Unwillingly

If you are on good OOC terms with your RP partner, and it's a CRP that's very focused on the CRP itself (like a spar or a duel), then yeah

If just the server didn't have this weird obsession with death being the ONLY ending to a conflict because cOoOoOonsequences (not every consequence is death, more if the crime wasn't murder) everything would be cooler, but yeah losing can be really cool, and if you get a cool opponent and not a ''good guy'' that will kill you in a grusome, horrible way, it can lead to really cool rp and rivalries, like it had happened to me both winning and losing! I recommend it!

there's two ways of being good at crp:

1. is being narratively creative & offering a fun fight without surpassing the limits of your character's capabilities. Win or Lose.
2. is having more ST items than your opponent & obliterating them with 2 emotes.

Though, i think the most important part in 'CRP SKILL' is communication. And god do LotC players (me included) suck at communication.
