Lets Save World PvP before we all quit.

[Covertz]

Hi Whitefall, Guardians & Defiants.

Since the 1.1 patch, The little PvP there was seems to have entirely dissipated. It's such a shame to see SO many PvE guilds and players sit in instances & grind rifts.

What I'm proposing is that we try one last attempt between both factions to start some wicked World PvP in the higher level zones. To achieve this we'll need several guilds/groups of players that are dedicated to the cause actively searching for enemy players & causing havoc!

Should we organize some sort of "Epic" large scale battle?
Should we allocate one evening to have roams?

I really want others opinions on whether we could do it, Is the interest there on both sides? I don't want to have to quit the game as I enjoy it. But the way its going PvP wise, There's nothing to keep me here.

Thoughts?

Any 5v5 event, count us in, <Roots>

[Azgaard]

any zerg vs zerg count us in.

I passively suggested this in one of the IRC channels a day or two ago, but got no response. My thought was to have a dedicated evening, most likely a Saturday, and request that for the night guilds send out groups of 5 to roam in Stillmoor. A suggestion to boycott WFs, dungeons, and other forms of PvE for perhaps two hours (6-8pm?) would be appended in order to maximise the population out for open world PvP. Maybe I've become saturated with Hollywood's dramatisations but I felt something like this could potentially work, either way if this is planned I'll definitely be there.

Indeed, The more people we can get involved in stuff like this the better! <Pyran> do our own "event" on Sunday evenings however any day suggested would be excellent. I have yet to enter a end game instance & I intend it to stay that way. If we don't get others involved we'll soon see the death of any sort of competitive PvP.

I agree about the guards as well, There was no nyerking point. It's like TRION wants PvP to die... Give us PvP objectives, proper title/rank system & better rewards & RIFT will flourish.

I wait in hope.

I'll poke our pvp officer towards this thread, I'll be 50 this weekend and have been concentrating on enjoying the levelling so far, but then it's pvp all the way

There is no real "world pvp" in this game , its PvPvE which is a very bad concept, only way to save pvp in this game is to have a zone witout any npc's and a terrain fit for world pvp.

Ill be back when that happens.

If it has to be organised it's already dead. We roamed lots, no one else does. So we started ganking all the PvE'ing scrubs and they whine (predictably) that it's 'not PvP'. And to be honest that is getting boring now, even if the salty tears of all those PvE'ers are glorious.

This. Though we've already quit long time ago.

I believe we already world PvPed Pyran. I would much rather world PvP the cyclops in Shimmersand, they gave good drops and posed a challenge.

Well if we could get more of our peeps out to stillmoor and shimmersand, at the moment it's like 10 to 1 at the most. It's so brave to see that Guardian zerg take on 2 peeps no wonder why Defiants avoid world pvp At least that would be my opinion from the numbers of green vs red i seen there.

[Zul]

People want more world pvp, but dont want larger numbers to attack them. We were charging after zergs when roaming Stillmoor, regardless if it meant us getting lawn mowered down. You are never going to get equal opportunity, so be happy with just opportunity.

This isn't a thread for children buddy. If your more concerned about who you beat in some random fight then you should be ashamed.

We CAN make more PvP. We just need more people willing to do it. Its not about who wins or loses, Its about enjoying a game we play for the PvP.

lets make it like in daoc...
irc server for 5vs5 fights,
zone in shimmersand at the coast, there are not so many ppl like stillmoor and not so many mobs (i know stillmoor would be better).


fair 5vs5 fights, without adding/zerging etc, just 5vs5.
