Why no item loot? Wasn't it classic (Rallos?)

This server should have never left beta with anything but the most classic of RZ rules.

can't just flip a switch and turn on item loot just like you can't flip a switch and change pvp level range at this stage of the game
wipe
reroll with new rules
thrive

Yeah bag your stuff leads to 0 people on the server. No one plays melees. Everyone is a naked druid.

It's been tried before on three servers and Verant took it off for a reason, it simply doesn't work in a game like Everquest. The risk:reward is all blown out of whack and no one plays.

I love item loot, it makes the game so much more fun. Why would anyone run around on a naked toon? when the point is to give your self the best chance to win a fight.

What are people doing with the items they loot from other players? just putting them in the bank to look at?

Nah not really. With the griefers on this server, you would see epic twinks in no drop gear or epic fungi and dragon haste twinks with a pocket oor druid healer who will port out at the sign of trouble.

This server has a high percentage of shit bags and item loot is just another form of griefing.

Sweet. Tell me how fun it is to play a melee without any weapons.

Time it takes to get an epic weapon > time it takes to die in pvp and have it looted.

Can't loot hand items, that's the way it was on RZ

Doesn't take away the OOR healer/porter factor.

Dude, nothings perfect, it's more fun, that's all I know.

rz thrived for years with item loot shrug, less twinks wearing droppable items and more equal pvp
