My idea is for a week long Crucible event, along the lines of the never implemented Faction Wars. This event would be offered once per quarter or perhaps bi-monthly. The idea is as follows: [b]Lord Shaxx:[/b] [i]Guardian, Crota is fallen, Oryx... is dead. We have a breather for the first time in living memory. However new threats approach. I have consulted with the Vanguard and we have finally decided to put an end to the petty squabbling between the various Factions. Let them prove their worth to each other, and to the City entire. The wining faction shall Rise Above, so that they may lift those below[/i] Players start the Event with a short quest from Lord Shaxx where they pledge allegiance to one Faction for the duration of [i]Rise Above[/i]. Once this choice is made players cannot change their Faction until the event ends. The game mode associated with [i]Rise Above[/i] is [i]Stand Together[/i], it would feature random 3 v 3 game modes where each player on the winning team receives 1 Token of Victory, and the player with the top overall score (regardless of being on the winning or losing team) would receive 1 more Token. Players could form a premade fireteam with the caveat being that all members must owe allegiance to the same Faction. Matches would be between teams that hold separate allegiance to different Factions (so 2 Dead Orbit teams would not be matched together, for example). Tokens of Victory would stack in your inventory up to 50 times (cannot be traded between characters), and can be turned in at the respective Faction vendor for a small amount of reputation. Once turning in a combined total of 5, 15 and 30 Tokens the player would receive a gift bag with an Event item inside. There would be an Event Primary and Special weapon, along with a special Event Class item (would work like a normal Faction class item but with a different appearance). These would drop as end of activity rewards. At the end of [i]Rise Above[/i] the Faction with the most Tokens turned in wins, they get their Faction's banner displayed on the flags in the Tower for a few weeks, as well as a special trophy or other effect next to the Faction Vendor which would persist until the next [i]Rise Above.[/i] Players for the winning side, provided they turned in at least 5 Tokens, receive a special emblem celebrating their victory. The top 5, 50 and 500 players with the most tokens turned in receive individual achievement rewards (Emblem, Class item etc) What do you guys think? I think that this would be a good break from Iron Banner, and would allow for some truly awesome competitive play.
