personally i feel that i should get points for any activity versus another player
they are called player versus player points
not faction vs faction points
not kami vs kara points
not pvp points only if you are not inside a pvp zone or op points
and certainly pvp points does not say you cant get points for killing someone in your own faction
heres why i list that last one:
if someone in your own guild or your own faction is being a jackass and you tag up and kill them that has alot of valid roleplay value, and hell why shouldnt you get points for it?
sure it might cause more random kiling but hey if you are tagged then anyone anywhere can kill you anyway regardless of what faction you are right? i can go to an op war as a kara with a kara title defending kamis and the mechanics allow it
if you choose to tag or choose to go into pvp designated zones or have pvp tags due to op battle (op tags or whatever) then all of that should give pvp points
- i suggest this because it will cause more interest in pvp
now now before all the hardcore "pvp is evil" players say a word i say this
it is in the game, it does have its place, it can be alot of fun
yes it can be abused and it can be used to harass or pick on someone
but honestly if you are gonna say to someone who doesnt like to dig, hey you should dig! its part of the game! you should dabble in all things not just killing stuff, to get the most out of the world... then.... it could be reasonably argued that everyone should at least get their feet wet in pvp a little bit just to see what its like
i had loads of fun at op battle last time, great fight, and on sns some time ago there was a huge turn out from all three factions it was fun to run around, really heart pounding
did i hold any grudges? no. do i think pvp is evil, no, but, i do think some people use it as a reason to be annoying and actually in some cases that sort of thing would be against the rules
and for anyone reading who does not know, there is no DP for pvp related deaths, i died a bunch of times and no DP so hey, if you want to just try it out go ahead.
the truth of the matter is that the strongest thing on atys is homins, not kamis not karas not marauder npc bosses not 270 bosses, no, all of these things are weaker than homins, and certainly not the puny kitins. not even the 290 black and red totally awesome gibbai holds a candle to a group of masters. not a kitin exterminator class mob, not the queen in demons lap
everything in atys trembles before homins so one day your skills will be so high you will have no other challange sufficient for them, than other homins. i dont play the end-game i dont play the high-level game, i dont even have a melee master yet. i dont have a badass pvp jewel set, i dont have boosted gear besides +24 dodge daggers made from easy to get dig mats
but i respect everyone and i respect that some players greatly enjoy pvp, and i dont think its fair to judge them especially if you havent tried their style of gameplay. in fact they're probably all very good at pve anyway since the game forces you to be good at pve if you want to gain levels, get gear etc for pvp
pvp points for any player versus player activity
op wars
pvp zones in prime roots
tagging up
regardless of faction regardless of civilisation
NOTE: i am not saying make it the same amount of points =) revise the point system give more points for certain activities, to promote faction battles perhaps. maybe more points for kami vs kara than kara vs kara, maybe more points for matis vs fyros than matis vs tryker
but if you are gonna tell me that i cant get any pvp points for killing talkirc then that's just nonsense because it was hard to kill him :P
