Not that any of this matters at ALL, but i'd be down for PvE transfers.

Why? More people to kill. Plus we'd have like that super glorious month where the confused bluebies would have no idea how to pvp and just run around dying over and over.

That'd be coo.

You're advocating removing xp loss because it encourages griefing, but want item loot? :/

Maybe I just haven't read up on the debate over pvp exp loss but it seems to be the #1 thing that people are complaining about. Why can't we just take it out? Seriously like tomorrow why can't the code just be changed on that one issue. I can't imagine it taking that long to do. Maybe I'm wrong?

Item loot isnt as much griefing as xp loss because it would work just like it works in eve online. "Fly" what you can afford to lose. You cant really grief someone thats naked and not losing xp.

You can grief people with their lost time, but cant take it further than that if they stick to being naked-ish.

In eve online, i wouldnt "wear" my most expensive, best ship when i fly solo. I would "wear" my best ship when im rolling out with a big crew with the sole purpose of pvping or large group pveing.

Alot of people would start to roam naked im sure, thats the downside, melees would get the shaft a bit. You would get a tremendous amount of blue tears coming out of PVEers like nihilum.

But one thing i can guaranfuckintee you (if xp loss is removed) is that pvp occurence will shoot through the roof 1000% and you will have zones where there is nonstop pvp, and population would pick up, im quite sure.

We would now have an economy for low and mid tier items. People who just started on the server could actually find buyers for the stuff they find while leveling.

The day that hypothetical patch would drop, i would instantly split my time between my main, and pvp alts. Right now i have 0 interest in rolling alts. Got quite enough of boring grind on my main already thank you very much.

With a bit more work, you could patch in event mobs that drop decent gear that is not lootable, mitigating the harshness of item loss. All of this would be classic.

Im not sure why the devs arent doin it. No time to mess around with red, that ridiculous concept of "this isnt COD" (Rallos was a high pvp occurence server. Devs might not like that, but dont try to pass pvp occurence on custom99 as classic), too much lost pride admitting the rules didnt work, i really dont know. As much as i can remember, they never actually argumented for the ruleset beside "lawl, this isnt COD" and try to answer many of the flaws players have pointed out.

LAWL naked u say? u stupid! (Enjoy your low pvp activity server, which im sure you do, Nihilum)
