Default PK Redemption

I'm just going to throw this out there, even though I don't really plan to PK.

How about a redemption system in which a PK can become a non-PK once again but only if they kill x amount of other PK's.

This would add another winkle in the already complex PK system, but I think an "out" in some form should eventually exist. But that's not to say it should be an easy out, by any means. (and it would probably be quite difficult -- once you turn on your fellow pk'ers the difficulty will scale quite high against you)

In any case, this might give a little more ebb and flow to PvP life as more people might be willing to take the risk of jumping into the pool if they think they have a chance of swimming to the other side and getting out again.

And it would definitely cause quite a bit of drama, as making a "redemption run" would be a really big deal.

You do realize that we are an organized group of ruthless individuals, and anyone who attempts this will suffer permadeath before thier char ever sees the light again. You've already got the rest of the world after you. Why turn against the few people who can offer you anything good in this world? You will be hunted by everyone on the face of nodiatis, PKK's, and PK's alike. I would like to see this implemented, but i strongly caution against it to anyone who thinks they may want to go this path.

actually i think it would be fun to be able to redeem yourself of being a pk'er and it would also probably make some distrust among the pk'ers as you could be betrayed at any moment by someone who suddenly decided they didnt want to be a pk anymore i think this is a very interesting feature that i hope gets added

It is very interesting. Although, the only thing i see with this is that a PKKer can just come into our organisation, find all our safe areas, kill us, and then still keep his char safe by being redeemed. A very bad day for the PK community, and the PKK gets off scott free. And, all those kills would count as PKK's as well.

hate to say this spartan, but they way you are going on you wont last long as a pkr'.saying we have an organisation and will be in packs. lol

you haven't got a clue about been a PKr. so what you have tried it out a few times with a little experimenting.

i was the 2nd PKr in this game after Buldermar. we grouped and killed a few chars. Buld was around lvl 13 i think and my 2 chars were 11's. Buld lasted a fair length of time before coming to his end. i lasted a few more days, before falling. it is hard to move when you're in a town with 10-20 chars sitting there waiting for you next move. if you get stuck in that situation you will not lvl, but just gain skills till you die

the way the game is currently set up you, with the way we have to cross back and forth you would have to be grouped atleast around lvl 20 to stand a chance of lasting a decent amount of time.

fair enough there will be easy picking at the start with everyone at lvl 1. but they will be grouped as well and i'd bet atleast 1 Pkr will die in an 3 v 3 battle.
and that is if they are the same lvl.

one more thing as the minimum to attack is a lvl 5, they can be more powerful than you think. so beware. if i come accross you will suffer permanent death quickly. and i will tell you "I Told You So"

keep an eye out for me..

I personally dont like pking much but i do know that the only thing a pker can rely on is the pker itself not other players or pkers and secondly the idea of a pkker becoming pk to find all the hiding places is very risky as there are other pkers can reach to kill you and give you permadeath before you reach to redeem your character so therefor its not risk free for anyone who has anything to do with pking
