Its hard for me to understand how everyone feels just from this forum. So few posters considering how many players we expect.

Item loot made it more fun for me. I wonder how many RZ guys wished there was no item loot though?

I think most posters are VZ/TZ/SZ guys that never played item loot and want it their old way.

Why would people that dont want to fight come to pvp? I just liked more risk/more reward. Fighting naked casters all day is just the same as fighting geared casters if you cant loot the geared ones and you can loot the naked ones..except the naked ones are easier to kill.

Its alright guys.

There are tons of P99 players, IMO, that would come play at least part time on Red99 if there was no item loot. It's the straw that breaks their will to "come pvp". Remove item loot and the Red99 population picks up, IMO. Many won't even try beyond level 10 if there's item loot, or even a rumor of item loot. UO'ers back in the day said "what?? I get ONE item? Why cant i have ALL of their stuff??" It's all relative

Only way item loot works is if they comb the loot tables and add more NODROP tags.

Otherwise it's way way too imbalanced and fucks melees in the ass (when they're already screwed because of how classic is).


If players could feasibly gear MOST (not all) of their slots with decent no drop items, it would work. The problem is when some melee class is wearing all of his shit (because he has to, to stand a chance), and then his Breastplate of Awesome which he spent 8 hours farming for is taken by a naked caster.

In classic, monk was by far the least gear dependent melee class. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]. Roll a warrior and i'll give you the props [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
