A Traveling Faire

What would you think about a traveling Faire, that would start weekly real time days, and would visit each node village and higher. This faire would include a jousting event and sword fighting 1 on 1 bracket fighting. This faire would be open for all citizens of the node winners would win a prize from the mayor and at the end of the year the king would hold a grand tournament for all node winners to compete for a prize from the king.

Jousting could be good for the economy to sell horses and armor , and jousting weapons.

Would like to hear your thoughts , thanks for reading.

I like it.

Love it, this could be something ongoing that gives people something to look forward, too. Maybe they could have side games like axe throwing. and test of strength

I like the idea. It would also be useful for seasonal events.

Since mayors and kings will be players, this traveling faire is going to be runned by players or NPCs only? Maybe giving extra functions to the mayor when this faire arrives in the node could be interesting.

I like the idea of faires. Minigames once in a while could lighten up the node

Ya the Final Event could be held in a Metropolis, with the King present and be a grand event, lot's of possibilities, also having all the winners from each node present, maybe they could Erect a Statue of the winner from the node they're from.

I love the idea of a traveling Faire / Carnival. A great opportunity to play minigames for unique cosmetics! Maybe some unique shopkeepers, mounts for purchase, etc.

Fantastic idea!

Perhaps, for a fee, a player merchant can travel with the fair and sell their wares in stalls. So if you are the only one on the server who has successfully learned to mate panthers with eagles, you can sell your very rare and expensive flying cat mounts *hint, sell only the males so no one else can every breed them*.

Someone else can sell their crafted daggers and another their turnip soup which improves accuracy for two hours.

great idea. ren faire is one of my favorite times of year in real life anyhow, seeing one in game could be pretty magical.

this reminds me of the mooonlight enchantments events that would happen monthly in eq2 where magic mushroom rings would appear and portal you to the fae realm

Sounds like fun

I love this concept ^^ I enjoy faires in most games~ Nice event to bring people together for a bit of light-hearted entertainment ^^

TheHiddenDaggerInn

Yes, this is something I have not seen in other games, it could be as simple as the 2 events , but many directions they could go with it. Seems like so far this has gotten a lot of support.

Tyranthraxus

+1 for this notion.

Yours truly is all about having reasons to go an visit/explore Nodes that aren't our own!

Greypelt

I like the idea. I think in order to justify it, the scope of the idea would have to expand a little though. To have a traveling faire you would have to have 'The area where the traveling faire sets up' for every node. That seems like it could be a bit of wasted space when the faire wasn't there (You could at least have mobs spawn there in the meantime), but I think it would be better off as an 'Event Plot' That different traveling events / holidays could be set up at (The Faire, Minstrels, religious festival, Day of the pumpkin, Pirate day, Harvest celebration, etc.) to provide some standardized areas for temporary events to set up at.

TheHiddenDaggerInn

Ya I like those idea's I mean we see it all the time in games for holidays the devs like to add some stuff, so a specified event area would be fitting.

HiddenDaggerInn

Thanks for the awesome feedback guys! I really hiope this is something they can make happen at some point, keep the ideas coming.

Can we attack and loot it while it travels? Standard caravan PvP rules of course

Winners on either side get extra raffle tickets and stuff as reward/loot.

I like the idea!

HiddenDaggerInn
