Ideas on lockout instead of exp loss for pvp death?

1500$

I'd support this concept, as long as it wasn't too long of a duration. 1-2 hours would be way to much, but 20-30 minutes is doable.

I dont think the 3% xp death is really a big deal, but that's as a caster who has tons of ways to stay alive in PvP.

For the melee's getting first shot rooted with 120+ mr, it's definitely a bigger issue.

Yes but that amount of time would cause more issues than exp loss. If I wanted to cockblock Azrael from raiding, I would just hunt down their tanks or healers, PK them, raids canceled.

sorry I LoLed

I wholeheartedly support this over xp loss, anything that keeps me from wasting my fucking life killing mindless drones, if i get banned 1 day its fine, i can do other shit and come back, this would probably be a good thing for many of the neckbeards on here, imagine getting a 1 day vacation for free guys, shit's not classic but hey, neither is having a real life on the side while playing eq

The truth is funny. The fact that you guys would probably quit, is not.

I agree with Smedy. Instead of the lockout why not make it to where if you take a pvp death your character respawns unable to pvp (aka "blue" tagged) for x amount time. Basically you can keep playing EQ pve instead of waiting for 1-2 hours or whatever it is. Then after the 1-2 hours you turn red again. That way you can go back and get ur corpse and shit without worrying about a corpse camp / bind cap, etc.

This would not work because you would either be able to buff PvP enabled players or unable to buff anyone because you died PvP. Porting someone to a safezone with rez effects would be the easiest solution.

This would also save people like Party, who go from lvl 59-51 in 2 hours because he forgot to log out.

yea im thinking of the majority of people here would probably quit for the rest of the day if they had to wait 2 hours, lol...that's a long ass time; i know how hardcore nihilum members are, that would piss them off
