Power Level is the driving force behind this roleplay.
Through Power Level, fights are largely decided. A battle can either be a one-sided beating, or a drawn out encounter full of emotion pitting multiple characters of differing convictions against the other, usually with an epic build-up and a beautiful ending. It is the latter that truly realizes what a Saga Battle is meant to be. Currently, the power differences between the differing causes is a tremendous gap, one that will take months to overcome for each and every villainous character on World of Dragonball: Souls.
It has come to my attention that the villainous characters formerly overpowered the heroic characters until recently, but the monsters and madmen of this forum are currently in dire need of assistance in closing the gap so Sagas can erupt. Without a substantial boost to their power levels, many will lose interest and without villains to battle, the heroes will lose interest as well. Worst case scenario: the site will die, best case? Members will be lost.
I don't want to see either of those happen.
Allow me to give you a bit of back-story. I was formerly the one of the strongest members of the forum that predates this one, World of Dragonball: Resurrection. I felt the overwhelming weight of the players with weaker characters, why try when I could grind power just as hard on my own character and had access to gravity chambers, weighted clothing, sparring partners, and the ability to enter each and every saga without being a fly in the grand works of things? When a weaker character stepped into a saga, they risked immediate death. When a strong character entered a saga, they received huge sums of power for the battles they took part in because they stayed alive that much longer.
High power levels led to nothing but larger gaps between the weakest and the strongest.
Increases in saga gains were implemented for the weaker characters, and saga participation exploded. Sadly, this roleplay doesn't have a single character capable of going toe-to-toe with the current leader, Athren, except Nai-ran. Both are of good alignment.
To encourage the playerbase to continue their grind to greatness, I'd like to see the following concepts implemented.
Increased Power Level Gains of 150% for ALL characters, heroic or villainous, <70% of Athren's current power level. Should another surpass him, that <70% mark will be applied to the new character in possession of the highest power level.
Holy Water to be given to Heroic Characters by the Earth's Kami when it has been deemed by the staff that the character in question has the potential to be a driving force behind the development of the site's story.
Unlocked Potential to be given to Heroic Characters by Guru when it has been deemed by the staff that the character in question has the potential to be a driving force behind the development of this site's story.
Seeds of Might purchasable from the Item Shop for a hefty sum. The seeds must be planted on an actual planet, produce a number of fruit decided on by the administrative staff, and the Tree of Might must be defended until it reaches maturity so it's Fruit of Might can be ingested.
Increased Power Level Gains of 110% for ALL characters, heroic or villainous, posting on New Vegeta and Arcose, when they are implemented, to boost the Villainous Saiyan and Arcosian populations, as well as increase interaction on those planets.
