I have a suggestion and I am asking for a nice discussion with pro and cons
. Saying it isnt blizzlike just because Nostalrius implemented it like that would make this whole foum section redundant so lets rather have a solid argumentation.Suggestion:
-Either fix the gold reward for turn ins in AV (you kill a player, you loot him, you turn in the item for supposedly 20 silver according to the quest text, though it in fact rewards 40 silver!)
or
-Even better, reduce the reward to something between 5-10 silver to make it still worth looting the corpse but stop the gold farmers in BG's.
or
-Completely remove the gold rewards and let it be the rep only.
Benefit?
The AV's would still feature big clash games, there would still be a defence with direct pvp to slow the enemy factions progression. However it would be reasonable and controlled, since only the 5-10 people who actually have fun deffing would do it, all the others who do it for gold would eventually follow the game objectives. The enemy faction and your owns progression will be slowed but not completely blocked, therefore we wont be stuck in 2-10 hr but maybe 1-2 hr AV's. Its a means to an end to reduce the def from 25-40 man to 5-10 man. The gold farmers, frankly, dont belong into BG's.
Let me know what you think fellow productive minds
