Just in-game idea. Any possibility of a cross-server arena? Even if it's like only 1 portal?

Having done both a buyback merch on weekly and buying from pmerch via armoury the next obvious thing to add in is a buyback merch on every server that sells everying sold to other merchants or even binned items. (Forgotten how it works exactly)

Dont ask for cross server item buyback though!

Could use variant of copy char to alpha or pvp server. Copy from any server to alpha then fight there. Dont get copied back.

Instead of 1d2 or whatever it is make it half stat dmg or something. Then add add a perk that gives a char full stat dmg when weilding non weapon. Dunno what the perk is called or how you get it.

We need BIG BIG BIG BIG BIG BIG BIG BIG BIG BIG gold sinks. So far buying at IKEA is nice but I want MOAR!
I would love to see things like perks that deducts gold for extra xp or something :)
Like when you kill a dragon, you will lose double the gold it gives you normally and increase the xp gained from it by 1.5 times. Not sure how unfair that would be in Epic or Hero.
Or trade gold for coins used in that teleportation center.
A blacksmith to duplicate your weaponry or even upgrade it.
A special pet that inreases inventory but deducts like 1k gold every 30 min.
Gambler class! :p
A tour guide who shows you through all of New Sosaria.
Mass produce gold nuggets or gold ingots to donate to a pyramid in the desert.
Pickpocket skill to snatch wallets from other players.
Paper money to burn for the deceased!
Spying orb somewhere where you can watch people screens for a certain fee.
Information broker
Lure dragons with gold!
Make money great again!

With the addition of buying from the website let us set the trade option to something we'd trade an item for.

Ex: Vamp Short Sword+8 for a Vamp Machete+8.

The addition of a long cooldown ability (300 seconds to 600 seconds) that helps deal with 3x3 or hybrids similar to what vampires have with bloodlust and preservation.

Maybe you can gain charges of this ability by meditating at a shrine or at an altar.

3x stats for NG (instead of 2x) to match the weekly/monthly server. With 2x stats, fighters can't have max movement speed and 9:1 weapon ratio.

Also, a level 500 character on regular would have a little over 3000 stats, so the power level would be closer across the servers.

Makes sense to have all servers about even. You sure reg and pd are close to even? Im not entirely sold on that (though i dont have a max lvl on reg sooooo....).

One of my best posts eh? Now i have a gauge to strive for in posting better. :p

I still am thinking about working on a paper and pencil version of euo. Failing that i'll nick some ideas and make a D&D campaign out of it. Depends if i can get out of this rocking chair by bribing this cat on my lap with a treat.

Nope, a level 1000 PD character will have a little more than 5k stats without remort and close to 5k with remort at level 75. I don't think it's that big of deal that PD characters are stronger end game, they do have to survive until level 1000 and all.

A paper and pencil version of EUO would be a mind-bending endeavor to say the least. The maps alone would require a three-ring binder notebook. Pulling that off would make you the Peter Jackson of D&D campaigns. ;-)

Here's a quick and probably bad idea I had about making defense more useful.

Idea: If you have a high enough def that it counters a mage's AS, there's a random chance of 'blocking' a spell, aka having it do minimal damage. There's a cap on the 'block' chance (maybe 20%?), so it keeps you on your toes and you still will need mr or hp to take a good hit.

Exception: Kill spell won't take def into account. Nor do spells that don't do hit point damage.

For Mages: I didn't want this update to nerf player mages vs mobs, but I think this shouldn't really change their playstyle, because 1. you usually have enough AS against mobs, 2. If you don't, the mob probably has tons of MR anyways, and 3. XC ignores this. In the rare case this becomes a problem, you could equip a diamond staff, but even then remember the block chance isn't that high.

I'm not too sure about this idea. Problem is, players are often trying to hit a certain MR target as soon as possible, and when 100 MR can be the difference between 60 and 15 damage, there's not much room for anything else. I could see this change being useful for those who have enough MR already or don't have the MR gear/the creature has epic int levels, but otherwise not really.
