No xp loss from a bounty for the attacker...however, pvp rating should also not be transferrable on bounties either.

X2 I've been pushing for the removal of pvp points from the bounty board since the pvp ladder "fix" was first started.

Maybe we can get some bounty hunter points and some shiny rewards for the bounty hunters.

simple one this remove rating transfers on bounties. I am sick of being farmed by idiots who wait for me to go offline and farm me on say 3 bounties knowing i can do nothing about it as i am either at work or asleep.

Or as Luis suggests have an upper and lower cap on the amount of rating that can be transferred win or lose, say 5 rating (on a 100 stam hit) to stop people farming offline bounties.

I am in favour of xp loss for failures on bounties, will stop those cretins who pray for buff love to clear you.

Rating transfer(in band) for 100 stam hits only, on the bounty board.

If XP loss is reinstated across the entire band, then I would like to see 100 stams being the only type of hit that can take rating/prestige.

It's all I've ever used. I don't think it needs to be mandatory though. The increased rating transfer is enough incentive to use 100s.

Xp and gold loss still needs to be added to all attacks! The nearly risk-free attacks don't show who's dominant at PvP only who can avoid the BB. It's lame.

I am so sick of these posers that play the ladder and SCREAM when you hit them a take XP, then bounty and then have one of the other players who is also playing the ladder take said bounty and 100 stam you off the board Oh and the threaten you with a dlvl party from there guild :lol: . Thats the exact reason why I voted YES.


In support of all the Real PvPers out there I offer my sword to any & all who are LEGITIMATELY trying to win their ladder & have problems with a$$hat hit & bountiers or users of cheap tactics in efforts to try to win the ladder.

I may be small be I can give myself a lot of attack & am down for any party to teach these posers a lesson. Feel free to call me... send me a pm... but please... only if you're down to go hit for hit for hit to win the ladder. People looking to work any kind of an angle or pull any kind of fllim flam at all need not apply.

Let's keep PvP Pure!

No! Absolutely not! The bounty board is there for punishment for the players that dont want to hit back themselves. Bounty hunters should never be punished for doing their job!!!

+1


Even though he/she canbe countered and loose EXP (if your doing 10 stams and/or send some repair money back should not be countered)

How about if placing a bounty on someone not only cost you tickets, but PvP rating? That way people trying to climb the ladder have an incentive to retaliate themselves instead of placing a bounty, and it doesn't disadvantage levelers at all. Perhpas PvP "cost" could be proportional to ticket cost. BUT, this would only be workable if you could always do a retaliatory attack on anyone who attacked you, perhaps instead of placing a bounty. Which is also a good idea, from what some PvPers have told me.


Hmm I don't like it

Not a bad idea, but you're going to have a ton of issues whenever the ladder resets, where people can work around the system. Also the PvP "cost" has to be huge, otherwise it can be used to get an advantage, just like it has this far (eg. lower your own rating to take more from the opponent)

Initially I was going to vote no, but on second thought, Hor's idea can't possibly make BHing any less attractive than the so called "fix" did anyway. :roll:
