Because there is no PvP testing on the test server but I now play on a PvP server I felt it nessessary to post this here. Please take a look at the Carnage Flag. I dont think it is working as intended at all and it needs to be revaluated. For example: Last night three groups of freeport players came to the South qeynos gates in antonica. The groups ranged in levels from 18 to 62. They each ran up to the guards hit them once then ran off getting the Carnage flag then going to the Qeynos gate griffon station. Then as qeynos players would attempt to use the griffon they would be attacked by the players within the 8 level limit. If you attempted to fight back you would then become Carnage Flaged and the players well above the 8 level limit would then kill you. They did this for about 3 hours during which every 10 min or so they would run back to the gate guards and get re Carnage Flaged. First of all this is a clear exploit of the game mechanics in order to gain an unfair advantage which is a bannable offense. Secondly I am certain this is not how the carnage flag is intended to work. The flag system should either be reevaluated or removed altogether as it has little or no point with the changes made to city combat as they are currently.Next please take a look at traveling via the griffons. Specificly getting on them during PvP combat. Mutiple times I have been unable to use a mount due to being engaged in combat when attempting to escape a freeport player yet I have had many freeport players escape me by using the griffon. I dont know if the rules are different but as I understand it if someone has agro on you you should not be able to use a griffon. I dont know if its working as intended or not but please take a good look at it and make sure its not broken. Finaly I am really enjoying the PvP server. I am finaly having fun again though I do miss test and its small closeknit community. I hope you guys are all having fun.Labb Accident<Children of War><div></div>
