one way to make basing/pking/sparring useful and allowing it to be more challenging is by adding daily assignments. in which players who get for ex let say 500 pks, 100 spar wins will get an ec piece. This modifier shall reset per day and having weekly assignments for like getting 1k spar wins or 5-10k pks a week will grant a full ec. That's just an idea if you want players to leave astros and start and get attracted to some pvp activities.
