Silan Quests for the Marauder NPCs - IDEAS FOR RYZOM

#1 Added by Seralee 1 year ago [en]

Hello everybody!

I would like to suggest to add some beginners missions for the Marauder camp on Silan. It is great that the camp there has been added and that the tutorial leads there to learn a little about Marauders and their history, but I think new players would benefit from 'real' missions and rewards as they do from the kami and karavan camp. These missions should also be linked to Chiang, sending players over to take a look at those quests (again like for kami and karavan). This might be a way of new players coming away from Silan not thinking "Marauders? Never heard of them, dont even know what that is".

Thanks for reading :)

at the same time newcomers will learn about the ideology of the Marauders, their portals and what a zun crystal is.

C'est pas une mauvaise idée.
mais je vois mal chiang (rangers) se lier avec les maraudeurs (ennemie de l'ensemble des sociétés homines)

de même le camps maraudeur ne devrait pas être dans le camps ranger.
c'est un peut comme si les gouvernements IRL acceptaient des ambassadeurs représentant l'ensemble des organisations terroristes du monde...

après la création de nouvelles missions doit représenter une grosse somme de travail...

Not a bad idea.
but I can't see chiang (rangers) getting involved with the marauders (enemies of all homin societies).

Likewise, the marauder camp should not be in the ranger camp.
it's a bit like IRL governments accepting ambassadors representing all the world's terrorist organizations...

after the creation of new missions must represent a huge amount of work...

The Rangers have nothing against marauders - on the contrary. They work together to fight kitins, especially in the ATs. Don't confuse the ideology of Akilia and her clan (destroying nations) with that of most marauding clans, which only want to break away from nations, not necessarily destroy them. When you say "enemy of all homin societies", the Maraud clans form societies. Putting Maraud missions in the Ranger camp could be just the opportunity to shatter certain myths that Marauds are just ugly, ugly people who only want to see the world burn.

Putting maraud missions in the ranger camp can be just the thing to shatter certain myths that marauders are nothing but ugly villains who only want to see the world burn.

I couldn't agree more.
For many, marauders are just big butchers with no respect for the lives of other Atys homins.

The idea of adding a three-mission journey like the karavan and kamiste would be a good one.

Even if the image of the marauders only comes from the marauders themselves...

We talked about it tonight outside the "Lore" meeting with tamarea and Namcha for the silan missions.

A secret meeting where not just anyone among the players can take part? After all, it's true that the Rangers and Marauders aren't played by anyone, and that the other factions/nations never interact with them, so it would be a shame for this kind of discussion to be public, and for the choices made to take everyone's wishes and comments into account.

I can only agree with zatalys. Many players, and I'm not talking about factions or religions, just players behind their pixells, would like to take part in this kind of meeting, even if some of them have rather crazy ideas ^^.

Indeed, it's strange that the Marauders' representation mini-camp in the ranger camp is there, but there are no missions from it. I thought that they (missions) already existed, when I saw that this representation appeared...
It would be necessary to add them (missions) in this case.
And indeed, these could be constructively useful missions dealing with topics where the shared interests of Marauders and Rangers (at least) overlaps.
As already mentioned, this is a fight against kitins.
Or even exclusively selfish (for Marauders), but also constructive, for example, obtaining technologies/materials for teleportation/something else - even studying that same crafty Goo Device.
It can be smuggling, or vice versa, suppression of smuggling.
Otherwise, youngs will continue to think that Marauders are those who smear Higher Powers teleporters with poop and run aimlessly naked through the roots and nothing more.

We talked tonight about taking out the "Lore" association with Tamarea and Namcha for the Silan missions.
A secret meeting that no one from the players should attend under any circumstances? After all, it is true that the Rangers and Marauders are not played by anyone, that the other factions/nations never interact with them, so it would be a pity if this kind of discussion were public and the decisions made took into account everyone's wishes and comments.

i can only agree with zatalys. many players, and i'm not talking about factions or religions here, but just players who stand behind their pixells, would love to participate in such meetings, even if some of them have pretty crazy ideas ^^.

That would mean having to break with the idea that only a select few enlightened people know how the game has to go on, and that everyone else has to be deliberately kept in the dark about the background story, etc. That won't happen in Ryzom (unfortunately) - even if a much more open approach and the renunciation of almost exclusively design and corresponding account discussion behind closed doors could clearly release creativity.

100% agree with Seralee, new players need more knowledge about the Marauder faction so that other players' opinions don't adversely influence new players.

Too many players think Marauders are bad people before getting to know us.

My two cents.....
