server xp bonus

meh XP is XP. keeping it classic is the best idea. XP death on PVP death is not "classic" PVP rules at all. Sullon Zek Wasn't released for years after VZ/TZ/RZ (the "classic pvp" servers)

Classic original PVP servers started PVP at level 6. XP was classic. XP death only resulted from dying to mobs. I'm not sure if originally you lost XP for drowning for falling to death....but I remember only losting XP to monster deaths.

the level 6 before pvp is not classic, i had a delevelled newbiekiller that i kept at 6 in skyshrine (velious) armor.

You sure? I did a ton of low range PVP.... but it was always around lvl 6-15. I would wait on my friend enchanter in wood elf form but I was a gnome. So on VZ my tag was yellow to the elves running out from trains in crushbone.

they would zone out low life and I would just nuke them and get rage tells "You're hacking how can a fucking elf kill another elf".

I'd also have a emote key I'd run up to kids and I'd click it said.

Laeli has stolen 7 platinum pieces from YOU!!! and they would follow me around talking shit saying give me my money back hahahaha.. but yea well then if its not level 6 to PVP. then amen. PVP at level 1?

People that respond to things like deleveld PKs with anything other than "lol thats rad" just don't get the pvp server experience at all. Yeah it "sucks" to have one of them backstab you for billions at level 9, but there's a certain comedy about that kind of thing that you need to get to really enjoy EQ pvp at all, I think.

yeah was level 1, have some great screenshots somewhere of my level 6 newbkiller chopping through 30+ level 2 - 10 newbies. every time a carebear server would crash RZ would get a mass wave of bored bluebies in the newbie zones.

so when a level 6 in shiny new velious graphic gear and skyfire sword/sarnak shield is standing in front of the gate an hour long war would ensue between my basically invincible newbkiller and the entire zone trying to score a kill and loot something unaware it was all no drop.

was a lot of fun
