Great Captains (and/or pkkudos)
Re: Great Captains (and/or pkkudos)
I like the idea - I think it would encourage more people to lead (or attempt to lead). I've been trying to lead more often because it seems there is often a need, and if I'm going to learn I might as well do while I learn.
I think it if the support is there it could really help because people like to be told they did a good job, especially by their peers and rewarding behavior gets more of the same behavior.
Count me in.

Yeah I mean it's great in theory, I just can't see it being practical in application.
You could literally do this is a monthly player vote thread and then the person changes it to 'Great Captain' for that month.
Or is the idea for an extra qps revenue system? I don't really understand.

Re: Great Captains (and/or pkkudos)
Yeah, that's the barebones of the idea. Everyone can chip in whatever they like per month - coin, tokens, xp scalps, whatever people want to contribute. We can have a monthly RP story or song or something for them, something like a wikipedia profile eventually - give them a story/presence. It could be that for every month that you get the flag, you get 1 more paragraph to your tale.
Just spitballing here - can have a special narrate for when they log on, similar to the idea of mobs nodding for high RPkudos people except it would be PC / military officers who do that.
If we actually get a lot of coin collected (over a month this is), they could maybe use that for clan treasury stuff, like if they want to put a heron on their clan head or whatever - I mean they get more power to affect things potentially.
The real incentive though is just the possibility of more fun enjoyable pk, more often.

Re: Great Captains (and/or pkkudos)
I like the idea of pk being better defined into battles....and less about getting easy kills(by ambushing lone low hp people in smobs...and such) to me the random fade/mob/ follower trolloc fading around from smob to smob looking to catch an easy kill has never been a pk dynamic, and should not be rewarded...if you are a top tier pker have some class and a bit of rp what would a leader of the dark ones forces really be doing going into a smobs to kill a lone light slider? that is not a pk.... Always seemed like bad rp from a fade, I could see a trolloc just mindlessly killing, but shouldn't fades be more strategic...if this would help to define the difference between strategic battle leaders....and random easy kill seekers I say I am about it...
Re: Great Captains (and/or pkkudos)
great idea!
1. it doesn't require the staff to lose any bandwidth
2. its player run
3. it sounds fun!

Hey now!! You’re calling out the entire former chosen clan!!
I couldn’t agree with you more. I never understood the easy quick kills. Similar to why I don’t understand why people play time stab, flee stab, charge etc. or even 1v1 for me is boring af.
Shinobi is an idiot.
