Improvement to OPLS updates​

Detailed description:

Hello Pika network developers​

I would like to suggest a few ideas that will improve players experience in Opls Game mode ​

1) Re buffing blizzard pots ​

Blizzard pots is a custom pot that apply a damaging effect to the player every second once splashed. Currently, after the recent re-addition of custom pots, the C pots have been unintentionally nerfed in a way that made it unbalanced:​

​

• Blizzard are not doing proper damage to players, players are chugging Clad Pots that grant Resistance III, negating the damage.
• This drastically reduces Blizzard’s usefulness in competitive PvP and removes its strategic value.
• As a result, players default to drinking clad pots, leading to repetitive, non-interactive combat with little variety.
  Also helpful in maintaining a competition with players who have very good or p2w gears.
  
  
  2) Re-Adding Tipped Potion Arrows (with 8minute Effects)
  
  In previous seasons, tipped potion arrows existed and granted 8-minute effects when used. These were fun and impactful tools.
  I suggest re-adding tipped arrows with a tiered duration system:
  
  
  Only Tier 3 potions applied to tipped arrows should grant the full 8-minute effect (e.g., Strength, Speed, Invis, etc.)
  Lower-tier potion arrow effects (Tier 1 & 2) scale appropriately with shorter durations
  such as strength 2 arrows will only have 1minute effects
  
  3) Expand Warzone Maps + Diverse KOTH Locations
  Current custom Warzone maps are approximately 230 blocks wide, which feels smaller compared to older seasons that had larger, more dynamic arenas. A wider Warzone improves combat variety,.
  Additionally, introduce multiple KOTH (King of the Hill) areas with diverse terrain types:
  KOTH in a building, KOTH on a custom warzone hill , And Weakend koth on the plane surface
  
  

Reason(s):

​

1) Why Blizzard Pots Should Be Buffed​

​

​

1. Makes Blizzard useful again — currently gets negated by Resistance pots.
2. Promotes potion variety — players won’t default to one potion type.
3. Balances fights — helps non-top-tier gear users compete.
   
   
   

   2) Why Tipped Arrows Should Be Added​

   1. Adds tactical depth — ranged buffs/debuffs change engagements.
   2. Rewards progression — Tier 3 arrows get stronger effects.
   3. Encourages preparation — teams plan loadouts before fights.
      
      
      3) Why Warzone Should Be Wider + More KOTH Types
      1. Prevents cramped combat — more space = strategic movement.
      2. Varied fight styles — building, hill, and flat terrain diversify play.
      3. Supports large fights — avoids overcrowding and stale metas.

1. The Blizzard potion issue is already being looked at, so no need for a full re-buff.- https://pika-network.net/threads/fixing-and-improving-ce.577629/
2. Bringing back 8-minute tipped arrows would create more negative impact — players would just stack them, take up inventory space, and it could unbalance fights.
