Evil & Good

i have a question, What If Some Players Create a Guild That Their Goal Is To Make The Corruption Of a server The Main Thing? Like 'n Evil Guild Wanting To Make Disorder In All Server (Or Maybe Just For Their Main Node)

Is It Possible To Make That Kind Of Things Like 2 Overpowered Guilds Of a Server To Change The Whole Server By that Conflictr?

I Think bcs The Lore Some Players Would Like To Be The Villains And Serve the Corrupted King As A Rp And Main Of Their Gameplay .

    Well, they can corrupt themselves easily, and corrupted players could band together to create a corrupted safe-haven node I believe, as I haven't seen anything preventing such things yet.

    This would actually be a super cool thing to happen in a server IMO

    But they wouldn't be able to corrupt other players if that's what you mean. Corruption only happens as an effect of said players actions.

    In the early days of L2, one of the lower level cities had a breach in the walls which allowed red players access to the town, which was a non PvP zone. So the reds could PK south of town then flee inside to avoid death. It was informally referred to as the 'chicken hole' for the corrupt cowards who used it.

    This sounds amazingly fun. We need this.

    I don't see how this would be possible since NPC guards in any node will kos Corrupted characters.
    I think Good v Evil is different than Corrupted.
    Specifically, Evil is not the same thing as Corrupted.

    Yeah this is it really

    you have your good players = heroes, helpers, RP
    You have your "evil" players = raiders, RP
    and then you have Corrupted

    The dead do not squabble as this land’s rulers do. The dead have no desires, petty jealousies or ambitions. A world of the dead is a world at peace

    Oh I didn't know NPC's were flagged to kill corrupted

    I guess it makes sense, and gives more reason to keep people from wanting to be corrupted.

    Though it does also prevent a cool corrupt civilization from forming as OP described.
    A corrupt civilization could be broken, but it would also be perfect hunting grounds for bounty hunters and other anti-corruption based systems.

    In the example above, as long as the red player stayed away from the other town gates they didn't have to worry about being killed by NPCs. I don't know if they could interact with merchant NPCs or not, perhaps some old L2 player can answer that.

    I do believe that they could go into the local guild halls, if they were a member of that guild.

    Corrupted are treated as monsters by NPCs.

    i think Corrupted Players Are The ''Evil'' Players Bcs To Reach Corruption You May Have To Kill Someone e.e that's why :pensive: , and also, just think about it, if that could be possible then , an Evil Guild Vs The Good Guild From The Other Side Of The Map (there could be a Nice PLAYERS EVENT, Smth Like War Between Those Guilds Where The Smol Ones Could Participate by Unification With The ''Dark And White'' Side, Also This Thing May Be One Of End Games Content) But i think that Might need More Work, But Still ... Could BE Very Cool (i'm Just Sayin' My dudes, love Y'all)

    Killing Combatants is not Evil.
    There is a dark/twisted path of magic that player characters can pursue.
    I have to remember to ask Steven how that relates to "evil".

    Also, corruption is not necessarily the same thing as evil
