Which one do you like better?
The old PvP system when it first came out or the new PvP system recently implemented with Capture The Flag?

I haven't touched PvP since CTF came out. I already have my crappy shoulderpad and silent crusade is permanent so i have no rush to replace with potential'd pad.

Nexon defeated 90% of the purpose of PvPing when the potential shoulderpads came out.
The last 10% is basically 130 weapons, rising sun, pocket items, and secret recipes.

This. Besides any fun PvP had was killed when Nexon screwed up the attack multiper. I would like to buy some recipes but as PvP is right now, getting 75 tokens is unbearable for me.

Didn't play during the old system.
The new system is hilarious when you get the "Fist of Doom" item. Getting Quad+ kills with Sanc = lulzy.

That was potentially possible with the old system as it'd like quadruple your attack or make it something absurd. I just don't like how people can just come in and ultimate, die, then ultimate again picking off anyone within range and with below 50% HP.

I did a similar thing by mistake yesterday. Used Soul Driver after some WH Ult'd and it gave me a quad kill.

wait. I thought there was only 1 system? o_o Are we talking about how the players got killed in like 3 hits or the one where everyone lags and you died mysteriously after like 30 hits?

I've played it both ways and it didn't make much of a difference on how much exp I could get from it, though I think it has effected my BP-gain a bit, negatively =/
Recently I haven't PvP'd as much, just gotten bored of the 10min rounds and such, so I'd say I'm mostly indifferent lol
(btw, the completely white title is difficult to read ._.)

Isn't my post in black? White text should be as easy to read as Black Text ._.
Looks like PvP is dead in servers not named Scania or Bera  .

It's in black in here, but in the MapleStory Discussion forum it's normal, so the white text made it look like this thread had no title o.o lol

The old PvP system was way more fun than the new one. I would have probably trained my Paladin and Wild Hunter with just PvP had it stayed the same, but now that everything is screwed up I can't even bare to fight through a full round.

PvP is boring now. I run down, Super Body Blue Aura and Twister Spin when my invincibility runs out. Then I die and do it again.
I don't think anyone prefers this over the original, which was really fun.

this will be a very one sided poll

I didn't play under the 3 hit kill balance, so I can't tell. PvP was pretty boring to me and was lol when I couldn't get more than 2k as a buccaneer. Wasn't cool or exciting. I just thought it was stupid because thieves and mages can just out maneuver any class that can't teleport or flashjump. So as a buccaneer, all i could do was haste myself, which isn't quite as helpful as you might think. At best, i could run and kill a warrior eventually granted that their defenses weren't HOLY CRAP THIS GUY WON'T DIE.
And I mostly DS spammed because demo had no invincibility and couldn't be spammed either, despite it basically having a cooldown within the animation itself.

Yup, the only difference for me is: Booster, go down, cast Air strike. Repeat for 10min.
