The current pvmp system problem from the start was that it was designed as a alternative end game content. Since the implementation to the LI system, creeps tend to get a lower hand on freeps. Therefore the common stratagy is to "zerg" in order to get any meaningful results in a fight. Since then it has become a shuffle fest of "Balancing" freeps and creeps.

Here is some changes that I would suggest to fix the current pvmp:
  1. First and foremost is the performance issues. If this is not done first then other changes to the pvmp will be pointless. Ideally two to four full raids in a close proximity without crashing the server will be great. This includes removing mounts/cosmetic pets in the pvmp zones and removing unnecessary terrain/nps that may cause performance issues.
  2. Creeps/Freeps need a major changes. Creeps having a handful of skills at rank 1 will always be squished by a freep at rank 1 in layman terms. Since the current cap is at 140, freeps will have skill/combos/rotations that turn low rank creeps into a pile of goo in seconds flat. Ideally a creep is a dark mirror of a freep class. Wargs = Burglars, Blackarrows = Hunters and so forth.
  3. Give creeps a trait system similar to the freeps. Going up in a rank will grant the creep skill points to progress and enhance the abilities.
  4. Revert the cap to level 50. Freeps will scale down to the max stats of a level 50 character. This way low level players can enjoy the fun and not be subjected to the terrible level scaling currently.
  5. Siege warfare: Add siege equipment such as battering rams and a door to all the keeps. That way it prevents zerging in a fort.
  6. A new creep class: The freeps have four new classes to play with since the Shadow of Angmar. A new creep class would do wonders.
  7. Insensitive players: new or updated rewards. More exclusive titles and cosmetics for both freep and creeps.
  8. Make creep classes free to all players.


These are Ideas and suggestions. I really don't expect any at all to be implemented at some fashion. I am really hopeful that some changes will come soon. Right now pvmp is dead on my server and I really don't want to regrind/transfer on a new server.
