RvR Quartermaster System SummaryThe RvR Quartermasters are "Barter" merchants who will trade players special items and equipment in exchange for specific items earned in RvR. These Quartermasters offer players an alternative way of obtaining items in RvR such as the item sets normally obtained via Keep PQ bags. In addition the RvR Quartermasters will offer exclusive items and rewards not obtainable elsewhere.System Goals * Incentive RvR performance and participation * Further expansion of RvR rewards, including specific "Disposable" or "Renewable" items that help RvR performance * Award all players that participate in various RvR activities regardless of contribution or luck * Provide players with an alternative path to gaining items that gate later content * Help offset "Bad Luck", allowing players to obtain items they may not have gotten out of PQ's due to unlucky rollsMedallions & Crests - RvR CurrencyMedallions are the basic currency of the Quartermaster system. There are two basic types of Medallions they areCommon MedallionsCommon Medallions are the basic barter currency used in the system. These are the medallions that are handed out frequently and in larger quantities for most RvR events. Players will use common medallion types to purchase lower level equipment and disposable items throughout their RvR play experience. In addition common medallions will be required as part of the purchase cost for unique powerful items.Common medallions are awarded in Tier 1 through Tier 4 and come in 4 types * Recruit's Medallion - Tier 1 RvR Medallion, 5 recruit medallions can be exchanged for 1 Scout's Medallion * Scout's Medallion - Tier 2 RvR medallion, 5 recruit medallions can be exchanged for 1 Soldier's Medallion * Soldier's Medallion - Tier 3 RvR medallion, 5 recruit medallions can be exchanged for 1 Officer's Medallion * Officer's Medallion - Tier 4 RvRRare CrestsRare crests are awarded less frequently and from very specific events.These Rare medallions are used in combination with common medallions topurchase powerful endgame items. The types of Rare medallions are below * Conqueror's Crest- T4 Campaign & Fortress Medallions. 1 Conqueror crest can be exchanged for 5 Officer medallions * Invader's Crest - Early City Siege Crests. 1 Invader Crest can be exchanged for 5 Conqueror Crests. * Warlord's Crest - Advanced City Siege Crests. 1 Warlord Crest can be exchanged for 5 Invader Crest. * Sovereign's Crest - Endgame RvR Medallions. Sovereign medallion can be exchanged for 5 Warlord Medallions.Earning Medallions & CrestsThere are numerous ways to earn medallions in each Tier, in the below section we will cover the most common ways of doing so.Player killsEvery player kill has a fairly reasonable chance to drop a medallion appropriate to that players level, this medallion can then be rolled on by group members participating in the kill (or master looted). This will occur in an RvR situation including outside of the oRvR areas and in scenarios. Below are the level ranges for player dropped Medallions * Rank 1 - 10 : Recruit Medallions * Rank 11 - 20 : Scout Medallions * Rank 21 - 34 : Soldier Medallions * Rank 35 - 40 : Officer MedallionsIn addition High realm rank players have a small chance of dropping rare crests in addition to their normal common Medallions drops. Killing a high RR player could possibly result in multiple rare and common Medallions awarded! * Realm Rank 41+ : Conqueror Crests * Realm Rank 51+ : Invade Crests * Realm Rank 61+ : Warlord Crests * Realm Rank 71+ : Sovereign CrestsKeep CaptureANY player who participates in a keep capture will be rewarded 2 common medallions appropriate for that tier content. Players who win a PQ bag will have the choice of taking the item out of the bag or a medallion reward instead. Players who do not win a PQ bag will automatically be awarded medallions directly into their inventory.Zone CaptureANY player who participates in a Zone capture will be rewarded 5 common medallions appropriate for that tier content. Players who are credited with participating in the capture of keeps / BO's will earn additional medallions when the zone is captured. These rewards are as follows * +1 Common Medallion per BO * +1 Common Medallion per KeepTier 4 CampaignRank 40+ players will gain rare Crests for participating in the T4 Campaign and unlocking the capitol cities this includes the following * 1 Conqueror Crest per T4 zone captured (rank 40+ players only)Fortress Capture / DefenseAll players will be awarded Rare Conqueror Crests for participating in a Fortress Capture or Defense. Just like keeps these will be awarded directly to the player if they do not win a PQ bag or available as an option to players who win bags. * 1 Conqueror Crest per successful Fortress Capture * 1 Conqueror Crest per successful Fortress DefenseCity InvasionCapitol City Invasion rewards a number of different Rare Crests depending onwhat part of the City Invasion you participate in. Generally these rewards workjust like Fortress and Keep rewards and are automatically awarded to the playerat the end of a PQ. * Main City PQ (Invasion Stage) - 1 Invader Crest per completion * Warlord City PQ's (Sack Stage) - 1 Warlord Crest per completion
Quartermasters & Purchasing ItemsPlayers can exchange their medallions to Quartermasters for a variety of different rewards. While the rewards are limited to RvR set items we plan to expand the rewards further with later patchesTypes of Quartermasters Each Tier has a specific quartermaster who will accept medallions in exchange for items. Currently these quartermasters can be found in the Marketplace region of the City as well as in Guild Halls. * Recruit's Quartermaster - T1 Items, found in Capitol city & Guild Hall * Scout's Quartermaster - T2 Items, found in Capitol city & Guild Hall * Soldier's Quartermaster - T3 Items, found in Capitol city & Guild Hall * Officer's Quartermaster - T4 Items, found in Capitol city & Guild Hall * Royal Quartermaster - City Siege items, found in Palace & Guild HallHow to make purchases & What you can buy?Trading in Medallions is easy; just find the Quartermaster who has the goods you desire. That Quartermaster will have a special Store listing all of the goods for sale, all you have to do is purchase the item as normal and the appropriate number of medallions will be removed from your inventory.Currently the items available on the Quartermaster are limited to set items and some simple RvR only potions.
