Nagafen AoD owners that want Mercs disabled in PvP

[Vivender]

<p>Hello everyone.</p><p>I own the Age of Discover expansion, and find there to be great benefits in Mercs.</p><p>HOWEVER, I am one of many that thinks they have no place in PvP.</p><p>After going through posts about this issue, I have noticed that the Devs do not want to "disable" them. I hope this is a fundamental misunderstanding. . .</p><p>We don't want mercs to leave Nagafen. We want them to leave when we PvP. I understand that they are a huge part of the content in AoD. Don't get rid of them, just make them *poof* when we start PvP, like those nifty benefits from Mastercrafted Fabled gear do.</p><p>You have the code, already. Otherwise you could not recall your merc so easily, without paying more coin or waiting two minutes, when you come back from the BG's.</p><p>You don't have to disable them ENTIRELY, just make it so they don't join in PLAYER vs PLAYER. You can even do it in a manner that would be consistent with the game world. . . the merc could say "You don't pay me enough for this!" and go away. You can recall them when PvP has ended.</p><p>As far as I can tell, most every PvP'er that I talk to on the Nagafen server feels like, at the very least, PvP would be more fun if it did not include mercenaries. At it's worst, people feel like mercs absolutely ruin the PvP experience.</p>

So yes 100% support that mercs gets disabled in pvp.  If any one says otherwise then your a coward and not rdy to die in a fair fight. or an unfair fight.</p><p>Hartsia</p>

<p>Called it here is a link to the post that so many /ignore</p><p><a href="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/posts/list.m?topic_id=502967">http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/...topic_id=502967</a></p><p>Now we want to complain about it.  We shot ourselves inthe foot with this one for not being more vocal about what was being put in our game.  Well that and the test server.  For 1 I could not find the test srver for a while for some reason then when I fianly did my /test copy had been removed and third it was well after PvP had been disabled again by the time I got on the server. </p>

it should at least be put to an ingame poll usign there new ingame polling feazture, btu tehre is already a thread on mercs, lets try and get ti to 20 pages so they notice it

<p>Either a massive debuff or they disappear during PVP combat would make sense. I guess. <img src="http://i.imgur.com/kbrAB.gif" width="32" height="32" /></p>

<p>Completly remove durring pvp combat is the best.</p>

[Hekter]

<p>REMOVE MERCS from nagafen RIGHT NOW please - they completely ruin low level pvp and mess up targeting in high level, make them DESPAWN ONCE ENGADED IN PVP COMBAT or completely REMOVE THEM from the pvp server. thank you.</p>

[Xzerius]

<p>AGREE 100 %</p><p>Mercs should not be a participant in PvP battles what-so-ever.   What's even worse is that the danged merc is harder to kill than the player you're fighting !!!</p>

[Heleptra]

<p>Soe listen to your own paying customer for godsake! Remove the mercs in pvp at next serverdown time.!</p>

[Heleptra]

<p>Or people will and probally alredy have unsub because of this major issue. </p><p>Hartsia</p>

<p>In truth, as Dorsan so plainly states, Nagafen has been "ruined" a long time by the state of PVP.</p><p><strong>IMHO, now that all servers are "free" -- they should offer free entire-account server moves at ZERO charge.</strong></p><p>since we all realized long ago PVP will never be "fixed"....</p>

<p>just gonna say somewhat chuckling at a few who thought gear seperation and open city pvp was a good thing crying about pvp with mercs....</p>

[Heleptra]

<p>City pvp was a good thing! Easier to find pvp. And gear separation was also a good idea because it brought balanse. The pve gear stats arent made for pvp, it used to be yes, but with insane amounts of stats on high end gear makes it wery unbalnced, its not hard to have 2 different sets and also mix pve/pvp gear togheter, makes it more intresting, but we really need to see some new pvp gear when the lvl cap is going up to 92.</p><p>Hartsia</p>

[Applo]

<p>mercs are a sloppy way of balancing the classes.</p><p>GO MERCS!</p>

[Najen]

<p>Get rid of the Mercs during pvp situations. Its not the most pressing issue with pvp, but it is definitely one of them.</p>
