or buildings to hold up in, also it's not very productive. This would involve a reward.

Furthermore, in random encounters you have to wait a very long time for any decent challenge to show up. It would be nice if the reward/time ratio could be comparable to caravans, and there doesn't necessarily have to be friendly NPCs to help you. Perhaps make a very challenging one with good drops. This would be worthy PvE content.

Boss mobs could even be included on the final wave.

Base control is PvP (although with some PvE) feature, and I think he's talking about PvE.

Do it Kilgore. I'd love more PvE things to do and I'm sure many people share such a sentiment.
