The ability to wear the gear you've collected is what evens out the inherently terrible class balance as much as can be expected - a few classes will always be weak or overpowered no matter what, but it's a fact that this is only hugely amplified when people have to PvP naked, half-naked or in the awful no-drop gear you can get this early in the game.

So the gear that you have becomes even more valuable. No drop items even more so. Sounds fun to me :P

As for the level range, anything less than 8 levels seems impossible to me. With a few hundred players at the very most, you have to be really careful not to create an environment where it's hard to find people to PvP against at all. Look at blue99 with its up to 700+ players online - people below the endgame have a really hard time finding players to group with. If itemloot doesn't make it harder to find PvP (which it probably will because people will necessarily try to avoid it more than without itemloot) then a +/- 4 range certainly will, and especially +/- 2.

I mean +8/-8 to pvp in general, but there would be no item loot unless the players were in like a +2/-2 range of each other. Only coin.

If you devs do choose to let a poll affect your decision, please go with the one I made.

We don't make decisions based on the polls. My post was my opinion only, not necessarily what the server will be. If I played, I'd want it to be hardcore.

If your going to do item loot do it the TARWINE method on Altergate

1 item that is unequipped. So essentially you can go through there bags and loot something. That way there is risk vrs reward but you can't loot there precious pixel.

In late game stages you end up getting good pixels.

That's a cool idea as well.
