A new look to the PvP system

Okay, since that we're having problems with the Avenger System, I'm thinking about a Bounty System on Bullies. It'll work like this:

- The bounty on the bully's head rises on each victim he/she kills.
- If the bully with the bounty gets killed, the one who kills him will get the gold/karma based on the bounty. The victim(s) will also get half the gold/karma from it as compensation.
- Abusing this system is not allowed, you are not to make a deal with someone just to kill you so that you can kill the 'bully' back and split the bounty.
- If a group kills the bully, the bounty will be split among them.
- Once the bully has killed more than 30 (Instead of the usual 10 limit), the recent victim he just killed (meaning the 30th and so on victim) will get the chance to call the Avenger and deal with the bully once and for all, the bounty on the bully will be split to the 30 or more victims.

Well, I think that's all, any comments and violent reactions about this, I'd be happy to hear them from you smile.gif

EDIT: Hmm, I think gold/karma won't be a good idea for the bounty. Perhaps something related to Esteem? The higher the bounty, the larger esteem you and the victims will get. What do you think?

Isn't going to work. Ever. We don't need more gold sources, specially not ones people can abuse, Karma is already easy to get and Esteem is useless as personal compensation.

Afraid he's probably right.

Esteem is only a way for influencers to actually offer to their god to allow people who don't want to actually fight to do so.

So we don't have things like
"I believe in the sanctity of all creations and will never use my abilities against another... now hold on a moment while I go kill these things so my pacifist god has some essence"

Pacifist gods aren't the only ones who use essence.

This is a very, very, very, very, very, very bad idea.

But then, I saw the archery skill propositions, so it isn't that bad by comparison. Only by comparison

How will you be able to get bounty on someone like Kaervas and the likes of him? If this is implemented, he could just kill of everybody (save from his allies, of course) and no one can actually do anything about it. They could try to team, but Its not worth for a group of high-leveled and skilled people to die about 3-5 times each just to kill the likes of them once (from which they will just conglut/vitae or something).
