When you go red, are you able to loot coin?
I played on Vallon Zek and i felt coin loot really added to the gameplay. There was no item loot which imo is good because people would just camp certain people to steal their gear and No Drop items couldn't be looted so high lvls with no drop raid gear would just pick off people to sell their armor... But where coin loot was involved, it gave it a reason to kill people and yet killing same person over and over did nothing... It forced people to use banks...
Without coin loot, killing someone just seems kind of like a dick thing to do because it puts them to bind and there is no reason.. People generally understood there was nothing personal about being killed because it was a chance to make money...
Another thing i liked about coin loot was when there is a twinked person killing off people and looting them all up, you get a chance to get it back.. I remember back in the day a Fungi twink was killing off newbs in Field of Bone and my friend and I (both poorly geared) managed to duo the twink.. when we looted, he was carrying 300p :-D
Kind of like a little reward... Most times you don't lose much or you don't gain much from a kill but it is a nice little reward for going through the difficulty of taking down a person. Hell, even lvl 1 decaying skeleton can drop coin, why not a person?
