I hurumph at 5.0 staff's decision.

After discussing it with the staff we have decided against making Ender Chests smaller/nerfing them.

Pros to Ender Chests:

• Having storages like the ender chests makes the PVP more action packed and fun since it's easier for the defendants to fight back.
  
• Moves the PvP model from the classical "Kiwike Raiding model" to actual PvP where skills are required.
  
• You'd have to steal loot from player bodies instead of chests which makes attacks more fun and rewarding.
  
• Even if ender chests were removed, there would still be other safe ways to store items with virtually non-existent chances of players finding them so there's no reason to make nerfing ender chests a priority.
  
• The chests are a very helpful tool as an extended backpack when moving items or mining.
  
• Players have a safe storage where they can put their most valuable items so no matter how much they get attacked and stolen from they can always have a "second chance", resulting in more player activity on the server
  

Cons:

• Thieves and raiders would get less good loot
  
• Discourages the classical raiding model which is hella lot of fun
  
• It would be harder to attack people and they wouldn't be left in misery, which they should
  
• Fuck Ender Chests.
  

Pros outweigh cons. Sorry.

You are implying pvp in 1.4 takes skill? What a joke , if anything raiding is much more interesting and rewarding than killing players after they have ran for hours in their prot Iv diamond armour. And you are trying to say people would take out their gear and fight in their town if they die? they run and fist you all the time because it is the easiest way to do damage without loosing anything. In addition to this if you wanted to transport goods for mining you would empty out what's in your chest and put what you need in. Which is much more tactical. So don't try saying things which are easily contradicted and plain stupid.

I think you're missing the point of a PvP server completely. PvP means Player versus Player. Player interactions. Battles. Not stealing from people who just don't happen to be playing at the moment. Now that is plain stupid.

Lol. You guys are funny. Gira'a saying that people arent going to pull out their good gear to attack you close by their spawn, theyll zerg rush you. And Gira, while people will do that, theyll take out their good gear to go hunt you after youve left. Main, we need a lock I think.

[Crashlander04]

People won't take good gear out if they think there is any chance they will lose (pretty often). That is all.

Agreed on lock.
