any1 played mir AFTER the 1.2 patch when pking didnt make you break stone/loose items? why does no1 remember that? lol
the only time we droped from body was when mobs killed you, and tbh for people like me who live in usa and have lag/fps lag, it really sucks that people twice my speed can try to kill me and possibly get some of my kit.

Stone wern't introduced till 1.6/1.7...

Always been able to drop from body on all forms of death.

I'm pretty certain both stones and non drop from OK came into mir much, much later than 1.2

Stones were at least 1.6 I think. I didn't start playing until after 1.4 and they were not ingame when i initially started.

And they definitely broke on PVE death, however don't think they did for PVP, could be wrong on that though?

They didn't break on PVP, only against mobs.

Also they did stop body drops from pk, but this was very late on - Around 2.3 or later I think.

I'm assuming he meant Euro/USA

Only mob deaths caused items to drop, pvp did not.

It was far earlier than this as I had stopped by then.

In fact I don't remember it happening since I restarted playing in 1.5

Fair enough, I only played on and off between 1.4 - 2.3

I know drops from PK were stopped because there was a skill to letting mobs get the last hit when fighting in caves(different skill from store pvp) drops from bag always happened no matter how you died. Cannot remember exactly when this was introduced though. Boundstones to reduce risk against mobs is completely against the mir basic play. Killing mobs to get items without the possibility of dying and dropping stuff reduces the game to near pointlessness. its win win with a bound stone on. No one fails all you ever lose is the time you spent getting to KR. Not mir.

if you do this then you need to lessen the chance of them dropping of body compared to what is is now(unless im just seriously unlucky as i seem to drop a awful lot), i my self seem to drop better than most bosses, the fact i can still be 1 hit at lvl 53 is well terrible, but im all for removing them.

Euromir you did not drop from body when pkd, you only drop from body if mob kill u or get last hit from mob (while pking)

only Mob death made you drop off your body, PK only from bag

Yes you did drop from body, hence the term recall pking, then they changed dropping from body on pk to only mob drop, then the recall pkers started recalling to lures, then they changed recalling altogether. Euro Mir was at its best when body drops from pk was around, then it just got easier and more boring..

Entirely down to opinion I guess.

As a Wizard it was far too easy to have a ridiculously fast warrior 1 shot you at later levels (Hence I believe the reason they probably removed Pk drops - Making an assumption here).

I find myself less likely to stick around for PvP on here due to the body drops.

This was probably changed because people take the piss out every little thi they can. If PKers where less brutal in there hunt for body drops the. Maybe it would not have changed. This is an assumption I didn't enjoy euro. Private servers had so many better new features.

I say this because every MMO I have playe has had things change that where originally good but because they got abused sooooo much they would end up nerfing them.

yea i dont remember the updates of when what happened, was what 8-10 years ago? lol
and yes i agree, you could always drop from body when killed by mobs. Not by players (except for in the beginning)

This is what I remember also. But here should be ok to have BS drop a lot more rarely and have the pk body drops we have now.

Just hoping those position 2-3 votes will count for something.
