> How about unlimited looting of 31+ corpses over 30, and under 30 you can't loot over level 30 corpses? This would prevent the giant hoardes of level 26 level sitting pkers from getting the eq they use (that's how most of them get started), level the playing field a bit, and give us at least a chance to keep the gear off those we kill, and maybe even a chance to reduce the % of "Get all corpses" that are unnecessary. Everything I said is contrary to this. It is a *good* thing, in the end, that lowbies can loot. It makes sure that equ is redistributed. Because really low players generally can't hold onto equ, and if they pk too much (under level 25) they die and lose the equ that way. No, I would not have a 31+ system like you suggest. I repeat what I wrote the first time.
What's more, let's face it, you really only have lowbie looters taking the loot from your corpses when you are in Galadon, New Thalos, the Eastern road and perhaps a few other obvious places. If you go and find your victims where they are levelling, etc, it is much less likely your kills will be looted.
