I've made this point before but no one listens.

The pvp range is far too high. It should be 4 across the boards like RZ.

Main point: I don't want to waste my fucking time fighting a level 42, I want to be fighting and competing w/ ppl with similar gear levels spells abilities. Who fucking cares about a level 42 piece of shit. Congrats if someone logs in where I'm sitting low health and kills me, maybe that will happen one time in a million. What is going to happen is every level 50 is going to stomp the shit out of low 40s for no good reason other than they are higher level etc. No one listens, no one w/ common sense. People like Lovely will post about "lol i'z wantz more pvppz" but should people like that ever get to 50 (prob wont), they want ppl around who are a lot lower so they can actually get a kill and not stomped by everyone else.

Add xp loss to that and were in for some epic tears. Good for a couple of months and some chuckles, as for server longevity...

This guy has NO idea what he is talking about.

Just stay blue and keep your ignorant theory of PVP to yourself.

+/-4 is a good range to allow for competitive PvP. Anything higher than that just means higher level people can kill lower level people with no chance of losing.

If you are truly a PvP player and consider yourself red, then you know that all of the good PvP happens at level 50 and is against level 50 players. People who ask for no level range or a level range of 8+ are pussies who do not like competition.

Anyone who wants +/- 4 levels at max level is wrong.

LOL at me being a pussy for wanting MORE PVP. So when we are both 50 and I find you power leveling a 43, Im a pussy for wanting to be in range to BOTH of you? Wanting more people to fight and have more total competition makes someone a pussy?

Yall want +/- 4 cause your all scared.

I know exactly what I'm talking about.

The reason a lot of people want higher level ranges is partly because they want to be able to grief a farther reach, and partly because they don't like low level trainers etc. However there is a reason sony made the entrance level to the planes 46. It's because the level range on pvp servers was 4 levels, that made it so that anyone entering planes was pvpable.

An arguement can be made that 4+/- level range is classic, I believe sullon was the only exception to this and was created much later on anyways. +/- 4 levels is the best you can get because once you are 24, you cannot be pvped by a person a full spell level ahead of you until you advance. Just makes sense all around to be 4 levels.

Also with the system they have in place now, out of range healers won't be as possible because if they heal a person they get bumped up. I think that's how it works?
