Discussion: PvP Deaths (Item/Coin/XP Loot/Gain)

[Muaar]

PVP in oldworld EQ could be improved if caster classes couldnt cast spells without a magic item or something. But then the low levels would be ridiculous...

Naked mages are op but there's no easy way to make it so casters cant cast spells naked.

wait wait! I got it bros.
No boxing, No Lore, 1-Item Loot, No Primary & Secondary character loots (spare the melee clause of 1999), No banks, No Cheating, PLAY BALL!

after reading these replies, i can understand both arguments. My opinion would be to allow coin loot and no xp remove on death, unless its limited or reduced to almost nothing when killed by the same player again and again in a short time frame. Coin loot would encourage players to make frequent visits to the bank :P

This sounds like a good solution.

pro item loot paladin right here baby

[Silikten]

Item loot is a very bad idea. It should only be coin loot.

[Muaar]

pod should turn people item loot active on this server

then those who wish to item loot can have fun raging each other without harming the poor carebears

Any root or snare will land on a naked caster..then you can kill him. If he is wearing his smr its gunna be a little tougher but you might steal his robe. it works both ways. Casters are generally more powerful but a vigilant melee isn't going t to lose his important gear. You gotta be careful that's all there is to it.

When your risking your neck you wear banded. With trusted group in empty zone..do what you want. Its not a big deal.

When item loot is in the game, only newbies won't use the /who in their zone and every zone connected. The constant situation awareness, due to the potential loss of gear, is what drives immersion.

WTF Who plays a video game to want to be aware of people surrounding them? I just want to sit down and relax and then feel badass when I kill lowbies. Last thing I want to do is get any cool item taken from me when I go AFK or something. Its just better when u dont have to worry about anything and its more like a blue server.

so NO ITEM LOOT
