kTERA PK ruleset

Outlaw system:
on lvl58 with a special quest you can obtain a new skill with which you can declare yourself as an Outlaw and can attack everyone/get attacked by everyone. This is system is point based as well which I find a bit puzzling at the moment and there are some explicit rules for "notorious" outlaws, once you are an outlaw you have to work your way out of this status. By default the score decreases by 1 every 5 minutes, you can also decrease your outlaw points by killing mobs: -1 point/mob.

1-100 points: minor penalties (condition depletes a bit faster, 2x chance crystals brake, unable to benefit from rest exp)
100-1000 points: medium penalties (condition depletes faster, 3x chance crystals brake, attack power decreased by 50%, movement speed by 15%, unable to benefit from rest exp, teleporter and pegasus cannot be used)
1000+: major penalties (condition depletes extremely fast, 5x chance crystals brake, power decreased by 90%, defense by 75%, movement speed by 30%, teleporter and pegasus cannot be used)

Now all they need to add now is outlaws have no protection in safezones.

If an outlaw is in safe zone trying to get rid of points, they're not going to be able to progress their character or be out and about causing havoc. It effectively removes them from the game (though not forcibly, it is their choice to stay in the safe zone)

I don't see why they would need to remove the safe zone protection from outlaws. Any outlaw that's hiding in town, after running rampant among the lowbies, because they don't want to die is going to get viciously mocked anyways. It is the PvP server after all

They seem perfectly fine to me.

You do know that kTERA has been using this rule set for a while now right? (far harsher penalties though and can't PK as early as 11)

Yea and it only applies to players 6 levels below you, which is fine.

Ok then im fine with it, but again couldn't low levels use this to their advantage??

In the end the high level has to kill the lower lvl for anything to happen. Technically it could be possible but what would be your defense? "he made me kill him"?.
