Another cut-throat test

How in any way does a low lvl template stop griefing? Just because you start with a lvl X char isn't going to change the fact that someone with lvl X+10 (random number but you get the idea, I hope) is going to completely stomp you.

I can stomp you just as easy if the dev put a level capped on the templates because its call cut throat server after all where you go there to pvp but there should be a level cap and no pve character character should be transfer there.

I'm sure you get the idea by now.

If you wanna see me stomping other players that has 10 level above me, check out my old video.

It require no skill at all because I'm using the best pve gears and an unbalance skill against bad players

You weren't clear on a end cap of no leveling, just a starting point, so it was assumed you would still have the option to level since it's a pretty standard feature of the game.

So basically you just want a random arena with premades, aka taking everything out of the game besides dueling. So once again I say that doesn't sound like anything cut-throat is about, and should be a separate league.

Here let me break it down for ya

I want

1. pre-made characters with a level capped base on what ever the dev willing to toss out or test. (NO pve character transfer)

2. you still can level since that's the point of a cut throat server but there should be a level cap on where you're leveling so there won't be 5 lvl lvl 50 jumping on your lvl 5 character ares all day long. (oh the griefing drama just thinking of 5 guys wanna stomp you)

3. every enemy drops you got from the cut throat server should turn into wisdom scrolls or random gems and when you kill x repeatly you only get wisdom scroll to prevent drop exploit.

What? Point 3 makes no sense.

Wouldn't it be a lot easier to just put a level cap on the individual instances/zones?

thats what I was saying but he's got this whole different league in mind and is trying to argue that it's what cutthroat should be

If i remember correctly the dev said dying will cause you to drop items in your inventory but instead of punishing the weak players, the game should just reward the victors some random generate gems or wisdom scrolls instead.

If i remember correctly the dev said dying will cause you to drop some or all of your items in your inventory but instead of punish the weak players, the game should just reward the victors with some random generate gems or wisdom scrolls instead.

update: a level cap should be fine but i don't like the idea having a twink character getting the best gears hence i wanted the pre-made template but if you guys want to put pve character in a cutthroat server where they get to stomp anyone with ease fine by me.

Cutthroat is supposed be the most hardcore of pvp types, where players risk nearly everything (Hardcore - everything, default - gear they are carrying)

What you're asking for is just the basic default league dueling but with premades.

There is no league transfers, every character made on cutthroat will be a cutthroat character, not a normal pve character, and grats if someone manages to survive and get enough kills in this world to be at a point that you call them a "twink" within a restricted set of levels (say 5) then to the victor goes the spoils, and when he dies he will lose everything just like everyone he killed up to that point. Also you level from killing other players so it's not like he can sit around forever killing the same people and not get pushed into a higher instance with a lvl cap in place.

I know what a cut throat server policy because its easier to said it than done . For example: 1. How would you balance out on a group of 5 camping a newbie spawn point?
2. how would you balance a group of vets x5 going around ganking loner?
3. how would you balance someone that play more, had more better gears and going up against those just starting out in a capped level zone?

Those are the basic questions you need to ask yourself before you start talking about cut throat risk.
