POE2 League Mechanic Idea - Pirate Ship Island exploration
I love the thematic theme of arriving to islands in act 4 on a ship.
I also love feeling like I'm exploring a real world. Teleporting through portals in the atlas is cool. Heists, delve. These are different flavours/themes of exploring, finding "dungeons", new mobs and bosses to fight. Then it struck me. What if you had a league mechanic that was themed like you were a pirate. It has occured to me that Lost Ark did something like this but I never played Lost Ark so I wouldn't know how that felt. Having a pirate themed league mechanic sounds like a such a fun theme to me and feel like you could do a lot with it. Here are some ideas. 1. Pirate Ship Fights like random pokemon battle when travelling to islands 3. Boarding ships or being boarded after winning or losing ship battles 2. Ship upgrading faster travel times better weapons larger hold 3. Extraction type looting collecting loot from islands with a chance of having it stolen by other pirates from your ships hold. Have to take loot back to main base. 5. Multiple environments with a feeling of being more grounded in your mapping experience and exploring connected biomes 6. Ability to explore outside areas and dungeon instances 7. Sea monster boss battles 8. Ascendancy to becoming a pirate king storyline 9. Different sea and pirate factions and reputation system 10. Many different mission types available with reputation systems like hostage rescue, HVT assassination or capture and transport, intel capture for warring factions, holding slaves on your ship, transporting refugees you found There's this great little colony space sim game that was based on RimWorld called Space Haven that has these kinds of ideas. Basically like your captain of your star trek and you're going round doing shit. Now that I think about it RimWorld style league mechanic could be amazing too. Pirate ship mobile colony. Maps 2.0 :) RimWorld style league mechanic. Colony Blight tower defense 2.0 with exploration :) This is the kind of awesome stuff I'd love to see in some insane league in POE2. Just an idea :) Last edited by Murlyn_#6892 on Sep 2, 2023, 3:35:51 PM Last bumped on Sep 2, 2023, 3:32:22 PM
