Item loot could work but not with classic rule sets

EQ pvp with item loot could be fun, but it would require some custom rules. What do you guys think about these rules:

1) No placeholders and increased drop rate for rare items.
2) Minimum equip level: if you don't meet it, you're FFA to all levels.
3) If you die, you have full loot rights to whoever killed you (up to 1 item, bagged or not) with No time limit - you can't camp it out.

EQ doesn't foster a good pvp + item loot atmosphere because of the rarity of certain crucial items. I know it's not classic, but if this fact were mitigated, fun could be had for all.

Is this even fucking EQ at this point?
