Hi,
The idea behind the oil rig has been a place where guys can come to practice PK and have PK fun. Long time ago there were no vehicles and as a nub you had to run through mobs to get to the rig then the rig had big mobs around and you were very lucky if you could even see an oil drop let alone pick one up. "Ubers" who could kill the mobs would fight each other and get oil and kill mobs and such, it was LOTS of fun.
The oil rig was fun!!! Now it is NOT! The oil rig is BROKEN!
Currently there are always 5-10 nubs at the rig standing around picking oil and if anyone comes to try and PK the nubs will get in a vehicle and gather up a lot of mobs and bring them to the rig (mob training) making the players coming for PK fun have to fight mobs not PK. This discourages "ubers" from wanting to go to the rig for PK fun. And the nubs who sit all day picking oil for free get to "freeload" off the game.
First, simple fix is to make the entire oil rig PVP zone a "No Vehicle" zone! Problems solved, nubs can no longer train mobs and the rig becomes a fun place to have PK fun!!!
Second but less important would be to make a static mob on top of the oil spawn area an Atrox Slayer!!! As part of adding this higher maturity mob, the many places where mobs can be trapped around the rig would need to be fixed.
I hope we can do something along these ideas to make the rig fun again!
