zone control not really big a deal when you don't have to loot your corpse and you're back in the action within 1 minute

controlling a zone won't mean anything when you can just 2box a group of wizards to manaburn every person in the zone

I get where you're coming from but I think that's actually going to kill the server faster than anything. People like being able to just jump in and PvP on an even playing field. That's the appeal of a battleground server like this. If you let people grind for a gear advantage, you'll have 5-10 hardcore people doing that and everyone else quitting when they realize they have to grind to stay competitive. Already have two servers people can grind to their heart's content on.

BBJC on the scene earlier.

Anyhow, can we get rid of the whole PvE thing? The best part about this server is that you can just log in and be pretty close to equal ground with people.

The way to give this server some longevity is to run some organized PvP matches. Get a ladder going for 1v1s, 2v2s and 3v3s. Rank people by record and class. Run organized battle royales every night. Ditch the Luclin era stuff. Scale all the gear/resists back to endgame Kunark/ mid-range Velious. Make resists more classic. Nix the idea for PvE. Add in other zones to battle in so people can spread out for honor duels/organized team fights.

With a little effort and organization it could be really cool and would probably attract dozens of players a night at least until the Teams launch. Without it will just turn into a handful of hardcores very quickly.
