The Colosseum of Ul'dah

Im surprised this hasnt been brought up before, and if it has, im sorry i just didnt see the thread.

In Ul'dah, a few of the quest are centered around the importance of the Colosseum to the city state, but nothing is really utilized at all there. There is a couple quest with gladiator and pugilist that you actually get to go in an instance and fight. What i'm suggesting is, open up the Colosseum to Adventures for PvP. There could be two sides to this instance. Spectators and Fighters, and the adventurers could place bets against each other and npc perhaps based on odds. There could be a wall of fame and everything. Adding nice, never ending content to the already central hub of Eozera.

To the victor goes the spoils. They could make you drop a piece of gear for losing, or simply drop a piece of job specific gear, perhaps even make this action cost guild marks and also reward with guild marks.

:cool:

I have talked to some of my LS about this before. I think it would be neat to implement that feature for all those that really want the pvp, but they probably wouldn't add something like that until after the all-important battle update. I had an idea that it could sort of be like behest on an hour to half hour basis and you either have to fight everyone or, it has a tournament style bracketing system. =p

i love the tournament idea~!!

World Martial Arts Tournament from DB/DBZ (and GT probably but eff that), not that it has to be called this or like this, I just want a super awesome Colosseum for if not PvP (we're not ready for that, we may never be, balancing between PvP and PvE in classes can ruin games), I want waves of mobs, or like a bcnm in there.

Hah. World Martial arts tournament ! that would be fun.

Yeah an arena with tons of mobs coming at you could be fun too. They should really think about doing this as a side thing to do. ^^

they said before release that we would be able to participate in the arena, but it never happened. Even used to say it on the main site uldah descript, and saying it wouldnt be ready for release, not there anymore though.

the arena idea with waves of mobs sounds like cait siths area in ff7, dang if i cant remember it though. But an arena like a true gladiator where mobs and stuff come out and u slay them with a boss at the end would be freakin SWEEEET.

Actually if you play gladiator, you did participate in the arena ^^ for the class quests.

+1 for tournament (PvP) Colosseum!

Leaving the obvious for the tournament you can do some random fights where two random players are called to fight vs two another players. That's a way to give a plus to the fight and do people socialize between them!
