Ideas on lockout instead of exp loss for pvp death?

Exp loss on PVP is dumb. Another player took the bind camp train from 60-48 thanks to this mechanic. Bind rushing is an imaginary issue on red99. If you're a caster you spawn with no mana and if you're a melee you have no gear.

wait are you for or against deleveling someone?

confused considering you were telling me how you'd like to bindcamp delevel another certain player last night

p.s. did not read the rest of this thread and i agree remove exp loss on death even though i am the alpha bard and do not eat pvp deaths ever

Yeah bards are really going to die and lose xp if they aren't completely retarded.

Experience loss from pvp isn't that significant, and it should remain. I do hate it when a mob gets a kill shot though due to low hp aggro.

If experience loss is done away with, replace it with yellow text and one of the following effects at random for a half hour:

1) Character is dazed from battle (drunk) and cannot see clearly
2) Character is exhausted from battle (overweight) and cannot run swiftly
3) Character is parched from battle (thirsty) and unable to drink to regenerate mana and stamina

isn't the point to encourage PVP not discourage it? why so many masochists here?

There is 0 reason to have exp loss at this point. It was different in classic, when experience was so easy and you didn't lose mana, but it literally serves no purpose that leaving a character low hp/oom now. On this server, all the butthurt from dying is worse than exp loss. Exp loss is just salt in the wound, especially while leveling 51-60.

Just take it out, its not rocket science. All these crazy suggestions and theories are unnecessary.
