This is obviously a topic that gets brought up time and time again but closed mouths can't get fed.

 I realize if it requires development time, it needs to be worth it. Right?

It's just a suggestion. Add your thoughts and opinions. It won't hurt my feelings.

 

What is your suggestion?:

 

1. Reworking how the Well of Goodwill is activated and utilized

2. Allowing personal (temporary player-only) boosters based on personal Well contributions

3. Choose between personal contribution (temporary XP boost) or global (server-wide) bonus

4. Change the Well to operate on 2 hour intervals

5. Would have to potentially make an interface to display total value BEFORE contribution confirmation (huge downfall)

 

Part 1: The Coffer

 

Add a coffer directly west of the Well that will hold a maximum target limit valued at 1B gold pieces

When the server-wide bonus timer reaches 0, GP contributed in the coffer, if any, will be used to re-activate server-wide bonus

Depending on the amount donated, the 120 minute boost amount will be activated to provide bonus XP as seen below:

 

- Based on total GP value total donated

- 2 hour FILL rotation

-1B = +50% XP for 120 minutes

-750M = +45% XP for 120 minutes

-500M = +40% XP for 120 minutes

-250M = +35% XP for 120 minutes

0-250M = +30% XP for 120 minutes

This number will be HALVED for HCIM

 

We can obviously adjust the numbers in the replies below

 

Coffer Options:

 

- Check Amount

- View Time Remaining

- Contribute to

- View Help

 

How It Would Work

 

Use GP or Items to contribute towards the Well's 120 minute global bonus 

Use GP or items to gain temporary XP boosts based on amount donated (see below)

  Well of Goodwill 'Contribute to' Option 1: Contribute towards global / server-wide  bonus

Well of Goodwill 'Contribute to' Option 2: Contribute towards personal contribution

 

Items that are contributed are valued roughly to half of current Exchange / High Alchemy value, whichever is higher

 

Part 2: Personal Contributions

 

At any given time, a player can decide to contribute to the Well of Goodwill while it is active or inactive

This will be great for those looking for a temporary boost during a time a boost is not present

Personal contributions work in conjunction with the current global bonus rotation

 

If you choose to donate toward personal contribution:

20M value = 20 minutes of +50% XP 

30M value = 30 minutes of +50% XP

60M value = 60 minutes of +50% XP

120M value = 120 minutes of +50% XP (capped)

Basically 1M in item value = 1 minute of +50% XP

 

Part 3: Completely optional

 

An addition we can have is the option when contributing items to contribute towards +50% XP or +20% temporary drop rate boost

This effect CAN NOT stack with:

- Drop rate booster

- Raid booster

- Clue booster

- Pet booster

- Gauntlet booster

 

Part 4: Putting It All Together

 

Player A chooses to donate GP towards the server-wide (global) bonus 

Player B chooses to donate Items towards the server-wide (global) bonus

Player C chooses to donate GP towards personal contribution

Player D chooses to donate items towards personal contribution

Personal contributions will NOT stack with store boosters 

 

Item values are based on half of current Exchange / High Alchemy values, whichever is higher

 

The +50% Loyalty Points for those who contribute will remain unchanged.

 

Is this in OSRS?:

 

Negative

 

Has this suggestion been accepted already?:

 

No but similarly

 

How would this benefit Alora?

 

This will incentivize players to sink their wealth to gain temporary boosts for themselves and/or the entire server

Incentivize players to pool together to reach a certain threshold thus theoretically causing players to contribute rather than 1 player

Sink GP and overflow of items from the economy

 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

At the very least, thank you for reading. Cheers.

The well has been a real point of contention lately.
