Faction & Guards

[Knowle]

Are there any plans to have guards assist players in PvP based on which player has more faction or in their home towns?

Getting nuked down while crafting while the guards just stand by and watch an extremely poor game mechanic. Everquest PvP faction worked really well. Can a developer comment if this is something they are working on?

Yes. Yes there is. Though, as you might imagine, we have higher priority issues to fix first. :/

Of course, this is a bigger problem for crafters and diplomats, so our solution will probably focus more on protecting those players than eliminating PvP between active participants in cities.

Im glad to finally hear it. Thanks for keeping us informed.

If you could ever talk with the guys, and come up with some sort of blog about your intentions for pvp as a whole (and the role it will play in VG), i think that would go a long ways in reassuring the player base thats interested in this side of the game as well.
