zealex.9410 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Ya, Reputations are imo areally good idea for the game going forward which sadly isnt really in the game yet. The concept of reputations is quite simple, they are another form of masteries but not quite. *The concept:* Reputations are map specific masteries which purpose is to provide a sense of pride and accomp-- no, its to provide long term engagememt to specific maps for rewards. *The way they work:* Basically unlike other masteries they arent made with completion within a few days in mind. They are built with the idea that the player will comeback every day to the map to do the content of said map (if he wants to get the goods in least amount of time). *Why not make them normal masteries then?* Because unlike normal masteries where you get exp from matters alot more. Normal masteries are tied to a region, reputations are tied to their specific maps. The main way to get reputation is through the map specific dailies which can be done once and give ALOT of reputation xp. Other than than completing events on that specific map also rewards u with less xp that isnt timegated. This would work alongside the maps being rewarding on their own so doing the event shouldnt feel like a chore because "gotta grind them reps" To start the reputation u need to talk to a specific Npc for each map. As with many other features of the expansion reputations could be added to living world maps to give them alot more value and keep u busy in the down time. *ATTENTION:* As i said these are long term. U shouldnt expect casually playing the game to have them unlocked the first week. In theory u will prob be able to unlock them in a week or a week and 3 days, but thats gonna be a week and 3 days of you playing for 10+ hours on that 1 map. This is more of a thing u would do over the course of a month or so. *Rewards:* Each reputation lvl (like mastery lvls) will come with its own set of rewards. For each lvl u will be able to go back to the Npc of which u started the rep from and he will have a tiered shop. U then can go to the tier of which u completed and pick the rewards. (Now the rewads can have a small currency cost to not just be " oh i finished it and i got everything from that tier at once for no gold" but nothing "crazy" like the cost of the griffon ( for early tiers)). Ofc higher tiers will come with better things for you to show off with the highest having the best stuff. Rewards can be armor skins, weapon skins, tonics, minis ( idk about these), titles etc. The highest tier id wish it could have mount skins and such, but i dont see that happening so it could have auras and maybe legendary gifts ( for new legendaries if by 2020 we are done with the hot ones and they decide to sell a new set).

Linken.6345 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 I wouldent want anet to put reputation grind into the game tbh. And even if they did do you think they would put armor weapon and mount skins into the pot? Maybe a armor set over 6 episodes and 6 maps mate and thats a big maybe.

Armor skins not armor sets. Armor skins such as the se3 stuff that are like outfit parts. As for the grind of in the "minority" that finished pof in the first 5 to 6 days so thats where im comming from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normal > masteries are tied to a region, reputations are > tied to their specific maps. Which makes masteries sound better as it's better to be based on a region than a specific map. I like Auric Basin. I already have the least amount of currency in B... well Brink I have a ton because I was stuck there for what felt like a billion years trying to get mastery points for the glider... BUT have the least amount of currency in the others because I just don't like those maps. > The main way to get reputation is through the > map specific dailies which can be done once > and give ALOT of reputation xp. The "main" way? That would mean the main way is based on praying that daily for that map even shows up.

So I'm now I'm sitting in a place I hate like Dredgehaunt or Tangled Depths or Desolation to farm events for "less xp" reputation. This isn't sounding like pride and accomplishment.

Okay... listening... > As with many other features of the expansion > reputations could be added to living world > maps to give them alot more value and keep u > busy in the down time. Yeah. No. Another map I don't like from Living World is Draconis Mons, Bloodstone Fen, and Istan. I'm getting my value from going to maps I actually like going to, playing, "farming", and whatever. > *ATTENTION:* You... kind of lost it with some of these suggestions, but I'm listening still. > As i said these are long term.

And knowing me, those days I have 10+ hours to bloody waste I WOULD try and do that to get it over with as I don't like this kind of grinding for "Reputation" nonsense.

"a month or so" would be let's say 6 weeks. Meaning around 2 hours a day on a single map... that isn't Dragon's Stand and not a map I'm trying to 100% for map completion... yaaaaay? Oh, and I guess Silverwastes too as you can be there for about 2 hours if you do the meta twice. > *Rewards:* This will be good... > Each reputation lvl (like mastery lvls) will come > with its own set of rewards.

What currency. Normal copper/silver/gold? Map currency? Unbound/Volitile? Also "nothing crazy like the cost of the Griffon". How "crazy" though? To have to farm the reputation like this much to even unlock this thing it has to be decent. > Ofc higher tiers will come with better things for > you to show off with the highest having the > best stuff.

The armour/weapon skins sounds nice. Tonics, unless I can use the humanoid ones with mounts, I don't want anymore. Already regret getting that Kodan one in Bitterfrost as I thought I could've used it on my Raptor when I got it. Minis I have 0 care for, and to buy titles (NOT GOING TO MENTION THE "I'm rich, you know" ONE AS IT'S STILL ACHIEVEMENT RELATED) sound meh to me. Will all these titles be achievement based too? how much achievement points? how much the cost? Once again, you said "not as crazy as Griffon", but that "I'm rich, you know" one makes the Griffon looks like a 5 slot pouch I can buy in Shaemoor. I loathe Auras and until I can turn off footprints, I don't want Legendaries. BUT this isn't about me of course, so once again still for those that do like Auras and Legendaries and Minis and whatever else... need prices. That's all it comes down to after putting a meaningless and pointless grind into the game. How. Much. Oh, and just to say. I'm 1,000,000% against this. Also before I forget, what legendaries, minis, skins, titles can I unlock in Metrica Province? I just want to know. Or Queensdale? Snowden?

Since its next expansion stuff if it get implemented its those expansions maps and maybe the ones going forward.

zealex.9410 Posted January 11, 2018 Author Share Posted January 11, 2018 There seems to me a misunderstanding. This wont be added to all the maps. just the Expac maps and the lw ones for after expansion 3. After that if its successful the devs could consider adding it to new maps every now and then.

It does hurt people, and feed those who have a problem with the game ( i don't have nothing here to do but still i pretend to have something, even useless as farming reputation ). The moment you realize that you are bored, you should stop for a while and try to realize that 1. You don't have a subscription. 2.

Its like telling me "raids hurt ppl who dont do them while feed those who hate the game" or "masteries hurt ppl who dont like them while also feed ppl who hate the game" 1. Not having a subscription is no reason to keep ppl from suggesting ideas. 2. Id prefer my friends to leave less often if ever to not have to come back more often. 3.

That would be reputation system that for each milestone would have a quest like some of the ones we got with the griffon or the reforging of caladbolg.
