I thought this thread was for PvP on non-PVP TLE or Origins servers 'cause why would you need duels, battlegrounds or "something for PvP" on a PvP server which is presumably ALL PvP.

there are fun things we used to have on the old Nagafen, like open zone battles where you could have PvP in big groups and win PvP coins.
This server is not much of a PvP server anymore, I's virtually empty, so I think it might be at some poin nice if we could move on to another TLE server.
I think Varsoon would work.
the new Origen server is not an option, because it's not even connected to the other servers and it's stuck on Vanilla.
There is more PvP on this forum than on the actual PvP server. That should tell you all you need to know about the state of EQ2 PvP.
It was a good run, but unfortunately without new blood, EQ2 PvP will never thrive. It's the same group of people who have been fighting each other for over a decade. Time to let it go.

sorry I did not pay attention to where I am.
In regards to regular servers Live or TLE, the idea I think is that people would like to have an outlet for their PVP fix even if there is not a dedicated server, meaning some kind of place where that can be done without disrupting the regular activities of such a regular server.

On OG EQ, I played on Sullon Zek, after briefly trying Rallos Zek, and loved it (this is at the exact same time as Fancy). Afterwards, I played WoW BG's, earning Sergeant, Grunt and Field Marshal titles for different characters (3 to be exact). After that, I played DAoC, earning the title "Baron" on one character. Then, I went on to play Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning and earned the title "The Psychopath". I'm familiar with PVP in MMOs.
Early on in my EQ2 career, @Sunlei suggested I try EQ2 PVP and I almost instantly regretted it. I have no idea what it's like now, but back when I started, people poopsocked new players! It was a griefers dream server. I posted in the old forums that the problems with the PVP server were not necessarily DBG's policies but the people playing.
Over the years, as an IT developer (web and web-technology included), I've found the Internet to represent the absolute worst in humanity. If that is the case, EQ2 PVP players represent the worst of the worst, on average. I would have encouraged their mother to kick them out of her basement, but I don't know how a 50-year old sociopath would actually make it in today's world without being obliterated immediately.
I'm holding back on my assessment, wanting to be kind enough to not hurt people's feelings, btw.

there are very nice people who enjoy PvP. the reason they want a little fun on regular servers, if only duels is because they love this game just as much as you do , ( I think you do ).
the problem is those PvP servers don't last long.

I was under the assumption that it was specifically about the PVP TLE server, since that's the forum on which it is posted. I would put this in the "Suggestion" section if the OP wanted to have duels on LIVE servers included (to be honest, I don't know if it's possible or not, since I haven't tried it)
Duels exist on live servers. Most of the focus on this thread was about fixing it on origins because it's bugged. Even that has caused an insane over-reaction.

we used to have duels on any server, I never duel so I did not know that does not work anymore.
It's sad pvp is so gone that the last post is days old. Darkpaw what is the harm merging the last 4 or 5 pvp servers and letting all the players sort it out?
Also not sure why duel doesn't even work on origions server? Be kind-off fun to watch some fights!!
Never liked duel because the circle is way to tiny but duel IMO was best/easy way to test what my spells really did when I play 2 accounts at same time.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year world!!

People just don't go there anymore because there are no people left to PvP against.
