Trials of valour ideas: thread

Author Content Date
As most know we’re currently working on a survival based event named trials of valour (or horde). This is essentially waves that spawn which drop valour and also has bosses that spawn too sporadically.

Please post your ideas here on what else you’d like to see in this event.

Monsters to drop their normal drop file x4 with valour dropping on every kill.
every 5th round reward 5 valour multiplier 5,10,15 ect.

Room should only be allowed to be entered once every 24-hour. A scroll to be collected from a npc that will only hand out once a day non tradable. The event to be ran every soma day (4hours) time18*.

Think valor every kill would be to much, but agree the event could do with being every soma day but only able to enter once a day

Would perfer a portal from tyt (for example) to horde, so you can see who's going

Think we need to be aiming for more valor than where currently getting from drops, as don't think the drop rates enough to supply ppl enough weaps/armor to upgrade

Would perfer normal drops (mag like drops) , from the mobs to boost the reward for doing the event rather than just feeling like your not getting enough valor.

Feel free to add a round with a few whelp like 1 shot mobs, don't think ppl will mind having to use a couple resi per event (tho again not every round please as I'd be thinking of just a couple resi and not 20+ per event) think there's enough barr sinks in atm that your running the risk of pushing the ppl who not got alot of barr out the game

Would perfer to have all new mobs with mag like drops (could tailor the drops over the whole range of mobs rather than all on every mob)

Mix the mobs up, so some int mobs with high dex, int mobs with high str, melee mobs ect ect ect

Random rounds if possible so we can't get used to which round is which mob

All mobs to have range and change target on hit, so it's not just 1 person taking the hits

Boss mobs every few rounds(could just use the skins of the rounds for boss and enlarge them for example) it its mag like drops on mobs the boss could just have a higher drop rate of that mobs drops

1) Drops limited to Scrolls of Valour only or tokens that are later exchanged from an NPC for scrolls of Valour
(Otherwise it will become a farming area for drops and monopolised )

2) It could be trialed as a PK area to see if it is monopolised, if it is abused, make it PK free

3) Mobs should not penalise different character classes

4) Randomise the timing of the event to reduce the prejudice against players who are not able to play during normal working hours

5) Limit events to prevent "professional" Soma players quickly accumulating vast treasure troves of Valour equipment (and then selling them for cash)

6) Consider making Valour items non-trade-able

Something also to think about

I'd perfer if all the horde mobs have range, however if they do then melee range would kinda rule out mage casting

Not sure how feasible it is for melee mobs to not interupt magic, just for pve purposes anyway

Should be a npc linked to conti ownership and resides there. At least in my opinion.

Will normal mobs on all maps continue to drop valour scrolls or is this hoard map going to be only way to get valour scrolls from drops?

This hoard map imho should be like negamare once a soma day. This way it gives everyone a chance to take part depending on there time zone, if it’s limited to once a real life day or worse once a week then I would just bin it and spend the time on something that will be worthwhile for all players all the time.

Opens every 4 hours (soma day) for 1hour, but can only enter once every 24hours.

I'd assume horde will become the only method to get valor once its in, thus I'd like to be able to achieve enough valor, think atm valor rates abit on the low side and the only thing keeping ppl going is quests and then haloween valor letters

And I'd like the event to be able to do daily, if its opens every 4hours (1 soma day) then it gives all timezones time to enter when they wish, but you would only be able to enter once in a 24 hour period

Open 24/7 with the exception of when the bosses spawn there a reward for dealing with the waves of mobs so it should be closed off during this period to prevent players attending solely for bosses.

Anything less or limiting the time to attend is just a waste of time and effort.

could have this - semi instanced. so you can go in with yours own team.

have it only able to go in t2 t8 t14 t20. (lasting an hour before being kicked or on death)

then have a larger one once a week with harder mobs / larger groups / more drops etc.

would defo need to implement some sort of auto pickup for valour from monsters on kill.

will the higher monsters be dropping items? or just valour.

Many people play solo with no ability to "team up". Can we have mobs that can be solo killed please

can you make valour that are dropped inside the room be shared beatween the party members ?
for a small period of time
for eg lets say the party has gained 100valour from the mobs
being able to split it around the party members would be very handy

Just would be wary of the last hit sort of thing. Since I've played I've mostly been a mage and on Hsoma it was impossible to compete with nega knuck at bosses so it became a what's the point in going to the boss kind of scenario. Wouldn't want it to turn into a 3/4 mega geared nega knux users getting richer and richer.

Reward teamplay. Passive valour gains, x amount per wave per person. Make it benefit everyone that everyone else survives.

Opens say time 16, door closes t17 and event starts

So you have to be there at the start

The idea would be you carry on till your dead, so some waves would be pot wastes, getting considerably harder each wave to wittle more and more out

Tho would need to look at average rounds to balance out amount of valor ppl are getting

Ideally lasting a hour and ramping up in difficulty after that (not just ending)
