Ammo Lootable in PVP 3 & 4

[Polynices]

i think anyway u try to slice it neo, it's not a good idea... but it could be a good idea if they made only the ammo u looted in pvp 3/4 lootable.

one could also argue all of this is pointless, b/c if MA wanted u to loot 'more' from someone in pvp 3/4, then they would just up the percentage of other stackables that drop compared to ammo in pvp3/4.

PKers should be able to have there fun PKing each other and looting each other but hunters/miners should be able to have their fun too without being mugged. MA should put the ores&mobs in some none pvp areas too or create a system where I don't get harrased by PKers while i'm trying to have my fun.

slither, I respect your opinion, and that of others who have posted in this thread. Thanks for sharing your views.

However, the fact remains that there are literally hundreds (maybe thousands) of participants who enjoy lootable PVP areas. Why should their enjoyment of such areas (less than 5% of the available virtual universe) be limited because of the opinions of the 'non-PVPers' (especially when the 'non-PVPers' can quite easily avoid such areas)? As I stated above, Mindark clearly created these areas with the purpose of enticing particpants to battle one another for the resources and mobs found there.

Yet this was a risk they knew they were taking when entering the PVP area. I also have been killed and looted in PVP4, and I certainly do not blame the person who shot me. I blame myself for being careless or overconfident (or carrying too much loot lol).

Mugging is illegal IRL (not supported); looting someone in a PVP area is not 'illegal' in EU. If it were, why would MA create lootable PVP areas?

You are not 'forced to run the risk of being mugged' in order to hunt or mine. You only need to assume that risk if you wish to mine in PVP3&4. If you do not wish to take that risk, as a crafter you have alternatives: you can hire a miner to take the risk for you, or you can buy the resources found in PVP areas via the auction etc. Never are you forced to do anything; that's what makes EU so great: a vast multitude of choices.

I don't think ammo should be lootable in PvP areas how else are you meant to exact your revenge if your in there with your last ammo! Atleast if someone pk's you takes your loot you've still got a chance to tp back and reclaim your stuff , if your upto it that is. Looting someones ammo too is just lowdown and not giving them any chance whatsoever to even the score.

I think being able to loot a participant of his stackables is good enough really, someones being a little greedy wanting to loot ammo too!

All the best.

Stackable, meaning that you can group one item together, i.e. bombs, ammo. Weapons and armor CANNOT be stackable do to that fact that they could have different tt values and you can't really group armors and weapons together, what would be the point of that ?

Now to the topic, i don't believe that ammo should be looted because...well i can't really give a reason cause other stackables can be looted, the bottom line is that it wouldn't be fun for players to risk losing ammo.

Make ammo lootable and pvp3/4 will be empty wasteland occupied by uber pk'rs playing solitaire while they wait for a customer who never arrives.

Just about as good idea as making all the skills and gear lootable on pvp.
