Leave behind your preconceived notions of what zones are good to xp in before moving here from blue if you wish to avoid pvp like this. If you don't care about avoiding one-sided pvp, then as suggested above try to bring it to OOC to see if anyone else is willing to help.

Being better-prepared for a fight certainly can't hurt either. Stock up on a few pumices if you can and keep dispel memmed. There'll be times where it won't make a difference if someone is staying on top of insta-click junk buffs. But if not, stripping buffs can reduce total hp, damage mitigation, resists, run speed and in turn wastes the OOR healers mana, which is leaps more effective than wasting mana on another resisted nuke or swinging through damage shields.

Even if you don't win, which is almost always inevitable in situations like this, at least you gave pvp a fair chance. Next time, I'd suggest a "hey, good fight" to the winner followed by asking if they minded letting you guys continue to xp. If they don't, call LNS and move to a new zone. Coming to the forums is about the last thing you'll ever want to resort to.

P.S. Send Cannabis a tell in-game if you see me online and I'll stop by to hand out druid buffs.

I know you understand this and are just being defensive, but raiding is the one of the most social things you can do in EQ (also GM events, etc). Put a huge group of players together who have to interact correctly in order to succeed.

"Anti-social: contrary to the laws and customs of society; devoid of or antagonistic to sociable instincts or practices."

So 1-2 players griefing a group of people to the point of them breaking up and logging is anti-social.

Sorry to use facts on you. But this thread isn't about the definition of anti-social behavior. Its about dealing with the dicks displaying it.

so you guys want fair fights or ban then? server is cleaned up and this does not look excessive. i will tell you i got a kill on a high elf mage lvl 5 and on a human sk lvl 3 both times i have gotten rage tells. one guy wanted my family dead for a lvl 3 pvp death. bluebirds need to relax too it goes both ways and in the end its just a game.

Not anti-social at all. Using your "logic" you killing something breaks up another raid. Ergo that larger group is fragmented and doing their own things. Just like what happened here in PvP

Dont be a fucking retard.

And you're the one who brought up anti-social bullshit and come back to blue.

are you allowed to do this with higher level characters? I dont know but this really turns me off as a new player. I'm all for pvp but this was just dumb.

Please send a tell to me in game on Rexx and I will come and keep oor 60 healers busy or bring my 34 Druid to oor you while you pvp twinks and griefers.

People actively griefing new players baffles me, you are basically spitting in the GMs face after the recent work they just put in to help re kick start this server

100% Serious. This can basically be compared to overfishing / overhunting / overfarming etc. If you guys all grief everyone off with overly aggressive pvp be it with super twinks, OOR healers, SK HT bots, all you are doing is ensuring these young antelope will never grow up to produce more antelope. You're keeping the pop artificially down and therefore ultimately creating less pvp to be had. Someone who is griefed @ say level 15 in Unrest is much more likely to say fuck this server and quit than someone who is already in his 50's and has built friendships and invested a significant amount of time into his toon. The true PVP'ers here should be bending over backwards to help the new players if they really cared about a vibrant PVP scene @ the end game.

And for all the "well they can just call LNS!", how many people @ level 15 in Unrest, who may not have even been able to secure a bind nearby, are really going to care enough to do so after getting destroyed by fungi twinks and 60 druids when they can just /camp and log on to blue again? There's no other motivation behind this behavior other than to destroy the pop of this server. That type of behavior needs to be punished.
