Hello PA and fellow BDO players!

I think this is my first post on the forums so I'm not sure if such a feature has been requested or if this is the place to put this but here goes nothing lol.

With the recent addition of private PvE grind spots, I think now is a good time to make the suggestion for a private guild BA (battle arena) space. This idea came about because I sometimes host guild PvP tournaments. And while going to BA for this is faster, more convenient, and offers (basically) free pots, BA has other players who can/may/will interfere.

So, to get around this we usually just host these tournaments at one of the city arenas (i.e. Heidel, Calpheon, etc) which can have the same interference problem but is significantly less. But, even if it didn't have that problem 100% of the time, people have to travel there, use more expensive pots, etc. and so that's why I'm making the suggestion here on the forums to allow people to get the best of both worlds! :)

And even for guilds who don't host tournaments, this could still be very beneficial for any guild by allowing them a more private space for dueling, training and lessons, testing, etc., and without worrying about being teased while someone is learning or someone external interfering during these activities.

I imagine some counter-arguments to this would be that people wouldn't use the regular BAs as much and it would affect the social aspects of the game, or that folks who don't want to join a guild wouldn't be able to get the same benefits, etc. And while I can see some merit in these points, I don't think they would have too big of an impact on how many people join the regular BA as the feature got older.

I'd love to hear what the community thinks!

Thanks :D
