The pvp situations ive encountered so far. (Only level 16)
1.) Got jumped while tabbed out by a ranger wearing raid gear at level 17. By the time I opened the window back up I was at 10%. Wasnt angry, ask to LnS. Was allowed to go back to my camp in peace.
2.) A player was camping in an area I wanted. Proceeded to attack. They gate, /pvpover.
3.) Someone attacked me (assuming they wanted my camp). Defended myself. After decently long battle they got the best of me. Probably the most fun ive had PvPing on this server so far.
1 and 2 were very lame though. To be honest, I joined this server because of the low population, but I want to be part of the PvP as well (eventually I want to play a PvP healer type). Is it better at high levels?

if you actively seek pvp you can find it.
if not, easy to avoid and never see pvp.
depends on how you play
end game content currently not being contested and there is no pvp over dragons atm.

I see, I was under the impression that TMO and Empire, and another guild (GG I think) were all fighting it out on top?

GG died. TMO not contesting, still gearing and leveling. Maybe one day.

honestly, end game large guild v guild fights are terrible anyway.. ends up just being a huge pack of mobs running around mowing ppl over
some people may enjoy it.. I definitely never found those large fights any fun with constant unintentional and intentional training.

it's very rarely a fair fight. someone is always going to be the better class, have better gear, have more levels, have more mana when the battle began, have more potions..etc
killing the other person in pvp is about being an opportunist

i disagree. the large fights with mobile rez stations and zone segment control are a blast
gg did pretty good at it for 1 fight. then they disappeared and never showed again. i was sad
probably sucks to be on the losing side of those hour-long fights though. not sure. never tried that
I see, I was under the impression that TMO and Empire, and another guild (GG I think) were all fighting it out on top?
naw, gg fled like a cowardly dog and bent the knee to tmo, who promptly refused to play in any meaningful way until velious drops.
meanwhile emp doin regular velious practice runs on beta. who is going to dominate the server i wonder and why? tmo setting up for failure and forum post fuel
basically no pvp on this server as per now xcept random encounters

These are the only fights that are fun because pvp is actually happening, otherwise pvp on red99 happens on zonelines and everyone runs / zones / plugs
its stupid
yeah fighting over vs had no zoning or plugging.
also was huge trains of mobs being pulled to the zone line from both outside DL and inside KC
was a blast!

yes it was a blast though and that night has a special place in my heart. coulda gone either way if u ask me. i was counting my pixels
but then gg died forever rip

That night gave me horrible VP train war PTSD flash backs. Nothing more than a war of attrition without a time limit.
The sev fight a lil earlier than that was fun though.

I feel my thread has been somewhat derailed into an epeen contest between two guilds =) But, I appreciate information all the same.

Set your movement key to /who
whenever someone new is in the zone, expect they are coming to attack you
if after 15 minutes they don't attack you, you can relax
memorize people's names, low pop=same people will attack you
good strategy if you see someone zone in that you know will kill you, camp for 10 minutes and they will have gone away as they are looking for easy targets to greif
lvl as fast as you can and you'll distance yourself form the scrubs who can't hack 60 pvp so they twink low lvls
enjoy

Also, ignore these forums. The retardest of the retards are 99% of the ones who post here and you'll most likely gain no useful information and a disdain for human beings in general.
I often take breaks from p99 because my retardometer gets into the red and I have to distance myself from the slime on the server.

There will always be some form of the "resistance" guilds forming together for the common goal of contesting Empire, even in Velious, but that time is not right now and probably not in the very near future.
The beginning of Velious will more than likely be a free-farm for the #1 guild. Down the road, maybe not. But I wouldn't expect too much in the first month or two.

Best fights I ever enjoyed in my EQ career was on live on TZ at TOV. We had ToV ent control and guild zoned into us was like 70 on 70. Had people piled up at the doorway to the hallway.

i think you must be confused, I was only in GG for ~3 days, was not in GG during the KC fight or any fight vs empire for a raid mob.
it is only an opinion.. my opinion is that those large battles are lame due to all the mobs involved.. and yes, like i said some trains are un-intentional, but there is also plenty of intentional training during those fights, and anyone who says otherwise is dumb.
i personally prefer 1v1 up to ~ 15v15 .. anything larger and its choo choo!

oh you weren't in good guys ? well you were an enemy to empire and died,same thing

plus you have been an enemy to empire so your reason for being in KC during mass pvp was obvious..

Twinks are not a problem on this server, atleast from a new, non-twinked characters pov. They exist, but the fact that I got ganked by a twink once in 17 levels makes it pretty much a non issue (atleast for me)

Doesnt matter if youre bad when the gear you have makes it impossible for my wiz with a solist icy wand to get through whatever theyre wearing. Thats an actual encounter, some guy just sitting there laughing for 3-5mins, tanking my solist icy wand nukes from top of shield hill in Crushbone. I didnt make much of a dent in his HP. The more i think of it, the events GMs should be doing is basically handing out gear to new bloods so they have some sort of fighting chance on the way up. Ideally this would involve special mobs like the WC werewolves during 2001 halloween event but i dont think this is happening.

Thats still an item vets would give a shit about. I would go for this sort of event and prize, but say, on a raid day, so only actual noobs get to participate or at least have some of em get a shot at it.

It's all about perspectives when you look at EQ pvp, some people choose to see something they like/hate and judge too quickly.
