View Full Version : New PvP Arena Idea - earn gold by competing

I see folks complaining that since they mostly PvP they don't earn any gold....

How about a 1-on-1 arena where you can place a wager. So you can start a game and place a wager of any amount you want. Then if someone wants to join they match your wager, and then the winner (maybe first one to 10 kills?) gets the gold. When you place the wager the gold is removed from your inventory, and then when the game is over the winner gets their gold back plus the gold from the other player. This way there is no "honor" system to worry about and no scamming.

This would allow PvP Pros to basically "earn a living" by just doing PvP. I know this would be considered gambling, but so isn't opening grand watch crates. So obviously gambling is not frowned upon in the world of Arcane Legends.

I doubt that would be implemented, as it could lead to an easy scam.

Example: Use noob armor, ask somebody to do that with you. Both wager lets say 20k. You put on good gear, own the person. You win.

That's not a scam you shouldnt be judging a book by its cover anyway

Good idea though maybe add in a new area pk'ers can go to and arrange the matches

The point is that it doesn't cause problems for the AL economy. It just causes gold to be transferred from one player to another.

Some folks keep suggesting that there be gold awarded for kills, flags, etc. That would mean there is more gold being added every day to the AL economy. That already happens from PvE, and if it were to also happen from PvP then we would see mass inflation. That's a bad idea.

If you got gold from kills everybody would be farming.

Noobs wouldn't want to bet just to lose again and again. Most probably the players betting would be those that actually have a hope to win.

Thought gambling is against the ToS? (even though they have gamble packs known as "bundles" & such lol)

Ik thats what Im saying but I think actual in game gambling is against the ToS or Google or something. Forget where I read that info and on which ToS. X.x I kinda assumed they found ways around it or something? Idk

Anyway if its possible then might as well. Would make a good gold sink. Especially if they are taxed (kinda like the dealer from Texas Holdem tables hehehe... Casinos win 99% of the time.. XD).
