25% ain't enough reward. Sorry, bro. I'm not even sure experience gain itself is enough. I tried to explain that in a post in the past few days. EQ is like spaghetti. The changes you make have many implications.

Again, look at this:

The "risks" on this pvp server (everything else being equal):
1) You die in pvp and lose experience
2) You get killed by other players; not just NPCs
3) You're anon and others cannot see your level/class; to protect yourself
4) More often than not, you do not group with other guilds; again, to protect yourself
No, I mean look and READ and UNDERSTAND:

People keep underestimating the amount of risk on this server and on pvp servers in general.

You keep digging your own grave. You're killing off PvP except when ti's applied to PvE servers. You see, there's a pivotal lesson. This: It's easier to add PvP to PvE servers than it's to have PvP servers.

If pvp were a country, it would be Iran and blocking the Suez Canal with warships.
