Was xp loss in pvp a good idea?
 
I dont see alot of threads about this, so im guessing people are content with it.

But making this poll, im curious.

I stopped leveling for 4 hours to pvp and the loss i got in pve was bad. Now try to imagine me stopping for a week to pvp (Cuz EQpvp is why i rolled on this server, surprise, surprise).
Ive tried to imagine it and the resulting pve grind made me come to this next conclusion:

Now imagine me quitting a server with 200ish mostly blubies who dont give a fuck about pvping and are doing big things in pve.

Voted yes. Unfortunately, the implementation was not effective, and in practice, there really is no significant XP loss in PvP. That is a big problem when the consensus of both staff and players was for XP loss.

Perfect example of why im outta here, these people never played on Rallos and i think the devs didnt either, this is nothing like the pvp fest that Rallos was. People run from pvp because the death penalty is too harsh. Its just a way for blubie poopsockers to control PVE. Boring.

There is not as much PvP going on because there is no purpose to it. Insignificant XP loss. Bound 1 zone away. Respawning with mana. Worthless and usually miniscule coin loot. There is no reward, and no risk. It's like World of Warcraft right now, and seriously needs to be looked at. This is not the EverQuest PvP that we remember.

LOL EQ pvp you remember?

You pvpd on Rallos because you had fun. The purpose was to have fun. Im not having fun because people are not pvping because of xp loss. Get it?

Face it, its a 12 year old game, it will never be anything else than it was. The only thing i was wishing for was a box where i could pvp with other folks for fun like i did 9 years ago. Im not getting that.

Xp loss from pvp is literally a solo db mob's worth of xp. It's nothing.
