That level 41 Cleric decides to heal one of the level 50's. His max attack-able range gets increased to level 50 (from 49). On the level 50's screens, the Cleric's name will now turn a different color (possibly orange) to indicate that they may attack that player but not be attacked (yet) by him.

If one of the level 50's runs over and attacks the 41 Cleric, the name color would update to red to indicate both players are attack-able to each other.

wait what, i dont need to /con or /who anymore? this is fukin brilliant! this is, by far, one of the best new features after eqlive pvp

No way Barn I think a 10 level max is better! Otherwise newbies will be EXPING and i cant even kill them when im all twinked out?! Whats the point of hitting level 50 if I cant utterly dominate people. Ideally there would be no level limit at all so that if I NEED to kill a lowbie crushbone group I totally can. Its really the only way to balance the game cuz if I cant kill crushbone groups at level 50 how can SPAWN DISPUTES on trainer hill get handled?!

+ - 40 levels!

+ / - 10 is a nice gap actually. What would you like, only even cons can affect each other?

No, that is why many players will leave toons low lvl. Just to ruin your months and months of crushbone fun.

Like I've been sayin, the bluebies just don't get pvp.

8plus or minus . no lvl range in high end zones

I would think something like SZ's ruleset would be better. I don't care about teams or whatnot, but just allowing for FFA killing with level assessed penalities. Like a level 50 can stomp on a level 10 but the level 10 loses nothing when he/she dies. If the same level 50 kills a level 46 however the level 46 takes whatever the penalty is, be it exp loss, coin loss, item loss, whatever. This prevents any out of level range exploiting and allows for all levels to contribute in any PvP battle. It also prevents low levels from talking shit without any fear of being killed. I think the ability to kill anyone at any level (I vote remove the stupid level 5 immunity crap as well) makes for the best PvP experience.

The only downside is that you will have people QQing about being "griefed" which is lame. If you have ever told anyone in your life that you were "griefed" you probably shouldn't play on a PvP server.
