So, I was brainstorming last night, trying to find my way around here again and I came up with something I felt worthy enough to share with the community! So here's the idea:
Each player made alliance such as New Babylon or L.A.W. would start at level one and through stories produced through the faction would earn the alliance OM, just like an individual. OM would be awarded to an alliance the same way the Bonus Request thread is done. Once you have completed a faction based thread, someone in your party would then submit to the bonus request thread for not only the bonus of multiple player interaction, but also for an alliance OM reward. Staff would then grade the thread, the same way they do for the Bonus Request.
Why, you ask? To unlock cool shit for your alliance of course!
Like what, you ask? How about Alliance quests that offer real rewards?!
(These numbers aren't set in stone, just examples!)
At Level one, a faction would basically be approved to offer 25 om as a quest reward. The alliance could offer as many quests as they want and once completed anyone of those quests could offer up to 25 om reward.
At level two, the faction unlocks higher rewards for the quest the make, lets say 50 om. So and and so fourth for each level they unlock, allowing the alliance to offer higher om rewards for the quests their members complete.
And finally, at some point a level unlock would be a faction quest reward that offers an essence of Omni. Essence of Omni, for those that don't know, is basically you creating your own artifact. In this case the factions leaders would create the artifact and their members would quest to obtain it for the alliance. I would put this as a really high faction level to unlock.
The alliance OM or xp rewarded for each thread the alliance completes would be up to staff, but I would say a formula that matches up with the individual character progression, only multiplying the number to take into account that multiple people work towards obtaining these levels, would probably be best. Maybe the same as the individual progression levels, only times 5? (Average number of members for a faction?)
And lastly, with Factions having their own OM count, this could open the door for items that are only purchasable through a faction. Faction only items you spend your alliance OM for.
I think that is the jist of this idea, I like it and would love to see it implemented. Please, discuss!
