Discussion: PvP Deaths (Item/Coin/XP Loot/Gain)

[Mrcurtloco]

pvp exp loss bad for corpse camping
pvp coin loot doesnt matter either way is fine
pvp item loot doesnt work, and for everyone that doesnt understand why the people from vztz are telling you this is because its been tested, more then once,... doesnt work pop cut in half or less eveytime.

YT is fine does nothing really bad for the server
Leaderboards promote exploiting and griefing, fine if you want it in im ok with that. Is it good for the server....no

server wide ooc this is really a moot point
it takes about 2.5 seconds for a gm to make a "serverwide ooc channel"
and have it defaulted on* when you start. if you dont like it turn it off and just use normal zone ooc, if you do keep it on.


oh yeah sup peoples!

Make it illegal because just like Item loot it will cut the server pop by half or more

I'd just like to vote "no" on PvP exp loss, especially if exp rate is set to classic.

If the exp rate had a boost, maybe.

YT is a failing idea. It's stupid, does nothing but give people an excuse to E-peen stroke and you will never know the circumstances for the kill. Anyone can run up, smash a player with 2% life and get yellow text after they got done with a hard PvE fight.

Damn son, you boss!

Rallos Zek/ Vallon Zek / Tallon Zek did great without yellow text. I challenge you to show me on Rallos Zek any time someone got yellow text. That's because it wasn't implemented. Don't confuse your 8.0 box rehash with rallos zek because it's not. Your 8.0 boxxes that reset everytime someone got better gear then you so you spammed the forums for a server reset.

Furthermore, teams is a brilliant idea because as was said below, FFA SERVERS DO NOT PROMOTE COMMUNITY PLAY. It promotes distrusting absolutely every player around you and treating them as hostile until you saw your guilds tag above their head.

I feel if players want a FFA server there are multitudes of other servers giving FFA for them to go to. Make this server different, put in PvP but make it PvP Teams in some way.

The majority of the fanboys who played those fail boxxes that reset 5+ times want this FFA, and they won't stick around for it. You see how long their attention stayed on the servers that reset constantly and you want to make THIS a PvP server? Come on man, don't revive a dead horse just so we can beat it again.

PVP teams in FFA are divided between mean people and nice people its easy to make friends and geta group and stick with them. Guild tags help. It really forces a true community rather than haphazardly designated teams.

[Cfullard]

Rallos Zek had no community except for PvP right up to the point where Sony instituted Item loot on the server (which effectively turned it into a carebear server). Do I want Item loot? No, I think it caused too much griefing.

Don't confuse griefing with PVP. Griefing isn't true PvP, it's lame tactics by lame players trying to work the game to get kills.

Also, I don't know how you can say the teams were haphazard.

You knew what team you were joining depending on your race / class on Vallon Zek, there were even places you could read about that. If you don't want to be on a certain team, go to another. Re-roll, not too hard a choice with that.

What the hell you talking about???You would get more griefing with leader board and exp death bonuses..Let me go greif this guy with leather on..STFU dumbass lol

[Nirgon]

The phrase "prevent griefing" is still funny to me
