Asherons Call: Turbine's Proposed PvP Improvements

We know that the PvP community has been feeling a bit left out as of late, and we want to rectify this as soon as we can. Anything we add or change that involves PvP requires a lot of testing to make sure that it can be balanced. That being said, we wanted to come here and get your feedback on a couple of the ideas that we had mind. Please understand that we have not tested these ideas nor have we ironed out all the technical barriers to implementation. But before we go ahead and attempt something like this we want you, the players to let us know what you think. Now, I know what you will say... What about the ideas we have already given to you? We still would like to implement some of these ideas, but a lot of them require a great amount of tech time and testing, and we do not want to rush into anything that could make things worse instead of better.

The first idea we have discussed is a way for players to add a moderate bonus to any pre-existing Slayer effect on whatever weapon they are wielding at the time. There of course would be limitations to this so that it could not be exploited or abused.

The second idea was along the same lines as the one listed above, except this would be a way to add a moderate bonus to the attack mod of the weapon you are wielding. The same rules would apply, meaning there would be some limitations to this so that the ability would not be abused. Also note that the bonus to the attack mod would be on top of any tinkering that may have been done to the weapon.

What we want from you the players is feedback on what you think about these two ideas. I will again say that we have not even tested this yet and we are not sure that the current tech will allow us to do these things. We felt it was important to get your feedback on these things before we went forward with attempting any of these ideas.
