So you are looking for a competetive game that also has character building, item hunting, and role playing elements? That genre doesn't really exist, except for Guild Wars which A.net calls a CORPG. But you already said you didn't like that. I'm sorry, but your kinda out of luck.
MikeMJM, you are very wrong. There are many games of that genre, just none have really appealed to me. Besides Guild Wars, Shadowbane is a all PvP MMO with character building, item hunting, ect.
DAoC is mainly a PvP game with those elements. World of Warcraft has a lot of competitive PvP. RYL and Lineage 2 are PvP based MMO's. There are lot of MMOs in that genre...
Also, most of the new MMO's being released in the upcoming months are going towards this EXACT genre. Darkfall, a amazing looking MMO, that will set new standards for other MMOs, is based towards the genre I am talking about. Age of Conan will be in the same genre, as well as RF Online.
So you are very wrong in the competitive PvP based MMO w/ RPG elements not existing. Not only do they exist now, the market is moving towards them, and making many improvements to make them better than the flawed existing ones. The only problem is, the amazing looking ones that I will probably play for a long time, are not out now, and i'm impatient. So I want something to keep me busy for a few months till the good ones come out.
And I will not try Lineage 2, for the main reason I won't stick to DAoC, the level grind. And I hear Lineage 2 has a 10x worse grind than DAoC.
Played 24/7. More popular then the actual wc3 game itself.
"DotA stands for Defense of the Ancients, it's a free mod for Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne. The purpose of the game is to defend your Ancient and try to destroy the opponents Ancient. The ancients are located deep in both bases, which are located at the top right and bottom left corners of the map. There are over 70 heroes that differ greatly in play style. Each of these heroes have been carefully designed so they are both balanced and unique. The map is updated frequently, sometimes to add new heroes, fix bugs or to make a balance update. The strategies possible with DotA are pretty much endless, choosing the wrong item and hero combination can mean the difference between a win and a loss for your team. The gameplay in DotA Allstars can be classified as relatively fast because as the game progresses any small mistake you make can be fatal to the overall team"

Besides i was telling him to try free trials of games that may have something he liked . Besides if the rumors are true and pre-cu comes back it will be a little better than decent i can assure you . Cant judge all MMO's by Wows #'s ..

And again so many stupid kids who reply to this topic like those who mention fps games or those who say in mmorpg there should not be any pvp in it.

Age of mourning or darkfall maybe something for you in future but they still in development.
And ones who called romavictor a good pvp game examen your heads pls:P.That game is a joke and what i read about it on site and forums its gonne be crap mmorpg and realy bad pvp system.

Give Lineage 2 a try. You might like it. It is not that bad.
