I'm not familiar with the Cabal system at all, no. Perhaps I should look into that.

I said I understand PKing is part of the game, but seriously, is there any role-playing at all in here? CF advertises that role=playing isn't just encouraged, but required. I understand it's hard to enforce, but still.

In response to just "learning to PK others". I still find it hard to PK someone as a warrior with little more than basic equipment when going up against someone 3 or 4 levels higher than you. The getting back on your feet part is what's frustrating. I've been PKed several times before now, but was able to regain most if not all my equipment, which makes getting back into it easier. It's hard to run around Thera trying to reoutfit yourself when people just hunt you down and kill you right away.

I guess when it comes down to it I'm just disappointed in the lack of role-playing and indescrimiate PKing. I'm looking for a world I can immerse myself in and role-play my character. If I want to go around killing as many people as I can, I'll play any host of shooter games for PS3 or Xbox.
