There's absolutely no incentive to pvp here, you win, you get nothing, you lose you lose exp WTF, this box only promotes pve, you get lvl's and you get gear form PVE! and sorry there is already an entire server devoted for that.

You actually said this server has too much pvp LMFAO!

NEWSFLASH!

IT'S A PVP SERVER THATS THE POINT OF BEING HERE NOT TO FARM SEBS ALL DAY, PLS GO TO THE SERVER YOU BELONG ON AND STOP SHITTING UP THE FORUMS WITH YOUR NONSENSE!

As far as people 'farming' seb or other kunark 50+ exp zones, Most of them are still exping up and getting loot is a benefit. Not everyone got to hit 60 right off the bat before the exp bonus was reduced and then put back in partially.

Blue is dumb, Even if you wanted to play solely for PVE its retarded. Granted I have only spent a little time on blue playing friends chars, Just the impression I got was "holy shit ide rather play on red with 100 people then blue". EC tunnel alone is redic, People sell names for plat. I saw someone named Edward and Alice Cullen with matching gear.. level 1-10s with fungi/fingerbones/CoF full rubicite everything. What do they do? Sit around all day in EC tunnel and show off/sell stuff big ticket items/accounts and flip flop from class to class. And they almost all have a fondness for anything 'unique' such as guise or firepot chars. Or like that 60 epic vp guise fp shaman thats going for an insane amount of plat.

I hear you can't even get dragon kills or anything unless you manage to get into the top guild since theres a few dozen guilds that knock out everything and it all comes down to some rules like whoever zoned in first or whatever. Kill boss and end up getting loot taken away and given to a guild who just sat there on their thumbs because 'they' had the claim first. That just doesn't cut it, I would rather steamroll over said guild then sit around debating loot.

Ya. So there will be a lot of real pros hunting twinks. Lots of battle.

Listen to what you just said... pros hunting twinks. How the fuck is THIS scenario going to encourage NEW players to join the server?

Do you not understand how it is now?

Right now there are twinks and they kill lowbies. Lowbies lose EXP, and get kicked out of their favorite EXP zone.

With item loot, there will be twinks (still). At the same time, there will be more guys that want to make twinks so they can kill the other twinks and take their gear.

So there will be a reason for twinks to fight one another.

At the same time, there is a reason for twinks to get lowbie non twinks to help them gank up an opposing twink for the potential of good loot.

If said twink is a coward he will flee. If he is a coward he will strip his gear off and be weak and die and everyone will post videos of him becoming more naked as he autoruns and gets naked and dies.

So to recap

At Present: No reason to PVP. Must PVE to get to high level to get good items. PVP risks losing EXP..PVP reward = nothing.

With Item loot: Reason to PVP is you can get good loot from jerk PKer. Reason to be honest with your pals you are grinding with is that they won't backstab you and you can stick together to defeat PK twink to get good gear. Risk losing some piece of shit level 1-50 attainable gear in PVP. No EXP loss.

I'd rather lose a piece of my shitty banded than 1hr of EXP. And the fact that there is an actual reason to PVP (get good loot from dickwad bluebie twink) .. its perfect.

Only losers are level 60's AFKing with fungi tunic on..and when guys lose fungi its hilarious and definitely good for server growth.

Seriously. As a lowbie non twink, do you remember having any gear AT ALL that mattered to you?

Casters need no gear.
Melees can get banded for 100pp a set

Level 1-50+ nothing to worry about. You just need to be careful when you are fully PVE geared for mana or whatever and grinding EXP.

It just means PKers have to actually risk something to go slaughter noobs..and noobs have a reason to fight back..a real reason to get to level 16 to kill the level 12 PK, or to level 24 to kill the level 20 PK. Its sweet.
