let's get real about item loot

You'll also care more about making sworn enemies who will drop whatever it is, no matter what they are doing, to come after you in an item loot scenario too, trust me on that.

When red opened, the River Vale / Freeport area was a total shit show. Not that I dislike that kind of thing, but you have to realize, there was no fear in attacking anyone or making an enemy. Here, you will care a lot more about pissing everyone off when the lynch mob comes for your notorious ass.

I PvPed wiz/enc in the early days with Kerrygetz and let me tell you, there was no fucking around to be hard for us in highkeep when the alarms were sounded. We had to pick our fights because of our reputation.

There's more factors in play than "lose a cloak of flames and quit" with item loot.
