Default PvP server even more not classic

Some of us in IF and few buddies in Scary bad guys put the time in to farm enough red wands to have 4-6 wands. With the wands you could spam down guards and the plat they dropped was enough to recharge all the wands. GM's got wind of it and nerfed it today with the server restart today

Why nerf stuff that was classic for a very long time. Just because my friend went from 24-28 in a few hours in one day doesnt mean classic mechanics should be altered/ nerfed.

Anyways w/e rant off will see if i continue playing after thanksgiving

They try to fix obvious "exploits" (arguable term) for overall server health, not to personally fuck you over.

Good thing they nerfed this after Lovely fought tooth and nail during the beta to not nerf wand recharges and they did nothing then he abused the fuck out of it to hit 30 already.

Of course I saw Kringe and other do-gooders at the camp today as well.

People really shouldn't get to abuse this to level 30 and then now its nerfed for the rest of us. Fuck that shit.

Yeah, this is the only problem I have with it. GMs have essentially awarded people doing something they didn't like them doing... wtf? Either keep it in so everyone can do it, or delevel the people who did do it, this middle of the road shit is botched GMing.

Don't widen the gap.

Allow others to use this if it is indeed "fair" and not punishable.

I mean, I suppose you can argue its not "classic" to nerf something like this. What would be more classic is to wipe your memory. Back in the day no one really knew about tricks like this and if they did SoE would've nerfed them too. Having a classic feel means everyone is on fair ground and its a fun environment. Nerfs to maintain that, IE redwood wands, Ivandyrs hoops, are a good thing. Enjoy the server and group and level and stop trying to find ways to get around it. Its pvp its supposed to be fun and hard to level.
