No PvP button!

Sometimes you just want to do your quest and be left alone! There should be a No PvP button you could click to disable PvP attacks against you. If you attack anyone while the No PvP button is selected it automatically goes away but you can't reselect No PvP for 1 hour of cooldown.

 

NO!!!

 

most pvp players will be very against your idea, but i will indulge the concept and offer some ideas..
~instead of button, it could be a buff/captians order
~it would have to be limited to a few zones/only be usable in 1 random zone per day, or only be for the zone in which you activate it
most pvp hunters know to prowl quest zones..not the best zones for players to farm in
~the cooldown would have to be longer..12-24hours
~would have to have time limit...like many buffs...only effective 1 hour
gives players chance to farm hard 1 hour/day..they can run 150/200 guild letter that hour
~a badge/icon (eg. farm tractor) would be above ship to let others know this status
~player would not be able to attack other players...if you want to be exempt from the attacks of others, thou shalt not expect to be able to attack others..so if a ship on fire or a weak ship sails by you, you've traded the chance to sink them for farming

 

another option might be farming quest(s)
~many of the same conditions as in my last post would apply
~could work kinda like monster hunt event, but for all npc's
~could be a daily-weekly chain quest...complete the 1st to unlock the next
noob, intermediate, expert...& insane level

 

Almost everyone would use that button whenever they are farming and it would be impossible to pvp on open water.

 

However, if it were limited as suggested by patient_0 it would not really have a huge effect and would allow for some more efficient guild XP/gold collection.
I like the idea of a consumable, perhaps like the Emblem of Peace, but with a once per server reset use.
