It would be cool to have an upcoming season based on enhancing Adventure PVP and HG.
The HG improvements are so many I won't even start on this thread, but basically Rare overhauling HG and making the numerous changes the community have been asking for would be awesome.
For adventure pvp I have a few ideas to add for the season.
*Ship grapple clamps-new tool that is added to ships. Only works on same ship types. Example, if a galleon rams or pulls up next to an enemy galleon, they can activate the grapple clamp (either having it on the side of the ship, on the grapple gun, or a throwable with one end attached to the ship. Open to suggestions) that locks the ships together. The enemy can destroy the grapple clamp by attacking the clamp. Sloop is 200 dmg, brig 450 dmg, galleon 700 dmg. The grapple would be a great way for ships to lock onto each other and give crews a chance to board and fight, without their ships veering away from each other. If a ship is grappled, the cannons on the sides of the ship that are locked do not work, until they are separated.
*PVP Man-O-War world event. (We should have rotating PVE and PVP world events coinciding at the same time. The Man-O-War would be one of a few PVP world events.)
Man-O-War rises up out of the water and begins sailing around the map. Ship is not crewed, cannot be manned, has no cannons, and cannot be damaged. Is as large as the Burning Blade but has a lot more access points for different decks and fighting platforms on the yardarms. Players that board the ship fight each other with hand weapons. No throwables will work or cause dmg to players on the ship. This event will have a 1 hour time limit. No one wins or loses or gets points. This is to promote PVP in hopefully a healthy way for fun.
Commendations can be super simple with X amount of kills with specific weapons to also promote trying out different weapons on the ship. Simply participating in the event by getting 1 kill will count and a comm can exist to participate in 30 Man-O-War events for a possible jacket or some reward. Again, no one wins or loses anything or gains gold, this event should just be for people wanting to PVP on an unsinkable ship without having to do any naval. Players that die on the ship will go not go to the ferry but instead have the option to click respawn or leave event. If they click to respawn, they will after 10-15 seconds. Players who do not want to sail to the Man-O-War in order to board it can go to 5 different portals scattered across the map. 1 will be at Sea Dogs Tavern and the other 4 will be randomly located on islands marked on the map kind of like how Flameheart skelly camps are. When players or crews go through the portal, a bell will ring on the Man-O-War notifying the players onboard that others will be spawning in shortly. Numerous food barrels will be scattered around the ship filled with only pineapples.
I have a few more ideas for a PVP centric season, but don't want to overcrowd this thread so I'll stop here.
