It was still very much a thing that was extremely easy to do and constantly done on R99 when I played there briefly years ago. Damn near everyone you fight will B-line to the zone if they think they're gonna lose and plug to avoid getting global yellow text that says someone killed them. Like I don't think it's an exaggeration to say 80% of the people I tried to fight (and was winning) would at least make an attempt to zone/plug if I couldn't stop or kill them first. Maybe higher than 80% tbh.

If this happens they need to give Iksar clerics to balance it out.
Wouldn't they be on team evil?

I think a teams PVP server here is more likely to be a custom 2 team solution than any of the teams that Live everquest had. All of the live everquest servers had severely flawed team compositions.

3 teams probably wouldn't work here anyway.

No it could work. 65% evil, 25% neutral, 10% good. What's the problem lol.

^ right.

I think teams is overall inferior to rallos zek style, but it would allow an enjoyable element and permanent allies and permanent enemies which could make for a fun game for a few years. I think it would last at thrive as long as red 1.0 did.

Especially if it adopts item loot which is much safer when you've got hard coded teams.

Raid zones should be full FFA meaning teams become soft coded, so that "team a" team members can't intentionally train "team a" raids while being immune to PVP, and set up the raid for being wiped out by "team b"

But otherwise whatever espionage happens between the two teams won't be consequential. The main thing is when an enemy team is trying to screw over a raid force by any means necessary.
