If you have coin loot....

[mimixownzall]

Are you going to make an area that is neutral?

As much fun as it would be to tell a guy you are selling a YK and have him run to you with 10k only to be dominated in an ambush, I see a lot of potential for gayness.

[Nirgon]

Because this never happened on live. No neutral zones for afking etc.

IS this a fucking joke?

[Nirgon]

He wants a classic zone turned into the nexus.

[Xantille]

IS this a fucking joke?

[JayDee]

Make them all safe zones and put little boxed areas in zones like lake rathetear and freeport flagged for pvp. Call them arenas.

[Vile]

Blue.As.Fuck.

Its this line of though that winded up destroying pvp in EQ.

PVP servers dealt with this on live with no problems. If your dumb enough to pull out a lot of cash with a lot of people in the zone then your dumb enough to lose it.

If your really worried about it, just do all large transactions on level 1 toons that cannot be attacked.

Assuming shared bank is in/you have trustworthy friends.


But yeah, just gotta make a deal that works for both parties involved.

It would be awesome to have a banker in EC tunnel.

[Nirgon]

No :P

[XiakenjaTZ]

I think you will find that trade will happen Greater Faydark. PP transactions on level 1s and item trades will happen wherever people meet.

What servers other than SZ had coin loot? My understanding was that SZ was the only coin loot server. Since there were teams, being drawn into an ambush and losing all your cash wasn't a problem since the only people you could trade with couldn't kill you. I don't even know of an instance where xteaming was done to ambush for cash. The only thing you had be cautious about was like getting your tink bag. A lot of cash made camping Sol A.

And level 1's doing the transactions? So level ones are going to be immune to PVP? I suppose you could dress them out in high hp gear and hope that you can bank the cash before getting killed.

Yes, the comment about 'safe areas' was in jest, but the main question is serious. I just want to know the ground rules before I plan out legal, but possibly very unhonorable ways of getting cash or making people throw their mouse across the room.

I also don't want the devs to be t-boned by unexpected consequences of the server dynamics.

You watch, after a few people lose 10's of thousands of PP, there will be big cry for these stupid 'safe areas' where money transactions can take place.

I don't give a shit either way... the more hardcore the better for me. My only EQ PvP experience was on SZ.

Fuck LNS
Fuck GM Micro managing (don't want them hating the server)

[JayDee]

it wasn't until like velious when they made the pre level 8 immunity or whatever that bullshit was.

Was pretty common place to see level 9s preying on newbs before that.

[Yukahwa]

To people who havent ever played PVP - The auction zone is greater faydark. Its easy to faction up at orc hill, and even easier to make a level 1 that hangs out at the bank.

No one trades at EC.

[mimixownzall]

Are level 1's going to be immune to pvp?

[mimixownzall]

To people who havent ever played EQ FFA PVP - The auction zone is greater faydark. Its easy to faction up at orc hill, and even easier to make a level 1 that hangs out at the bank.

No one trades at EC.

Fixed.

You don't know of any other server with coin loot? Really? Uhh... Rallos... Zek? FFA PVP? Coin and item loot??? Ring any bells yet?

No, level 1's will not be able to be attacked. Your question has already been answered. No safe zones. This isn't fucking PoP or Luclin. If you want a reasonably safe trade you do it at a bank that both parties can meet at. Don't withdraw your money til you feel it is safe to do so and if they decide to attack, yay, you're right there to put it back into safety.

Or drop transfer items you are sellin to the level 1 and auction them wherever you please. So long as you have reliable friends to xfer the money back ofc.

That is of course to assume coin loot even gets implemented, which we obviously do not know yet.

Like I said, SZ was my first PvP experience in EQ.

You guys seem mortified when any safe area or zone is mentioned, but are ok with low levels being immune to PVP?

Fuck that... No immunity. Hell you might as well have safe areas if you're going to allow immunity to low levels.

We've seen some ignorant posters in this section since the server announcement, but sir, you probably take the cake.

You make a post insinuating that you want safe zones to perform your precious trades in, then backpedal when you are called on it.

And now, you do the entire 180 and start flaming people with the assumption that anyone besides you is pushing for the 'immunity' that you seem to be asking for in your OP. Wah wah I want my fucking safe zones to buy my pixels in and if I can't have them then make level 1's able to be griefed off the server.

To clue you in, not a single fuck was given about your opinion nor question.

[vinx]

you arent pvp capable until you ding level 6. (5 if you shared a server with Fansy)
VZ also had coin loot when item loot was removed.
GFay was the auction zone (bank inzone/easy faction+ports were semi-close)
EFP could also work, faction is semi-easy but GFay is easier if you wipe CB a few times.

bank was always crowded with traders.. occasionally some ogre would block the doorway and people had to use the little side window or attack banker to pull him out. (pvp happened + people fell off platforms lol)

At the time.. coin was droppable
so i used to drop and log to an alt for xfers
when they took that out, then you dropped items/gems for xfers
(or find trusting souls for xfers lol)

Edit: just going to add, used to be able to xfer items/nodrop or cash to mobs also rofl
i remember doing this a few times in GFay

We? I guess you speak for everyone on these forums?

I 'insinuated'? You're a fucking idiot. That's what you wanted to read and that's what you got out of it.

Read my past posts, especially before Rogean finally announced red99's launch, and see exactly how 'soft' I want the server, chump.



And now, you do the entire 180 and start flaming people with the assumption that anyone besides you is pushing for the 'immunity' that you seem to be asking for in your OP. Wah wah I want my fucking safe zones to buy my pixels in and if I can't have them then make level 1's able to be griefed off the server.

Really? I started flaming people and said everyone BUT me is pushing for the immunity zones/areas? Where did you read this? I said I wanted the immunity zones? Really?

And what sense does it make that I would want immunity zones to 'safely trade my pixels' but then at the same time want to get rid of the only other alternative to 'safely trade my pixels' by getting rid of immunity for low levels??? Your logic is flawed.

I do not want safe zones/areas. I do not want immunity for lower levels. You know why? I want to be that asshole who fictitiously sells a YK for 3/4 of the price of everyone else to lure him out so I can rape him/her of their money and laugh at them.

That's why I want teams: Someone might care that you fucked over a friend who is in another guild or unguilded, but no one cares if you fuck over someone on the other faction.

To clue you in, not a single fuck was given about your opinion nor question.

Really? Funny, considering you have responded how many times to this thread, showing exactly how much you don't give a fuck?

call this p99 pt.2 while we're at it

[Nirgon]

But a modern MMO would never allow something like this! What a sham! They're really going to let this happen!?

:confused:


Did ya... play this... on live?

[mimixownzall]

Did you read anything other than the OP?

No
