<p>Just an idea I really haven't thought through, but want to throw out there anyway <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" /></p><p>With this dungeon builder tool coming out, I think it would be cool to let us build BG maps. Maybe have a few game types to select from, and specify how many players are allowed... and maybe even some other tricks and gimmicks.</p>

<p>That seems like a really cool idea and I would be in support of such a thing if possible.</p>

<p>No!  You will PvE in Tundra, and do nothing else, even if it kills BGs! /SOE Mode</p>

<p>If I could build my own I would make a PVP version of Freethinker's Hideout.</p>

<p>If SOE really wanted to be amazing and unique, they could loosen up a bit and release a limited scripting language to allow users to write code for the dungeon environment and objects to perform special actions and etc... change the physics such as slippery surfaces, super jumping, trick jumping, low grav, allow mounts, swimming, launch pads.... but anyway, I digress.</p><p>My first map would be a 12v12 CTF indoor dungeon the size of Ganak. There would be a large relatively open middle area with old stone/magic pillars and a couple of other objects to use for blocking line of site... also the floor would be uneven in certain places giving a slightly hilly feeling similar to around EL docks. There would be a lower level similar to the basement of Solusek's Eye with narrow pathways and moving platforms over a pit of death, requiring some Mario skill to navigate quickly and safely. The benefit of going this lower route if you have the skill would be quicker/shorter with less pvp. In the center of the basement would be a hole in the ceiling leading up to the main floor with a bouncy pad on the floor so players could drop down from top or bounce up from below.</p><p> If I could I would make the flag give the carrier a buff that siphons your soul (reduces mit and avoidance) while creating a CC reactive shield that also does moderate damage. What do you guys think? Sound better than Tundra?</p>
