House Prime Strength

Post by Koi-Cryptic »

Hey guys!

I've been mulling over different ideas for a while now about house prime strength and I really feel like it should have a purpose. Right now, except for the 30k monthly cost, the strength of a house prime doesn't matter. A house isn't any stronger with 70k versus 700k beyond being able to relax and not worry about the monthly cost for a while.

What ideas do you all have for how we can put the prime strength to use to either do something or benefit the members in some way? Let me know!

I had did a task around this...maybe a land maintenance cost...or the lands deteriorate with withering or bad affects?

How about using it for maybe focus staffs in the sanc area to give yourself protective arts or forge real quick. So much for so many days or so.

I like that idea Diligent. As long as I don't have to stand there for a long time, to get a decent amount. Would you allow members to rally non members that are helping get the effect when sent there? Would be helpful. Start off with 30 min then 10 or 5 min added each minute or 30 seconds you stand there? Sounds great to me.

I like diligent's idea too.

I would like to see it done on a RP side. People using strength for major dream changes.

I remember once I made a room and sticky room via 100k strength.

1mil strength can add 1 more vault, every month cost increases +20k.

Some agreed on amount can be used to damage other house, let’s say same 1mil can destroy other house vault or sanc.

Also, spend strength to build a portal within house to the plane of your choosing, same 1 mil strength.

House with the most prime strength gets rewarded for the previous month with something. Rewards vary

I do like this idea, but this would be hard to do because vaults and sanctuaries are attributes assigned to a room in the level editor and in order to make any such changes live would require a whole patch to the game. Unfortunately, changes like this can't happen fluidly.

This is kind of what the 30k monthly cost is for. If a house were to ever to not be able to afford the 30k, it would close.

My goal is to have something to RP, for sure. I would like to find something that is pretty level across the board. Some houses can bring in more essences than others and in greater amounts, so it'd be hard to have one house that has 10 vaults and another that only has 5. I like the idea of using the strength to change stuff though. Depending on changes, maybe some things could worked into a patch if needed.

I think a reward system could be great for houses!

I am talking beyond the house...the lands Upper and Lower Lambent..the 30 k is for the house itself. Maybe 10k land fees for each plane. Ups the stakes of owning a house.
Example...Wardens has the Pallisades and Edgeward. A in game Role play for Dreamers of Light to claim the Cairns. Cairn and Lower cairn would be another 20k. Would make it interesting.
