I don't want have everyone freak out again over this issue but it just seems the majority of people who didn't want item loot now sit on blue99 while red99 is dead...Maybe could we try like a week with item loot? I just think that it really couldn't hurt at this point...and it give people more of a reason to play on red server I mean item loot was the best time in this games history IMO...4 lvls 1 item...

Don't change a rule like this after non-beta launch.

It's just a bad idea.

I want it, but it is a bad idea.

I agree it's risky but...the server is dead...what could it hurt we'll have 35 people to play with instead of 50...=\ I just want some life back on the sever the exp bonus helped but even if they had to shut it down and re launch id be down(people keep thier gear though)

We don't need 500 people on this thing to have PvPing and raid contesting.

If anything, find a group to roll with and you can camp whatever you want, wherever you want or PvP for it.

Just guessing, but you are a caster? Item loot doesn't work.

Item loot except weapons. (Let's face it, looting weapons from melee is like deleting spells from casters.)

if item loot were to be implemented no drop tags would need to be eliminated for it to not be shit.

Then what stops people from using PVP as a way to trade no drop items?

I agree with harrison...and item loot worked fine just gotta be on your game bag your gear, pull a hp item befor you die...i actually play a sk and ill ht myself if i dont think it i will kill them there are ways to win and if your a mele and you happen to catch a caster with a mob or at half mana or a crit u can win its a game i mean casters might have the advantage but no one makes you play a melee...people seem to forget ldon killed pvp it worked fine for years...

no drop is no drop...cant be looted even when item loot was live It actually makes no drop loot more valuable!

Pras. This is why VZTZ plane loot was all droppable.

And yes for item loot. Id rather farm Nihilum for gear then poopsock this shit.

the fact that they could use the trade window instead

The only time melee suck is trying to lone wolf it. Get a guild and run around raid buffed raping everything with a healer.

Item loot is not functional. It takes one week of 4 naked wizards and 1 bard for everyone to burn out and quit. Item loot has done nothing but decrease the population for every EMU it has been implemented on - it will do the same thing here.

then the server can be filled with naked casters for the true classic experience

Item loot actually gives people incentive not to fight. The blue fucks on this server already gate the second someone in range zones in. And this is when they have almost nothing to lose. With item loot they will have scouts in every adjacent zone and gate instantly.

I like it, it just won't work.

I already said i play an sk lol Item loot will do nothing but decrease the population lol!!?!?!?!? there is 60 people play at most times how low will it go? those 60 aren't going any where even if you added loot...all it could do is give people a reason to want to play because item loot is fun! and all i hear is about how these naked casters will rule...all u have to do is check whos in the zone and be on your game with bagging gear or pulling a hp item and i play a sk so i can ht them or myself if i dont want them getting the kill...say you're scared and its too hardcore for you fine but don't give me bullsh*t about server population lol are you playing the same server as me?!?!? ill run from coast to coast and maybe see one other person server is already dead...All i want is that one week of loot and If the naked casters take over then fine put it back. but as of now its a ghost town everywhere!!!

Item loot would be alright except u dont have 3000 n00bs playing this game like back in 2000, u have 100 vets and 25 pepople who just like everquest, ur gonna have 90 OP classes 10 clerics and 25 people who dont know what to pick because they have never played the end game of EQ and dont know the OP classes. Your gonna have groups of 4 or 5 friends have 6 SK's camped in Guk/solb ur gonna have these guys log in there SK's chain HT a few people loot a couple items log back out, ur gonna have people running around in ganks everywhere, ur gonna have groups camping port in's, , item loot is fun but it brings very little "PvP" it brings more Ganks in groups, people gate on site if they have no mana or know they are going to lose the fight or will just bag all their gear(some do this now but watch the % increase by alot). Item drops would have to be increase because who wants to spend 5 hours camping some item for 6 guys to roll up and gank it off you nowadays. I would be for item loot but you wouldn't see any pvp nowdays, just 2 many people who have played this game for 13 14 years, and know all the in's / outs and all the OP classes now.

PS. also the way root works and how Bolts are working i dont think item loot should be put in.

one pvp item loot would just lead to corpse camping.


Make it full loot.. then no bitching about Q.Q my corpse is being camped.

All im saying is what could it hurt to try? all i hear is theories on what would happen how horrible it would be...people talking like they know. just like they knew item loot would kill the server...that is dead...why are people so afraid lol ud rather sit in a zone by yourself then have like you said groups of 6 ganking people. or following people till they get low on mana or with a mob then ganking...you know what that sounds fun lol!!! u could be the one doing the ganking....

item loot, omg come on server will take a big hit in population yes me and you want in, but it would just ruin the server.. we just got another 25 people to play. Lets not lose it and tbqh it took months to get a patch, not even worth talking about anything. If anything there should be Global OOC talks

As far as the people here? I'm not sure there's anything that would "make them quit" at this point.
