Some ideas for next strongholds

Recommended Posts

Here is a list of suggestions for future strongholds:

 

 

Voss:

A house in the Voss style with a balcony and 2 floors with 3 rooms per floor (house size => like Dromun Kass or Coruscant). A good example for that could be the Tower of Prophecy.

There will be a garden or a park with Voss style too + a small cave (a little bigger than the killik one) with 2 cavities.

 

Bonus (if this stronghold isn't too big, but I think it will be good with this):

Add a small Shrine of Healing (3 rooms => 2 underground rooms + 1 room to the surface).

 

 

Dantooine:

An area with 5 structure (4 farms/houses + 1 barn) with the same size to the other ones we find on Dantooine and a (big) field to cultivate.

Some examples what I have in my mind or we could have:

What we could see in the distance when we are in our stronghold:

Bonus (if this stronghold isn't too big):

An other area with the first one (we switch areas with a speeder) with a small/medium jedi academy => central area for our starship + 4 rooms in the jedi academy + a small garden + a small crystal cave.

 

 

Makeb:

A house with Makeb style (mesa) on 2 or 3 floors with a little private garden located towards the back (stronghold size => like Dromun Kass or Coruscant).

 

 

Darvannis:

A mandalorian camp (like the area we have in the Knights of the Fallen Empire chapter 14 with the same area size for this stronghold) with 2 or 3 small bunkers (like the ones we have in Knights of the Fallen Empire chapter 14).

 

 

Feel free to share your opinion about that.

I have 3 of my own :

 

** Ski chalet .. complete with ski lift and slope to schuss or slalom and a beautiful view of a mountain side. A great place for R&R.

 

** Lake side cabin: complete with 21ft bass boat (hey ... don't mess with the dream !! )

 

** All time #1 favorite:

 

The space station on the outer rim. Multilevel: with 3 observation decks (one of which is totally 3-D outstanding). (Possible defensive network a possibility scattered in the surrounding area !)

 

I even took the time to put together a little story.. ( yeah it's a bit corny ... but I had fun !)

I agree we deserve more StrongHolds. I would love to see one on Zakuul

As an advocate for anything that revolves around Strongholds and decorations, I'd normally agree with you.  However, I would much rather have a thorough pass over our current Strongholds to fix hooks, degrees, placement, bugs and implement improvements like NPC limit increase, expansions using in game assets and a dev mode terraforming feature.

My ideas/wishes:
- Ziost (maybe Citadel in New Adasta, but with view of Ziost Daily Area)
- Zakuul Spire or Spire + Palace
- Iokath something
- Vandin Station + docked Ship (like from Chapter)
- Terminus/Thranta Ship and/or the transport ship from e.g Alderaan/Yavin Turret PvP map. E.g interfleet transprt between Thranta/Terminus and Transport sjio.
- Eternal Fleet Flagship
- Space Station (from Traitor arc, AbandonedImperial Listening Post)
- Oricon Fortress and Palace. Far too big for me to decorate it, but nevertheless having such SH would be nice.
- Copero during night/midnight could be nice, but it's the least I want.

After replaying Terror from Beyond OPS, I observed that this planet, Asation, is really beautiful too. So another idea/suggestion from me would be a SH on Asation.

imagine  if ,  instead of always focusing 95% of their paltry budget$ on that ridiculous Cartel Market cash-grab-of-reskins-x-infinity ,  EA would allow BioWare to implement DECO  'building block' pieces/schematics to loot-tables within all  Ops, for constructing your own eventual  stronghold ( multiple building styles, depending upon pieces you collect ) within that specific planet/landscape.

Talk about worthy of replay value beyond  'Seasons' hamster-wheel. :cool:

Reason: why can't there be more BALANCE between the coolest items dropping as loot/craftables, along w/ the CM?!?!

my Wish list:

1. Expand # of NPCs from 25 

2. Fix Manaan SH hook for accessibility for rooftop starship hook.

3. Add additional starship sized hook that would be in the water- Manaan (sort of like the ones for the Rishi SH)

4. add a Starship size hook (1 each) for both Kaas & coruscant

5. Voss Stronghold

6. Hoth Stronghold. (winter themed)

There's precisely 0 SHs that give a military outpost vibe. You can get away with decoing Tat. or Manaan  in this fashion. Y4 SH is plain cool as a Starfighter outpost, strong EP IV vibes there.

.......But no base design of any SH was  made  to feel like a military outpost.  There's at least 4 SHs  designed to give a penthouse-vibe. 0 designed to appear as if it were a,..stronghold of a wartime  leader.  I'd like to see actual Starfighter hangars and stuff.

Figured I'd toss my usual ideas here.

 

Hoth (at Night): The planet is quite lore and Legends famous
They could do it massive (Hopefully using that 64bit power to up the personnel/companion limit, why imagine placing every companion on your roster)
It could be a simple snowfield with a Hangar leading into a frosty base, plenty of Starship hooks or what have you
They could pump out few cartel snowy deco packs
They could do hidden areas, maybe a hidden force temple? A beast lair?
Fun for whole family (each class story)

 

Lehon: The unknown world
Complete with a wrecked decoratable sunken Hammerhead, nexu/rancor pet like Speedy
Scenic views of the bombed out Temple

The Ship: Thranta/Terminus/Hammerhead/Eternal Flagship clone
One could go as far to include a Centurion class cruiser or Interdictor model to appease KOTOR?
One to two Hangar bays, something medium sized, so the guildless or whatever can be appeased
Include an option to make them as a Guild SH, Why have a landbase when you can have a flagship and a command cruiser
Personally I just want a Hammerhead so I can live out my Trask Ulgo fantasy 

Port Nowhere: I understand it was in an Uprising
So theoretically any class/faction could commandeer it and make it a home


Dxun: the ruins of a certain Mandalorian compound

Voss retreat: House of Eternal Autumn

I really don't care about where it will be but Strongholds need to be more usefull than it is actually.
Mabye one day, we can create some holo of our toons and ask them for crafting in our stronghold.

Or some room which show decoration that we don't have (by holo) and where can we drop it

Or some kind of trianning room for our mount to level up them.

Or some stronhold reputation that allow us to craft faster/ more crit, more exp or loot or antything on the stronghold dependant zone

 

Mabye stonghold are easy to implement in the game but if that's not the case, I think there' s more waited content in others domains ;) (I did not talked about pvp lol)
