I'v played many mmos and a lot of them work this way and are way more HC then this game. This seems to work well for them and would not mind seeing some kinda change, to make PVP more balanced. examples of games like this in PVP would be EQ2 and wow, there are lot more. btw Andriel i understand that you like things as they are,and maybe afraid of change. Please don't think that this game is for the HC in any way. If this does not make since to anyone, explain your reasons. not trying to start crap. just putting what i think should happen, does not mean it will. Btw I bet if the mechanics was already the way i explained it, you would be use to it and telling someone else it should not be change do to the fact that you are comfortable the way things are. Change is inevitable for better or worst it will happen.
