I think its happened on LC most definately- players rarely 1v1 anymore its always 4V1 etc, ganking seems the norm on LC which is a shame- i for one used to enjoy 1v1ing players, without others jumping in to 'assist', even at known pvping areas-silverpool, west arch, hidden orchid- ganking seems prevalent. The sad thing is that those that gank are quite capable of fighting 1v1- or are these players afraid of the challenge nowadays? To be totally honest LC should be renamed a Gank server, as pvp which i always felt meant 'player versus player' not 'player versus players' is now officially dead. You get more pvp on a pve server these days and thats sad.Id love to hear the views from others on all servers out there.....

    Why don't you go PK someone instead of QQing about it.

    There are people around everywhere asking to be killed. Just because you can't hang out at Silver Pool and solo PvP with someone then the server is dead.

    Are you even red named??

    What's with the honor schmonor crybabies? PVP in any game that I've played in the last, oh, 15 years, is never a 1v1 battle unless the game forces it to be. Open PVP/PK means you run the risk of being ganked, and if you want a 1v1 battle, in this game, use "duel", and preferably in a safe place to duel.

    Bring you friends and have a mass battle.

    1 V 1's are meh nowdays. All they are is a triple spark bore fest's . No attempt to use skill and not much needed either.

    So I was thinking that PKing is fun. So how do you PK? I use genie with stunlock and charms and event pots. (I am a BM)So I like to stun (in the air) people before they know what hit them and then kill them before they can move.If they start to run I use the genie to kill them I Love True Emptyness. O it is so much fun!!! I want to know what each class does to PK others. So let tell each other how we want to kill each other!!!

    PvP is fun. But if you really want some good advice check out the PvP section of the forums or especially your BM section.

    You cold probably get some really good combo from BM's in there.

    The only fun thing for me nowadays is to get chi for an ulti and drop on areas like west gate SP or HO and drop a BIDS with frenzy and 30 attack blessing. Theres a 60% chance i'll die from gank by randoms but if my bids procs theres a pretty high chance almost everyone it hit dies.

    And off topic. I couldn't help but be really amused when I saw some random person in shinra yesterday that I've never seen with a plus 12 rank 8 bow. Why spend so much on a dead server lol?

    b:byeEveryone scared of Essence. Who want pk? They pk mobs in instance instead. Lost City? This is a society with many people without my respect. Where is the action when I get ganked? I wish I could see that on Essence, but no they love Essence to own the game and dominate the pvp. Let's Essence dominate the pvp and we can all keep farming for fun.b:cutetea party in frost ehb:cute
