sounds like someone needs some education and some extra attention in the find player list
Don't you see how this kinda action is part of the problem? "He said something I disagree with, so I'm gonna suggest everyone attack him!"? It's ridiculous! It's not how you win an argument or discussion!
If the idea is to improve PvP, then let's have a Live PvP Arena where online players can attack each other with full gears and buffs and without fear of being bountied or gained up. What's the point of pvping if your target is offline?
We tried that on Sigma Storm 2 with the Slaughterfest. It kinda worked but was not as popular as we'd hoped it would be.
As for PvPing offline players? It's an easy hit with minimal risk. Why wouldn't people target them?
level 25 - 200 +/- 5
level 200 -500 +/- 10
level 500 - 1000 +/- 25
level 1000 - 1500 +/- 50
level 1500 - 2000 +/- 100
level 2000 - 2500 +/- 150.
While not bad, a +/- of 300 is a hell of a lot of levelling to have to do if you were wanting to level beyond unwanted PvP. How's this?
level 25 - 200 +/- 5
level 200 -500 +/- 10
level 500 - 1000 +/- 25
level 1000 - 1500 +/- 50
level 1500 - 2000 +/- 75
level 2000 - 2500 +/- 100.
I'd think that is a little more reasonable, right? That still gives the highest level players +/- 200 attacking levels (though I think that might still be a bit high.). I'd also be inclined to only attacking up is increased until you level fully into the bracket.
For example :
Level 1025. He/she can attack down 25 levels but up 50. Once they reach 1050, they have the full =/- 50.
see the problem is there is the odd player not many but enough to make ppls lives miserable who constantly attack anyone within range for no other reason then they can i have seen it so know it happens ...only advice has been to lvl out of there range ..can you imagine if they had a 100 lvls to kill in some poor sods would be hounded out the game
This is a concern, yes. Thus the request for feedback.
XP loss is overrated to me, hades.
Fixed that for you. While it may be over rated to you, it's not to others. We have to be aware of all viewpoints.
Take out xp loss or reduce it significantly and both camps are happy, no? Now, maybe more would be willing to try pvp and you get what Jedi wants. More pvp!
XP loss is here to stay. We've already discussed that option at length here in the pasture. Reduction? Possible I suppose but unlikely.
But give the players who want out of pvp an option to do so.
A PvP Opt out is not gonna happen I reckon. This is a game with many facets. PvP is a pretty huge part of FS. That's how it is. If you wanna protect your XP, there is PvP Protection.
