Perhaps we could have some missions (or more likely campaigns) that take joint effort from legion members, and give rewards to the legion as a whole or the base. Like a cross between the CTL and the mission structure, where members take a different role. Each campaign can consist of half a dozen or so missions that are completed by one person each. No saying a person cannot do more than one mission, but it needs to be restricted to one at a time (you can't scout one enemy oupost at one end of the galaxy while escorting a defecting scientist to your base at the other end for example) and possibly requiring a minimum number of participents.

While the rewards are for the whole base, there should be some minor rewards for the people that take part so everyone can feel involved. Maybe some parts of a campaign involve traditional missions, while others involve collective research, or stockpiling artifacts and certain minerals.

No idea what the campaigns could be, but there is massive scope for ideas...

I like it, been suggested many times but I still like it. The missions would have to be assigned by the leaders for the sake of completing them (because some members don't give a hoot).

Yea, a way of truely acting like a legion, under a general.

Sorry this is a repeat post. There are that many suggestions in here, I hadn't been able to go through them at least it adds credenance to the suggestion

It doesn't help when someone necro's a half dozen year old stinkers either...

Anyway... It's a good start to an idea. But having the leaders assign tasks to the individuals could be abused because they can show favoritism. I'd rather see Dan set the missions and have certain portions be available to certain groups within a legion. Like bottom 10% by rank can do this part, top 10% can do that part, and have portions available for all the groups in between. Maybe even just split it by 5 groups of 20%. And only when all portions are completed would a legion wide reward be available.

Maybe some sort of mission that works like this:

15 player mission

Each player chooses what they want to focus on doing

2 can choose NPC hunting-each npc you kill has a 1% chance of dropping the required artifact (gather 200 parts from each player ?)
2 can choose PVP-each time you click attack against another player you have a 5% chance of finding the required artifact (collect 250 parts per player ?)
2 can choose base combat-everytime you click attack during base combat you have a 2% chance of finding the required artifact (colelct 500 per player ?)
2 can choose Planet scanning-everytime you click scan you have a 10% chance of finding the required artifact (collect 100 per player ?)
2 can choose hacking-every hack you attempt has a 5% chance of finding the required artifact (collect 200 per player ?)
2 can choose raiding-every raid you attempt has a 10% chance of finding the required artifact (collect 250 per player ?)
2 can choose Ship upgrades-Every 1 energy you add to your ship has a 5% chance of discovering the required artifact (collect 200 per player ?)
1 can choose leveling- Every 1 level you increase you have a 20% chance of finding the required artifact (collect 50 per player ?)


The reward for completing all this could be 3-5% towards what is required to level your legion base.
So not overly powered and suits several different play styles

+1 from me.

combining the variety of missions in Sparky's with Darth's bracketing of legion members would be very sweet.

i also suggested this a while back and am still in full support of this +1

you could have a daily mission that everyone could do to increase base shipments by 1% for each legion member that completes it

could be fun could be split up by lvls how much energy is need to be used in a task of the gamers choicing

+1 to this anything that give the legion a chance to work together towards something sounds like a good idea and fun to boot lol

Thanks. Per the OP, we're drafting something along those lines, but we want to involve aspects of battle as well.

sweet !

Aspects of Player vs Player battle, or npc battle?

A quick and dirty way might be a "legion duty" badge that is awarded when a member completes one of these special tasks, and each member can spend one badge on the shared mission. Once enough people have done the shared legion mission, the leaders can set a new one.

I was thinking the badge system simply because its already in place, and im sure you could set a wide variety of specific tasks to give one?



Seriously though Dan, thanks a ton for commenting! Dan has spoken, lets brainstorm this guys

+1
but this has been posted a thousand times

And on the thousand and first, Dan says he's working on it

whoo, thank you dan, this sounds awesome, cant wait to see the end product of this, itd be even better if it was team based, something you cant do by yourself. you know to encourage teamwork and such

just saw that, thank you Dan

Sounds like a great idea. Supported.
