    Hello to the Elyos of Gamez Aion.

    I'm making a friendly post here to notify the low level Elyos players of Atreia.

    Due to the speculation of new pvp rules being discussed by GMs, and due to the fact that with the implementation of 1.9 allowing people of the opposite faction to identify low level users via color coded names I am posting here to let low level Elyos know that although my legion <Piercing Heavens> may be on the prowl for pvp, are are NOT interested in killing anyone who is not at least 50 and/or below Elyos Soldier, Rank 5.

    That means that if you're low enough to appear pink to our characters, we are officially going to leave you alone and not PK/Gank/Kill/Camp/etc/ad nauseum you.

    This is, however, pending a few conditions:
    While we will not actively hunt known low level characters, you jeopardize your "safety" (lol safety) if you choose to interfere with our battles with your higher level compatriots.

    That means that, even if you are level 35, we WILL kill you if you try to help your level 50+ friends out.

    We understand the difficulties and annoyances of being ganked, and repeatedly, during your questing and general leveling and we, as a legion, do not wish to make that burden bigger.

    So, if you see anyone from piercing heavens stroll by, and you are low level, as of the time of this post, you will not be intentionally targeted or attacked.

    However, I cannot stress it enough we WILL attack if:

    1.) you interfere with our fights between higher level characters.

    --This includes: Interferance by healing the higher level players, or attempting to assist them with attacks/skill usage.

    2.) you initiate unprovoked combat.

    However, please do feel free to give away our position in the LFG channel (in your chat bar type /3 and then hit space). To mark our position on the map, open your map (hot key "M") hold CTRL and click our location. this will inject a link into your chat bar that will mark an X on the map of anyone who clicks it.

    This will do 2 things:

    1.) Bring out higher level players, hopefully, to fight us for you, thus offering you protection (not that you need it, because we will not attack lowbies)

    2.) Provide us with easier access to pvp.

    Thank you for your time, patience, and understanding regarding this matter. If you have any questions comments or concerns feel free to PM me via the forums, or reply to this thread.

    I will not discuss private messages openly on the forum but I will respond to you.

    Messages posted on the forum in response to this will be replied to in public.

    I really like your manifesto. Shows that you understand the necessity of a "leave alone" policy of ganking lowbie chars.

    lower level people are meant, and have the opportunity, to level in areas equal to their level or areas inaccessible to their "enemies"

    if you take your chances to find your way in a pvp enabled area you take your chances...............

    How many times have i found myself so totally alone in specific asmo accessible areas and all of a sudden another elyos appear, "levelling" and mere seconds after that hordes of asmos.........

    weird.........

    But your post deserves respect as to its content from both sides..... it is a pvp server and pvp is a noble thing when done right

    As far as the leveling opportunities of lowbies are concerned, they can go from 1 - 20 via ascension , and 20 ~ 22 or so via the stigma campaign quest.

    This renders Verteron/Altgard useless, and mostly just skipped.

    Beyond that Theobomos/Brusthonin has a discrepancy of mobs. That is, the mobs there go from about level 13~25, and then a huge gap, and then there are mobs from 40~50.

    That leaves players between the levels of 23 ~ 40 to level in 'rift accessable' areas (Eltnen and Morheim respectively).

    Although it takes about 30~45 minutes for premium , and about 1 ~ 1.5 hours non-premium to hit 40 in that time span, it gets rather annoying to find yourself repeatedly ganked.

    I know what its like. My legion and I come from retail. In retail some people will still kill you even though you're only worth 1AP because they can kill you.

    My legion and I are out looking for "real" pvp. Not just a kill count.

    I want our legion to be recognized. When 50's see <Piercing Heavens> I want them to know they're in for a tough fight. When lowbies see us, I want them to know they don't have to stop what they're doing on account of us.

    If anything I want them to level up, get geared, get strong and then come for the fight.

    This game is full if mindless zerg rushes, and a lot of talentless players. We're doing what we can to cultivate some respectable pvp.

    Camping a teleporter with 20 of your friends? Not PVP.
    Raiding Teminon/Primum landing with 20 of your friends, when you're not even supposed to be able to get NEAR the place due to the atheric field that is supposed to kill the other faction on contact and auto-obelisk them is NOT pvp.
    Roaming in hieron/beluslan in a 6man party to take people 6v1 is NOT pvp.

    And all that is 99% of what the "pvp" here is.

    I know that there is a decent sized group of intelligent and respectable players here on this server who are capable of putting up good hard fights and thats the kind of example the rest of the player base needs to follow.

    And just to put this out there, if you're going to cheat, dont do it around us. Every single one of us have fraps up and ready to record any hackers/cheaters/exploiters we run across.

    Thank you for your comment. I apologize if I've rambled.

    After reading this, I have nothing but respect for you, Assumptio. You're obviously a person of much style and class and are helping make Asmos pimp'n.
