many ppl start talking about pk but not in the right section :)
so here it is - yesterday i tried to pk for the 1st time.. waht do i see after coming myself and inviting a few others? like 20 people standing around smoking weed and drinking, instead of the pk.. some guy lost his shorts and was crying about it for hours, dont think he got them back in the end.. anyways i got bored soon enough even tho it was my 1st time and supposed to be exciting..
point is: there is no Area for PK.. the only decent grounds for normal pk is TW - you have a goal there, a large area, someone guarding ur back, actually can see an enemy coming at you.. in so called 'PK' you either smoke weed, or shoot someone and listen to him calling you noob - why in pk mode then - or get 1 hitted by someone from behind.. is this PK? or as i heard from others but havent seen - regicide comes and kills everyone out of safezone - is this pk? in this game it needs A Lot of changes.. even on youtube videos in pk servers waht i see is ppl fly-land, shoot/protect - well ok its way better then here but there is no Room for pk, no Prizes, no Fun in general..
what changes would i like?
1st. a TW instance to be available to access 24/7 for those in PK mode (without territory win) + normal TW on weekends as it is now
2nd. it could be 1 area for all - but then need to think on the 2 sides fighting - how will they be divided
3rd. it could be like Liquid vs Amplified or smth like that - lets say same stuff as tw, but available 24/7, once crystal is dead map resets and can re-enter and fight again, or choose a different opponent faction..
4th. could be not only TW zone, but developers could create other PK zones, even determined on lvl 0-80 and lvl 80-100 or smth like that.
5th. those PK zones could have bosses - you kill them and you get good drops, but you can be PK'ed at the same time, then those who wipe all the players get the chance to kill the boss and take the drops
6th. as someone mentioned smth - could also be events/zones as 'last man standing'
7th. in pwe, and in community/graphics, wings/mounts and everything this game is awesome - but Not in PVP
i think i would rly love this game if the PK stuff was changed here.. atm its just ppl dancing around and dueling instead of PKing, while the only fun thing pvp based is TW..

    PvP on Sanct is like in every other PvE server. Some 7x noobs kill each other, they get angry and call more people. In the end, Regi/Vindicate/Nef comes and kills everyone and land is in peace again.

    You really should go check LC or HL. Make a level 1 cleric and fly to West Arch gate. It's not much different there though.

    its what im talking about - it could be way better in all the game >> new pk zones, instances, etc. not just 'safe zone and outside safe zone' - pretty much no motivation to pk

    Yeah and when some PK actually happens, it's usually just high level people RPKing everything that moves.

    I really don't see anyting wrong with the safety zone and stuff for pk areas silver pool is a great place to PK, secret passage is great for PK, west arch is good and other places are their too but those are just the most popular atm i see what you are saying about instances where we could PK like in TW n shiit but lets just face it I doubt that'll happen so u got to make due with what we got and it aint so bad really cuz despite Sanc being a PVE server alot of people PK I got 130 hours in 3 days when I hit 80 so for me soo far it aint half bad

    ^^ y.. but hope dies last.. maybe someday somehow game developers will make smth good of the pk in general, another awesome thing would be for me not to have to wake up at 4:00 in the morning on weekends for tws, could at least be more different times :)
    good song about gms improving pk in pwi :P

    Well, the game probably doesn't tell you anything about the risks, and if you don't already know it...

    First few times you turn on PK, the game should probably make you type something like "I understand and accept that I can loose items, including cash items" in big red letters to ensure people actually know what they are getting themselves into.
    Slow progress, game is getting way too grindy :-( Quests I still hope to be able to do some day: FB39, General Feng

    PWE needs to put back in the Arena + expand it to involve cross server team pk competitions. Would be interesting if they allowed you to bet/win certain items in PK tournaments.

    Yeah Vincent and I still play :) Think serum still plays on the original server that we all started on, well that merged into other servers as a way to increase server populations. Vincent and I moved servers and changed races ;p

    Mmm pretty much as to my knowledge. Lost contact with snowfoxx a few months ago. Think Magnate finally gave up, which is a shame because he became a beast templar x) I only started up about two weeks ago.

    Pssh! Excuses! All A's here my junior year of college and I gamed everyday. Let's go Shand. If you have time for RT (lol) you have time for a real game :p

    You rich guys should host last man standing tournaments or some kind of organized pvp. If you are waiting for epic random pvp to pop back up then you are doing it wrong.

    when people die and drop things in pk, and instantly someone picks it up and trades it back to that person, there is no longer pk, just tea parties :D
