Anyone who wants +/- 4 levels at max level is wrong.




LOL at me being a pussy for wanting MORE PVP. So when we are both 50 and I find you power leveling a 43, Im a pussy for wanting to be in range to BOTH of you? Wanting more people to fight and have more total competition makes someone a pussy?

Yall want +/- 4 cause your all scared.

I know exactly what I'm talking about.

The reason a lot of people want higher level ranges is partly because they want to be able to grief a farther reach, and partly because they don't like low level trainers etc. However there is a reason sony made the entrance level to the planes 46. It's because the level range on pvp servers was 4 levels, that made it so that anyone entering planes was pvpable.

An arguement can be made that 4+/- level range is classic, I believe sullon was the only exception to this and was created much later on anyways. +/- 4 levels is the best you can get because once you are 24, you cannot be pvped by a person a full spell level ahead of you until you advance. Just makes sense all around to be 4 levels.

Also with the system they have in place now, out of range healers won't be as possible because if they heal a person they get bumped up. I think that's how it works?

+/-4 is a good range to allow for competitive PvP. Anything higher than that just means higher level people can kill lower level people with no chance of losing.

If you are truly a PvP player and consider yourself red, then you know that all of the good PvP happens at level 50 and is against level 50 players. People who ask for no level range or a level range of 8+ are pussies who do not like competition.

higher vs lower lower wins take notes

im going to go ahead and post my suggestion of: +/- 2

cuz when im 25 and still using level 24 spells,
i dont want to be jacked by someone using level 29 spells

so a +/- 2 would make for freakin awesome competitive pvp at ANY level!
trust me

For those who want to reduce the PvP range, in terms that everyone here can easily understand:

If you have little or no experience in EVERQUEST PVP, stop making stupid suggestions. Stop being scared.

Anyone who is a true veteran of EQ PVP knows that +/- 4 levels is NOT ENOUGH.

Maybe a full group of 45s run in to a solo 50, they can't attack the 50? Wrong.

What about Kunark? Level 55 can't attack 50s, or 60s? Dumb.

With the slow exp rates, most groups will have wide level ranges. With a 4 level range, it is almost certain that group PvP encounters will have OOR members.

This guy isn't scared of the 8 level range.

I can think of some EQ vets here that think +4/-4 and FFA IN RAID ZONES is fine.

People should con white when they're in range, regardless of what level they are.
