I'm not sure we can qualify the XP you gain from observation as "good" but I agree it's no more boring than killing x mobs.

I totally disagree with that statement.

Good point and I realize that it's probably not a good idea to remove the XP source coming from observation. But I definetely would get rid of the Edge points because feeling competitive in PK is, for me, a big part of the fun I get from this game. But the tought of having to look and do the same thing over and over to get some edges in order to be competitive in PK just bored me to the highest point.

I'm giving a shot at a character who will not get bored trying to get edges and honestly, if I feel I can't have my share of PK win without edges, it certainly will be a motivation for me to give a shot at another mud.
