I'm just kinda curious about something. First off, I'll grant you I'm on a pve server, though I'm sure this is probably worse on a pvp server.

Earlier I got poked out of stealth by a level 100 sin while I was observing some pvp. It seems this sin had no intention of actually killing me, but I thought it might be fun to see how I fared against them. Needless to say I died very quickly and there was no contest in the fight whatsoever, I did get in a charm tick or two but I'm pretty sure that's only because the person didn't honestly expect me to attack.

When I did attack the words I received were "R U Serious?" Well of course I was serious, I wanted to see what would happen, even if I did pretty much predict the outcome beforehand. Still, I think if I want to attack a level 100 sin then there's nothing wrong with that lol. It's not like I went off crying and complaining about it because I died, it was my choice after all lol. I just accepted the result and went on about my business.

Anyway I'm not angry about this or anything, but I'm just kinda curious. I guess it's funny to a really high level when a lower level like me tries something against them, and I guess that would sort of make sense. Maybe my thought process is just off, but if the situation was reversed I think I'd just kill them and move on. Is acting high and mighty to lower levels part of the fun or what? I must have missed a lesson somewhere along the way or something. *Shrugs* I just don't get it I guess lol.

    High levels should not be so quick to laugh at lower levels. I have had at least 5 occurrences where I started chasing after a 99 or 100 player and they laugh, say you noob, then receive a shadow teleport + 7k headhunt instant death. Its usually followed by QQing about not being buffed and they want me to wait there so they can come back and have a "fair fight".

    tbh its not that bad on pvp servers from the nights i spy on LC :p tbh i dont hear much about ganking as you do here. If you get ganked just res and go back out there. From what ive seen theres more respect to say the least...at least in verbal form. they might laugh at the fail barb the rushes out only to arma and run back to safezone(lols there) but youre doing the right thing. just another idiot trying to up his ego. it is quite funny though when someone talks trash and gets 1 shotted ^^

    You can kill a lvl100 Sin if you time things right. It's not like they are hard to kill, they just hit f-ing hard.

    Anyone with a tripple digit level have worked hard enough to earn the right to act like a bad ****
    I don't care how old or young you are, how small your **** is, how much of a nerd irl you are or how depressed you are that you never will get laid. There is no reason to act like an A-hole to everyone on an mmorpg. Its a shame that I have to take time out of my day to tell people "stop being an A-hole". So I end with this, if your acting like an A-hole, and some one tells you your being an A-hole chances are your being an A-hole.

    Leveling to 100 is ridiculously easy these days. Not much of an achievement, tbh.

    100 isnt an accomplishment anymore really, having good gear kinda is... but that can just be bought so not a big deal either, i don't really get the whole arrogance thing in a game, just play and have fun, if being arrogant and an **** is how you have fun then i guess... oh well =P for the people who aren't like that don't let it bother you =)

    I think the big thing is not letting it get to you. I've been ganged up on too many times while questing to care about having to start over from a teleporter. I think the worst part of pvp servers is the high levels who think pking those lower than half their own level is fun. I've had quite a lot of pvp experience on different accounts, and I can honestly say I never considered attacking a level 35 with my level 93.

    But hey. It's just a game, after all. You get pked, you get a rez, you go on with your day.

    Well there is a build called a Nuke sin where you focus on getting as many attack levels as possible in order for your damage to be able to go right through all of their defenses. So if you had an attack level of about 70 with Diamond of tigers and the attack level increasing skill thingy then 70% of your attack will go straight through their defenses and u can hit 7k instant death.
