If AGS analyzed client telemetry and server-based data, they could “teach” the AI the most effective combat combos and strategies. Imagine a set of expeditions based off of the Varangian Knights (who already use some of the skills that characters use). Imagine an M10 where all the stops were pulled out, and the mobs you were fighting were using combat tactics and combos that came from the best of the best players from around the world.
Sounds scary and fun at the same time!
I like this idea
Varangian knights has a lot of potential, it’s really nice addition to the game
Unfortunately most of the player won’t even notice them because they are low level mobs
AGS could use a machine learning to increase effectiveness of varangian weapon builds against players
Also two expedition first for low level (short like amrine) and second for endgame would be nice
Hello hello @StoiclyResigned! I’m digging the idea. I think that would bring a little more life into the Varangian Knights.
@Archiee Thanks for the additional feedback on this idea.
I will pass your ideas along to the Development team for review. 
Thanks!!
This could open up a whole new realm of possibilities. Players wouldn’t get asked to link their gear in order to get invited to a group. Instead, there could be a “leaderboard” of some kind that reflected the M-level of Varangian Knights expedition that the player had successfully achieved. And the bragging rights outside of group invites…oh my!
The content would never remain static because the AI would be refreshed on a regular basis (re-analyze the telemetry). In fact, THIS could be what sets New World apart from other MMOs.
If/when AGS implements this, my t-shirt size is 2XL ('cause I eat way too much trail mix while I game).
Thanks again!
Varangian Knights Colosseum a Solo PVE Arena in Brimstone Sands.
AI improves each round.
How further you get how better the rewards.
Game is lacking Solo content badly.
At some point I’m going to have to go see them 
. I have yet to do so.
Would this be the first time a mmo has learning ai?
I don’t have much mmo experience but this sounds mental! Would be sick to see
First they should add the knights to end game content… i dont understand why they added a new enemy just for level 30s 
I really like this suggestion! That would be awesome!
@Wrinkle I’m not sure if this is new. 
But I agree, it sounds like it would make great content if executed correctly.
Thank you for the kind words 
I’d be down to talk with any of the content design devs about future content ideas, got quite some experience making custom content in WoW private servers.
Not sure if these Roman soldiers are related to Varangians, but I’m guessing they have same skeletal rig just reskinned. Would be even better to have those in the Colosseum.
