Knowledge is Power

[Aerospacegod]

Looking to gather info on the campaigns.

For instance I just ran Forest Haven start to finish and got 1824 gold...will repeat for other levels as I have time(post if you do the same).

Also looking to find the actual pink drop rate(count how many pinks vs non pinks for bosses)

Post any other useful info you find =)

[Violentsaint]

heres some useful info

you have way to much spare time dude =D

[Aerospacegod]

Nah, just running the same campaigns gets old =P

[Spineharvestr]

I think this is very usefull info as most of us are simply killing time until Alien Oasis comes and what better way to spend that time then by farming? I'd love to get a list of this kind of info going, good thinking OP!

[Aerospacegod]

I shoulda timed it

Gold per hour would be more useful. Forest is fast but low in gold, swamp is more gold but might take so much longer to not be a good idea.

We've been talking about leaderboards for PvP, but what do you guys think about one for PvE, with how fast you run a level being the ultimate challenge?

[King Richie]

yeah that would be cool !

[Avadonna]

Can we have a leader board for underachievers like me?
Like: Spends the most time sitting in town.
; )

I like this. It would have to exclude elixer-fueled runs though to be meaningful wouldn't it?

Or I suppose elixer use could become part of the strategy, but that could get pricey very quick.

I would love the timer for the levels and making that the criteria for the leader boards, Would make playing the levels a lil more interesting. I know this would be a lil more work but it would be really cool if you could use a weekly points system and the people who did it the fastest that week or the top three are awarded points and they are allowed to use those points to purchase items from a vendor. That would be some awesome end game content. Just me dreaming :P

Timed runs are always up for debate because of lag. I'd say go with most damage given/least taken type stuff, ya know?

I've suggested that in the past =)
...needs to be a prize for top solo person & top group, say 5k gold/wk their on top

I disagree the prize is the fame there should be no added bonus to being top of a leaderboard

[Justg]

This is great... what other things would you like to see on the leaderboards?

Where would you access them? We were thinking in townes first, on the web secondarily.

[Aerospacegod]

what fame? lol I want a prize even if it's just a little medal on the screen when someone looks you up that your on the leaderboard

Justg: how about an actual billboard in town listing the top runners
edit: also when you create a game it should list the fastest time currently/by whom

[King Richie]

Yeah i agree with the medal or something along the lines of that but definately not a sum of gold or anything usable in game

And yes i really agree with that billboard idea in town and then one you can view on spacetime aswell ..

Edit * PVE-Kills, Deaths, Fastest run,( the fastest run would have to be mission specific obviously so that means the leaderboard would be very in depth as it would have to have every campaign and every mission aka alot of work ) Most gold, Most Pink Items , Play Time , Boss Kills , Assists
PVP-Kills, Deaths, Largest Kill streak, Assists

There the real basics anyway loads more that could be added

[flaimdude]

PLAY TIME! We need a play time one, haha. Also, we need not only a ratio for most damage given/least damage taken, but seperate ones for Most Damage Given (total) and Most Damage Given (total).

How are they going to work? Is it going to be pure kill / death ratio? (How do you stop someone farming kills off an alt?) Are there any objective driven pvp maps in the works?

I think leader boards should be accessible via a menu and not in a town. Have daily, weekly, and "season"(arbitrary time) statistics.

The kills/deaths could only count if it is a non passworded game. That way, people could still join and mess up the alt farming.

Hate to sound like a broken record, but I don't think I'd even bother looking at K/D leaderboards if there were just the pure stats as we see them. At the very least, elixer-boosted kills would have to be discounted.
