    Hello everyone,

    The 3.1 update for KitPVP version 3 is going to introduce some things that make ranked games better, as well as donor perks!
    We would like suggestions for what the donor perks should be. We are trying avoid donor kits as they break the Mojang EULA.

    So far we have been thinking about allowing donors to join more ranked battles (we will cap it soon), and allowing them to customize their shields. We need to make sure the current donors are happy, while at the same time attracting new donors.

    To suggest a donor perk you may post a comment. Please try to think of things that do not give donors advantages.

    Obviously I'd discuss this more with you in the staff chat, but what about a more advanced personal stats package that only above a certain donor rank can access? Like detailed stats.

    I have a few suggestions:

    1. You could try to give donors particles, which they can turn on and off.
    2. Maybe you could make it so that donors could have a quick select option meaning instead of having to go to the signs and select it (for battles only), you could add like a compass which they could use to join a battle easier.
    3. Donors could have a "Donor Battle" where donators only 1v1 there or for every battle (potion, quickhg, overpowered, build uhc etc) you could add an extra slot where donors 1v1 with the battle type chosen, but have it more op and more maps.

    It would not be a fair fight. I think most of the people want a "fair fight" so it will be more challenging, and fun!

    I don't see how adding another option for donators to 1v1 other donators is not fair for other players.

    Read the EULA more closely. There cannot be anything that is restricted from regular members. It must be purely cosmetic. Adding a donor only 1v1 restricts normal players from also doing the same ( eventhough it might not change the gameplay ). The first one seems like a good idea, but it might not be used much because most pvpers don't like too many particles. The second idea should be for everyone, but it'd be making the signs useless.

    I don't want to create spam or start an argument, but I just want to point a few stuff. First of all, you are right about saying that I had to read the mojang EULA more closely. Particles don't have to be in a battle or ffa, they can just be in the lobby or just used t have some fun with friends. Quick select option is usually for lazy or players who just want to join battles much easier. If this was added for everybody, I agree there would be no points for the signs, but if this was added for donators only, there would be use of signs for the players who are not a donator and signs AND a quick select option for donators.

    custom kit in ffa that has limitations so for example higher donor ranks say if you have a power 5 bow then your limit would be a wood sword and small amount of leather armour cant be to op so it would need to be balance tested

    Staff will discuss the ideas and determine the EULA stuff. For now, just make suggestions and we will let you know.

    Custom coded detailed ones. Like how many strikes with a sword, then types of swords, and so on and so forth for all the weapons and anything else you can think of. Distance run, distance fallen, etc... would be a lot of work I know.

    It is possible. Will most likely be a separate stats class due to the amount of extra data stored for only specific players. As well as a separate storage location/table.

    Exactly but I mean, it might be worth it to entice players to donate.

    Chat settings: When donors type something they will see a different color in chat. It's just a perk I thought was really cool.

    Anyone can do "/pvp join" if they do not want to use the signs.

    If they lag you, its possible to turn off particles in options. Although it would be smart to disable particles inside pvp matches.

    We could add prestige kits; after all.. you get nothing in return if you reset your rank (as far as I know). Donors could have more prestige ranks, but kits can be balanced still. It only could offer a better variety in kits, and not give an advantage over non donors.

    There are no invisible kits in Version 3.

    That would be a challenge.

    Due to the new eula, people should be able to donate for thins they don't get advantages. Or the server might get blacklisted.

    That is not the topic of this thread. We want suggestions and we will use the ones that aren't too pay-to-win.
