VZTZ assimilated by Rogean

Hey brews, I'm here too!

Check my join date...that's right.

I am an old and forgetfull.

Can someone remind me what the rules sets where for ORIGINAL PVP servers?

RZ was FFA +-4 levels? Item loot, then 1 item loot
SZ Was Evil/good/neut based on gods (anyone have a list of gods?)
TZ & VZ? I forget? 4 teams? or 2?

SZ came out in Velious IIRC thus iksar was included in the design. Would be interested to see a classic base SZ ruleset with no iksar.

Thanks

One obsveration I've made is that the playerbase loves to talk up how hardcore they are but in the end couldn't handle item loot without QQ.

What makes ppl think they would be able to play an SZ box that includes bind camping, trains and exp loss for a pvp death without also flooding the forums with tears??

I one for one don't like item loot. No fun when no one wears there gear for fear of losing it. Naked people fighting is pretty lame.

Anything else Is fine by me.
Bind Camping-Log off or just move, Don't get bind camped.
Training-Get off the tracks
EXP Death from PVP-eww

I agree though 95 out of 100 can't handle any of this.

Losing a fungi I camped 30+ hours for would be decent, definitely wouldn't keep it bagged.

Item loot has it novelties but unfortunatly it really deters alot of people from playing and it just dulls the pvp because you find naked casters fighting people who are frantically bagging their gear and it just takes a shit on the quality of pvp to be had.

That being said i would play with item loot and i did play with item loot on live and on vztz i just know what to expect. Lower population and a lot more of bagging and plugging then you would normally see.

item loot doesnt work out in eq. way to much time invested camping stuff

sullon zek style is the way to go

[Foxx]

Even tho on live i played on rallos zek, imo this type of server shouldn't be item loot. A reward type of server based on kills/points would work, but not really necessary, but if you wanted additional incentive to pvp that would be the way to go, not item loot. Community would be too small, most people wouldn't last on it
