    The Arena is like the PWIC tourney area. Still requires skill.

    An instance with many rooms is just asking to give Stealth Sins an even bigger advantage than they already have.

    then lets put some lvl (?)orbs which gives debuffs along the hallways. . i browsed all the pw maps and i found 1 thats not been opened, the Black Sand Palace. . http://www.ecatomb.net/map.php it's probably the one near the Land of Buried Bones, cos i see a portal down there whenever i do base quests. .

    Black Sand Palace has never been open, ever, because it was never finished. If you search the forums you'll find a few token threads on it. From what I gather, there isn't even complete in-game map data for it. It's not a matter of it being closed, it's just not really initiated.

    If you could make any instance in the game open PVP (like Secret Passage is right now), which would you choose and why?

    How about a dedicated PVP arena... ohwait we already have that but its BROKEN!

    Mind you, trophy mode wraithgate pvp enabled would be... interesting... lol

    Player 1: "Oh can i have that uber-good drop!"
    Player 2: "NO!"
    player 1: *Demon spark**uber attack**whack**whack**whack*... "Mine now, ty" *Town port* "ByeeEEEeeEE!"
    **party wipes**
    Player 2 thru 6: "Jeebus what a dillhole" **spams WC QQing about player 1**

    Or, better yet, turn PK on in the wedding chapels, hehehe:

    Player 1: Oh whata beautiful ceremony
    Player 2: Yeah, and the bride looks lovely
    **random uninvited 105 wizzy comes in, stands in the middle and fires off that merry-go-round lookin AoE attack**
    **random sltealthed sin shows up and stuns and backstabs the bride and groom**
    Everyone screams "ZOMG the CARNAGE!!"

    i didn't say it has been opened before -.- . . well you see they asked what pvp instance would you want to have, some people were even saying a NEW instance would be nice ( why werent they being quoted? ), an unfinished instance and a new instance wouldn't be that much different is it? except that what i suggested already have a draft of how is it gonna be like. . well you know pw, they rather recycle an old instance with a new name than make a new one. .

    Um that IS already available NOW on PvP servers. It's just that the PvE players that were able to get UBER in absolute safety now want to exercise their bully muscle.


    BTW, the Arena isn't broken it just hasn't been enabled. As many have said there are private servers etc that have it working quite well.

    Just roll a toon on a PvP server. I did. My rule was if anyone KS'd me I'd PK them... period. (I didn't always win but at least you go to the server prepared for the consequences)

    When I'm on PvE I don't expect to be ganked by bullies.

    Cave of Sadistic Glee would be cool o.o I mean come on does anyone actually even do the quest that's in their. It's fun pking in sp and being able to fly up and hide on the ledge ;3 and being able to pk as a blue name then still being able to go out and quest without being killed by a player is awesome o.o
    And also o.o I never pk lower levels. Or kill others unless challenged or attacked first. :P Make friends not enemies that way.

    I would say put the PVP in the basically unused Arena. Those have been there since the game began and are hardly ever used, if at all. I think it would be a good idea to have them there. You could even put in different rooms like in cube, some with mobs, some with mazes, some with gauntlets and some that are just open space to kill in.

    Another bad idea for a open pvp zone, fb/bh39.. with that one wall you can glitch thru and end up able to walk through the entire instance without being noticed.. would make a sins stealth look like childs play..

    personally i think there should be dedicated instances for pvp, with lots of new maps, maps with hidden passages, mazes, etc.. personally i dont see the fun to 20+ people all crowding in one little room in sp and whackin at each other, it'd be so much more fun to 'hunt' for the people to kill em, make it a challenge, not a whack-a-mole contest..

    or just enable bramble in open pk

    My god I would love if they did this. I would play my veno 24/7 and watch sins QQ as they 1-2 shot themselves b:dirty

    I've been saying they should enable bramble in open pk for like a year or two now. It would balance the game vs APS in pvp. Though might give Psychics a slightly even greater advantage than they already have, but at least bramble can be purged; so unlike the Psychic seal buff it is not completely broken.

    i was just informed that Glee is already pk enabled on HT its just not many know about it...some faction mates got jumped in there by a fail BM

    all those in charge are doing is making more and more people leave the game and they don't care, they just do whatever they want to no matter what the players say or want....its being proved more and more with every update

    Like i was told one time when i asked support for help once "We don't play the game, Ask other players in the game how they fixed the problem"

    /end story
    Barbarian(Barber)=104
    Cleric(MysticFrost)=104
    BM(TooCold)=104
    Seeker(TiltedKilt)=104
    Assassin(Spongeworthy)=104
    Veno(UnZipped)=103

    Well whack-a-mole is a popular game, and that is exactly the problem in SP. Bullies getting their kicks out of killing weaker players.

    The reason SP is a popular place for these bullies IS that they have unsuspecting weaker players coming in for the quests.

    As far as hunting etc. sound good in theory. In practice Sins would own the place. Not much of a challenge when your opponent can see you but you can't see them.

    My suggestion if not the Arena, is a practice TW instance. At the moment only players able to get into a TW Faction get to try it out. The TW instance is already enabled, they just need to make a practice version.

    except that on pvp servers, you dont get pk'd when trying to do your under lvl30 quests.. well before the sp switch anyways.. also, i chose PVE server for a reason, though i do have an archer on a pvp server somewheres i never leveled much past the 20's i think.. i'm not saying i want to pvp, quite the contrary actually, what i want is somewhere for the people that DO pvp to go that doesnt effect us pve'ers at all.. in my time running through sp since its been pk, i've seen 4 types of people, those questing, those there to pvp with other people their level, those there to camp the lowbies and cause a ruckus, and those there to stick up for the lowbies and defend/assist them getting past the campers.. the ones there legitimately to pvp with players their own level feel terrible when they accidentally catch a lowbie in the crossfire, ergo i believe a dedicated area would be much welcome to these types of players, no more feeling bad..

    What about some of us that are already on pve servers at lvl 100? That joined that server to be with friends. We can't just switch to a pvp server and keep our stuff. So rethink the pvp server answer :P If you were the one on the pve server and wanted to pk more would you just switch to a pvp server and lose all you're hard work?

    SP was the worst glitch you guys have caused in a while lol, did someone say "mmm we can't fix it, just leave it" at the office?... why the rule change? why affecting lowbies? sure, they can get the mobs outside, but you're basically forcing the poor people to stone in? lmfao, they can't even afford gear and you do that, way to go.

    As of what place should be pvp, probably the arena?... fix it already or remove it once and for all.

    What you are doing there is simple, lets say a new player joins PWI, levels a bit, now he needs to go into secret passage to kill some mobs, oh but wait, he got ganked by a R9+12 faction. The player said "what the..." and returned DEAD to orchid, he resses and loses exp for ressing outside (it can happen...), with 0,5% less exp he returns to SP and asks to not be killed due to being doing a quest, goes outside and he gets ganked again. Player quits. PWI loses money on the long run. PWI is sad.

    There fixed it for ya.

    • New from PWE, Paid Character Transfer.. For the low low price of $25 USD you can transfer a character of your choice from any server to any server and keep all your flashy R9

    they used to say its not possible, but now i'm thinking it is, considering the cross-server competition events, i think the framework has been laid to transport a batch of character data around servers..

    Turn on PK mode and bind your gear. DUH.

    But let me guess, you are too afraid that someone will sneak up and PK you out of the blue.

    Besides with all the powerleveling available it wouldn't be that hard to level up again on a PvP server.

    That is exactly the problem with SP. People that don't expect to be PKd get PKd. Blue names and even blue names under lvl 30.
