Clearly you are talking out your ass. The fact that pvp wasn't "balanced" is what made eq pvp so awesome. It promoted grouping, and it made players have to think when it came to fighting. None of the mind numbing one on one balance bullshit of wow. Combat was true combat. Fair fights are a myth. You do what you need to in order to win. Eq pvp brought that out more than any other mmo currently out.

Because nothing would be more rewarding than an exhausting fight in LGuk breaking Lord or Frenzy and pulling it off just before your healers go out of mana and your tank loses all of his HP, only to have a full mana caster gate in, gank you all with an AoE spell, and send your entire group on a 2-hour CR for the rest of the evening.

No thank you, I don't have time for that bullshit. Turn in your book so you can PVP with your like-minded PVPers to your heart's content while leaving the rest of us to the PVE game. Get enough people to turn in their books, and it'll be as close to what you're talking about as you can get, right???
