Make sure you guys aren't killing the same people over and over.

The people you kill must be within 30 levels of your level.

Or all the work you are doing doesn't count.

Taken from another thread regarding PvP rankings. Hopefully this will reduce the amount of griefing and PKing of low levels. b:victory

    Lol it will make no difference....

    As you stated "reduce griefing"... if the people doing the killing are griefing, they do not care for stats padding, so they will continue griefing.
    Too often we loose sight of life's simple pleasures. Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown, BUT, it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and slap that mother#$@%#^! upside the head.

    You make it sound like they update the player rankings list.

    I think the effect will be subtle but noticeable.

    Before, Griefers would prob think "I'm making this guy miserable, yay, AND I'm also racking up my kill count ... heh heh". Now they know the 2nd part of their satisfaction sin't being fulfilled.

    Now, high levels will start thinking "if i'm gonna keep my PK rank up I will have to PK in this other area otherwise most of my kills won't count."

    Sure there will still be the bullies who don't care, but there will probably be a shift.

    And they do update the rankings, just infrequently.b:chuckle

    ONOZ... you mean I can't just roll through and wipe out an entire lvl 30 area and watch my numbers roll? Sheesh I guess I'll have to quit rpking... or just do it anyway for the reactions. **** griefing, until people freak out for being pk'd. Best part is when they freak out on you for killing em, so then you do it again... I leave the nice people alone, usually.

    Oh, and the fact that it's not gonna appear on my numbers, doesn't mean they won't drop. So the hell if I'm gonna stop killing noobs by the hundreds. They drop some of the most convenient things. It's not about being a bully. It's about the privelege of a pvp server. I'm sure you've all got friends to call that can come kill me. I'm squishy and under-equipped so send em in. (and if you don't have friends, you should probably work on that...)

    Don't really see how this is going to change all that much how people get killed in PK mode. As Iliam already mentioned a lot of people do it because it's a privilege to kill people in a PK server. That and a lot of people get satisfaction for killing other players, regardless of the level difference, or them being a bully or not. That's in the eye of the beholder.

    I can see some people changing their ways, but I reckon that most of the people will just continue to PK other users.

    I really think 30 levels is still a huge path. Like if i have a veno lv 30 coming out of west gate Archosaur, a lv 59 barb will kill it in one shot.

    I do understand the drop thing, i do hunt red names and pinks, when i see one of them roaming around with nice wings or 3 stars / legendary unbound xD

    but i really dont see the point of killing whities... Ive been always white because of that and i still got pked. (especially on wraith invasions)

    in all the time ive been playing and all the time i pass through lv 30-50 i learned from PvP server, that bugging on "why the hell you pk me" is just a waste of time... though is something so hateful when you are questing or farming and some ppl pk you and the nearest SZ is like hell far (lets say at the limits of Endless sea)!

    when some player come around me with yellow equipment or looking red i just play dead... xD and let it kill me, because, is hardly unlikely that im gonna kill it or even be able of defending, cuz most of the are charmed, with guardian scrolls and tons of HP... unlikely archers, so far i just got 2.5k hp xD (unless i feel like running and get a jiaozi and winged shell on and fly)

    One way rpk and pk of lowbies could stop though (for ppl that do it just for the sake of making other players suffer), would be to get a penalty when killing those... like, what about lossing experience?? i bet those high levels will think is several times even when aiming xD *cough* Headtrauma *cough* ArchAngel

    30 lvl difference isn't so bad. As lvl 3x, if you get a couple other together you can still fight back vs a lvl 6x.. or at least flee to sz when you see them coming.

    It just means that even mid level quest areas will be rpk zones now too. b:surrender
