This means that if you killed a melee you could loot his equipped FBSS or Skull-Shaped Barbute, but not his weapons or his no-drop planar armor. If you killed a caster you could loot his robe, but not his Stein of Moggok, etc...

Item loot basically incentivizes everyone to wear as much no-drop gear as possible, even if the stats are shittier than droppable items. It also means casters are much more powerful since they are less item-dependent than melees.

FV rules yes...full item loot no...


1 item looted / 24 hours. Coin loot if their item loot is still on cooldown.

Every twink/pker would kill themselves by boxing or by a friend before pvping.

Either no item loot, or no no-drops and bags lootable.

Otherwise pvp yet again turns into something somewhat stupid, i.e. furiously clicking your items into your bags before you die.

i actually like the ear or token loot vs actual item loot, although snatching a AoN off someone is RnF worthy

Item loot doesn't work and obstructs pvp. Period. The best PvP server was Sullon Zek hands down and it had no item loot, only plat.

As someone who never played EQ pvp, I would not roll on a server with item loot.

I played Lineage which had item loot, and I quit at lvl 20 bc of it.

And that right there is why I wouldn't mind item looting. Lineage 2 item loss risk made the game so much more exciting, and god it was awesome when you trained someone and they dropped their 13 mil eminence bow. Thanks Snowpanther <3
