Well, one way that is fixed on RoZ are lockouts when you die in PvP and level restrictions of 30 in zones that make sense like Sol B. You can also say taking out training is short sited because it is a huge benefit to zergs and then people get bored and quit. Making rules where people get banned for doing something you can do in the game is really pathetic. If you can't handle training then hard code a fix for it.

If you make it just a rule then it will still happen. Some people get away with it because you are relying on unpaid workers to be fair when sometimes they just like certain players over others.

You can bribe every P99 GM here with nudes to get the other guild banned.

Which is why the phrase "time to grind up some more level 30 clerics" isn't uncommon. saying training should be permissible because it is possible is like some sort of SICK "what if the child consents" libertarian argument. Some things just shouldn't be allowed even if they can technically happen for the population health and health of the population. Training isn't an equalizer for a "resistance" guild versus a zerg, the zerg by definition has more people and as people get frustrated from training and log at relatively equal rates the zerg still has more people to contest the mob, but is that really what you want high end competition to devolve into, who can sustain the most hours of training?

In addition to the name of the thread, we are ready for a new server. I am especially, so I can create a new mage, or enchanter to roleplay with and wreck people! On RoZ, whenever I zoned into a zone & shouted "The King Has Sent!" People knew to start prepping cause I was coming for their head! Lol , after the yellow text went out that I killed their ass I would /ooc "For Ak'anon!" " The king will be pleased!" Or if I got jumped or had to flee a fight I would say "Guards! Notify the king, quick! Tell the merchants! This won't go unheard!" "I'LL HAVE YOUR HEAD" Lol good times.

Try world of warcraft. Their pvp is much better. Hope this helps.

I've seen this argument a lot. "Play WoW" or "Play Call of Duty", usually coupled with a statement that Everquest PVP is bad or Everquest is not a "PVP game" (usually by those that either never tried EQ PVP or got griefed off of Rallos Zek in April of 1999).

It's such an NPC mindset. It makes as much sense as me saying Blue/Green players, try Skyrim. You can kill Dragons with better combat without FTE races and keep all the loot yourself.

It isn't a matter of what is the better PVP game. We love Everquest as much as, if not more than, the "blue" playerbase, we just enjoy it with the added player interaction and competitive component of PVP. We love the WORLD of Everquest, the PVE, raiding, and gearing elements included, we just like it with PVP. We don't want to sit in a line in an MMORPG. To me and many others once you've given EQ in a PVP setting it's fair shake there is no going back.

EQ PvP is pretty fun, just super slow compared to something like Wow or Warhammer online. The key is to modernise it a little and give it a little QOL touches. Devs here made the contrary, they made the game even worse for PVP. Having to sit down and med between each fights, going back to your body is punishment enough.

3 characters on red above 50. Yes, I've played EQ PvP...

Take your 4-chan/alt-reich vernacular and fuck off back to your dead pvp server.

You all have ruined your own lands. Now live in them.
