So I was thinking on a post I saw that talked about having clan wars or faction wars. I started to think about how it would be set up, and this is what I came up with:
FACTION WARS: I Imagine it would be set up like the iron banner event. All three faction leaders would gather in the special event area.
When you walk into the area you can go up to one of the faction leaders and choose their mark to wear on your chest. Once you chose a mark, you will be stuck with it throughout the event. (You can also choose to bond with your friends by choosing the same faction)
When you choose a faction, you receive a class item, weapon, shader, and emblem from them. (Using all these gives you a exp boost in crucible)
Each faction will have their own sets of bounties. For example:
[b]NEW MONARCHY:[/b]
The golden flames. :
[i]New monarchy wishes to return to the golden age. All opposers will burn in the golden flames of our warriors. [/i]
Solar kills: [ 0/50 ]
[b]DEAD ORBIT.[/b]
Dead space
[i]send your enemies flying lifelessly into orbit. [/i]
Melee ability kills [ 0/20 ]
[b]FUTURE WAR CULT.[/b]
War never fails
[i]War is the only constant guardians. Prove to them that this is truth.[/i]
Consecutive faction matches won as a fwc member [ 0/5 ]
There would be a special crucible playlist that filtered filtered between clash and control. You could use faction marks earned through this playlist to buy new items from each faction. If you saved up enough faction marks, you could buy an exotic class item from the faction you joined.
Faction matched have increased rewards and they give you items from your faction.
Anything I miss? Suggest new things in the comments!!
Edit: wearing all items and weapons will give you a faction boost. Also, turning in bounties will give you more than usual exp.

Edited by MunkeezFlickPoo: 12/5/2014 3:57:26 PMThe idea isn't to bad, I would hope that when you join a faction that it becomes permanent. Kinda like the Horde/Alliance in World of Warcraft and if you do leave a faction you lose all reputation and items/gear earned? Then once a month Bungie have a faction War on the last weekend, were its a 3 team death match. All wins and losses are recorded to each faction and the overall winners get a unique item (doesn't have to be exotic, a weapon or armour). I think it would make it a bit more competitive but not in an aggressive way which can be enjoyable.

The class items, shaders, and emblems should give rep boosts as well. And the bounties that you get from your faction should give you more rep than a normal vanguard bounty. Other than that, I completely support this idea.
