Starting to question the +/- 8 level dynamic

You further illustrate my point. Yes you had more like 16% hps. I hit you with how many nukes? How much dmg did they do? 10dmg maybe? And you never missed with your maul and hit me for almost max every time. The level difference is huge.


I chose to stop and fight someone red (turns out to be 8 levels higher than me) while you run from blues and higher and only seek out light blues (thus why you turned and chased me). My shaman was close and I could have brought him over and healed my mage, but I wanted to test how I could do against someone who out-matched me in gear and levels. What do you do? Start talking shit like some adolescent who just had their pubes grow in and thinks he's a man.

I was 29 and he was 37. Pretty hard man. Keep up that stellar job of killing light blues. I will be expecting some screens too. Please don't disappoint.

rofl weren't you the one talking shit in ooc afterward for "almost raping" me?

your mage tried nuking me like 5 times and none of them were whole resists, some were low around 10 damage, others were around 40, and i have 45 fire resist

you could have gated but you got greedy and wanted to kill me because i was already at 60% when the fight started

the only nuke your shaman casted on me hit for 40, which is what, half damage?

i only hit your shaman for max one time(75), 2 of the hits were about 30, and then 3 or so hits were 60.

No, I turned around and saw you were going to attack me. I saw you weren't full hps so I thought I might have a chance if you were only 3 levels above me. I did not know at that time you were a light blue predator. Haha, I got greedy? No. Some people like to face a good challenge. I haven't pvp'd in EQ since 2003 or 04 and am still trying to get my head around it.

You knew weren't in any real danger (though I got you down a lot further than I thought I would); if you had, you would have run. Even with 60% hps I bet you still had more hps than I did - prolly by 200hps.

Like I said, grats on your light blue kills.

OOR healing is an issue with ANY level restricted pvp.

Anything LESS than 8 levels ensures that people/guilds will frequently have OOR healers present; healers that are almost equal in level to the OOR combatants.

The dynamic system, when properly done, will deter this. So using it as a reason to not have properly implemented level ranges is not a good argument.

The most sensible way to ensure pvp health(which is very obviously vastly different than it ever was on live because of the manner in which you can already see this "community" handles itself) would be to put in the tiered 4 beginning, 6 mid, and then 8 end-game range.

The people who want FFA, no level range, etc. are just trolling so they can grief. They are terrible and we all know it.
