Phenix Posted September 9, 2011 Report Posted September 9, 2011 Ok so as the title says A duel room.Where pvp is off but you can talk to an npc input the player you wanna duel(they must be in the same room)Once you type the persons name the npc whispers the opposer and asks them if they wanna accept said duel or reject they whisper either accept or reject and then they are entered into a duel.But This room is on a seperate pvp ladder because everytime i go to the pvp room its one guild guild with a pally running around devoing like 3 other guild members and them raping everything then talking shit like they are good.Anyone can gang 3v1 and win but true skill is shown 1v1.I think it should have similar prize to what the normal pvp ladder has, maybe less tokens for each place or more I dont really know but this would make the pvp ladder more challenging and more exciting.With some skills off like devo for example so the duels cant be cheated and the normal @duel command be shut off on this map and you can only duel the same person once every 10min to keep players from just dueling an alt a million times and getting to the top of the ladder.I know its not a perfect idea but its an idea and its quite simple to make the npc and everything like 10min worth of work.Feedback would be nice.Thanks 1
hazel Posted September 9, 2011 Report Posted September 9, 2011 Ive seen the same pvp npc in Battle Of Immortals (much like RO). Ur idea is much the same as the game's. But yah, it would be nice to call just 1 person to a pvp room instead of the whole guild ganging 1 person inside. Also u forgot to mention, that all names that are online must be in the npc n u can just click on that name n whisper for a pvp challenge. But i think there is a downside for putting every names that are online in the npc, probably the time it takes to create an npc i think :)
Phenix Posted September 9, 2011 Author Report Posted September 9, 2011 Well My idea wouldnt be a server wide script it would be localized to one certain map so you would only have to use the function that shows all character names on that certain map.Say Im in that map and I wanna duel player a but he is in for_fild It wouldnt be possible because hes not on that map but if i wanna duel player b and he is on that map his name would show in the npc and id be able to send the duel request from the npc.Its sound difficult but its really not althought your idea of everyones name from in said map is much better then typing their name.And if you put everyones name from the whole server imagine the pages you would have to go threw to find that person.But I see what your saying about everyones names.Maybe have people listed on that map then maybe an input option so you can challenge people outside of that map then the npc will warp them onto the map to start the duel.
rasko Posted September 9, 2011 Report Posted September 9, 2011 I like the idea, but I think there are easier and less complicated ways of doing it, such as several pvp rooms that are blocked off once entered by 2+ people, these rooms could all be on the same map, just in separate cells, and with warping turned off. Another thing is if you really want to duel someone 1 vs 1 you can just whisper them and @go to any town other than pront/fcity and be fine.
Dudu Posted September 9, 2011 Report Posted September 9, 2011 This suggestion already got rejected, plus if you want to 1v1 someone, just pm them, if you cant afford the ganging in pvp room, just dont go. Pvp Room is meant to be a gang vs gang, since you are laddering and you do need backup, and you will always have a guild against you so its basically that.Plus, its a worthless coding npc.
Mint Posted September 9, 2011 Report Posted September 9, 2011 I like the idea of an NPC like this to replace anhillation? :o Maybe a NPC where you can sign up weekly for a 1v1 duel event? where contestants will be chosen randomly like a tournament? :3 Think it's an idea for a different thread though

Dudu Posted September 9, 2011 Report Posted September 9, 2011 Taking this personal son? Im just giving you reasons of why it got rejected. If you cant stand a gang, sadly i cant give you another choice other than getting a gang or backing out.
Kittie Posted September 9, 2011 Report Posted September 9, 2011 I thought the @duel command existed for a reason. 1
Kittie Posted September 9, 2011 Report Posted September 9, 2011 You could just make a map where PVP ladder kills count, but PVP is off, so you use @duel instead of an npc to initiate duels. Much more simpler imo. 1
Bishop Posted September 9, 2011 Report Posted September 9, 2011 (edited) I think reducing the cooldown on @duel would be an easier and better solution to the 'problem'. However these duels cant be counted for pvp ladder cause people would just duel themselfs and feed their own character kills on any given map with @duel enabled. As for your suggestion to the npc and 1 on 1 room. It had been rejected before, making a private room with just 2 players makes it very easy to cheat. Aside from that, letting one player duel another just once every 10 minutes is not really a solution to the feeding either. People can easily continue to change characters in the proces to keep on feeding themselfs. I know its not a perfect idea but its an idea and its quite simple to make the npc and everything like 10min worth of work.Feedback would be nice.Thanks I don't want to be rude, but what are you basing this estimated time value on ? o.o Edited September 9, 2011 by Bishop

It can also be pretty easy for players to fake duels(not ygging etc) as others have said @duel is an easy solution if you want to 1 v 1 . A 1 vs. 1 PvP room would be far too problematic/abusable, so no. On top of that this was already suggested and rejected before.Topic. Edited September 9, 2011 by Seraphine
supream Posted September 10, 2011 Report Posted September 10, 2011 if there was a room where you could do this where storage and other commands are disabled and it didnt count towards ladder i would agree.
supream Posted September 10, 2011 Report Posted September 10, 2011 can still duel on maps that let u use storage.
Levis Posted October 6, 2011 Report Posted October 6, 2011 Reduce the cool down of @duel on regular maps and we are fine. Thank you.
