Lost City Question

I was wondering what life was like in the Server (Lost City).

Because I have heard that you can kill or be killed after lvl30 does that mean there is a lot of killing going on constantly? I am picturing a free for all type scenario and pretty much Choas.

Perhaps I will have to make a character and see what it is all about. Lost City sounds pretty interesting.

    Yeah after lvl 30 there is free PvPing meaning at any time u can kill/be killed by another player. Although random PKing is not that often(except some certain guilds/players that wanna play it "the bad guys").
    Mostly it's a faction Vs faction thing or certain ppl that have issyes among them.
    I've almost hit 50 by now and have gotten PKed(or tried to :P) about 6-7 times(and 2 were when my faction was KoSed by another)
    So come join the fest xD

    Not that often? since you have passed the level need to do quest around secret passage, if nothing changed, you will have to wait until you need to quest around swamp of wraith. You are lucky if you ONLY get killed 2 or 3 times a day. the best record for me is killed by RQ and BLT 4 times in less then a hour. so what is your definition of often? 10+ per hour? :)

    For XxTORMENTAxx, if you can not stand get killed at least once a day then do not come. but it is part of the fun of this server.

    Do you lose XP when you are killed by another player? In Heaven Tear you lose I think 5% XP everytime you die.

    Good question! Random PKing doesn't really happen too often! However, if you see someone with a red name around you, keep your eyes open for them. There are certain areas where higher levels like to pick on lower levels (Secret Passage and the Swamp), but it really isn't that bothersome. Just spam them with PMs after they kill you for some mental PKing, lol. You'd just have to be careful as to which faction you pick though, because other factions may kill you on sight just for being a member of a certain faction. But, yeah it's really fun, every day is different, will always keep you on the edge of your seat and your eyes open! Also the world chat drama is ace! lol

    I do not know why you lose EXP on Heaven Tear, but you do not lose EXP on lost city.

    If you die after level 10 you do, but not if you get PKed.

    And yeah I know what's been happening at Swamp and it's NOT smt I look forward to. But in Orchid temple/Secret Passage either I was TOO lucky or really random Pking is not as much as it was

    lol... when i was at the secret passage, i barely got pked. Probaly only 4 times. At the swamps i only got pked 3 times but that was becuase my guild was KOS with another guild. Its not as often as you think it happens. People get killed alot probaly becuase they die and run bak in right after. <.< Besides, big guilds come help sometimes too so its not really a big deal. Sure it slows down your questing to wait for the people to be bored but we stil lhave the highest lvl on our server.

    Word of advice, if you plan on being a pker you better keep your eyes open at all times. If your red name and you get killed, there is a good chance you'll drop some supplies, equipped or not. You also lose exp when your red named.

    I'm also thinking about heading back to lost city. I've been lying to myself thinking that I could be satisfied with a pve server when deep down I know I lust for fights! b:angry

    In the secret passage there are often huge pk fests, and around town of arrivals. I see them mostly around there. Of course they are all very high level players that do it.

    Lol, HT often has MORE pk going on. You have no idea the amount of red names I regularly see. If you are a white name you WILL get killed. No way around it.

    People keep saying that you are mostly left alone in lost city however. Read the posts. I'm saying that in HT a white name stands out and you are killed every time someone finds you regardless. In HT just having a white name makes you KoS

    Sounds like people on your server randomly pks. I also read lotsa post on HT people whining how they got killed here or there like secret passage and then they go to pve server and they're fine. Your the only one i hear saying how much pk there is going on in HT. Sounds like you think your all tough. Why not move to pvp server and see how it really is <.< FYI, We have random pkers too like that too.

    See how it really is? I've said it before and I'll say it again. I had LC characters, after killing off the random pk attempts I got sick of the high levels killing the lows and left. I come from a game with some major hard core pvp/pk where the penalties were massive and I loved my red name. Dropping half your inventory when you die and nothing you can do to stop it? You get good at pk fast.b:victoryb:bye

    O.o you act like your all tough and saying how much pk is going on in HT. but u say u "had" LC characters till u got pked by higher lvls to much. not so tough... seeign how u quit. Also, those ppl lvl fast probaly partly to kill which is a part of pk. And about penalties. PVP as far as it's name goes is player vs player. Not player vs player w/ help from the game.

    I think the point Zoe is trying to make is that, while LC has a lot more pk'ing going on, the odds of getting randomly pk'd with a white name on LC are less than the odds of getting randomly pk'd with a white name on HT, because having a white name makes you stand out as a target.

    As I said, I killed off the random pk attempts. They tried to kill me and died trying, just like in CB. Fun. You have, let me use your own terms here, Teaparty red names. They mean nothing. Pking doesn't even mean anything here. Play a game where having a red name actually means something and then we'll talk about you actually being good at pvp.b:bye

    first, u gave up fending them off so u still are a quitter. People who made it to high lvls didnt let gettign killed stop them. Also, i get what ur saying is the red name means nothing but it does. I've seen npc atk red names before and sure they dotn do it as often as ur game but players atk red names. In my guild, if soemone has a red name then they get killed unless they on our allies or safe list. This is more PvP to me becuase once again, players vs players.
