More rewards to PKers/Sparrers
 
Pkers and Sparrers are probably the most hard-working graalians in the game, they spend their day doing it. I remember the 40,000 PKs room in Deadwood, it had a ghostly horse mount I think.

Well, bringing more things like that for them would be neat, maybe rooms dedicated to PKs or Spar wins, not hours. Or pieces of furniture that show off their achievements, kinda like the egg-hunting ones, or maybe a hat, who knows. Something that gives value to those numbers filled with effort and time.

Enter my house and check out the thing to the left of the egg-hunting trophy... The top 4-50 sparrers, PKers, and BKers get this, as well as gralats. Top 3 get trophies and even more gralats.

That goes for ranked players, even though is perfect, there should be something that rewards quantity, not quality

if you don't want to blow thousands of hours gaining kills for absolutely no reason then don't PK

McCullough 05-30-2016 02:50 AM

I see reasons why they would get rid of the PK room, but there is an even worse reason to get rid of the hour rooms.

It is kind of simple to get a PK, but that still requires the player to be on and actually kill someone. Of course, there are rooms for the 'more experienced player's (The Fan, or the Zone), but there is nothing to be rewarded for sitting around in Graal City leaving the computer on.

I'd like to see rooms with specific requirements like that again, I haven't played graal long enough to see it, but I would like to see rooms with 40k PK-200k PK around, along with a room for experienced sparrers. Hour rooms are garbage, good thing they have nothing in them but farms.

It would bring a bit more incentive again, there aren't a lot of good reasons why something like this would be removed from the game.

Let's see if something like this could be added.

The reward for quantity is the quantity itself. If you want a reward for your efforts then work your way onto the leaderboards and you can earn your "value to those numbers filled with effort and time."

Most people PK or spar because they enjoy it. They don't need hats or things like that since there's already trophies for them.

Would be nice to have them though. Gets boring after so many spar matches. Having milestones to gain rarer items is always a great option.

The leaderboards replaced "Lifetime" with season, which sucks, because imagine Sarah, with almost 100,000 spars, once she quits for good, her milestone will never be seen again, only by people who met her or the books that not many people read in the Arena's library. I just meant that sparrers and PKers need some privileges just like AFKers have theirs and so towerers.

I pk for goals, not cosmetics

wat

literally every leaderboard incorporates a measure of quantity
PKs and BKs are entirely quantity actually

Even if she got some kind of hat reward or house item for her spar score as you suggested, people still will only notice it as much as the entry in the library. Probably less so, since you'd have to open her profile to see the hat or go in her house to see the furniture. I think seasonal rewards are fine. The people who got huge amounts of pks or spar wins weren't expecting anything for them when they were getting them, because there weren't any rewards back then, as their shouldn't be now. They might have been making their way up the all time boards, but it's gone now and no hat or furniture can replace a name on the leaderboard for all to see. Anyone can try hard and make it up the seasonal leaderboards, and be rewarded for it.

I believe Era has a system implemented were you can get hats or guns based on your PKs or spar wins.

What about the players that don't rank ever but they still have a nice quantity?

Ex: Alexa ranked PKs this season. But there are players with 600,000+ PKs not ranked, with maybe no trophy, no milestone.

Pretty true, but you know, if the hat is good, people ask a lot. I get asked a lot for a strange hat I got in xmas, imagine a 100,000PK hat that looks so good. Is just an idea, have been looking at sparrers lately, there are many that need a spotlight too.

600,000+ PKs is a milestone on it's own though, without the need of a trophy...
What I'm saying is that the actual stat IS the trophy in itself. If you struggled and made your way up to earn high numbers like that, the number itself would be much more meaningful to you then some trophy.

Then again I can't speak for the people who actually have a high stat like that, so if they feel differently then so be it.
