You still have not explained why...? Anyway I'm pretty sure if this goes to poll most vid makers who was actually established pkers during 2007 will support it. I want wildy just how it is, so no bh worlds with statues that stuff is bad for the economy and had numerous glitches that caused mass bans and other complications.


no idea what numerous glitches that caused mass bans you're talking about, (probably because that's made up) but like someone mentioned earlier, Bounty Hunter craters were added because wildy was taken away, now that wildy is here, why would anyone go into the wilderness to go to a minigame to pk when they could pk in the wildy already. Also when the minigame doesn't even let you take the loot from who you kill, when you could just kill someone in the normal wildy and take what you get.

putting craters back would be a dumb idea. Bounty Hunter worlds with everything they came with back when they were released are what is needed, because not only do they make pking profitable, but it gives people a reason to actually come to the wilderness and stay long enough to get a target and try for a good drop.

What I loved about BH/PvP Worlds:

- Did not hurt the wilderness.
- I loved the EP system (minus where it got abused)
- I.E - I enjoyed the fact that you had to be in the wilderness for a while to be able to get anything.


If you guys are going to do this, I think you should fix a few things about the Wildy Rejuvenation update first:

1. Give ents better xp (at least 40-50k/hr)
2. Make it so monsters cannot PJ you in single combat
3. Fix black chinchompas so you cannot release them if you are in combat (the only loophole past the poll that I can think of)
4. Make elder druids not teleport you if the person you are attacking is running (they are teleporting the wrong person in this case)
5. Increase gathering speed by 1.5-2x at the resource area in the wild, remove the entrance fee, perhaps make it so you gather noted supplies, and make it so you cannot log out inside the resource area (solution).
6. Lower the strength/defense of mammoths and give them better drops so they are ideal for training (currently they are not)
7. Lower the levels of the dark warriors in the wilderness castle (or buff the amount of runes that spawn on the ground)
8. Remove the skeletons & scorpions near the abyss so you don't get pjed all the time.


Plus 1 to you sir.
Point number 3 is a must...I did pk people hunting chins and they just end up releasing them when they know they are 100% dead.

NO to EP
(earned potential)
NO to random loot from killed players
(mithril swords, iron helms, etc....)
Nobody wants to waste their pk load (inventory full of sharks and pots worth over 50-100k) to pk a mithril sword.....

YES TO CRATER

YES TO ALWAYS BEING SKULLED WITHIN THE CRATER
(no 3 item noobs)
YES TO LOOTS MADE UP OF WHAT THE KILLED PLAYER WAS CARRYING
YES TO CRATER



NO TO EP
- because 95% of the time your loot isint even 20% of the value you SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN.

As for BH ...
Lemme say something to those that want BH CREATERS, you guys don't have a clue how crappy it was.

They are even worse than PvP worlds. Bounty creaters were only popular due to the fact you could sometimes hunt RWTers and people who x-fer from phished and stolen accounts because there was no free trade! For a legit pker like myself it was a total rag and pjer fest. I would get pjed roughly 9 out of 10 times. Bounty creaters added now would mean a higher number of rushers and also PJERS than pvp worlds (at least you cannot get pjed on PvP worlds).

You have to remember back when Bounty Hunter worlds were released you didn't get what the other person had, but now that free trade is back, that isn't a problem. EP would mean additional loot, which is nothing to complain about.

In addition, PvP worlds have to be removed. They just split up the community. And the only good thing you can actually do in PvP worlds is hybrid fighting due to anti pj system.

Bounty hunter worlds on the other hand would be absolutely fantastic! It was really enjoyable since you could find fights of any kind (rag, hybrid, rune, risk, target , EPer). The only thing that sucked back then was you got loot that you totally didn't deserve from some fantastic kills. And the drop system and target system should work as simple as this :

-Getting a target in maximum 5minutes when you step in with risk unlike the 30minute back in 2010.
-You can only get bonus loot from your target (on top of what the player was risking)
-The bonus loot from your target would be based on your Earned potential (EP) and to those that don't know it's based on how long you stay in wildy or dangerous zone.

Just these simple things would keep people fighting and staying in BH worlds while waiting from an exciting target adventure :)


PS, please keep the anti pj system similar to PVP worlds.

Oh one more thing I forgot:

Please add rank system with kill to death ratio on hiscores from bounty hunter target and non target kills. And perhaps even reward players who are in top 10 with prizes in game like a really nice looking cape emotes etc...

From my experience with all of these bounty hunters is that we had a target to go kill and get the "Juicy" loot you could get from them if you killed them. Although keep the part where you get their items and than add an extra loot if they were your target.

Yes, and at the same time, an astounding no.

You did have better loot when you killed your target, but you also had a chance of good loot (STATUES/MORRIGAN/VESTA/STATIUS/BRAWLERS, etc.) from killing rogue targets.

This is what made BH Worlds so fun.

As for BH Craters; I assume the next demands are chaos tunnels, FoG, and stealing creation?

To every one who wants craters, wtf are y'all thinking? You can only find a handful of people pking now and it's not even on a pking world. A bounty hunter world meant for pking would be the right thing to do. EP and a target can actually give you a chance to make money from pking, instead of losing 50k everytime you kill someone, so why would you not want that? Craters are a terrible idea. Just use a bh world and unite the pkers all under one world. Maybe that can actually save your game instead of killing it off.. Just saying.
