Monks in PvP?

But, if Null fucks it all up and makes it TZVZ part 2, which I have the bad feeling he is, then all of your imput is valid and you can enjoy your population of 70 players.

Yea, most people are just not going to enjoy a server where the majority of PvP consists of 6 people in ventrillo walking around attacking solos and duos. That's basically all TZVZ was with an occasional 1vs1 or 30vs30 guild fight.

In real EQ, the solo or duo players would just run away from the ventrillo gank zerg but Null caters the resist system to them so they're rewarded for zerging with free kills as they all spam CC spells while the rest of group kills the perma immobile target.

Catering the game to ventrillo zergers who fight 6vs1 isn't a recipe for a successful server. Neither is forcing people to group to PvP. If people wanted forced grouping for PvP, they would probably just play DAoC instead. EQ's main strength was that you could walk around solo and not have to worry about imminent death for not being in a group.

For example, False from Pandemonium.

If you are somebody on Eqemu it is because you have experience in being a strong player on Eqemu.

Most TZ players are free kills so not the greatest of examples.

I think you and Null could use a long candlelit dinner for you to express to him irl your laundry list of concerns about the new possible box.

Wehr this game just isnt for you anymore. Vent wasnt around early days of eq, i think eventualy roger wilco appeared but that was maybe around luclin. The new technology and interfaces and shit just has made this game into something you will not like anymore my friend. Even if null caters to your whines, there is just stuff that will be present that will make your vagina bleed. I hope the game becomes everything you want it to be but your endless list of cries just makes me think that its not going to happen. Either adapt or move on. A skilled pvper should be able to adapt and not only rely on shit he learned 11 years ago and flip out when he cant be a top iksar monk on a server were Evils are the flavor faction and QQ that SZ is the best server regardless of it shitting the bed after 6 months

That part is true, it's definitely annoying seeing people pretend that EQ is counterstrike. I still see no reason to cater the game to these people though since they are the minority.

The other problem is that Ventrillo ganking is the exact opposite of skill. You just /assist the MA then spam 111111111 while melees stand in one place hitting a perma-immobile target. That kind of PvP is a joke. Null and most Heresy seem to think everyone should play like this.

In real EQ, you can't assist train people (ie: 0 skill kills) since they would run out of range or behind a wall or something as soon as they noticed. TZVZ dumbed down PvP to the extreme and removes every bit of possible skill from the game.

It's more like since this is the P99 PvP server and not TZVZ, why do we have to deal with the exact same shit as TZVZ all over again? It was a dumbed down form of PvP inferior to EQ live.
