Returning player thoughts on PVP

[Gustoo]

Welcome to server. FFA allows you to establish who is trustworthy on your own. There is no group to "otherwise" and kill without rationality coming into play. You need to think about your actions and your attitude can determine whether or not the people you kill will become your friends later on.

Being FFA maximised the focus on the individual. In your leveling you really need to communicate with the people around you and if someone blatantly betrays you, it will be remembered by you and the people that you regularly group with.

I have personally never been betrayed by a group member here. Most of the time people are happy to get into a decent group and want to take it as far as it will go.

Teams is a fun idea at the surface but really doesn't make for a good community in the long run. This is especially true for everquest where no team design is very well balanced geographically, racially or religiously. Teams even fall apart on vastly newer and more sophisticated games that spent a lot of time focused on their development.

Unfortunately ffa is really the best solution to eq PvP.
