PVP in Ashes Opt in System to the planned Flagging

"So the chance that someone gets killed without firstly trying to fight back or cc its attackers are slim to none existing"

I disagree with this.

Since that's the basis of the perception, I also then disagree with the idea as a whole.

I also disagree with it because the system already literally does this. If you fight back, you already have a '-50% lootability'. The thing it is 'adding' is a lot of complexity around this which allows one to 'continue fighting without getting flagged. Which I think is a problem in healer-fighter duos, for example.

We have not received permission from Kardin to share the quoted post.

I believe I also do, even though I won't necessarily call it 'stupid', because it might be early. It might be 'a definite plan', and I don't know what the intention is in the other sense.

If it is to promote PvP to players who don't normally, then I feel it's more important to solve the problem you mentioned @Kardin , making so people don't just 'start fights with disadvantage' in EVERY situation of this kind (maybe give Rogues something, but I feel like even Rogues probably should have to be more skilled with their backstabs or whatever, and could be balanced around that initial damage)

If it is to promote 'interaction', 'a feeling of uncertainty', and 'risk vs reward' only, with no specific 'intention to increase PvP', then I personally think it doesn't need to be solved, any tweaking there would have to be focused on the Corruption system.

But basically @Asraiel , I think they would have to tell us which thing it is they actually care about before we could give any serious suggestions or even feedback on how they could change it so that we feel it is better.

I still don't agree that people fight back though, I can't even get people to fight back 'properly' in 1v1 PvP games that they choose to play a lot . Maybe at first they will, but most people who don't think they will win, will probably lose that habit pretty fast even if they start with it.
