Earlier there was a discusson on Gossip about the ammt of PK in the game. Personally I feel too many CPK areas were turned NPK. I felt this should be brought up on the ideas board and see what everybody else had to say about the ammount of PK areas and spots in the game. Maybe we can convince the immies to put in more, or take some out from this thread, so get involved if you have something to say or quit your whining about it.
I would like to see a higher level area that is mostly PK with some kinda boss mob that would be an actual challenge and might kill a few people before it died, Wynn used to be the fun one to go and get, but most people I talk to say there's no point to going down there. With the Antaraxia or wtf/e it is, even with its toned down damage, it outdates the old areas we already have.
Btw, was the fountain thing ever fixed down by Wynn?

Add to that I think parts of the wilds should be npk and ckp too and more reasons to go out in the wilds too. Add more things that want to rob you cutthroats, gangs of looters, etc.
-
I think adding more PK is fine as long as there are some restrictions that make it fare on the lower leveled players, like for instance you can only PK 10 levels lower than you, then the 120 remorts would have to kill each other and not some 2nd and 3rd class mort who does not even have a chance of fleeing to get away. As it stands the 120's spend more time chasing cannon fodder than having a decient challenge of fighting someone who can defend themselve. But also i think the recconing should be left as is, a free for all slaughter.

I am not a fan of the level restrictions on pk myself, and here's why.
Pk would not be an issue until about level 90 because most people are more concerned about leveling. This may seem nice to some people, but I think it adds a very interesting aspect of the game. It is a sense of respect/fear that would otherwise not be there. Also, it would provide as a learning experience vital to surviving pk at higher levels.
I got distracted in the middle of this post, so feel free to tack anything on or correct me.

I'm going to agree with ert on this one. Level restricted pk would cut into the fun of pk.
-
Cut the fun, or mean that you actually have to work for that elusive Pk, and i dont see how it would restrict Pk it would only stop a few from ruling all ala CoP days of thunder, for that fact if you want to still have a learning curve you can easily have kill morts only 10 levels lower and remorts is still free for all and turn 65 % of the game over to NPK and 15% to cpk , you then have most of the game in pk which would then make life difficult when you have someone within range jump you yet at the same time give you a chance to survive it ,, or shall we return to the days of portal camping cause all the 120's are in the same church. There is a restriction on Pking under level 30 (might only be recconing)why cause thay dont have a hope in hell, yet neither does a 2nd or 3rd class upagainst a 4th, remort or not these days. The trouble with PK is that there is no one to pk, plain and simple, make it so lower levels dont have to fear the highest and i will be being chased about by 10 or so 3rd classes all day long.

At present we all have the choise to opt an or out of total pk at a peronal level and a church level, the reson everyone opts out is because it is unfair and biased towards a minoritory who spend all thier time at home or rifted. Balance it up and make it fare, and you will then have others joining in the fun, i see no excitement in killing a 2nd class mort , but dream of a day when in will atleaste hold my own against the likes of soth and spunky.

Damn, there was a day when my name was mentioned, everyone with a pk flag shat their pants :P The downsides of retirement. Everytime I try pk, it's changed and I die real quick.
-
its nice to have fans, so thanks for the vote. In my day, ppl ran like hell, and the only people who could lay a hand on me were my own church members:) …but xavis has a good point...i'm not an active pk'er anymore...and after a few displays today, i dont see where the system changed much for me..i'm still taking damage thats crazy, even by our standards, and shits just not right somehow. dunno, and dont care.
i retired from the pk playing fields the second the game came back up after our huge downtime. with other projects going on, and resposibilities elsewhere, pk being whacked just gives me another reason not to bother.
till next time.

You guys make me laugh.

If it was still in my PK days, you would have been crying :P
-
I was around in your glorious "pk days" and it wasnt much like the descriptions you're providing :wink:
-
Lies! All Lies!@# *bawls* Besides, I don't recall you ever owning a PK flag so you wouldn't know what it was like if you saw me enter the room :P
Even I shat myself!!
-
Your memory is obviously suffering, I was the only churchless pk toggled player and made it my mission to disrupt CoP as often as possible. I'm sure Soth remembers.

Oddly enough, *I* remember that.
-
Oh… Well then I don't remember killing you at all :P
-

Damn, for real? There needs to be like a PK history or something that shows who've you killed in the past and how many times, cause I really don't remember :/
-
meh…see, i've told these kids this xavis, and they dont get it...
long before pk counters, how many times did we pk people? i seriously dont think its a stretch to say our numbers, before the counters were put in, would make our counts double or triple if they were kept track of...
hell, it says right now i have 4 cpk kills? thats bs...i cpk'ed pepper 4 times that i remember :P that doesnt count anyone i nailed at the portal, down at daktos, ect... so the counters seriously dont do us justice in those respects.
anyway..back to sleep.
