why is it a pvp killer? I'd like to know if you guys just camp city gates just to gank lowbies.
Not directly. Mosly, if it teleports people to the instance, It reduces the amount of people in the open world traveling to instance entrences. It isn't a direct cause. But, it surely doesn't help it.

I presonaly, don't stand outside of a town enterance ganking people. I am more of a defender then an attacker. I like open world PvP because it breaks up the menotenly when questing/grinding. But, I don't just PvP. I do a little of everything.

Dungeon finder is great and adds players more fun then looking for group for an hour solo.
It tends to cut the time by 3/4. I am mostly against it for the way some people who use it act and what it does to a large chunk of the entire game population (Especialy, cross server).

I always got into better PUGs when people hand pick them instead of just getting random people.

Yes, I do want players to be able to force something on other players.


Sure, as long as PVEers can shove PVE onto PVPers against their will when they'd rather be PVPing.

Maybe give PVEers an ability like this:

Ability: Be a douche bag
Cooldown: 15 minutes
Effect: Targeted PVPer must kill 20 equal-level mobs and complete 3 quests before he can PVP.

Or did you meant to say you want to be able to force people to do what you want for your own enjoyment?


A PvPer isn't forcing you to do anything, you can sit there and die just like you can in PvE if a mob attacks you. I can tell you don't really care about the system and are just trolling, so what's the point.

For anyone to even argue for the dungeon finder is a waste. It isn't like you would quit the game if they didn't have a dungeon finder. It is such a small addition to the game. There is no reason a player would quit a good game because this tool isn't implement. I guarantee you if the tool is in some PvPers will quit and the open world PvP will suffer. You can come up with stupid comments and cheer for yourself as much as you want, but we both know it is garbage.

I have a better idea: Remove instanced dungeons.


So we can have another version of FFXI and have 24/7 monopoly's on HNM's until next server reset or it moves out of someones timezone.. but since this pretty much only NA player and not international it will never move out of timezones and 1 guild will always have the monopoly. Great idea.

I will use WoW as most people have played or at least tried it.

When WoW first came out. You have LBRS and UBRS you had to run. You flew the flight point and had to run into the instance across the zone. On the way you would find roaming groups of people set up in zone just to kill people trying to get to the instance.

If you got through that you entered a corridor system and you STILL had people/groups and heap of stealthed rogues ready to gank you. When you finally got inside there was ALWAYS one person at least being camped and you had to zone your group out to get the people who didn't make it.

This wasn't riveting game play. It was annoying. But it was part of the pvp server and you just accepted it. The same thing used to happen with MC and later BWL it just made that zone worse for cheap ganks. In fact I used to sometimes go in there to counter gank people just for fun as I knew we would get a fight.

The dungeon teleport does stop that kind of annoyance. But then so does rolling on a PVE server. To me that was part of a PVP server the good and the bad. If you want pvp only when it suits you roll a PVE. Same as farming was harder, everything was harder and more potential for danger. Changes like this take the challenge and what makes a PVP server unique. If you don't want to be griefed roll pve the choice is there already.


I also dislike the idea of cross server groups. What is means is that DPS C can be as bad,stupid, rude or petty as they wish in that group, because it will be a group of people that they will never see again. There is no repercussions for them, except a couple peoples ignore list. You also don't feel the need to talk to them as you won't see them again or be really able to group with them again anyway. You don't meet new people that matter to your gaming in a cross server LFG.

Wrong. You can make a choice PVE or PVP. You aren't forced to play on either. PvP has drawbacks and because of those drawbacks it can make it more interesting for people. When you take those things away you take away a lot of the danger and impromptu things that happen because of it.

There is an option for people who don't like ganking and want to focus more on PVE. But when you do that to a PVP server then you take away some more pvp options/encounters from them and they can't get it back.
