Battle Royal Dungeons

[BabyYoda]

This post is just to discuss that what do you think of BR as a content that goes along with regular dungeons?

BR contains points of direct PVP but what if it get implemented PvE objectives instead?

while crystal alliance is more of PvP but what if we could have another version that could be more of a PvE objectives?

this post is to discuss this idea

I'm not really sure what you're getting at

are you wanting them to add dungeons that have elements of PvP in them?
Or do you want more maps with other objectives like with Shatter? (which I don't think many people enjoy tbh)

Honestly I'd prefer them to look at the already existing PvP modes and how to improve them, because rival wings for example is essentially dead outside of the moogle events and it's a shame because that is genuinely my favorite mode of PvP

they could maybe do what you're wanting with more maps in Crystaline Conflict, which I think is what you were getting at?

Isn’t that literally just Frontlines: Shatter though?

This does strike me as an idea akin to Shatter from Frontline with the Tomeliths, bar it seems like you're proposing something that would fight back?

Frontlines: Shatter isn't close to what BR game mode would look like,

Games like fortnite, supervive did it right.

Frontlines is a simple mode that is BR-Lite, there is lots of elements that is missing "survival part"

if I want to describe what is frontlines: shatter, it is a PvP mode that contains objectives that 3 teams fight over it.

Years ago Yoship said he would love to implement a Blue Mage Battle Royale mode which could be pretty fun but who knows if that will ever come to pass. Beyond that I don't really see the concept working in this game.

I can kinda envision it. 100 blue mages dropped randomly in a eureka sized pvp zone. Players can find spells in coffers, random mobs, or by killing other players. Maybe they can only hold 5 spells at a time? I'd also give them rarity upgrades so even 'bad' spells can be useful if rare enough. Probably have uses of the standard issue elixir drop in coffers too and disable or severely lower passive mp regen.

No idea if this would be fun without testing but this is just my silly little idea

Most of these things Yoshi-P claims he would love to do never come to pass. It must be terribly frustrating for him to be thwarted by... er... dark forces or something.

That's pretty much how I pictured it as well. I would keep it to just chests and players though so people are more incentivized to explore the map and hunt each other down. I'd keep the spells as their normal incarnation as well. Some may be less useful but that's part of what makes battle royale games fun IMO. Sometimes you land and find a machine gun, sometimes you find a spoon. Imagine landing and the first spell you find is self destruct!
