If you could create a unique GM Event/Reward...

[Toomuch]

What would they be?

Get creative!

[GinnasP99]

Illusion: Scarecrow item

[Toomuch]

I would do one that has something to do with traveling, with the GM RPing a collector, and asking for items from far and wide. The rewards, which there would only be like 5 to 10 total given out, would be some kind of ammo slot teleportation clicky that takes you to the firepot room in Timorous Deep.

[Lhancelot]

Guise of the Basher - Clicky rog/bard mask that granted Illusion; Ogre.

[mickmoranis]

I would endlessly spawn hundreds of level 10-60 undead in every zone in freeport that were KOS to every NPC in the zone as well as players, making the zone impossible to navigate without being attacked, banking is basically off limits. When killed by a player they would drop a common stackable item (like a finger or an ear or something) and have a chance to drop a rare unstackable item (A Heart of the Undead Legion or something).

In front of the of the city in the newbie yard of West Freeport would be a few NPC's, one of which is the Grand General Damitri, a paladin of the Hall of Truth of who was organizing a militia to fight the undead and save the town.

After the community had turned in a few thousand of the stackable items to the grand general's conscript, it would stop the spawning of undead. As a reward for helping cleanse and save the city of freeport the grand general will reward the player with 1 of a few rare items when they turn in the rare drop, non stackable items that came form the undead.

Turning in stackable items raises faction, the higher your faction the better the reward you have a chance of getting from Grand General Damitri.

Id like for it to take a few days of grinding for the community to end the onslaught of undead.

[skarlorn]

i'd turn cities into teams pvp zones and put NTOV loot tables on city leaders during a short window each day for a week

[ZiggyTheMuss]

I would like to see a GM event where a large pack of 30 level 60 wild dogs attack the EC tunnel and loot the plat off the corpses of everyone who dies.

[Ranndom]

Creative? Id have a level 1 Lord Naggy with 150k hp randomly spawn in EC with a 1000' 500 damage bard dot song spawn in EC and only drop 100,000,000,000 copper

[Murri]

An item where if you don't kill a tunare worshiping NPC/Player once every hour it will delete a random item off a random player every hour. A kill resets the timer

[Whirled]

Some great ideas ^ ^ ^

Did they ever make a Mummy illusion item? That'd be pretty cool having Rabies proc

[Lhancelot]

Potion of Randomness. This potion would alter the race, sex, or deity OR all three permanently when consumed by the character.

The Purge: Norrath Edition

Full PvP enabled, PvP death creates exp loss (albeit more minor), PvP kills give you +faction with something like ThePurge, death gives you -faction hit (system enabled so you can't kill the same person over and over or somehow game the system with a group of buddies). All server rules suspended (raid policy, ninja looting, training, etc).

Every mob in world is KoS and on same social faction (bankers, merchants, quest givers, etc). Only Bristlebane who appeared on the Butcherblock Chessboard is non-KoS. Bristlebane announces bounties on people via global message every 15 minutes, kills on those players named give additional faction boosts, players with bounty on their head gets additional faction for everyone they kill. Max-Ally faction after purging is needed for a quest chain.

Gather the blood of every town leader and return it to Bristlebane. Completing the quest ends the Purge, the reward:
1) You earn the title 'The Hated One'
2) 1ac helmet, the graphic just looks like Bristlebane's entire head on your body
3) Every faction in Norrath goes to max KoS for you
4) All participants that logged over 300 units of faction hits suffer -300 faction hit to all factions across Norrath

[Brut]

Couple days long event of Bristlebane teleporting around Norrath having a random chance of having his model on different named dungeon bosses, having a buffed hp bar, some halfling illusion proc ability and the usual classic god ae dispel gflux, dropping tons of consumable illusion items and whatnot (chance of guises I guess). Or just any NPC anywhere pretty much, just give people incentive to look around Norrath then notice "oh wtf this random Erudin Palace guard is Bristlebane!". Occasionally spawns as a raid target with the same alterations. Just random surprise Gorenaire roaming around Dreadlands but with huge Bristlebane model. Add goofy dialogue.

Final battle days later as a GM event in his throne room at PoMischief to put a stop to his shenanigans.

Monster Bash - Players are put into a pen with monster(s) and are forced to beat said monster or die. After monster(s) are killed, players are healed and a stronger monster(s) are put in the pen for them to defeat. Last man/woman/thing standing wins.

Town Invasion - Monsters are going to attack a city, town or area. Players must defend against the invasion which all climaxes at a final boss beyond an army of monsters.

PVP (1v1s / 2v2s) - Players are placed in an arena and must fight one another to the death. Matches take place until the final player/duo is victorious.

Capture The Flag (team(s) vs team(s)) - must capture the enemies flag/item and deliver it to their home base for points.

Scavenger hunt - items of a defined type are spawned across the world. Players all start in a general location and must search the world for said items. There is a time limit the people with the mobs of these items get prizes for 1st, 2nd and third.

Just a few, going to stop here for now. Ultima Online has done a vast amount of various events in the past. Most of my ideas stem from there. Could fill pages of this thread with ideas.

[xtraball]

The Killing Spree : Everybody is IN-VUL-NE-RA-BLE for 30 minutes. Exp is doubled. No loot.

[Amyas]

Race/god change pot

[xtraball]

The Race :
Going from Freeport Arena to Prince's Room in the Warrens, no SOW or JBoots, no port. First to arrive wins. Only untwinked lv 1 toons. Special reward for the fastest highest and the fastest lowest leveler.

[xtraball]

The ultimate EQ reward : have a NPC named after the winner and placed wherever he sees fit.

[xtraball]

Humans vs Zombies :
Two teams, each contestant is either a lv 1 human warrior or a zombie/decaying skel/whatever low level undead being.
Last man/undead standing wins !

[xtraball]

The Beat the Clock Survivor Game :
You are alone in a room filled with skeletons. Longest surviving streak or shortest all skels killed wins.

[SamwiseRed]

Illusion: Scarecrow item

We had this on red. It makes u kos. To everyone unlike aon

[xtraball]

The Fast Bone Challenge :
You have 30 minutes to loot the most bone chips.

[Jimjam]

I'd make a change to the spell Rabies.

Something like this:

1 : Increase Disease Counter by 1
2 : Decrease HP when cast by 5
3 : Illusion: Zombie
4 : Decrease Hitpoints by 1 per tick
5 : Add Proc: Rabies


So, anyone hit with rabies will get turned in to a zombie. And on top of that, while they are a rabid zombie they will also gain the ability to proc rabies on their own target!

Slowly, but surely, the entire server would succumb to the zombie plague.

To be honest, I haven't thought it through any further than this.

[Tuurin]

Something involving tradeskills. One of the best parts of Luclin and eventually PoP is that tradeskills actually became a useful thing to do other than grinding so you can complete shawl/ring/Garzicor. I had a GM smith back in live and thought Protection of the Cabbage (http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?quest=2420)quest was one of the cooler additions to the game (for me personally).

In terms of an event, perhaps it's something similar to PotC- gather a bunch of items made by gm-level tradeskillers that have to be turned in to a series of temporary-spawning NPCs in hard-to-get-to locations.

[Dirkus]

Guise of the Basher - Clicky rog/bard mask that granted Illusion; Ogre.

This item exists already from the GoD era.

Actually, apparently there's a GM event item for the Ogre illusion too!

http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=38350

i guess it's true, if it's been thought of already, it's been done. This means the dev work already has been done, and p99 could add it in, right? :)

[Jmcwrestling]

Please give me an Illusion: Efreeti clickable lamp

I would go around giving all members of norrath the gifts of Brilliance and pure thoughts and free HS XP

[dennardscott86]

Halloween 2017: Turn the Evil zones such as Loio, FoB, Freeport, Mistmoore, Overthere, Ect. into Graveyards and Horror areas filled with Goblins, ghosts, Evil imps and other creatures and have people kill them for Halloween candy. Every so often a Raid boss pops in the zone randomly and Everyone there has to work together to kill him/her/it. The loot will be determined by the amount of Rare drop candy you have. Mobs and Loot should be tiered based on Zone and Lvl capped. The Grand prize would be a Mask usable by All all casting Illusion: Ghost and Levitate. 10+ to all resist with stats of the 6+ dragon Neck

Project M

[Ennewi]

April Fool's

WC Caps send players to the middle of West Karana.

OT Hammer no longer procs, but still shows effect. In order to fix, players must gather materials from various zones (Fiery Jewel of the Underfoot, Block of Living Granite, etc.) and blacksmith them with the OT Hammer. Quest giver would allude to how easy the puppet string workaround is for the original quest, costing only a single charge/jade. Final reward would be a functioning OT Hammer plus some sort of 1-charge or no-rent potion.

Plane of Sky mobs descend upon the Ocean of Tears. Azaraks replace gargoyles. Spirocs replace aviaks. Sisters of Spire replace Sisters of Erollisi.

(Red server) SKs and Paladins Harm Touch / Lay on Hands are replaced with a new "Touch Hands" ability with a 50/50 chance to be either HT or LoH...so you may end up killing a friendly or healing an opponent.


Halloween

A nightmare version of Quillmane (Vilemane) spawns in South Karana, but only during in-game night. PHs would be one/two wandering shadow wolves. Chance of dropping Black Feather Leggings or Hooded Black Feather Cloak (-6ac -7dex Effect: Dead Man Floating).

Please if there's a god, let there be Project M again. I had so much fun.

Project M - A red EXCLUSIVE

There's your pop boost.

This is, quite literally, a stroke of genius.
