An excellent idea?

Post by Rainigul »

You know how 1*'s can't be robbed below level 40? I think that's alittle unfair, because under lv 40 thiefs and hunters can still be easily destroyed by higher level hunters and thiefs, I think joymax should make it so that there are different classes of pvp, but this isn't the traditional view.

Some people are like 'Make it so you can't attack people 9 levels above or below you!'
ok, that sucks, because then everyone will have the same enemies all the time and it'll be boring, and you can't rob anyone 'cause they're out of your level range or some crap, plus parties would probably be screwed over, they'd look something like "lv 80, lv 71, lv 62, lv 53, etc".

Howabout this though:
At level 20, jobbing starts, but it's "low tier" jobbing, and you can only attack people from level 20-40, assuming you're doing a 1*, or have no goods. However, if you have 2*'s or more, then you can be attacked by all levels.
What do I mean by this?
Lv 27 trader is going with his lv 35 hunter buddy, they're doing a 1*. A lv 37 thief comes by, and starts to attack and fight the hunter, a lv 50 hunter comes by, but he can't do anything, the thief has no goods. The thief kills the hunter and trader, and takes their goods. Better luck next time my buddies.

Ok, what if they did a 2*? The lv 37 thief comes by, and starts to attack and fight the hunter, the lv 50 hunter comes by, but he can't do anything, the thief kills the hunter and trader and takes their goods. He now has a 2* load, and the hunter comes back because he's a lil' suspicious, and kills the thief.

Let's assume now that the lv 35 hunter zerked the lv 37 thief, and now the thief is dead and says "ahh well, I'll get 'em next time". The trade now continues, but a lv 45 thief comes by now "damn" says the hunter, "no zerk". The trader is brave and does a zerk assault on the thief, but is easily taken out in one blow, the hunter tries to save the trade by doing his strongest move, and praying for a crit, but he is quickly overpowered.
Next time, I guess they'll decide to do a 1*, eh?

You may be questioning how the whole hunter thing gets decided, when and when can't the low tier hunter be attacked by high tier thiefs? If the hunter is lone wolfing, then he cannot be attacked by higher level thiefs. If he is in a 1* trade party with a low tier trader, he cannot be attacked by higher level thiefs. However, if he is in a 2* trade or higher party with a low tier trader, he is free to be attacked.

What are your thoughts on all of this? This would make the game REALLY fun in my opinion, because this way, you don't have to be capped to have fun! Simply get your char to lv 39 and you can have the time of your life ;). Of course, once they hit lv 40 they might be alittle sore, but they can always make a second char for fun, because it only takes a little while to get to lv 39 :) So when they get bored of grinding, they can go pvp on their super noob.

The 9 level difference would make jobbing boring. No one would job because you would have to look for your level difference. I say we split it. 1* is safe like now below 40. But only for people 41+. Anyone who is 40 or below then that means its free for all even if its a 1*.

Did you even read what I wrote?

Ok, please read what I wrote :( lol. I was saying the 9 levels idea is NOT good, it just screws everything over, but your idea isn't that bad Nitro, I still like mine better though. It's ok you didn't read it all though considering what time it is for you and everything.

Anyways, gonna go to bed, I hope people will have read my idea and agreed on how awesome it is by morning.

I think its good idea ... but why dont we make it like this ... You can attack someone who is 9 levels below you , and up to the cap?

So if you're 42 , you can attack lv.33, and lv.72? But cant atack lv.30...
( I didnt read all your post Rainigul , its still morning , and I need to go to school ... lol)

I got an idea too.
Goods should be leveled by degrees. So that only each player can carry goods at his lvl\degree.
For example:
2 degree trader can carry 2 degree goods while protected by any degree hunters. Any degree thiefs can attack. But even thiefs kill all, they can not pick the goods if they are not 2 degree thiefs. They need a 2 degree thief friend to pick the drops for them:D

Are you capped or near cap? That would be why you are saying this. Or you have nice friends that hunt for you.

At level 20, jobbing starts, but it's "low tier" jobbing, and you can only attack people from level 20-40, assuming you're doing a 1*, or have no goods. However, if you have 2*'s or more, then you can be attacked by all levels.

That essentially sums it up.

The community is made of cowards. To many people would stop jobbing because people take this game to seriously and go emo when they die :banghead: then never job again. Good Idea. It probably would work before Euro when most people weren't afraid to job anytime anywhere. I could spend a whole day looking for loot any day, any time.
