Idea [Question] End Cartel?

So about a year ago I was brainstorming up some ideas to encourage PvP / end activity and thought of having an ongoing event that would somehow provide an advantage to your entire team.

This is what I had at the time:

Spoiler: Starting Idea (2016)

• Have a castle like base in the end that players need to capture

• Have it 150 blocks out (in the void)
  • Players would need to build out to it
• Players need to race to get there, building is on
  
  
• Event is scheduled for once or twice a week
  • Team that holds it for the longest within x time?
    
    
  • Similar to koths?
    • See if WW cartel system would work
• Once captured, 10% of all shop sales will go to the team’s balance?
  • Subtracted from what the seller would get
    
    
  • So like an added tax

​

Ok so thinking about this now, gaining a % of shop sales would be WAY too OP. Adding onto my other post about my raid rework proposal, quickly brainstorming / revising this idea has lead me to this:

Spoiler: Revised Idea

• If team point / ranked system is added, have capturing the cartel contribute points for holding it the longest
• If not added, some other reward would need to be given (think of ideas)
  • Gold thing could work if the % was VERY small, and added to a team balance or something
  • Only would give gold tax for X days in between events
• Have a huge ass end castle that would serve as a KOTH and a defend / attack the castle
  • Design must be very good if it is in the void floating, multiple entry points and prevent bow spamming people bridging to it
  • Have the castle still there after event is over, timer would be off though
  • Building on, but have obsidian skeleton to make sure no tnt
• Have it randomly spawning a couple times a week or scheduled (what would be fair to people from odd time zones)
• How would it work if multiple teams are at the cartel / how would tracking the "capture" work? Test WW system / ask someone
• Other ideas / concerns:
  • Have the castle on land, would probably be easier, but less fun imo
  • Custom end build around this castle / event (Our plans are around on build somewhere @Eil for the last one we tried to make)
  • How would dragon interact with this thing?

This is mainly just a rough outline for Eil to help communicate my ideas, but I would like the community's feedback on this and any other ideas / answers to the gaps in this idea. Let me know what you think.

Side note: Remember the end of map period for the last 1.7 map? The end was filled with pvp, there were castles / structures everywhere and it was really really fun - I basically want to recreate that and have it around all the time. I want the end to be a dangerous area with high pvp, high reward and looking sick af.

I agree, it would need to be more different than koths. I did intend for this idea to be rather long compared to koths. So you are suggesting it's always active then? So essentially identical to the cartels in WW?

 

Ye that would be great. I'll hop on later today and show you what Eil and I had started last year, but we can always start from scratch
