    allow people to turn pvp on and off in towns so if guilds or individuals can pvp when they feel like it.
    allow free trade and random loot drops,makes it harder for the krono lords to corner the market on certon items.
    allow 2 boxing on each pc, so the people that 2 or 3 box are cathered for,who dosent love a porter as a box in early eq.
    allow boxing in god so people that hate god can lvl their boxes and have fun in omens of war.
    hopefully it will be a healthier server long run and might make it to live.
    regards and have fun in eq.

    I like where your head is at. Sadly we've been told the complex coding needed to get this done would likely stall the next EQ expansion and prolly cause Darkpaw to go bankrupt.

    It just cant be done.

    i am not into pvp but thats an awsome idea about the pvp on and off and most people would fight near cities not deep in dungeons,it would be awsome at lvl 1 people dueling in the starting yards.
    also i find people saying just no to be so negative i pity those fools(mister t quote).

    They just don't like paying attention when they hit auto attack in their pug group. You add an external factor like pvp and their brain's ram gets maxed out.

    no arena kill is the same as the rush you get when you win an OW random pvp encounter and get to take home a piece of gear + coin..

    Being able to enable and disable pvp borrows directly from what wow did. They could even go so far as to give incentives for having it enabled, faster XP, more faction gains, etc. Some incentive to pvp in general would potentially make it more attractive to people who haven't tried it before. I don't think of eq as a pvp game, and I think a lot of people are probably in the same boat. Historically it hasn't been an emphasis. Personally, my mind could be changed, but there would have to be a compelling reason to try it, and a way out short of quitting a server if I ended up not liking it.

    One PVP suggestion I would actually support is if they just gave you a ~20-25% exp bonus for having PVP flag on, and made it toggleable on like an hour timer and outside of combat. Almost every other game out there gives you some reward for the increased risk of being PVP flagged. Nobody wants to go risk a bunch of toxic griefers without any benefit to it.

    Lol. We have. ____ already at home, son.

    eq is just not a pvp game which is why every instance of pvp failed. There is 0 balance around pvp. There are a million pvp games out there go play them.
  14. HekkHekkHekk Augur

    I don't think you know what ganking is.
  15. Celatus Augur

    If you wanna gank and get ill gotten gains. Go play albion online. That's at least half the population and still its fun to play.
  16. HekkHekkHekk Augur

    Every instance of pvp did not fail. The developers simply let it go by the wayside and other mmos took over for the hardcore crowd.

    anytime you come up on someone doing something else thats just ganking. If you can't fight someone strait up with both parties prepared for pvp than you are not a pvper you are a ganker and a griefer.

    I mean you can live in whatever reality you want to but eq pvp was dead on arrival. I was there.
  19. HekkHekkHekk Augur

    Top down MMOrpgs aren't fun. The class system in Albion is more of a time sink if anything.

    This response is low IQ.

    There are tons of games where PVE is actually a challenge why don't we all just go play that instead of Vaniki? There is 0 balance around PVE.

    People like what they like.
