There should never be exp. loss pvp, you got to keep it fun.There were many nights on RZ, I never left the gates of Qey for the pure fun of pvp.

If there is XP loss, why not provide XP gain from PvP kills? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

True. Xp loss makes people pvp less because some will avoid it so they don't loose xp. People will hide in dungeons and gate or camp out when a hit team zones in.

I personally like xp loss because I feel like it makes me killing you sweeter knowing your pve time spent grinding is wasted by me.

The real issue that people overlook in this issue is this:

Pvp xp loss only hurts those leveling up. Once you hit 50, it doesn't even matter.

So really, xp loss makes it harder for anyone to level here and favor people who get 50 first, which are usually the people that have no lives. It promotes those who hide in dungeons until max level and avoid pvp deaths until they don't matter especially if solo.

Nothing says pvp for the fun of pvp like not having an xp loss, but I guess this is about more then fun. To a lot of us it's about the challenge , to others prestige, and to others greifing.

It's hard to say why everyone wants to play, but if more people stay on the server because it's easier to level up or any reason, I am for supporting it.

LOL Sorrath..

Galacticus totally nailed it. The ruleset announced on homepage really just means anyone that doesn't grind 24/7 from release will be at a huge disadvantage. For every casual blue99'er checking out the server its going to be an easy decision to stay blue.

xp loss is a good thing, just as it was on sullon.

most folks clamoring for item loot never played past the 30s and dont remember how everybody was either naked or in no drop 99% of the time on RZ and risked nothing to match your resist gear etc.

xp loss made it so everybody risked the same, prevented bind rushing and helped keep folks blindly suicide rushing like a flailing gimp to a minimum.

no xp loss AND no loot would result in a watered down wow type pvp experience that would get stale quick.
