Outlaw/Neutral potion suggestion

[adapter]

Oi

i'll be brief with this one

Suggestion:

Create a potion that by drinking it, makes the player an Outlaw / Neutral in oRvR. Last X minutes. Being an Outlaw would mean that you are able to fight both realms in the oRvR zones.

Why?

1. In a certain manner, it will create that third faction that many players want. For example, guilds could run Outlaw/Neutral warbands. As a member of a Greenskin guild, I dislike Dark Elves and Chaos Humans, would love to kill them.

2. It will increase the amount of PvP encounters inside the oRvR lake, specially for solo and small scale roaming groups.

3. If many players become Outlaws, it may decrease the chance of Zergs from happening.

4. Just for the fun of it.

It could interrupt realm progression if you consider that Outlaws would not help to push zones, that may be true.

Any thoughts on it? share your opinion about it if it deserves one.

edit: Someone called 'sharpblader' added some ideas in the comments to how it could work, specially having to talk and pay to an NPC to activate Outlaw mode.

Try it out with a weekend event. Would bring a lot of interest from former players.

And when all drink this pot we will have 1 faction

No, because you could still fight against Outlaws, it's not a third faction, it's a neutral one. No allies (only party members)

So order is zerged. They all come destro. No enemy to fight. All in destro take drink. Ppl realize no point to play order if U can fight as destro with hmm destro

No I don't think this is a good idea. It would take an enormous effort to balance as well as a seismic shift in player/community attitudes to make it work. It would as wachlarz mentioned be a case of destro against destro. Also their are destro players who are not very popular and if this potion was available people would use it and then go after those players making for a very, very toxic situation.

As a event could be fun, or at least different => for a limited time chose a map/maps and make it hardcore pvp for everyone that enter. Only grp/wb frienly, the rest are enemies...

None of this would be a concern. State the addition of the potion will never be a balance factor, it's provided as-is on a fun/experimental basis, the end.
