The Colosseum

[XaWei]

In Marteks Stronghold you have placed the Colosseum.

The initial sign says : Welcome to the Colosseum , do not interfere with battles , games , or events. Yet the Colosseum itself is nonfunctional ( to players ) unless the GM's utilize it.

I propose changes :
In the entrance area ( where the ground is dirt ) I propose a special shop which will purchase all of the items that players can't sell to regular shops.

Block the actual entrance to arenas , where players must be level 30 to gain access.

The 1st island says ( Fire and Ice arena , enter at your own risk ! ) Allow players ( lvl 30 to 150 ) to pay a fee ( 500k to 1m ) to enter ... lock them in the arena , and have them face a horde of 3 different types of enemies. This should last until the player is killed ... or the player kills 300 enemies ( at which point they should be rewarded with an item that they normally wouldn't recieve )

The 2nd arena says ( Sand Pit for medium events no pvp allowed )

1 keep the NO PVP ... BUT allow lvls 50 to 250 to pay ( 1m or 2m ) to enter here ( with a limit of 10 to 20 players ) slow spawn about 5 to 7 DIFFERENT high end monsters that the players will have to work together to defeat. Let this event spawn continue until the first person that enters reaches 500 monsters then reward according to amount of kills per player. A new possible reward could be skill points ( the likes you recieve from leveling up )

Upon completion of the cycles on these first 2 arenas ... send players back to the original spawn point : woodcutters hut.

NOW ... the 3rd says BATTLEFIELD for large events, and is equipped with its own dungeon. I think this field should be for the 250's and higher. Make this arena straight out PVP to fill the high levels joneses for power. Dont limit the amount of players that may enter ... give them a fee of 2m to 3m to enter ... and slow spawn the most powerful monsters ( like 1 every 30 minutes ) ... let each player SELECT , which item they will lose to their killer if they fall here. And award a special drop to any player which can kill multiple players consecutively .... ( difference : when a player falls from battle in this area ... respawn them outside Marteks Stronghold ... so they wont have far to go to re enter the arena if they wish to )

And the grey area surrounding these 3 arenas should have random slow spawns of many different monsters whicj would keep players in waiting occupied.

Unlike many , I know the level of coding required to do what I have just proposed ... it's not just an easy task ... but this is just one of my proposals ! I took the time to write it out ... I hope you give it a good looksee and weigh it's possibilities. I love the game you have built ... and shall continue to play regardless .... ALL LOVE AND RESPECT !

I actually was planning something somewhat similar to this at one point (though simpler and not quite as good as what you are recommending tbh) ... a few simple map alterations and asking am admin to add some creative auto spawns could possibly be really fun here
