What ends up happening is a bunch of uber geared PVP focused people pushing the shit in of a bunch of sheep afraid to equip droppable resist gear. Think resists are bad now? Imagine when people won't even equip diamond rings for fear of losing them.

People talk about item loot on RZ like it was a good thing, those are by and large a bunch of RZ non factors. RZ item loot sucked balls because it made PVP worse which was the whole point of that server relative to any of the other servers in existence at the time.

Any system that revolves around the people who are the most negatively effected by losing having the highest probability of losing is shitty. That's what RZ item loot was and that is how it would be here.
This is true, what a good post.
