Ideas to Make NF RvR like the PvP Event (A Level Playing Field)

Thanks for the fun week of PvP Event. I had fun playing 100% autogroup, even though it was frustrating at times getting run over by pre-mades at 40+ tiers.
Loved the instant action, chaos, and no bottle necks, I think everyone else did too. Here some ideas for RvR:

1) Allow you to port to the task zone to random spawn points, just like the event. This gets you instant action, more population in the task zone, and eliminate the bottlenecks at docks and drop off campers.

2) Allow ports to Domination flags, if your realm owns the flag. Again, more people in task zone and instant action.

3) Make exp for RvR kills same as the event (XX # kills needed per level), to encourage non 50's to participate in RvR. More people joining, the better.


Please share other ideas if you have some.

I could see (3) maybe, but (1) and (2) would be really bad for RvR. Without bottlenecks, there's no way to cut off enemy reinforcements or to plan any kind of meaningful strategy for large-scale fights other than "make sure we have more people than they do". (Yes I know there can be more to it than that, but it almost entirely eliminates territory-based strategies.)

What about enable /autogroup in NF ? Obviously bind it within each realm

I haven’t actually thought the cons through properly, but anyway ..

- It would help players who want instant RvR, aren’t really too bothered about the group set up
- Handy feature if you only have an 1hr or two to play. If I have an hour free, sometimes I don’t bother to log on, because by the time I’ve got into a group together and got going it’s time to log off.
- Would help maintain RvR population
- Nice feature for those who don’t take the game too seriously and are true ‘casuals’; sometimes new players who aren’t hardcore can be intimidated by the whole ‘Whats you’re RA spec ?? you got disco ?? What RR you at ?’ Etc
- Players could make new friends
- You could discover new players you play really well with(found this out in recent event)
- Stops players sitting around in Relic Towns bored doing nothing

They don't want low levels in RvR, as it "ruins the experience to be continuously interrupted by a grey caster."

That's why the RvR task doesn't take effect until 35.

That's not the reason...

At one point RvR consisted of streams of grey con players throwing themselves at ennemies to level... It got to a point where it was difficult to rvr just because ppl would port and suicide 24/7.

It became an incredibly absurd and ridiculous dynamic that wasn't sustainable long term.

Remove boats, add teleporters that just spawn you in random places in the enemy realm.


The keep/tower system is outdated and needs to be completely reworked. When people log in and see that they have to boat from the relic town, they just log off.
