Mod Request - Arena Challengers

[HDubya24]

Being the Grand Champion of the arena becomes rather boring after awhile and killing Minotaurs all the time doesn't give much enjoyment either. My idea is to create a number of unique high-level NPC's that will challenge the Grand Champion, maybe once a month or so, just to add a little more depth to that aspect of the game.

 

Unfortunately, I'm no modder nor do I know the first thing about scripting but to those who would be willing to create this, I believe it would be quite successful.

 

Just an idea though.

Could you be a little bit more specific? This will be able to do depending on how they will contact you. Making every opponent unique is not likely going to happened (Ofc that depends on how unique you want them to be).

If it will be like the arena matches ( Sometime when you feel like you come by the arena and fight ) this mod will become completly useless in my opinion , It will just be like The creature challanges but with humanoids nd no matter what you will gt bored with this mod exaktly as fast as you became bored with the creature matches.

I think the bottom line is that there really isn't any challenge to the arena. Standard opponents weren't ever really interesting, and the creature fights don't offer anything that you couldn't get outside while running around.

 

Unfortunately, due to how the arena is setup, this won't likely change. There are some mods which do add a bit more variety to arena fights, but new opponents wouldn't jive too well with the existing arena scripts. I think what might work better would be a second sort of arena which you can fight in after being grand champion, and I believe there have been a few people who have tried exactly this. However don't think they ever released anything.

 

Also, in order to prevent things from becoming boring, any such arena would need fairly good combat AI, and a setting which is capable of some variety. If you have 20 some opponents to fight with, with more advanced combat methods (other than running in close every time), who use a wider range of weapons and spells, things won't get boring quite as fast. It will however require a hell of alot of work to get it done right.

If it is done right it would be a great mod and I would 100% download it. Hopefully someone takes a crack at it at least.

I agree with that it's a lot more easier to make a second kind of arena but wouldn't that be 2 mod like? Or maybie not.Maybie you can make a official arena of all of tamriel and fight to become Tamriels grand champion ? But it still requires a large amont of work.
