obviously many of you did not play on pvp server in 1999-2001 era
1v1 pvp is unbalanced as shit, some classes like necro/druid/mage are just too easy to pick up without gear support, where as classes like rangers/bards/paladins are just pure dog shit.
level difference is huge impact due to spells getting resisted, unable to finish your opponent happens a lot because in most cases you just can't stop them from fleeing, and then there's the map hill/elevation issue where players may warp or you see enemies running in circles, it's a lot of bullshit
the only fun time was in the first 2 - 3 months of launch, where large groups of noob lvl 1-20 would fight at noob zone lines. getting guard npcs involved by training, and sneak/invis atk while they don't have see invis. at later levels pvp just becomes full bullshit
