The server pvp is nearly dead, or rather almost never existed.

 

I suggest that more changes are made in BG. Reduce costs of Glorious items, which is what most want as much as you try to force other equips, or/and make each BG give to the players at the end a dozen of condesed white potion to be used on WoE or BGs.

Once this is done BG will be more appealing http://leika-ro.net/...unds/#entry6000

White siege potions will probably be buyable using the badges earned in BG.

As for PvP, it never usually had rewards beyond bragging rights anyway. It's almost understandable when it's not popular.

Glorious gear is already multiple times easier to obtain due to unified and tradeable badges, increased badge and points gain, removal of cooldown between matches and reduction of team sizes.

 

As for your other suggestion, I had in mind providing every player that joins a match with a certain amount of special potions that are removed when the match finishes or upon quitting manually, this would even things a little.

Otherwise, BGs won't be turned into farming grounds for WoE supplies, which doesn't adress the issue of low PvP interest at all but creates new problems instead.

 

 

On the other hand, we've got some things planned, such as implementing multiple team size brackets, merging in-game menu with waiting rooms, allowing for both random and premade teams and adapting eamod's BG conquest for hercules (needs quite a few bug fixes).

How about a PvP announcer? Not for BG i mean for the normal PvP rooms like when someone enters there will be a  global announcment.

In other hand, we got no players at all playing BG witch multiplies the difficulty of geting one.

If you turn WoE a farming grounds for woe, you get peoples on BG playing and enjoying PvP. What problem exactly bring? Better pots still be on PvM. 

Utilize pots in BG is not fun at all, only makes the BG most time consuming

Yeah, gonna work on that.

Which means people simply aren't interested in BGs. They've been already made way more accessible due to player's feedback.

So, what can we do about it? This is something that needs a lot more brainstorming, making the best best PvP gear even faster to obtain (when it's already been made multiple times easier) isn't exactly a solution or a good idea.

How can we make BGs (and I mean BGs, not the involved rewards) more appealing and accessible? I'd like to hear some ideas.

Not exactly, we will have people that aren't interested in BGs, farming them in the easiest and fastest way possible in order to farm those pots, which will inevitably involve multiclienting and arranged matches.
All of this would only ruin the experience for people that actually want to play BGs, not farm.

But let's assume we've implemented an option to exchange badges/points for potions, which potions should those be? I highly doubt anyone is going to spend badges on condensed whites instead of saving them for the gear, so what else could we add that's balanced?

My idea was to even the playing ground a little bit, because you will always have people mashing consumables in BGs, with this, people that can't afford to do that would have a better chance.
In fact, we could disable all recovery consumables that aren't those special ones inside so everyone would have the same set amount.

I don't quite get you in this aspect though, you want BGs to award pots but are against people using them?

[Tesdey]

I'm probably a rare and ancient specimen.

 

I always liked PvP and BG, but I always thought that pot use in these places a waste of time, and I was lucky(?) that users of the servers that I was, thought the same of me. Good part of the consumables I spend only in WoE.

 

If you give pots that can be used on BG and WoE, people at lest will have a choice where will want to spend it.
