Item loss would have been great, but we are past that now. So im suggesting to have an optional mode added in: A voluntary flag for item loot.
How it would work is you flag yourself for item loot at an NPC (Priest of Discord?). You can now loot people who also flagged themselves for item loot. You would have to "KS" that person, IE make more dmg to player than other non-flagged players so that its harder to exploit. You could only flag yourself on-off every week or so. The only way to figure out if someone is flagged for item loot would be to kill them and try to loot.
This is a completely separate idea from the appeal to cutting xp loss, i think it would have a nice layer of pvp stimulation on top of the already stimulated pvp scene (because xp loss has been cut) and would be voluntary.
It would create an economy for low level items, making it more fun for newbs camping lowish end items as they are leveling up as people would actually buy those items to fuck around on item loot characters.
Feel free to critique this idea, im sure theres holes in it i havent seen, but please dont mix em up with my xp loss plea, they are 2 completely different suggestions, although they would complement themselves.
