PvE Arena Wave Mode

[soft mirage]

The title is as it is, a new game mode that is basically a PvE arena where there are waves- the timer will countdown until the next wave comes, so you'll have to clear each wave before the countdown timer or there will be more mobs around you every wave because of your low damage. There will be a leaderboard based on your points and the reward system would also be based on your points- i think this would be an amazing addition since its a PvE based game.

too boring man, what the fun to destroying mobs on timer? is it 2000 old game? or a mobile game ? this idea too old for 2025

And what exactly is a dungeon? Destroying mobs on timer with fancy names and design instead of single arena?

[bitter anvil]

probably i go for dungeons because i am interested in map design / tactics and spells thats boses have, and the reason why i wanted to go to next league is just getting new dungeon

but i am not interested to play the same dungeons all the time

And as you can see, people are asking for more content, as there are not content in da game

This could be a fun alternative game mode: use the same mobs, but in wave mode they get released at set intervals, including mini bosses and bosses. Start at ilvl a bit lower than the players for warm up, then advance levels with the waves.

yeah this would be amazing but for some reason people think its a boring idea idk, its a nice alternative game mode tbh the game needs more content anyways and a arena would be easy to make

Because it gives me PTSD of Hyjal.
I don't think it's necessarily a bad idea, I just don't like the concept of forced pacing. If we can call waves early then I'd be all for it, but if it's hard set on a timer, that's a no-no from me.

can just use existing affixes aswell

i'd love something like this

Could be really cool if the area is dynamic. Like you start off and its just a sand circle, but then over time pillars pop up, lava pools, spinning blades, mini bosses. At least it would give another game mode

I love an idea where you don't have to spam the same dungeons. It would help practice interrupting, CC disruption, team coordination, etc.

You could also make it so it doesn't drop any gear and only drops Marks and Supplies so you can play with your beginner friends.

Making extra toons and starting at 0.4 iLvl is the only way I get to play with new friends trying the game for the first time.

... And I'm running out of playable characters. Haha
