If your able to loot items, it should only be whats in your inventory. Because you have a bank to store you stuff in. Everything else thats binded too you, shouldn't be stolen. Plus your going to have bloodmoney in Conan. That's what people are going to be taking from you.

I agree to a point though. Why would you be able to take every item and gold? How would this make sense? If an item is bindable to that person (he/she is wearing it) what significance would it be to loot the bindable item? Granted that person can stock up items in their bank, but some people will get tired of worrying about fighting because they will lose everything on them. I can see if you loot all their gold and items in their inventory. This would make sense. But to strip them naked, taking everything that is not banked is pointless. I think people would rather run away from battle than go into it then lose every article of clothing, armor, and weapons. Yeah, devs should set up hardcore pvp servers for the hardcore pvper. Everyone has their own preferences how they want pvp to be. But if you implement a "Looteverythingspitonyourcorpseleavingyounaked" mentality on every server, your going to lose people. I don't know, it would be a challange and I like challanges, but some people will shy away from this. I can see it now a level 50 ganking people lower levels over and over leaving them naked standing in towns begging for money.

'Tis official, you will only be able to loot blood money from the other player. If the player doesn't have blood money on him, some of his gold will be converted into blood money to compensate.
Blood money is not used for gear. Blood money is used to buy your pvp skills and in Age of Conan there are 80 levels of PVE and 20 of PvP. What we do not know yet, is how many skills for pvp are there to buy and if you can buy them all or only purchase some based on level and what previous skill you took( like talents in WoW). |

what about AC type loot sytem you lose a certain amount o items according to your lvl but you could get di's (death items) that cover them... but they had to be worth more in value say have a platemail helmet worth 12k to cover it i would need items worth more than that

Your idea is horrible. You can't have some players subject to item looting and others NOT subject to item looting. that just gives the "non-looters" a HUGE advantage in PVP. they can use the rarest, hardest to attain, and most powerful items without fear of losing them..... while "looters" can't, because it will be lost.
if something costs 50000 gold for example a non-looter can save for a year and have it crafted and use it. A "looter" would never be able to do this, because it would drop when they die and be gone. The option that makes SENSE is to have a single server..... more if the numbers support it...... and have item loot for EVERYONE on that server. This way no one has to play it, and people can have their server with "end game PVE" and "raids" and "epic items that are insanely hard to craft / farm" .... but players like myself can have a server with NON of that garbage. I hate PVE.... i don't want insanely hard to attain items polluting my PVP environment. I don't want to run into a PVP team that wins because they PVE 10x more and have the best gear available in the game. I really don't....... i hate that entire concept. You should not have to progress your gear thru farming / pve in order to be the best possible PVPers. |

Full looting of a character in PvP puts the power into the hands of a select few. The first to reach the highest levels with above average gear will be able to suppress all of those below him granted he is merciless and spiteful (which most Full-Looting PvPers are). It works out great for the few that are actually able to kill people, but it's not so good for the people who stand no chance in a battle.
