DZ vs Runescape wilderness | Forums

[iFloto]

The DZ is exactly what runescapes wilderness was when it first came out. Once you reach level 30 you are fair game to everyone, no matter the rank.

Now I don't mind when teams come around and wipe people out, that's somewhat the point.

But when I'm in DZ1 as a rank 30 and some 80+ comes around, there's little you can do but book it.

I think there needs to be a system where high ranks either cannot attack low ranks who simply cannot put up a fight, or introduce some sort of penalties for the attackers or bonus' for the runners.

I have yet to see a fight in the DZ between agents where cover or fighting strategies are used. It's all in your face craziness

Any game with open pvp is going to have this. There really is not much you can do about it. Griefing and ganking are par for the course. People at the higher levels inevitably get bored then they go flex on lowbies. Just be happy there isn't a level difference, because in other games you could have an end game geared player gank people in the starting zone.

DZ rank has nothing to do with your game play outcome. It only shows how much time they've put into DZ (w/ the possibility of having better gear than you); and get access to more BP. I'm rank DZ32 and was able to down a rogue agent Lvl. 65 with no problem. It all matters on your build and/or setup.

DZ rank has everything to do with the weapons you can use. Which is end all be all if everything else is on par

As I said... it grants you having access to more BP's w/ the chance of having better gear. Other than that, nothing.

I wonder if it would break the DZ if a PK range was introduced sort of like Carrion Fields back in the day. Yeah, you're free game, but only for those in your PK range, balanced it out a bit and combated griefing.
