True. But you could pacify the Kelethin, Freeport, Neriak etc. bank areas (personally I think you should be safe in the whole town area, but I guess the hardcore PvPers want to gank people within towns as well). People could trade in these areas.

@Rushmore: How did they handle this problem on the Altergate custom box? This seems to be the most appealing item loot rule to me and a few others.

Rogean has already stated Level 1's in cities are safe to PVP. So trading in cities on level 1 mules is safe bros. Level 1's outside the city are open to PVP!
YES PVP is open starting at level 1.

Prahadigm: On Altergate if you died anything un-equipped that wasn't no drop was up for grabs. Most times you at least got something like a pumice which was cool. It was team base though. One time someone on the good side had camped the best weapon in the game on a shaman and forgot to bank it. He went out pvping and got ganked. The guy looted his sword and equipped it right away. =D

Again, I am against any form of pvp loot but the dev's are leaning towards it pretty hard pals. This is the best compromise. I would like to see some system implemented where you can buy your way to making an item no drop (maybe a ton of pp) or something protected like 2 slots like Lasher said. An Sk will 2H all the time where as a War is going to switch between 2h and 1h's.

Or even a manastone .... EEK!
Guess you will have to equip the manastone in the primary hand!?!?

I think there are some good compromises for every situation. We just need to be vocal and work together pals to work them out.
