Was xp loss in pvp a good idea?

Exp loss just means more grinding. It's a bad idea and discourages pvp.

discourages bind rushing you'd have to die like 10 times for it to be noticeable that you lost any xp

If the exp loss is negligible then it is not a deterrent to bind rushing. Bind rushing in general is overblown; as the server matures it becomes obvious who is an infamous bind rusher, they're perpetually corpse camped. As people become better geared, naked casters become laughable in pvp.

No resist/hp gear? How ever will I deal with this person!

I like it and as has been said the xp loss from pvp is equal to about 1.5 blue mobs of xp.

It doesnt really matter to me if its classic or not, what matters to me is that the majority of players on this server seem to not want nor enjoy long drawn out fights for spots which is classic Rallos and fun (to me).

This reply was mostly to ask you if you were morning wood from Rallos? First time i lol'd at a player name evading filter.

exp loss is stupid. my friends and I have already essentially quit playing because of the exp grind being unreasonable for people who work a 9-5 because as we had hit 5 people where hitting 30. I can't imagine making the grind that much slower would have enticed us to stay.

This is part of what is making me quit also. That the top plateau of population was reached when we were hitting 350 at peak.

Nobody but the most rare of masochist will deal with the pve grind PLUS losing exp vs twinks against which he has barely any chance to win over. Thats what any new blood to the server will have to deal soon, if not now.

So not only is the lack of pvp is making it suck for me, its knowing that unless the ruleset changes, this is the best that its going to get.

I doubt it will change, so im quitting while im ahead and didnt invest alot of time in a server im not going to enjoy in the short and long run.

Why bother racing to 50 when i know most people dont enjoy pvp (whatever the fuck they say) and they will be the core pop staying for the long run and can be expected to flee at the first death on my alt?

tbo a twink hybrid (as we are seeing now) is still 1000x easier than a level 4 mage, if ya couldnt take the lvl 4 mages at beginning then you sure as fuck cant take the twink hybrids

hey no worries some of us will be making the anti-twinks.
