  • What is the event about?

  • Just like the battle of Hogwarts there will be 2 sides. People choose a side and battle.

  • How could it be executed?

  • Bot development will be required

  • Event will last for a few days

  • After the announcement of the event people will be able to choose from 2 sides

  • Those who have picked a side can choose to attack the other side with cooldowns with attack command

  • Every side will have a pool of 'health' that will deteriorate whenever a successful attack falls

  • There is a chance to get defeated in an attack and lose some of your side's health

  • In every attack there is also a chance that a member of either side will get injured or die. Dead members will not be able to attack again and injured members will have a huge cooldown penalty

  • How do you think users will enjoy it?

  • Battling and murdering each other? Yeah people will enjoy that.

Alternatively instead of having 2 sides this can be done for houses. The houses can battle each other with house health in proportion to house size.

Ooooh. Sounds like an interesting idea for Pottergames actually

#

A few things to consider

#
  • if it is against the Death Eaters, how do we keep both sides sorta equivalent in size so it is a fair fight
#
  • if it is between Houses, same concern as above, but also why would they be fighting each other? What kind of storyline can you think of?

  • Balancing would be done by group 'health' I mentioned. When you attack you will be making the attack on the group rather than any individual. If the group size is small then the group health will be large. So there could be a window to choose your group so that the group health can be calculated before the war begins.
  • Same system should work for houses except easier because you already know the house sizes so 'house health' could be calculated. As for the reason why they would be fighting each other - due to the battle of hogwarts the ministry experienced a loss in many aurors and felt the need to bolster its auror ranks with qualified and sufficient wizards so that they could track down the remaining death eaters and so that in events like those there are more wizards to fight threats and the loss of innocent lives can be minimized. After discussions with all the wizarding schools every school was required to introduce a more practical experience for wizards looking to choose the career of an auror. And hence <insert event name> was introduced, the performance in which will contribute your practical skillsin addition to the NEWT scoresillsithe student auror applications and also seek to raise interest among them.
