Yep pvp happens on pvp servers.. ganking too. You know that when you sign up. That doesn't change the fact that PvP servers are always the first to die in an MMO and face mergers. That is not a positive point to a developer that says "spend time and money on this rule set".
Darktide has the healthiest population of all Asheron's Call servers right now. Just sayin.
Yeah best thing they did was make only one pvp server, that way when all the rage quitters leave because they got ganked the server population isnt dead.
its the main reason why pvp servers die, most people think they want real pvp but their egos cant handle dieing or being ganked, so they call names and rage quit then all of the sudden populations on servers get very low and people are left with nobody else to fight. so they quit and game is dead. ( see age of conan )
this is what happens when companies make a ton of pvp servers. if they only made 1 or 2 then everything would be fine after all the pvp wannbes rage quit.
Ganking and being ganked is part of the pvp experience. It's a part of what makes pvp servers exciting to play on for many people. I had a blast getting into scrums all over the place during the 2nd and 3rd and fighting over quest mobs and such. If you don't like it, there are PVE servers. =D
I'm tired of PVErs rolling on pvp servers for "adventure," "to try it out," or thinking they are pvpers and then cry bloody murder when they get killed.
One thing they do need to fix the lvl penalties/bonuses in pvp. As of now, even a 2 lvl difference is huge.
And some of us get tired of self-proclaimed pvper's claiming facerolling is actually a game.
Open World PvP where opposing player is +/- 3 levels, unless flagged or engaqged in a "hostile" act. Dropped loot, reputation, etc. There are rulesets that can be put in place to preserve and even promote open world pvp. Its up the gamemakers to actually introduce them.

That would make no sense to the story at all. It work in AoC because well its a chaotic time where its everyone man/women for themselves. Tera is based during a time of crises where all the races team up to form 1 federation to fight the invading argon. Now tell me how much sense it makes that the federation allow an promote killing with in their rank? No organization is that stupid to allow self destruction. Thats why flagging is call declaration of outlaw because your becoming an outlaw, why would there be reputation for outlaws? (beside bad rep which is what infamy is for)
Yes, you will get ganked...perhaps all the time if you don't learn to watch your back. That is why you group together with people and protect your back. The point of a PvP server isn't always for the good victory feeling but for the happiness of destroying a party while they take down a BAM. Their system is basiclly set up for the players to make the place...how they want. If you feel ganking is bad create a bamf group of people against it and punish those bad people. You can stalk them all you want and make sure they know you dont like it. It's going to be a constant battle if the system is this way but hey...I personally kind of like it. Protect your turf, teach em' to step off or go back to another server if you dont feel like stepping up and pushing your beliefs like all the other people.
That's how I see TERA....
It's how YOU make it.
don't like it? get like minded people together and try to change it up!
Claim what's yours....or challenge other people to take what they have.

So, they made all the content more solo friendly for nothing then ... good to know. =P
really what you guys want? everyone plus his mother knows, in a free world pvp you have bigger chances to be ganked, hence why you should play alone, or keep looking at your back always, check radar and so on, the best if when you get a ganker and even with a mob on you you kill the moron and finish the mob off.
also from what I saw, tera will ahve the criminal thing, so if you like me let the ganker kill you he get the red name, marked as criminal, then you go after him and kill him over and over. a lot of games I did that, in L2 was funny making then drop they weapons

its made solo friendly because there is a pve server and if your willing to take the risk of soloing you can.

You do not have to be in groups. I'm pointing out ways for people not to QQ about ganking in that post, You can solo it obviously but you have to be ready to deal with other people getting in your way. Oh wait did I suggest people have to do something without compaints...someone call the waaambulance.

Yaaawwwwnn. I'm not going to tell you to L2R(but I do suggest doing so), but no where in my post did I indicate such a thing.
