Why do you pk?

[halo475]

Recently after the release of the new pvp worlds i have noticed alot of complaints about the drops, little do some know that the pking system we have now is outstanding and is loads of fun. Heck brawler gloves are enough of an initiative for me to pk.

 

 

 

Can you remember hearing about this update and thinking, wow i can pk anywhere, i can kill people gathering recources to claim that spot etc. Yet all i see if people worrying about money and trying to "farm" drops. I play my normal runescape on pvp worlds expecting random fights everywhere, you should try it it makes playing runescape so much more fun and adventurous like it's supposed to be.

 

 

 

It's never going to be constant or fast money but it sure is always enjoyable. So far i have lost alot more cash then i have earned but i have had the most fun in runescape since i first became a member. Training str has never felt so quick either because i have gained 600k xp just getting rune defender's back busting to get back into it.

 

 

 

So why do you play on pvp worlds?

if I had your stats I might try to do my normal business on Pk worlds

yh same as above poster i fall into being attacked by range tanks, berserker pures with 99 str and many other nasty players

 

becasue of your levels it brings you above them and they will not try agasint your high defense while im a prime target for just ice blitzing and tb :wall:

Well, I play on PvP worlds mostly so that I can PK for some money. There's also the thrill of getting a kill as well. :

yeah if i had almost all my combat skills 90 plus then I would do it. But I pk on PVP just because I get bored of skilling. \

Stats don't count for alot considering you can only fight people your levels. My kill death ratio is 1:3 so that shows stats doesn't matter.

I PK for fun, drops are a bonus :)

[jimmyjames227]

I playerkill on free worlds just to cause chaos and for fun.

[spooferfish]

I don't PK. However the random drops are intriguing me. Now if only I could pk...

[Dragon_lord]

I don't PK for profit, I have other ways of making money. I PK because I love PvP. It's fun and exciting, and unlike most RS activities you don't get bored after doing nothing but that for a week or two.

 

Look at other popular MMORPGs, most of them are successful thanks to their Player-vs-Player features.

 

You're fighting fellow players, they have better IQ than the game's monsters (sometimes) and that makes it more of a challenge, thus fun.

Ive tried a survical type of gameplay, which can be used seperate from the regular gameplay. In this survival game it is my goal to get some real weapons/armour so I can make a few pks without ever accesing a bank. Starting without anything and eventually killing a few guys is very satisfying. You start small, obtaining a few tools, fishing a bit with your barehands, smithing yourself a few weapons. But if your stats (mainly non-combat) are good, you will eventually obtain gear strong enough to kill quite a few pkers. Its the ultimate exploring and surviving game.

I pk as a nice break from the mundane act of swinging my pickaxe to and fro. Its such a nice release from a long day of mining with my rune pickaxe to slash at someone relentlessly with my rune scimmy :twisted:...too bad I'm the one who usually ends up being pwned relentlessly. Eh, such is life :.

[brunokiller]

To see people kiss the ground.

[Golvellius]

To torment those who think they are better than everybody else.

That sounds quite good. I might try it.

[FlameHawk18]

It's fun to see people bow down to you.

 

 

 

 

 

Veng vs. AGS whilst your dds speccing= My dds spec and 75% of their AGS spec. <33

I think I'll try something like that too. In fact, I'm going to make another account, get combat level 20, drop everything my character owns, then from then on only play in PvP worlds. It might turn out to be a very different game.

 

 

 

EDIT: It's official, I'm out of semi-retirement! Dark x Will is born! *Thunder Clap* Mwahahaha!

[brunokiller]

I set myself a challenge to kill someone wearing decent gear and from full hp, 1 iteming with a dds.

 

 

 

I succeeded( And it wasn't even my kill :boohoo:

[pure_fett]

i don't/can't pk for money....

 

 

 

'cause you only get like 1/6 of what you should have gotten...

 

 

 

lol i killed full verac (yes he was skulled) and got a white mystic top and a karils coif 0

 

 

 

there is no way you can make the money back from the sharks/pots you lose unless you:

 

A. never die

 

B. NH the entire time (pj with gs/dds you get the idea)

 

C. always get the kill ( i watched a guy bank, eat to full health and run back out .... then i went on and killed him, full rune+dds+dscim = not my kill WTF BULL)

 

 

 

i want pvp and i think its cool they brought it back but for the pkers that made a living off of it in the old days

 

 

 

i wish they had updated the pking thing like they did with rsc and rs2. then maybe 80% of my friends wouldn't have quit.

[ladycai]

I Pk for fun!

 

 

 

My pure lost 200-300k so far :P Mostly in food

I've already made 55m from new PvP so i'm happy, lol.

[warren211]

When I quit members, I sold all my members things and ended up with a sum of 48m. After buying full sarah for f2p and a large supply of runes, arrows, and other f2p supplies, I decided to become a pker. I mean, it's not like rich f2p'ers have anything better to do than murdering other rich f2p'ers...

[Yomyth105]

i pk for thrills. i dont care so much about making money as long as i can support myself by having enough food and ideal equipment. its also fun to kill ppl and see them cry after they lose their precious armor :twisted:
