Thanks derubael for the event . I hope you host more in the future . Grats the 3 lowbies that won the guises . They might not be big named players but handing out prizes and loot to new players might get them to continue to play on this server and it also will draw new players in

Vharvest's first two points seem reasonable. Trying to push the two groups of end-gamers into mutual cooperation and respect was an awfully lofty goal for a single GM event, and in the end required disabling PvP / forcibly DT'ing people to stop PvP, neither of which are gonna be taken kindly to by much of Red99's population.

I don't agree about Derubael, though. I think anyone'd get pretty irritated if all they caught for what amounts to elf-quest charity work is a bunch of grief and whining from most of the server population.

Cool to see the GM's run an event here. Hopefully it'll happen again sometime, looked like it was fun.

Actually Colgate is one of the few endgame players I respect because he's never sold out, so if you were going to take the advice of a faithful, it would be him.

And, as a Rallos Zek player on live, item loot was my #1 motivation to PvP and get in the thick of things. There was NOTHING more rewarding in PvP than taking down someone who had better gear than you because you were a more skilled player.

I was a 15 year old kid merc'ing people on my SK who had 30kpp or more worth of gear in advantages on me, and I can still feel the hard-ons I would bust out after killing one of them and getting to wear something of theirs. It would end up being a huge upgrade.

For real, add item loot. Looting plat doesn't really matter.... plat drops everywhere. Looting someone's Fungi though? Epic.

a number of people have reiterated that you will need a thick skin to run red, Derubael, and you responded by getting defensive.

Think about dat

I disagree with peoples statement that we should have no "pve" events.

What's wrong with encouraging people to work together who otherwise never would have, to get a shot at some legendary items? That's one of those things that everyone secretly wishes we had more of because it encourages new players and creates friendships that wouldn't have otherwise occurred on a free for all pop server.

Any GM event is a good event in my opinion.

Level 60 scene is jaded and has several years of history as frenemies.
