Lets Talk About PVP

[Rig 17580]

1.9 all the way

[Norgeth 1894]

I'm not a “PvPer”, but I have participated in a good few wars and conflicts on the server, both raids and warclaims, so here are my thoughts. I enjoyed PvP on Arcas, it was simple and easy to understand as a then-noob, then during Almaris, I felt like my contributions to fights was lessened by the switch in systems. Stick with 1.8, it's easier to be relatively decent at, more action-packed, and is a lot simpler for noobs and people without experience to feel useful in. 

 

As for other gripes, make gear just slightly cheaper and somehow incentivize people having actual  stables in their cities/builds while still enabling others to use horses. ALSO, the whole definition of PvPers VS RPers is crazy, you can be good at both and neither are mutually exclusive, the way people think of this dynamic only excludes people from having the most fun on the server.

there should be an archer class that wears full leather armor/chainmaile and can use longbows with more damage or wield a bow on horse but if you have another armor class in your inventory (neth and iron) you physically explode and die instantly

1.9

 

1. I don't pvp much, I'm a combat roleplayer at heart, but I'm not against pvp either, I would definitely do pvp if I didn't have to slave away in the mines for 2 hours to try snd get a set of armour, to then realize I need to breed a bunch of animals then be met with limitations, even when I do that my employed ass isn't winning against the dude who no life's 1.8 pvp and caves my shit in. 1.9 pvp would definitely allow for better strategies and such but not work without redoing this gear grinding shit 

 

Whenever I get in combat it is with someone who I know will crp or properly at least, if they ask for pvp I so no because I am not prepared for it, I think the whole hour long crp bs can be fixed if you just do it properly with the right poeple

server is already laggy as **** due to the amount of outdated plugins, remove that stupid ass 1.9 sped up pvp that tries to imitate 1.8 and keep it vanilla-ish 20 hp, no armor tiers and no horse whistles 1.9 to minimize lag.

if lotcers can't figure out a swing timer for the 2+ years that we had 1.9 idk what to tell you.

yap yap yap bla bla bla your opinion is void and numb fella 1.9 timer pvp is the work of the devil

Just finish surge and balance tweak it instead of going back to the drawing board, there's no guarantee whatever is new won't be equally half baked. I'd honestly remove leather costs from the majority of things and lower costs in general. Also gear repair or any flavor of uniqueness you could add to the plugin would be quite nice. Gear quality isn't a system that really needs to be scrapped as the gear diff is mostly cosmetic even between mythical and normal quality unless you're using a proc chance weapon, especially without gear repair since realistically your good stuff will break after 2 difficult fights.

It should be on the NATION to grind the kits out for their fighters, not require everyone to have a kit.

keeping 1.8 lowers the skill gap a bit, which makes it easier for casual players and bigger groups to keep up, but it still gives people who actually practice pvp an edge over less skilled players. at the same time, i like the idea of someone really mastering 1.9 and creating a massive gap, kinda like how knights had a clear advantage over infantry in real battles just because they were trained lol. honestly, i prefer 1.9 over 1.8, but that’s probably just cuz i’m better at 1.9 than 80% of the server. 1.8 is better

[Rig 17580]

weird opinion on my end but 1.9 for main server and 1.8 for warclaim server is ideal for me, i am sure many will disagree tho

rip olpx, died for 1.9 pvp...
