Default Discussion: PvP Deaths (Item/Coin/XP Loot/Gain)

We are leaning towards a server with no item or coin loot, however there will be an XP Loss on PvP Deaths. We are open to discussion on this.

I feel it should be strictly coin loot, anything else usually harms the server. Whether it be people quitting out of pure frustration, or people bind camping someone for some "XP".

coin loot

the best eqemu servers used coin loot, item loot is fun, but empirically fails on eq emulator servers.

coin loot is cool.

I'd like item loot cause I enjoyed leveling 1-50 in No drop gear.

XP loss is a little extreme and may lead to potential griefing.

coin loot: yes. it's just a fun thing and no one cries himself to sleep over 200 plat.

item loot: no. too harsh. causes too much QQ, encourages naked bind rushing casters, backstabbing groupmates, etc. just promotes an atmosphere too harsh for most ppl to have fun. they want to wear their prized gear, not covet it in the safety of their pouch

exp loss: hrm. we'd have to see how that works out.... definitely grief potential. i'd say exp loss at level 50 (or eventually 60) for sure every time you die. but for lower levels trying to come up, maybe have some kind of limit. like only half a level's worth of exp loss per level or something. and no exp loss if you're naked, in your bind zone, and you haven't cast a spell/attacked anybody yet

Coin loot - yes.
Item loot - No. Doesn't work.
Exp Loss - No. For 1-49, item loot would probably deter less people than exp loss. Realistically, there's little potential for rezzes. Yellow Text is encouraging/discouraging enough.
Exp Gain - No. seems exploitable.

I feel like item loot and exp-loss would encourage more douchebaggery

Coin loot, no item loot b/c it ruins population etc etc

Definitely no exp gain. Exp loss if it's de minimis.

coin loot: yes, impact is minimal, nice bonus when you down someone.
item loot: no, takes too long to farm items, would not play here
exp loss: against it, corpse camping will result in a lot of exp loss, but it could prevent bind rushing
exp gain: against it, exploitable.
