PvP kill text of some type. We would like to create something better than simply spamming when someone dies, but to begin with, it might be that rudimentary.
The more I think about this, the harder I get. Custom messages based on what class killed the victim? Maybe text based on how fast someone died? ("After a long and tiresome battle, X has finally been slain by Y in zone Z" vs "X just got obliterated by Y in Z!" Many be messages incorporating how many players did damage to the victim? "X just got ganked by <guild name, if all ppl in the same guild> in Z"

I remember on another box the messages were different but random, it would really be cool if there were custom messages. Then again, I know this is probably just a fantasy but.. Nilbog you have set my mind free, I can dream again...

I think thats a great idea, if devs are interested by something like this, we could have a brainstorm thread where we suggest sentences for a kill specific to how that player was killed.

I still think location should not be given away. The decision to tell the location of the death should be up to the player who makes the kill. It keeps it classic-ish and still contents people who wanted YT for so long.

As I said, it will likely be rudimentary to begin with. You guys are welcome to brainstorm some ideas for future patches.

I think killing sprees would be cool.

I'm happy there will be YT since so many people want it, and it looks like it will increase pop, but truthfully I don't understand why people care so much about it. /shrug, w/e helps the pop tho I support 100%.

1. It allows people to see where pvp is going down.
2. It will eliminate lying about who killed who, proof is in the YT.
3. Depending if there are custom messages, a lot more information will be provided

Just reasons off the top of my head
