I was thinking, what if they relabled/reworked Seasonal Servers into Tuvala Servers.

Currently it takes 5-7 hours for some players to get Full Pen Tuvala, while others struggle for 2-3 months before finally getting Full Pen Tuvala.  Since there is a gear cap that can be reached so quickly there really isn't a point in resetting the "seasonal" servers every 3-4 months.

Instead rename the Seasonal Servers to Tuvala Servers, so we have Tuvala 1 (novice only) Tuvala 2-4 and Tuvala (PvP).  Make it so you can graduate whenever you want, however you can only get a graduation ticket once every 91.

Getting a Graduation ticket gives you the same 13 tickets to make Tuvala useable by any character not just the seasonal one, and it also gives you 1 Fughar's Gift ticket, currently called Season Exchagne Coupon, allowing you to select anything from his list, any of the Pen Capotia Accessories, Perilla's Star, or a 100 FS.

Once you Gradute you can create a new seasonal character imediately, so there is no more "You can not gradute yet".  

This will stop the "When can we graduate" cries 2 days after the season is restarted, followed by, "When is the next season", "OMG the season is ending too soon", and the "OMG WHY WAS THE SEASON EXTENDED" problem.

Like I said, stupid idea or brilliant.  Thoughts?

The main point of seasons is the fact that PA can sell it as "content". If it would be just a regular server with tickets every 91day to convert gear, then it would become even more irrelevant than it is today. It already ain't offer much for most players, without the promotional events and other free stuff, most players wouldn't even bother with it.

Free stuff, and getting two for the grind of one via timepiece.

The OP's thought is rough around the edges, but is worth some consideration / adaptation.  Cat's point of PA's purpose is salient though,

Stupid v. brilliant: probably both :)

I think I'm still confused on your idea a little >-<

Rather than 4 resets a year putting players back to zero only to have some players speed to the end in a day, where as others struggle for whatever reason sweating because it's getting close to the end of the season and they are not done yet.  It would allow players to set their own schedule.

What worries me is that this idea might turn into the "Oasis 2.0 event". Because at a seasonal server nowadays isn't too difficult to ehnance(but still RNG reliant) PEN tuvala, compared to pre-Season+ last summer. Imagine, if we could make a seasonal char and make it to full PEN tuvalla, graduate, then make another, rince and repeat.

If I am to be honest, I personally think seasons are fine as they are currently and I am OK with it. I would add more, but it's an entirely different topic.

Seasons already is to an extent Oasis 2.0

EDIT:

To add to the Oasis 2.0 point.  We did just get the ability to reroll Narchillian gear to any class we want.  Oasis gear was really only used for boss alts anyways.  People can actually use Narch gear to try things out to an extent now.

Nope. They want end same time as they will start new season with new class and new winter content.

What op wants ain't affect ~99% of the bdo players, as everyone, even the most casual bdo players did seasons, multiple times already. The only reason for the overwhelming mayority of the players to do the seasons is the free stuff PA give away with the seasonal events (which would be removed implicitly with the suggestion).

The only corner case where this suggestion actually would change anything, is if a new player would join right at the end of the current season, as with this suggestion he would not need to wait untill the next starts. But this is not only a corner case, but bdo also not in the growth stage anymore either, and the number of new players is basically insignificant nowdays.

One can point out many flaws in the season system. In the first place entry level gearing sohuld not be tied to seasons, it's only due PA's lazzyines that they just recycled old content so they can sell it as new "content" for nearly two years now.

Ideally the main questline should give a decent starting gear for the players, which by the way PA did improve with the naru and narchian gear. Obviously if they would have more competent developers they would've merged the tuvala into the main questline(or more precisely they coudl've got rid of the whole tuvala, naru, narchian BS entierly), and they could've given a family bound boss gear with the main questline with guarantated enchament stones at key points up to TET level, and then they could continue with the guarantated PEN afterwards...
