Okay here is my Idea, we need ways to use nexus power. We want to fight on prime, novices non coms etc don't want to get eaten. Heres my idea, A city leader walks to the Avenger and gives him 10k nexus power (Or what ever amount can change for whatever reasons.) A list of all the areas in the game on prime comes up and you pick one That place now because free pk. A message goes out to the people in that area that avenger has lifted protection and walaa fights happen. Non coms or what have you can list lazily to the left and leave the area. Or hide in safe places/whatever non coms do.
Oh and I guess there can be some safe places like say, the Colliguem and maybe the guild halls.

Not sure if it should be suggested that the Avenger can be bribed. But perhaps instead of giving it to him, the power could go to another quest or something, the result of which causes an area to be so infused with Aetheric power that the Avenger's eyes cannot pierce into it. Perhaps give those inside, and only those inside, that area a teensy bit of warning, so they can TELEPORT NEXUS or what have you, then the area is free PK for a short while? Give warning to those entering it, too. Something like "The air here thrums with excess Aetheric power." or the like. And finally, prevent cities/communes from being target options by the quest.

Yeah, this wouldn't be abused at all.
Unknown2009-06-04 13:22:21
How would you abuse it?

Nexii have MILLIONS of power.

So them doing a quest is abuse?

Voila. The word is Voila, Krin.
Xavius2009-06-04 15:30:58
Worst idea ever. Let's grant the ability to make any place in the game open PK on the plane where there is no conglutination.

It might work if each org could only do it once a year and no two areas could be done two years in a row, and it only lasted a couple of RL days at most. That way, folks would have to think a little more carefully about where they do it and when and they couldn't just keep an area covered.

If done, areas such as the Beach of Light and Spectre Isle (etc.) should not be included.

Eh, for 10K power, I figure a couple of RL hours is more than fair. Considering how easy it is to get power, we'd need to make it so that it hurts the power reserves.

Why would a org want to spend power to open a area up for open PK?

Someone is trying to kill Globglob. Glomdoring decides to make it open-PK so we can kill anyone who dares to go there.
Celest is trying to light the Beacons. Serenwilde makes the Inner Sea open PK so Glom-wilde can cavort in the waters.
Etc.
(Essentially, for quest-griefage.)

I think a better idea would be to allow organizations the ability to invest power so they may DEFEND an area of some relevance to their organization. Any member of another organization would be open game in this territory. This would only work on Prime (for obvious reasons). Therefore if Celest was trying to light the Beacons, they could ensure they could kill anyone who got in the way who was within the Inner Sea.
The administration would have to decide who can defend what territory, but I think most would be common sense. Most areas are clearly aligned with one city or commune or totally neutral. It might even be neat to see a mechanism in place where organizations could challenge for rights to defend certain neutral areas.

Celest and Seren can fight over the Inner Sea.
That would be fun!
