Blue guy wants to fearlessly raid for quadruple digit hours with no item loss risk (gotta protect those pixels) and fearlessly stomp on level ones in 'pvp', while calling others dumb as hell.

Yeap. Thanks for clarifying red guy.

Actually I have no interest in griefing folks. I always thought it was great when level 60s in WoW would come help lowbies who were getting griefed by high levels from the opposite faction. It's good way to integrate the high level players with the low level players rather than the population being split between level ranges.

You're right though. Adding item loot to a game that has miserable drop/spawn rates, wildly expensive merchant prices and crafting systems that are a joke is a really good idea.

Play Darkfall brah. Full item loot.

As someone who ganked enough gear to obtain a full suit of items from item loot, i got to say i don't think it'd go over well. Most of the time people just run around naked, a far better solution is just to keep yt and have everyone know when they die pvp

The problem without item loot is that there is no incentive to pvp at low levels or to try to kill twinks. Maximum incentive to rush to 60..it sucks.

With item loot you just run with whatever junk gear that is level appropriate, or risk your twink studf. Being in level appropriate gear aint bad. On rallos I just used full banded basically for my rangers full career. I had to buy a coupe extra bps iver time but it was fine.

And if your a twink who cares what happens to your gear. No one will ever hunt you for level appropriate gear except at level 60. It really causes no problems for the casual player who loves questing. It hurta level 60s who want to pharm and hold their riches and only pvp when their entire guild is online.

I pvp at low levels and kill twinks, but if your vision of low lv pvp is whole groups of noobs ganging up on the fungi twink and taking them down that's not going to happen, and if those newbs ever did do that and kill the twink because they wanted fungi, they'd probably kill the rest of the people in zone also.

Also, item loot makes people bloodthirsty, and if you think MM is bad now just imagine slivers bringing a few lv 60 oors to keep him up while he mows down noobs and takes their shit, this server is far smaller then rz and thats what would happen. Its not that he'd need much of the loot he'd get but its be more the extra grief oppurtunity

What people think low level pvp with item loot will be:
A merry band of adventures rally together and defeat a fungus wearing twink and bask in the glory of pixels.

What will really happen:
Fungus twink wrecks group and sells their bronze bullshit to the vendor followed by them ragequitting the server.
