LucasCaldeira 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2011 I was checking the exp table on bc, with chars 13x+ I have killed more than 6 chars 12x and gainned a little quantity of exp, i die 1, o lost more exp than that i gainned. And if we check the pvp clan top 10 pvp the first clan have more than 1000 deaths than kills. It have to be changed.! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GuiBitencourt 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2011 The pvp exp. is totally wrong! My example: I'm 132, i'm pvping against 4-5 12x at the same time, when i kill them all, i gain 10-20-30xp, when i die once, i lose 80-100. What i want to say is..."pvp" is not 1x1, there are always more then 1 guy hitting u, so...the most of 13x chars will always have negative xp. Look most of our 13x players, only a few have posite xp (the hit and runners). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Odoaker 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2011 i noticed the same, i killed a few 12x ( like 9 BP ) gained like 60 xp Died once, lost like 70 xp so dieing one time costs more xp, then i get with 9 kills weird much? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dying once should remove like two of those kills. If you're higher level, you should gain at 1/2 the rate and lose at 2x the normal rate [roughly within reasonable lvl diff]. If you're lower level, the opposite. Losing over 9 kills in one death is just too much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
martual 1 Report post Posted May 18, 2011 13x just get immuned to the negative XP please because you can never gain XP in PvP at your level .... best to do as below: 1. Change the PvP XP formulae 2. Reset XP quarterly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CurbYourenthUsiasm 0 Report post Posted May 20, 2011 The problem is the original idea behind it was a good idea. How many lower level battles are interrupted by lamer high level players that come over and wipe out? They shouldn't get xp for noob hunting... fight some people around your own level. And if I'm 120 and I kill a 130, it's supposed to be more meaningful than if I kill a 120 or 125... so I should get more xp for that. If I'm 120 and I lose to a lower character then shame on me and I should lose more xp than if a 130 capotes me... Maybe a little tweaking to the system could happen, where deaths still impact you in a negative fashion and still is level based but maybe the values could be lower, who knows... But lower level chars should still be given the chance to be on these lists if they earn them through PVPing... The list is almost accurate anyways... if you did a Poll on who are the games best pvpers you'd probably see some of those names pop up on there... maybe not Chapz or Moketzy (no offense) but I know for a fact you wouldn't be asking me for a x1 seriously thinking you'd have a chance PVP is a funny thing, cause like somebody pointed out, not THAT often is it ever 1 vs 1, most of those names (Legally or Illegally) are some of pvps best at holding their ground in a crowd and still coming out in the positive Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Odoaker 0 Report post Posted May 25, 2011 ok, so i entered BC with -1045 pvp xp I killed 8 people with around 2k or 3k POSITIVE pvp xp ( thats 8 BP ) My pvp xp changed to -1035 ( so 8 kills gained me 10 pvp xp ) Then i died twice ( got gangbanged by 2 pikes and a mech ) Now my pvp xp is at -1131 Can anyone explain how the fruit i loose 100 pvp xp with 2 deaths, but i only gain 10 pvp xp with 8 kills? System really needs some tweeking lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
uok_vn 0 Report post Posted May 25, 2011 Agree with the chance ! Not of all top payer ranking is good players. Higher lvl will be negative XP so far.... And, it make people have a bad action (hit and run with lag server, You will die without see anyone kill you). And many people like it. I think, we need to save the BP to know who is a good player to becarefull Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

babyarcher 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2011 first things first : pvp exp curbe shouldn't be linear imho lets add levels or "ranks" with defined amounts of exp to reach each rank sounds good, the higher your pvp rank, the more you lose when you die. and if someone kills a higher rank, the more they get. Perhaps we could introduce a system which lets you use PVP exp to buy certain items? And those items shouldnt be available through donations, and you use up pvp exp when you buy items?

Perhaps we could introduce a system which lets you use PVP exp to buy certain items? And those items shouldnt be available through donations, and you use up pvp exp when you buy items? That might give a purpose to non siege PvP, but that is rather iffy and really depends on what the items are. Considering its PvP, I would imagine it would have to be PvP oriented things. It is questionable because I'm sure there are ways to exploit the PvP exp system and gain easy exp. Wouldn't want people having a reason to do that. Also would probably take some work.

babyarcher 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2011 we should display the ranks in game too. so you can see the rank of the player you're going to be fighting/challenging/gang-banging/back-stabbing. Perhaps in the top right hand corner of the screen when you click on someone, like how it displays their clan and their name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
