I was thinking a simple way to make public events more important would be to add a buff for a gold completion. Such as stopping the mining team gives you a agility buff, or defeating boss/checkpoint runner gives you extra defense for short time. I feel like all the little tweaks would change the feel of the game. Maybe a fire team gets all the buffs and then smashes through a raid? Or maybe you could buy buffs from certain clans like death orbit gives extra void resistance for a while. So picking clan has mote meaning. Let me gets some bumps please. I got other ideas to add if this gets bumped.
