[ninjacarldk]

emerald dream. used to peak at - what? - 1500 or more. now 300 is busy.

it's a long bittersweet story, that server, and there's no reason to think Nost will be much different. here's hoping i'm wrong

[whoopssry4]

u dont

[tigahawk]

I only level with a friend. So when we play, we're joined at the hip. This also works by making us the gankers rather than the ganked. Group with a friend & kill everyone in sight that's hostile.

I leveled on this server even though I hate World PvP. I then got to STV and the ganking was dreadful. But I kept on going thinking that when I was done with that zone the ganking would be minimal... It wasn't. I am leaving the server because of it.
Have fun all you "PvP" lovers.
Oh yeah... The reason I chose this server even though it was PvP: There are no good PvE servers out there.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out snowflake carebear. Ty for your miniscule contribution in attempt to ease the server lag from overpop though!

Well, for the ones that do PvP this game is just, well, beautiful, while to others, in my opinion is painful.
That's the only thing, obviously if you're the one doing PvP and you're killing your targets you have fun.

Back to the main argument of the topic: I usually rotate my camera in order to see if someone from behind is coming to ambush me or something like that and in other cases, in most dangerous zones (like STV, sometimes even Desolace from my experience), I usually drink the potions I have in order to improve my stats even by a little.

As if the person is ganking and I don't see a thing and I get attacked from behind, well, sometimes I try to escape by using crowd controls.

All of those points are mute when you're a lowbie getting camped by a 60. It doesn't matter how aware you are of your surroundings when a 60 or high lvl is two shotting you. The only thing you can really do is let it go. Let the assholes waste their life killing you.

Nevertheless, griefing is becoming a huge issue on the server. It's not so much skill but rather are you at the wrong place at the wrong time. At least to me, it's not the most fun thing in the world. I should be questing, running instances, and pvping horde about the same level, not running back to my corpse every few min.

Devs, this can't be helping your server pop and if I remember right, griefing/harassment had penalties in retail. Are there any countermeasures out for players that camp a lowbie area for a few hours?
