As a white named character Id like to no what is the % on the drop rate for being pked. Last nite we had a 30 min mid air battle..and i was horrified by what was droped. I dropped all my money after i was killed (yes i was a white name) the person who killed me was red named.

The Healer whas also white and he droped a bracer and 2 fruits.. the person who pked him was red named..

Then we reversed our stratagy and killed the red named person..4 times and he droped nothing!!!! all 4 times. Now I realise he could have dolls or that binding thing on him.

But why r white named players dropping SOO much..i have never seen this happen before. In pw-my the drop rate for white named drops upon death was 1%... why would a white named player get penilized like this. Please confirm drop rate GM..i need to confirm this to my guild mates.

    They aren't going to say because they either have an NDA or dont ****ing care.

    I already asked this and got flamed by stupid know-it-all fools

    This seriously needs to be verified by an admin, this is of interest to RQ too as someone has posted a clearly wrong chart on our forum.

    I believe that drop rates of a white player must be determined by how many binded equipment the PK-ers have. If all the equipments are binded, then it's fair to have no drop from the victims. No risk = no gain ?

    lol if you dont want to lose drops and cant afford the binds then just turn the computer off or quit the game before you die:cool:, and the GM's probably arent gonna confirm the drop rate until OB

    dont u think thats putting the cart before the horse... OB= we already picked our server and we have already grinded to lvl 20 to make our guild. This needs confirmation BEFORE the above happens, Some of the guilds here that Do care about their guild need to no this...

    We do not want a F2P MMO that force players to buy their way in with cash. Look at mabinogi and other F2P games which you must pay to be playable.

    it's a common sense that we cannot "pay off" the risk all the time. No risk = no gain.

    I understand what u r saying.. assuming the red name had bindings on ( a fair assumption as he never dropped a thing in the 4 deaths that he took from us) then why did the white named players drop when we were killed? no risk=no gain? there goes that theory out the window.

    I am just saying that I do not like the current PvP item drops system whatever it is by stating the one i believe is a better replacement.

    There shouldn't be any drop rate for PKs, both sides, or at least not for the defender, he should get self defense rights.

    from the victim side, a self defense killing should be rewarded with a drop from the PK-er

    but from the PK-er side, Kililing a white-tag should be awarded with something. Either something reasonable drop from the white-tag player or something not from the victim.

    that's my idea

    They will not change the PvP/PK system anytime soon.

    I've never heard that you could drop gold -.-. Unless I get confirmation from a GM or from other players' first hand accounts, I'm still going to assume that gold doesn't drop..

    PWI, although a F2P, is still used to make money. They've already accommodated those who would rather not lose their items or simply rather not get PKed with the PvE servers. By removing drop rates entirely, PWE would lose a part of their income and IMO a valuable part of the PvP servers.

    Isn't that pretty much already the system...

    As much as i see it, there is always a PvE server... Furthermore i would agree on the thing that the white named player would had a very very slim chance of drop and PKer would have a lot higher chance on any of his/her equipment.

    I did pk white name, and get nothing in other server. I was happy, the fun to kill them is enough for me, and I don't want any item from them. It is pathetic when you kill them and loot something. Are you a freaking robbers? PKers have some pride too (RQ mems must like this ^^, they have their pride.)
    But when I kill a red name, at least I have a replacement doll ( back then, no one have soul bound items). I was happy too, and that PKers know they will drop something. It's fair for both side.
    Confirm the rate please. It is need for both side.
    I don't want to pick up anything from the white name I killed, but have to do so to avoid anyone pick it up, then have to write his IGN down, then mail it back to him... Cost too much time to do this.
    Why...so...serious?
