Guilds War Tp Scroll

So, one of the annoying this about wars is that you have to be in the territory. Now, this would change with the war tp scroll. Basically, you right-click it when the countdown of the war is starting, and once it starts, you'll instantly get teleported to the middle of the territory. Of course, this assumes that you still need to be in the territory in 1.20 and that you'll be returned to your previous spot before the war once it ends.

Spoiler: Rules

- This would cost 2-7 sp depending on distance (I may change this later depending on feedback)
- The player has to have discovered the area before fast traveling there
- Someone has to be there to start the war, we aren't doing remote wars, no way
- This won't be cheap - I have a few ideas listed below on how this could work:

Spoiler: Idea 1

Make them vicinity based, so you could buy 3 tiers of scrolls (small area, medium area, whole map)

- small would be 500 blocks in all directions (similar to going from delats to almj, this would be for example your almost there but not quite and you need to scroll tp, I actually can see this being super useful. For example, my guild wars a lot of places to get exp, so boing able to go halfway then using a scroll (bc I have a bad horse) could be beneficial)
- medium would be 1.5k blocks, similar to the distance from Cinfras to Theased
- Whole map is quite obvious, it covers the whole map with tp allowance

I'm not good with prices, but my ideas is 1eb, 4eb, 8eb.

Spoiler: Idea 2

Just make it expensive like 16eb or smth

Spoiler: Idea 3

Maybe also the guild could pay for the cost, and it could be 1k per tp, and war tp scrolls would instead just be a command. You would travel along the same trade routs as emeralds, and you would have to wait for everything to arrive before starting a war (you, other players using the command, and the emeralds needed to start the war)

Spoiler: Edits

Edit (12/27/20):
- added this section
- changed sp amount from 2-3 to 2-7
- changed some spelling/gramatical issues

Edit (12/30/20):
- Change prices in idea 2 and 1
- add "idea 3"

 

4 or 5 eb is not 'hella expensive'.
Maybe for a TP scroll, but in general it just isn't.

 

true, maybe a diff price, any suggestions?

Do people like idea one or idea 2? (I want to know wich one I should put time into figuring out prices)

Make it cost Soul Points not emeralds because making it cost emeralds would require that you increase the price A LOT, 4 or 5 EB is not a lot for a lvl 105 with 13 accounts, and at the same time making it cost more emeralds just screws over slightly more casual players. One of my friends is lvl 96 on his main account and has been playing for nearly a year, probably more often than me, and yet somehow he currently only has 16 EB, while I have 20 LE at lvl 91. At the same time other people who have been playing for a long time have stacks and stacks of LE and a few EB wouldn't be anything to them.
If you make it cost soul points the cost will be pretty much universal since no matter how much you grind or how much lootrunning you do you'll never get over 15 soul points.

You can make the SP cost pretty insane as well, maybe 6 or 7 soul points or more for a whole map teleport. But just make sure it's not so much that it completely cripples that class for the next few days.

 

Hmmm, I've always been so tied up with emeralds as a player (aka I'm poor) ATM I've never really considered using soul pts, but yea, one TP scroll that uses more SP the farther you go would make a lot more sense, especially as wars are aimed at high lv players...

what about 16eb? (~1k)

Spoiler: me being dumb

wait your saying it's supposed to take a year to reach lv 96?

just hit 105 (hoping they don't rewind, although I also am a proponent of a rollback as well, but this is a discussion for another time)
I only have ~35le, so I get where you're coming from.

 

Personally, I don't think this is needed. Teleport Scrolls are intended for you to get to places in general, including spells and horses. You've also got to describe where the "middle" is. War zones aren't just for major towns like Detlas and Cinfras, it's for every single territory which means they would need to make a spawn point for every single terrain in the map, and some terrain gets complicated.

It becomes even more complicated as you get to areas like The Realm of Light where you need to complete a questline and wear a piece of gear to access the area. Same goes for Temple of Legends. Does it teleport you someplace else or do you lose access to the War Teleport Scroll in the meantime? There are other complications such as what happens if you've never been to the area? The system would get very complicated as it will have to check where you are warring and browse over your discoveries.

In conclusion, I think it's too complicated for something that isn't big or important, but with that said, I don't do wars much so I'm not sure.

 

it would be where the guild flag is bc basically every territory has one, also war is being revamped in 1.20 (this suggestion would probs be implemented after the release of that) so it would TP you to the arena anyways

1: war is being totally revamped in 1.20 so it may not matter as much for the availability
2: pls make sure to read the suggestion in its entirety before commenting:

that would fix the issue of quest reqs and whatnot.

well yes, your not in a guild, although I can assure you doing a lot of wars in places not right next to each other isn't the most exiting.

 

bump 1/5 done!
