PK gold suggestion

Geeez, would never see myself posting this in favour of pks....( i hate pks for the note)

I am not sure if this has been discussed before, not in the past few months anyway and there has been a lot of updates since, including pking.

Is there a chance there could be a storage for gold? Maybe a storage gold skill too to help increase it ? Or just make the storage for gold. I dont think asking for %interest is good here, it will create disbalance, but having a storage for gold will be useful.

If a pker kills a player he takes (as well as 1 stack of items) all the gold that is not stored in the gold storages at towns. Meaning all gold that the player is carrying on oneself at that moment.

That will add a little thrill to players and more fun for pkers ? And also more fun for ppkers :PP

I assume that currently PKs do not get to loot gold when they kill someone (just a stack of items that isn't equipped or in storage)...

In that case, this could add an interesting 'hard-core' aspect to PKing. I fear though, that too many new players might not fully understand the system and be robbed blind of all their hard earned cash and flat out quit the game.

It certainly would make one consider the logistics of transporting gold - perhaps forcing players to even move money in groups. I'd be on the fence about that, though. Logistics already seems to be a minor issue in the game.

Overall I probably would not enjoy this. Money seems to take awhile to build up in this game. And not everyone is anxious to pay real cash for TC's. Like I said, a single PK could throw someone over the edge. Perhaps a small % of the money that a player has would be more appropriate, and forget the storage?

Say 5-10% of the gold someone has... That could add up pretty quick for a PK. Alas I obviously have no PvP experience in this game... If it were a little less risky (and annoying for other players) I might eventually give it a go. High risk/reward has it's place, but in my humble opinion the mechanics of this game don't fit.

Any PK system is delicate... As it stands, I honestly don't see why on earth anyone would actually become a PK - It seems like way too much risk and not enough reward. I can only imagine the perma-death of a long investment.

Sorry, got a little side tracked. Overall an interesting idea, but make it fair for the little guys, too... I believe that unchecked PvP can make or break a game.

Yea music, i hear what ur sating that sounds like an awesome idea, i was always kind of thinking about something along the lines of that but like a bank account, that u can access the amount u put in at any town. This way u could, like u suggest, keep gold safe from PKer's and have some non-save gold on the side.
