    Default Leaderboards

    We have a few ideas, but what would you like tracked/ranked? Sky is the limit!

    I like some of Ta11ons suggestions, they are outside of the box. K/d is a good thing to track

    This is an mmorpg and leaderboards are just plain hard. The last thing we want is some insane version of World of Warcraft's initial pvp ranking system where each players skill level is ranked by the number of kill points scored on other players, compared to everyone elses. It makes pvp grinding absolutely insane.

    A title system seems more organic in an mmorpg than a leaderboard, but thats just me.

    Over all kills.

    Kills this week.

    Overall and Weekly best K/D ratio.

    I feel that things like most boss kills will encourage farming, which makes leveling a pain, and time played might just make people remain logged in while they sleep.
    Im sure there are ways around it though.

    Most gold
    Most PvE kills
    Most PVP kills
    Most time spent in towne
    Most time spent online

    And although the top few may get bad stuff for this...
    Most Platinum spent!

    So on and so forth.

    All those other ideas plus:

    Healing, times cast, hp healed, average
    Fire, Ice, Lightning spells, x cast, x damage, average
    Buff/Debuffs, x cast, total stats provided to party, total debuffs provided, average

    and with pvp coming, it would be nice to compare these stats and others side by side with another friend.

    I like all of these

    I would add-
    K/D ratio all-time and weekly
    Most deaths! (lets go with only weekly on this one haha)
    Most healing given (both AoE heal and AoE regen buff included) -all-time and weekly
    Most damage sustained - this is an attempt at recognizing tanks, who cannot compete with archers for most kills - all-time and weekly (other ideas to improve tank recognition would be great)

    I think per-level leaderboards would be really cool and add a lot of re-play value to levels. Stuff like:

    -fastest time to kill all mobs solo
    -fastest time to kill all mobs with group
    -fastest time to kill all bosses solo
    -fastest time to kill all bosses with group
    -Most damage inflicted by a single player (without dying)
    -Most damage taken without dying

    Those might not all work well, but I think you get the idea.
