Softcore what that really means is that you spend a lot of time slaughtering people mercilessly and being slaughtered mercilessly. It just isn't fun at either end of the 8 level pvp range. I feel half obligated to kill anyone lower level than me and in my PVP range, but when they are level 12 and I am level 20 it just isn't fun. A tighter range means everyone actually gets to fight, rather than just get killed or be a killer. It means fights happen.

A lot of time? No, not in most character's lives. Fights will still happen, as the general exp spots will be populated by people around your level. In my experience, coming across someone 8 levels above or below you is something that tends to happen more when you're exploring, or running to/from bank or exp spot.

I really don't understand why this is such a big deal for some people. It's understandable in CB, which is the place to go get griefed, but once you hit level 20 it's honestly not that big of a deal. Why are you all so afraid of dying?

some of the best xp spots post 35 are used from the mid 30s to mid 40s, either keep the 8 level range or make it so the lower range only applies sub 30 imo.

I think 5-6 range is a good compromise.

VZ and TZ were both 8 levels, and with four teams and rampant crossteaming it was pretty much FFA.

Range of +/-4 levels, just like the original RZ.

I ask that a new poll be created, one with specific level range choices (4,6, and 8 should suffice).

+/-4 like RZ gets my vote, since I'm assuming this server won't have a Sullon Zek ruleset?

Has anyone addressed the issue of deleveling? RZ for a long time had a problem with high levels deleveling to make themselves practically gods. I distinctly remember a trio of deleveled trolls - Moe, Larry, and Curly - who'd terrorize Nektulos.
