I think you should advertise this and get a ton of people to play

Thats the quickest way to a C&D from sony, the second you advertise and are mentioned on lives forums they will send you one, its happened a few times before.

Do NOT advertise, do word of mouth.

Prophetsofsz.org has a post about it. You can ask Hemick to take it down and give him a reason and he will probably do it because the server you offer is one that he has been pushing for, for quite some time. http://prophetsofsz.org/viewtopic.php?t=413

And what about my level range question?

XebeknSZ · #3 07-11-2006, 04:51 PM

A few more things. If its RZ ruleset thats cool, but please don't make the faction like RZ. On Zek (which was RZ ruleset) the NPC's attacked people randomly who were fighting near them, not based on who had faction. I could be ally to someone and they could be scowl and be invis but as soon as I hit them the npc's jump me over him which is extremely gay. Please make it to where they attack the one with lesser faction only and leave the higher faction alone like it was on SZ.

Is the magic dmg reduced to 66% like zek?

Lvl 50's won't even attempt to kill out of their range because that penalty is super harsh. I would think it would be better to impose a less harsher rule like they lose kills (IE lvl 50 kills a level 23 then he loses 27 kills 50-23). Just a suggestion.

Im super excited about this server. So many people will want to play. BTW those are just suggestions. Obviously I'm not you and I can't see the disadvantage at the moment. And if you could answer the rest of my question on my original post, I would be psyched.

say you was 34 and the level range was 6 u be able to attack level 28 and 40, so this server goes like so 34 you can attack 26 or level 42. And at 46 u can only attack 42 or a level 50 so its gome down by 4 level range. At 50 you can kill anyone you so wish but there is a price to pay if u attack and kill someone under the level of 46.

Aftar reviewing the level 50 rule we thought of changeing it a little if u take 20% hp off a level 45 or below and he dies from a mob you will lose 20% Xp.

If you kill a person under 30 now its been changed u will lose a full level anyone under 20 you will lose 2 levels.

This rule is here to stay. Because i have been on so many servers and its over real fast so this should last a while.

Faction is working well and should not attack you if your an ally.

I was wondering if the old RZ ruleset was that you could loot one droppable item or either a droppable or a no drop item? Which one will it be?

klamath · #6 07-12-2006, 06:03 AM

There is no no drop items. you do the maths

apart from weps and range .

Barl · #7 07-12-2006, 09:59 AM

Cool, the server sounds pretty unreal then

i am an old player from Sullon Zek, good team. at first glance, this rule appeared to me to be just... i don't know the right word, i was upset at reading, i felt it was so limiting..

though, after thinking about it a few days, it's actually not a bad idea.. i just have one idea that might make it a little more fair

at level 50, the hardcore pvp'ers will never group for pve content. they will just travel arround killing people... this 2 level lose thing though, will force them back into groups, keeping the higher end players, and top level people to continue grouping, and encourage the lower levels to level up to 48 bec becuase there will always be groups of 48+s who've lost 50 trying to re-level up...

the only thing i'd chance is maybe, after you've attainded level 50 once, maybe leveling up 48-50 a second time should go at 2x or 3x the speed.. becuase think it's quite absurd to be robbed of 2 FULL levels for pvp'ing on a pvp server... or just disable killing of anyone below say 40, at level 50.

anyway, an explaination of why this would/wouldnot work would be great, when you can spare the time away from server maintainance. thank you!

There is no need to kill anyone under level 30 because you won't gain a kill or be able to loot there corpse if you are 50. This is in place to stop people blocking people from leveling and haveing a good time around there level.

Mistervirtue · #11 08-07-2006, 06:25 AM

i guess i just have the average Sullon zek mentality... killing is fun... no matter who the victim is...

but thanks for the reply, if you feel this is the best way to keep the server populated, thats great, the more people who play, the more people who will be in range, and the more poeple for me to kill i suppose.

Smedy · #12 08-07-2006, 09:23 AM

Killing indeed is fun, but not when its to easy. Im for this rule a 100% good work on it, i hate people 20-30 levels above raping lowbies, its no fun, and it definitly does not require any skill whatsoever, great & fun pvp comes when the levels are close by, then its fun to pvp!

any updates on your progress?
