Re: RoE ideas

If bandages kept you alive in real life like they do in UO, then yeah I'd probably loot them. The reason we take bandages is to restock ourselves mid fight.

The problem with this is that the rich players (not characters) can insure their gear, whereas the poorer players cannot. It's why CoY never allowed pwerscrolls; because the rich players always have an advantage and that doesnt make good roleplay.

The biggest issue with this is that no one does it. If I were to loot 1k gold and a few gems off someone they would surely have a meltdown, weather its in the "rule book" or not. It has become the unofficial standard that you simply do not loot other players.

As for insurance money, I dont have more than 40k total on Europa, and its completely possible to insure several items on that. It only takes about 15-20 minutes to make 10k just by smacking around ettins in despise.

I don't want to enter the argument, please, but I voted wrong. I voted Agree, when I do NOT agree. Thank you.

1) Your rules on yellow bags need to be enforced then. Speak to your GM's.

2) Gahering 40k in Despise might not fit the character involved. And when your fighting dozens of battles a week it becomes a bit of a chore.

People don't forget the yellow bag rule, they just don't bother because it's stupid. =P

Re: RoE ideas

It's a good idea, but it doesn't work because people rather keep their things.

Re: RoE ideas

Yellow bag rule is the most useless rule in ERPA and CoRE, why people still insist on using it is really behond me. Its never worked as it should in nearly 7 years and guess what it never will.

Re: RoE ideas

Okay, I see I'm really new here

When I made the suggestion I was thinking in terms of RL, like when an army defeats another they claim all their weapons so they can't reequip or create a resistance movement in reasonable time. Also when someone tries to rob you and you manage to knock him out (dreaming) you wouldn't allow him to keep his knife.

But I can see what you mean by having people looting other peoples cloths and things like that. It could be annoying.

I also don't like loosing my stuff, but being a new player it happens a lot to me, and it's not such a big deal. I guess I was just curious about the 'yellow bag rule'.

Keep those comments rolling...

Hey when i was a new player we had no choice in the full looting matter. There was only one facet and that was Fellucia, many times i lost everything i owned to PK and RP brigands like Photek. Sure it annoyed the hell out of me, but you know what them days were the greatest in my UO life. Im sure even Klion would agree with me on this.
