Weekend Perk Event Ideas

[Arslajin]

On the heels of the July 4th weekend event, I was thinking about some more events for coming weekends. This thread is intended to collect ideas from anyone who has them.

Here's a list of current ideas, which I think we'll do, I'll start a thread in the announcements forum with a calendar for the planned events.

• Double XP
• Half defeat XP and half recover time
• Double mature speed (time and experience)
• Double enlights speed again
• Skill boost
• Half rank and abil XP (player suggestion)
• Half zone reset timers (player suggestion, will speed up shop loads among other things)

Here are some additional ideas that I'll need to think about and look into more:

• Abilities fire twice as frequently
• Enhanced items that decay after the weekend (player suggestion)
• +stats weekend (i.e. +5 to each stat)
• Werewolf weekend (player suggestion, lycanthrope for everyone!)

Just throwing a few out there:

No guards weekend. Those that watch the entrances into the most vaunted places need a vacation, lets give them one! This doesn't include factions.

No travel fatigue weekend

Tournament weekend - Absolute mayhem. Freedom to build a single character and go through a gauntlet and even against each other. This would probably require more hands.
...which brings me to my other idea...
Free build weekend - Create a single character with the perfect stat spread (assuming 15pt matures) and instant maxed skills in whatever career path. Character dies immediately after the weekend

Random ability weekend - Gain a new random ability upon logging in that rotates to a new one every so often.

We can do a tournament in August in the arena with prizes.

Another idea, a bloody weekend -- players get 3x chance to crit, mobs 2x.

Another idea, a bloody weekend -- players get 3x chance to crit, mobs 2x.

Can we disable the Cripple title during that event, if it happens?

Rune Hunt Weekend - Drop rates for runes increased
Gear Hunt Weekend - Bypasses the normal time until item pops with a % chance that it will pop
Regen Weekend - HP and Fatigue regen rates in combat greatly increased
All Ability Weekend - Characters have all abilities for all their ranks active instead of just the chosen ones. Same with NPCs if applicable?
