New endgame component

[Lord Magus]

As you've probably seen Anubis complain about ad nauseous, there isn't much to do after acumen until the year is over.

I would propose a 'prestige' system a la CoD. After you win acumen you can run a command /prestige which brings your characters stats (not skills or things like that) back down to beginning stats and resets your level, but increments some new counter by 1. This gives the person who wins a new reason to play for the year.

Content can then be added based on 'prestige' such as maybe a new beast that gets weaker the more prestige levels you have. I.E. almost impossible to kill with prestige level 0 (well not impossible, but even harder than the card quest beasts), but can be killed with some work (10 minutes? 30? an hour?) at level 1 and can be 1 hit after a few levels; or something like that.

This morning we debated.

Each time you reborn, additional hard levels are added to the cap.

Each reborn increases stats on a scale between 1 - n%. n being a somewhere between 100-250%.

This would cause each level to require additional time and effort to max out, as well as grant the players a bonus worthy of having if they invested the time.

Rebirth can be capped at 50, 99 etc. whatever just make the stat increase a linear progression up to that point.

You could then add in other bonuses based on Rebirth level of the players.

i can't agree with the stat gain, that means 12 players at any given time will have a pretty significant edge versus everyone else
i could see using it as a way to change classes after Inquest and introduce a new beast line, but don't give passive power spikes, that gets out of hand fast

[Anubis]

I meant mine as a way to allow people to level. regardless of inquest win.

I should have mentioned that.

IE, you're capped. You can rebirth and start over again.

Nothing related to inquest winning. Which now that i look is a bit off topic for this post.

Yeah that's why I went with a beast tie in instead. Regulars can still kill it, but acumen winners have an advantage. And since there is a monthly cap, it should be fair but annoying for non winners.

Upping this in the hopes that it'll get formally shot down so I can stop hoping.
