You know when i'm soaking up say 500 DPS for 10 minutes keeping enemy fire off my team i wish i got rewarded for it. An example being I'm a heavy soaking up damage and leading the charge for my team. If i tank 40 percent of the enemy squad's DPS so my blue berries get stray shots hitting them but they don't die. Im helping the team by doing this and more so if we have a logistics suit near by.

I was Thinking for every 125 damage you tank you get 5 WPs. Not a super huge amount to get an orbital but enough to encourage you to get out of the red line and go try to Kick but in front lines or at least try.

tanks should also receive this but it would instead be 10 points for every 1000 damage(not including hardener resistances). This would make a super tanky Tank role up first more often while a High DPS tank roles behind him uses him as cover.

In the end if we got this blueberries would be more aggressive for WPs at least in front-line suits instead of red line sniping when you are losing.

But to prevent boosting You can not receive damage from the same target for more then 1000 Per enemy Drop-suit. basically if the enemy Dies and comes in a New drop suit that is not Blue-printed or militia fitted and he starts shooting you then you gain points. If its blue printed or militia fitted then you will not receive points from tanking damage from them. You being killed will not reset this counter to prevent front-line boosting.

It doesn't seem like you've thought this through. I have only person that could get a a kills worth of Score is a player with 1000 HP. most of the time probably only get 20 WPs for dying. A heavy with a logi would be making big score or tanking a lot of the DPS for friendlies. Risking your suit should be awarded some points sense you lose out on isk if you lose it in the end anyhow. you could also add a thing you have to be damaging an enemy with in a certain time frame to get theses points to help balance it more and encourage players to try even more so.

MINA Longstrike Kirjuun Heiian 1901	Posted - 2015.01.16 08:38:00 - [7] - Quote I don't think this is overall the best possible way to handle this idea, as it simply rewards people for taking damage then tucking into cover, or being given consolation points they didn't really earn for dying... I would like to see assaults / commandos / sentinels get some WP love for actually taking damage and pushing forward though. It would be amusing to see an "It will not die! +X" pop up on screen. Overall I think this is something that probably might be better relegated to the territory of a daily mission (encouraging a player to sentinel while a friend logi's) rather than an actual gameplay mechanic. Maybe giving points for dipping down to reaaaaally low values of HP and staying alive (without being repped) would be okay with an appropriate "Undying +X" message. All of these would require not being needled and actually being in some level of danger - not simply dancing through bullets at 100m. Hnolai ki tuul, ti sei oni a tiu. Kirjuun Heiian.

That racks up quick if random hits matter or shots taken that drop you. Well only 1K at most would be soaked up per your life and if your doing 40K most you can give to a player on average is 100 WPs on current math. also i like the idea of a daily mission might be better and simpler to implement to prevent boosting. But seeing those points flash across the screen "It will not die" would also be cool and awesome. hmm idk which would be better :D I am the all mighty Tritan. Fear me for I am a MassHole

This way it rewards you for surviving for a long time while being actively engaged by the enemy, rather than for dying, and basing it on a percentage of the suitGÇÖs total Health it would work for any suit from Scout to Sentinel. The specific numbers are debatable, of course. Maybe it should start after you take 300% damage (three near death experiences). Hand/Eye coordination cannot be taught.

I like this because it allows all types of suits to get the points from it. also dose prevent you from going out to get your self killed for points. Also would make it harder to boost for WPs in FW. Biggest problem with this is rep tanks and shields would get more of these points then stacked Armor plates unless a logistics is repairing the team. Still though this could work better then the direct HP system. I am the all mighty Tritan. Fear me for I am a MassHole

If a player is soaking up the damage and keeping the enemy distracted and you take advantage of that to kill them the player that is got the agro should get rewarded don't you think. In a way that is supporting you. Even allows you to flank enemies really hard. I am the all mighty Tritan. Fear me for I am a MassHole

Kierkegaard Soren Eridani Light Horse Striker 651	Posted - 2015.01.17 17:56:00 - [25] - Quote WP could be earned through damage received as a total value at the end of a battle, which is tracked and indeed displayed at the end of the match. Either you earn after a certain threshhd of damage has been taken or, better yet, WP is earned at an exponential rate; the more damage taken by the end of the match, the higher the reward.

The-Errorist 965	Posted - 2015.01.20 21:52:00 - [27] - Quote Bishop Harcourt made a trello card expanding on the idea of Role based bonus WPs. Here's what I'm suggesting it should be like: Assaults: Gain an additional 5 wp for each kill, 3 for assists. Sentinels: Once you take 4000 damage you start accumulating 20 WP for every 1000 damage you take after that until you die. Using percents would penalize HP stacking which would be counter-intuitive for the role of damage soaking. Logistics: Stays the same. Scouts: Gain 5 wp for passive intel kill assist and hacking. Commandos: Gain 5 WP for every 250 damage applied to enemy team. These are example numbers. MAG + Dust cb vet, an alt of Velvet Overkill & Agent Overkill AKA Enkouyami (Main PSN).
