I know they are probably already done... etc. But thought this could be fun and maybe they could use it in the future. Here is mine.

A custom event pick that is a new design, 1 for Kami 1 for Karavan. And it never degrades. If it had a new animation with it that would be cool too. instead of the blue streak it could streak some message or be sparkly or somehting.

A title, that would be nice, and different from the Karavan/Kami Champion as they signify the Nexus Event. Maybe Karavan Faithful or something.


I like sparkly.

Noin.

Nice one Noin.

Various things got speculated on so far ingame, going from pneumatic karavan harvesting tools to fluffy Kami cuddle toys. (now who wouldn' t want to have one or the other?)

There' s some things I personally would like to see, if not now, maybe after another possible faction based event.

I like your idea about the harvesting tools Noin, but I' ll add something on top of that: faith-based benefits. For instance a Karavan pick could slightly improve the rate of your extraction actions (like 10% or so, what already is a lot over time) but at the risk of depleting the area faster (slightly higher rate of KT lowering; all mats count double towards it for instance). The Kami picks could just have the reversed effect; slightly slower extraction but the amount of materials you forage only counts half towards the KT. It would totally fit into the background of each faction so far and both factions really don' t have a benefit or penalty on how they interact with their surroundings and material deposits.

If not on harvesting tools, it could maybe become available as a stanza brick; either as a regular brick to be bought at the temple or handed out as a reward after completion of a rite.

Also, various animation bricks that only add a visual effect to your spells, free of casting cost, with a distinct hint to each faith correspondantly. Customization and signature spells would be keywords here.

Craftingplans for Karavan trenchcoats or some Kamist casting/foraging gear!


I guess we' ll have to wait a bit longer now to see what the 'gods' have in store for us after all this; but I hope they read up on this post if they aren' t to busy putting their lego' s togheter at the moment. ;)

Nerfing the Kami, eh? :/

Also...please, please some leeway if the rewards are based on honor that someone who has x999 points can still blag something that 'costs' x999+1.

Outposts would be the natural choice. Guilds with high fighting get the outposts near the "war front" and guilds with harvest honor get farms, etc.

On top of that, shiny armour to all with XX+ honor.

Enchantable picks that would be nice :)

And euhm can we get an idea of how many honor points you need to get a reward? Just to know how much more effort I need to put in my useless digging ;)

I would like a pet yubo that I can name. Unlike mounts, it could follow me when I port. It would need permanent invulnerablity (hey, it is a gift from the gods), and I'd like to be able to teach it to do some of it's more charming yubo animations on the target of my choice.

Also, as I suggested awhile back, I'd really like a /kamidance and /kamiclap emote.

edit: Just thought of this one. I'd like a pick of spell reflection. It would lower your extraction rate as a trade off, so you wouldn't want to use it all the time - but when equiped all offensive spells cast on you would return to sender.

And I would also like some pie.

And please, please, please! Let us just buy the stuff. Don't make us trade in our honor points for tokens, and those tokens in for larger tokens, and then those in for the prize. And all transactions in sets of no more than 20.

for the karavan with uber fame a space ship would be nice
for the Kami with uber fame how about a teleporting spell, if not usable on everyone then atleast a self-cast

weapons
karavan:
a high power arm cannon that uses stam as ammo.
Kami:
a stave that shoot magical blasts of energy that use sap but give range xp

extras:
a mysterious card that says access grated on it and has your name on it - karavan
a gem card the gem of the kami faithful that has your name ingraved on it. The card and the gem would allow you accuss some faction excusive areas later on in the game.
