because you decide to steal some gold off someone which is all part ofthe game and what happens ? so total utter noob places a bounty on you for stealing what 100k gold ? and then you lose 5 levels
and honestly i dont blame you for not pvping if thats the retaliation
here are my ideas for reviving pvp
a lot of nubs arent going to like this but hey you cant make an omelette with out breaking some eggs
1) ability to steal from players bank
Something like 0.5% available by enhancement via items only - much like the master thief skill.
Now before all you gold hoarding noobs throw your arms up in the air and cry for your momma
This would hardly ever kick in the same as master thief - and dont think i mean master thief from your bank - i mean just a regular hit but this time into the players bank.
2) bountys should only be enabled on max dam attacks {100stams}
Its stupid to bounty someone for a 10 stam hit - see above for why
3) chance to steal a random piece of equip from players BP
This is called mugging - you wouldnt mug someone on the street by beating them up as hard as you can and not taking their wallet or posessions would you ?
Again this would be the smallest chance to stop it happening too often cuz all the SE hunters will cry
These are all ideas that i think can revive pvp and draw the players back in that are quitting because they are bored of going 1,2,3,4,r,1,2,3,4,r move
Let me know what you think people
Constructive critisism only please
