Security Guard: The ability to hire guards to protect you from attack depends on the contract.

Concept: The concept of this suggestion is like the security of someone who won the lottery. you can't attack/mug him for days or a week.

Reason: since mugging is very constant in the game, Players who do buy and sell or play in the casino are too much afraid of mugs. that's why I come up with this idea why not ADD SOME ABILITY TO PAY GUARDS TO PROTECT YOU? without flying abroad.

Example: I will hire a guard for 5 to 30 minutes (there is a cool down) and it cost me maybe around 1m to 20m (depends on you), because of that I can now do trades, sell my bulk points in market and put my expensive items in my bazaar without worrying from muggers. :)

Now, the question people will say if that is the case game will become boring. well there is a solution for someone who wants to mug a secured target, the answer is someone who works in the army or some companies by its specials. Just like for example someone who works in an army can bribe the target costing 15 -or 30 points and disable the security of the target.

or

when you initiated an attack there should be a page saying "you can't attack the target because security forces surround him" then there is an option for you. bribe the security? it cost $1,750,000? why? because the target paid $1m for security, so all you have to do is to double or increase some amount to disable his security. very similar with bounty method.


or

you can attack the target with his security if you have insane stats. for example the security you hired got 1b stats and you have also 1b stats total of 2b, the enemy got 4b. 2b vs 4b = 4b wins.

also, there is an alternative way like in the case of faction warring.

for example..

if someone is chaining and his target is secured then all he has to do is to bribe/buy his security off.
take note that there is a cool down, the target can't manage to hire security again until the cooldown ends or you can only hire a guard once a day.

conclusion:

there are so many options for you.

1. you can use army or company points for you to disable the security of the target
2. you can bribe/buy off his security
3. you can attack the target with his security. make sure you got insane stats.


PS: to avoid abuse of using security guards, we can high the amount maybe around 30 to 50m.

I hope you understand my view. thanks.

true players security can't protect you when there are offline and they don't know when someone will attack you.

Who exactly does this help? It doesn't help newbies as this protection can just be bought off... It doesn't help active players as it just slows inactivity and adds a dull element of micromanagement... It would be abused in warring and at the end of the day combat is essential in this game. Man up and deal with it. This is not a good idea.

If i can bribe/buy his security off, then why put the whole system in place ?

It will only benefit rich players, pretty useless
OTHELLO [890484]

I wouldnt dismiss this idea out of hand. It could get Interesting.

For Example, a Body Guard could be added into a fight (obviously everyone would high stat body guards, but you could still mug the target)

Also, a losing body guard would be hosped. . Medical cool down will also be in effect.

People who employ a body guard should reflect in on their status as an Icon. People with nothing to protect will not of course hire bodyguards.

People applying to be a bodyguard should have an energy cost.

They should have a section in the newspapers where they post and are hired.

Each contract should only last 24 hours.

Just some thoughts ... (its boring flying)

i do not like this idea since mugging is feature of the game
its like saying pay X$ to get crime experience/battle stats/work stats
