New PvP battle type, other rewards besides honor points and lvl 50 expansion

New pvp battle type
During the major server fallouts a little while ago i went looking for another game and stumbled upon Kings Road. (Yes, it was recommended on bigpoint.com, so no worries mods)
It is a bit DSO like, but different. The game has some pvp,but again... different.
Instead of players killing each other, 2 player end up in an arena where different monsters spawn in several waves. Each wave starting when all monsters of the previous wave had been killed. So it's not a battles of 'who can kill who' but of 'who can get the most points killing monsters'.
For example:
Wave 1: 10 evil dwarves, 4 turrets (with a lot of hp)
Wave 2: 10 small statues (1 hp, so always a 1 hit kill), 10 dwarven drones (in kingsroad they used suicide monsters)
Wave 3: similar to wave 2
Wave 4: 10 evil dwarves, 4 turrets, 1 or 2 minibosses
Wave 5 and 6: similar to wave 2
Wave 7: Similar to wave 4 + the dragon you find in front of the entrance to destructor.

Every time a player dies, he respawns after 5 seconds (in that time the other player can keep killing and earn more points).

Dwarven drones and small statues give 1 point. Evil dwarves and turrets give 2 points. Minibosses give 3 points and the dragon gives 4 points.

Of course this type of system is vulnerable to kill steals, so maybe the most points could be rewarded to the one who dealt the most damage or the points can be devided in accordance to the amount of damage dealt. The player with the most points wins and gets the most honor points.

Rewards besides honor points
For a while i am convinced that players should be rewarded for playing pvp battles with other then honor points. You may spend 10 hours of farming and get all kinds of stuff, like gold, ander and GoP. However, after spending 10 hours on pvp, you get nothing but honor points. Is the king too greedy to reward the competitors in his arena with some gold? Or is he just too poor?

Lvl 50 expansion
Since the other pvp types and their quests are sort of linked to a certain lvl, area and theme, i believe this pvp type could be (should be) introduced with the lvl 50 expansion. Monsters of the lvl 50 maps should be used and the pvp type, or at least the quests should be available for lvl 45 and up only.

So yeah, personally i would really like this type of arena matches. Please describe below what you think about it, pros, cons and additional ideas.

Btw, @ forum mods, when do you guys decide to pass our ideas on to the dev team and do we know whether you did that or not? I'd really like to know, cause if that never happens, what would be the point of sharing our ideas here?

 

You get my full support an ANY variation in PVP types. Current variations are stale and ranks/titles reflect longevity and persistence much more than skill or strength. A complete makeover would be welcome.
