First of all i will say it, I suck at PvP in EQ. 0 kills 7-8 deaths run away 4 times chased someone away 2 times.

Second of all this is a true thank you, no sarcasm.

Had a cool week so wanted to share with any interested.

Had some skirmishes at lfey sisters
Learned how to do suicide attacks against a group of lower levels. Learned about being debuffed and how persistent Mage and Necro pets will follow you relentlessly.

Tried to attack a troll SK. I was 22. He was yellow so maybe lvl 24. After two cancel magic and dot and nuke all my mana he had 80 health left. Lol. We made friends and tried MM for a little while.

Chased an enc out of zone with help from a butterfly. Few days later grouped with him in his bard Lisp in high pass and befallen. Cool dude, real good bard and a class act.

Also had some fun in HHK. Doc Holiday invited me to a group and after some kills, about two yellow exp, most of the group kill me without warning saying Flowers not welcome here. Then some silly comment in all caps in OOC. I ran back and did an AoE on the group, not expecting anyone to die but I couldn't let it go unanswered right? Turns out the guards wanted to help so looked like some may have died. I never train if your wondering but some of the group chased me upstairs. I guess I got no qualms about the sun tsu recommended strategy of hit then run to safety.

Went back later to hunt gnolls for faction they were green so I went to peek in the keep. Seen Basura, but I like him and he was leaving so no Pvp there.

I was sitting alone looking at the gobs, turns out they were all red so thought about leaving. Kneegromancer turns up and starts killing me. He's red so I run to the guards he follows and dies but almost kills me with his dots. Afterwards he says lets group, I say let's fight one more time first. He starts whooping me so I run upstairs and I learn that being dotted caused the guards to run down and kill him. At least we think that's what happned.

Then I give him 4 bone chips I had on me and we duo and I get almost a whole level. Real cool dude and very funny sense of humor. Hoping to group and PvP with him again.

Someone sent me a tell saying I should /role or /anon. I ask why? He says so people will not know where you are, your guild tag and your level. I ask How else can I get my recommended daily allowance of ganking? He says Good point.
So if anyone wants to kill me cause they don't like me or want to feel they are getting revenge for another Flowers actions please do /who all Ridez and pay me a visit:)

TLDR. I am loving this server and the folks I have met both in groups and in PvP.

Just started playing on R99 as well, and I'm having a great time like you are.

I'll admit I didn't believe the "Come Red 2015," hype at all, but after making a so-called Bloodpact with my brother and our mutual friend (we don't play unless we're all on) and getting a few hilarious group fights under our belts, it's safe to say we'll be staying here for a very long time.

Don't underestimate the power of the classic barbarian: rogue, warrior, shaman trio. Especially when that trio has been given great weapons by some of the most generous souls to ever grace EQ. All we need now is good MR armor, and maybe one or two pairs of Jboots.

Good attitude so far. We will see if you keep that attitude when you get killed and it takes you an hour to get back to corpse, then you get killed again...and again.... :)

Too many people just hug zoneline/plug when pvp going on, or like leavemealone likes to say in ooc, just gate before they attack. IMO if you want that, go to blue, but what can ya do (find their bind and kill them!)

I always felt this one of the major drawbacks to PvP on Rallos back in the day. Always wished we had the technology for much larger zones, but that's just the way it was.

I remember some folks would say anyone who LD after engage should die and thus be lootable, but so many people really went LD cause their video card, ancient modem or provider couldn't handle the game.

And that is not to mention the huge issues EQ suffered, especially in the first 6 months server-side.
