It seems like a way for Jagex to keep the players happy so they don't complain (quite) as much when they die. Because no doubt those people are going to try to PVP again, so be nice for Jagex to at least level the field a bit.

If they made it to one sided then pvp would be even harsher then it already is. But there is most likely a system to keep the people who die a lot happy, or else they would think the game is ever worse then what they already think of it (and more riots would happen).

yea thats one thing ive seen after getting a high value drop. (as if my dp has all been used up) I will get a 200k drop and like 50+ ep is used up. then after i die a couple of times ill start to use 25% ep for 800k drops.

What do you say about that josec? Jagex even said their ep system is correct.

vid or it didn't happen. Make a log kind of thing with deaths/drops.

Oh and also, the easter pvp glitch would not have happened if dp did not exist

I don't believe dp. Drops are random in pvp (which is annoying, it should be back to the way it was). Old wildy ftw, but you have to deal with the new one. Anyway, the more you risk, and the more ep you have, the better your drops should be.

no...over 75k risk isnt nessasary. im risking 200k and getting 900k+ drops most of the time after ive died a few times. david's risking 500k and getting hardly much from what ive seen.

Also yea look up the pvp easter glitch.. or have someone explain it. thats stone cold proof there is dp lol

Hmm. It's too hard to say since you really can't prove it with hard evidence. Those special cases mentioned could just be coincidence or dp at work. But I think it would be hard to tell.

ok time for some explaining:

On 11 April 2009, the glitch was discovered. It involved PvP worlds and beast of burden familiars.

* A member would summon a familiar with beast of burden capabilities and fill it with anything valuable, such as noted unstrung bows, poisoned arrows/poisoned bolts, stacks of coins, and anything that can be stacked.
* They would log out of a members world, and go to a non-member PvP world where summoning familiars are not allowed. Each time they die, it would count as them losing how much wealth was carried in the familiar despite the familiar no longer being summoned. This would gain millions worth of drop potential.
* The player who has gained millions worth of drop potential would go to a members PvP world and perform the PvP trick, also known as the 25k trick or now the 75k trick. Due to the game thinking that they lost millions and millions worth of items, most of the time the loot would contain well over 2-3 million coins worth of items, and other times well over 20 million coins worth of items. Items that were easily gained through this method are: Amulet of furys, Dragonfire shields, Dragon halberds, Ancient Warriors' Equipment, Corrupt Ancient Warriors' Equipment, Abyssal Whips.

And THAT is hardcore evidence death potential is real!
