The reason i like PvP is not because of any sort of grind or time investment requirement.


I like it because its based purely on skill.


once you start requiring PvE elements to become proficient at PvP you pretty much ruin the idea.


If there was a minimal PvE requirement but hefty losses for getting pwnt in PvP .. (say full loot) then it might make sense.


other wise it just boils down to who has the most disposable free time to put into grinding to max level and keeping others down.


Not really an ideal situation unless you got a lot of disposable free time.

(there are probably awesome pvp'ers out there who don't have hundreds of hours to grind up is what i'm saying i guess)

I didn't read shit. If I repeat something, oh well.

1. People don't give a flying fuck about wasting numerous hours KILLING LIONS TIGERS AND BEARS. This game is old. EQ Emu PvP servers don't hold brand new EQ players. The fun really starts at max level when you can join a guild and contest over raid spawns. Anything before that is just a time sink which I'm sure most don't care to participate in.

2. It will 100% bring back bodies, or bring in new bodies. Be it low levels that couldn't cut it (aka - they don't give a shit about wasting months doing mindless grinds), level 50's that have lost interest in the decaying server, or people that had a clue and haven't joined yet.

3. It doesn't hurt shit. No one is going to quit because they leveled to 50 faster than they remembered on live. I find it completey retarded the XP has remained this STUPID because of a classic feel. Tell me, what exactly is classic here? Lol.

4. The server won't die as fast.

5. More? Nope, just do it.

thats the big thing that hurt pvp red imo


they treated it as a PvE game with PvP rules


when people PvP they don't want to kill five thousand decaying skeletons

they just want to fight



it's a guilty pleasure if you will... its not about the long term.. its about instant gratification


FU NOOB >>:U etc.

Instant characters and very high exp rates leads to more cheating/hacking due to the fact you can have a new max character very quickly.

Which therefore more makes the server gay.

Voted no, prefer to keep it as it is.

However, if rates were to change, id like the hybrid punishment to go, and for an increase only be for 1-34 so you can group with your lvl 50 buddies.

I wish there was a vote with a modified exp increase, from levels 1 -30. It may bring people back that couldn't keep up, and it may attract new people. It may also encourage alts to level with the new people.

Perhaps further increase the exp bonus for certain zones, dungeons, etc. That should help draw people to the same areas, find groups, make friends, and encourage pvp.

I have the most fun right now in a full group, with a constant flow of exp, with the occasion struggle to keep the spawn. I'm able to do this almost every night. It would suck if all of a sudden I felt compelled to solo namedx spawn in a deserted zone for faster exp, like wizards/druids etc. Good exp, sure. Fun for how long?
That's mindless killing, groups are rarely mindless, they tend to be more challenging.
