I'm curious what the people who played at a high level with item loot really feel about it. I never got into the PvP side of EQ back on live, the closest being a toon I made on RZ to mess around with while The Tribunal was down. The highest I made it was level 12, but even up until that point every encountered pretty much consisted of people bagging like their working at Safeway or smashing that gate hotkey. A few times my buddy and I really thought we had someone pinned down in Kelethin, but they'd always jump over the edge and fall to their death rather than lose a piece of banded.
In summary: Full-on item loot lead to an incredibly boring PvP experience even when you did it for a few nights at a completely lowbie level. I can't imagine what it was like when it started to count. Just curious if you guys who actually played it out began to see a change, or if it was always lame.
