    A Possible Solution to The Problem of PvP

    Force shit? What are you talking about? In the end of the day, whatever man. If you don't want more targets to kill and bodies to loot, that's fine with me. I'll stick to the stuff I do, and others will do the same. Right now, there's no option for the casual PvPer, and changing that would...

    A Possible Solution to The Problem of PvP

    It also said things like "I MAYBE get pk'd once every 3-4 days now" and "I actually enjoy the cat and mouse game". He didn't need the typical "how to survive a PK attack" speech... he's making a different (and very clear) point.

    YOU do. That means absolutely nothing. Just because an exception exists doesn't mean that the rule isn't established. The clear majority of mage PvPers run stun and throw expl potions here. It's not even my words... drasked (or someone else in one of these conversations) called it the meta...

    Exactly. And they win the most, considering this is what they do here. I'm not getting Sallos, so I'll hand over my loot as well. I don't see a downside for them.

    A Possible Solution to The Problem of PvP

    KAZ... come on now. Take a deep breath. You keep arguing about the incentives for PvP right now, yet casual players and PvMers still don't participate. Why? Because getting ganked by PvP groups simply isn't appealing, and that time could be spent far more constructively. Of course, this...

    A Possible Solution to The Problem of PvP

    Not once did that poster say or imply that he didn't want PKs here... just that there should be a more balanced fight. I'd love it if a player who attacks an innocent player couldn't offscreen. It would be hilarious.

    A Possible Solution to The Problem of PvP

    I hate this nonsense. Please, change the rules so all three accounts are locked for 2 days and I'll never call the rules relaxed again. The truth is, 3 accounts on a shard with fast skill gain and multi-clienting makes temporary stat loss much less a certainty, so targeting PvM characters is...

    Diversifying Mage PvP

    What? I think the mechanics associated with my concerns are obvious. The justification for expl potions is running. Instead of fixing the problem (running), it creates another (constant dependency on expl potions). And the "wonky shit" that happened was called "a counter to expl pot spam"...

    Diversifying Mage PvP

    I've made my intent very clear in each post. My last thread was locked because the "flame the person with an opinion that differs from mine" strategy is a great way to silence others. I'd love for that to not happen here.

    Diversifying Mage PvP

    What the hell are you talking about? I did answer it directly, and in length. If you want me to expand, no problem, but don't play this "dancing around answering it" nonsense. 1 - Bad mechanics: marathon running being allowed and explosion potions not splashing are two of my very least...

    Diversifying Mage PvP

    You know what the truth is though? I have plenty of money and gaming options. I seem to gravitate back to UOF. As much as I love the PvM improvements, the PvP is - as stated above - cowardly and diluted. I just started getting my wife into UOF, and my sons have expressed an interest in...

    Diversifying Mage PvP

    Ha. Understanding stuff is so hard. I wish we had a forum assist program to help... I don't care if everyone uses different clients. I was gauging the interest in PvPers trying out the in-game macros for PvP. Clearly, they wont do it. I don't need rewards for PvP. I was giving a...

    Diversifying Mage PvP

    It's a good question. The "evolution" of UO has made curing poison so simple that Poisoning is now irrelevant in PvP. It would only help things to tinker (and test) a slight boost to increase its effectiveness.

    Huh? I've been here for a long time. I've PvPed plenty in the past, including in factions. What are you talking about?

    I participated in factions in the past, but I wasn't in a "PvP guild".

    Diversifying Mage PvP

    It's so strange that so many refuse to tinker with the mechanics here. Poisoning, for example. Poisoning was relevant in mage PvP, whereas now it simply isn't. Reworking it and making it viable isn't some insane concept.

    A Possible Solution to The Problem of PvP

    Couldn't agree more. Due to the relaxed PKing rules here, the PKs would never go for it. It's way too easy and profitable for them the way it is.

    A Possible Solution to The Problem of PvP

    I wouldn't mind a system such as this. I like it. It forces players to pick their side and play accordingly. Sadly, the PKs on this shard (which are many) would never, ever be a fan, and it would never be implemented as a result. I've always wanted a system that encourages players to...
