Default Time Based??

How about making writs time based and using risk reward type scenarios to achieve more tokens?

Pick up writ

1 day = 10 kills = 2 Tokens - 1 of each archetype

1 week = 100 kills = 40 Tokens - 1 of each archetype

1 month = 500 kills = 300 Tokens - 1 of each class

You could pick up more than one in a time period but only have 1 at a time going.

If target not reached then you get nothing.

Stupid idea in my opinion. And that from a guy who cries about not being able to find many PvP targets to kill.

Why are people so happy with a less than 1 ratio of kills to tokens i.e. 2-3 kills = 1 token?

With the old system with dropping chests it worked out roughly 1 kill = 1 token and most people still took several weeks to get 1-2 items off the pvp merchant.

Now these writs are here, getting the pvp armor will take months and thousands of kills..

No thanks i pass personally..

Screw tokens.
Let pvp gear cost status+faction(like miracles)+platz.

And remove fame while you're at it and use PvE style loot, so raids won't get shit for gankfests.

The way you explained it in the other thread, it sounded like you get a maximum of five kills best per day. How in the hell will you finish any of those quests mentioned?

I guess what I am aiming at here is like the suggestions for the fame decay argument the number of tokens is merely a suggestion Daim.

I look at it as still encouraging people to participate in pvp if you took the month writ surely youd get 1 of each class in the amount of kills required.

1 day = 10 kills = 2 Tokens - Any

1 week = 100 kills = 40 Tokens - 1 of each archetype

1 month = 500 kills = 300 Tokens - 1 of each class

its not the number of kills its getting the required class or having to reget over and over to make sure you get a class you think you can kill.

The current writ 5 tokens and I have to find dunno warden pally is silly imo but for my example over a period of a week or month it would be realistic

How about the same idea just without the timer? You could choose between the three different quests. On the first quest you get 1 token per kill, second quest 1.5 tokens per kill and third quest 2 tokens per kill.

only reason for the timer is to keep it going if you pick up a weekly writ you better be sure you can play a lot that week and if you do you get rewarded with a better ratio the timer just adds a fear factor as you could get 499 and get fuk all lol
