Hi everyone,

Following on from the announcement in the Game Director letter about the PvP Festival events and daily quests for the PvP server we'd like to involve the community in an aspect of finalizing this system!

The plan is that these events will follow a similar system to the World Bosses where 1 week a month a select Adventure Zone will become a focused PvP Festival zone. This means that during that week whichever Adventure Zone is up in the rotation will become PvP enabled on all servers for the duration of the week and during that time the events will become active.
Additionally, daily quests will become available on the PvP servers and will follow this same rotation of adventure zones but on a daily basis instead. The exception is during the festival week, in which case the daily quests will be fixed to the festival zone and also become accessible on Crom too.

The one difference to the way the world boss system works is that these events will follow a 6 month cycle rather than 12 months, at least in the beginning.

The current adventure zones we have on our list for these PvP events to take place in are:
  • White Sands Isle
  • Kheshatta
  • The Gateway to Khitai
  • Khopsheff Province
  • Tarantia Commons District
  • ???

This is where we want the community to come in, because we need to finalize that last adventure zone in the rotation.
We have to limit the selection slightly because there a number of factors we need to control, specifically making sure there is an alternate adventure zone available if players really want to avoid PvP for a week on Crom and making sure as much as possible we do not limit the number of players who can participate through factors like Premium subscription requirements.

So, get to voting, Hyboria!
