Maybe the lowbies, but in PvP nearly all the lvl 50's do.

I never loaded my shield, I only did when I put my combat clothing on after I found out that buffing up without clothing is putting me at a disadvantage. Now I have found my costume in a level 50 armoured version and just get in, buff up, activate my shield (turn on my perp red eye) and I am ready, even holding my own against fully buffed now

So when it's a case of looking like everyone else or looking like the pwn, you should usually choose looking like everyone else. There's a few exceptions to the rule. There's a few noobs that no matter what you're wearing, you'll still kick their sloppy arses all over the Mega City.
I have had better accuracy since I stopped using the propper buffed stuff
Besides, I am an RPer, I dont PvP much which is why I chose to go on Syntax, here I only flag when and where I want to apart from the constructs which is how it is supposed to be on Syntax. I have started a character on Vector and there I will expect to be flagged constantly and I will be in my combat gear a lot more often.

A pvp hotspot is a very different type of pvp style to a whole district being flagged. I'd rather see a district or two be flagged so we can have long chases through different neighborhoods, with the chance of unexpected interference.
RP and PVP are both alive on Vector, if you know where to look. The only problem we have stems from the majority of our population moving over to Recursion to participate in the Vector Olympics, er, Recursion Olympics or from the original migration of almost every large faction from Vector to Recursion. Dark Mavericks and Furious Angels were once very prominent groups of Mervs and Zion, respectively, until they opted to leave.Personally, I've had a hard time stumbling across RP on Syntax and not so hard a time finding it on Vector. Unless all of the RP that takes place on Syntax happens through tells, I haven't really seen anything outstanding. If anything, I'm more bored to tears over the lack of anything to do on Syntax. With the exception of one person who has helped me quite a lot, I find that my life on Syntax is spent slow and boring. While running missions, I am flagged in the hopes that I'll stumble across someone who is my level to fight. If I stumble across someone who is much higher and they kill me, so be it. At least it's something... I'l just kill them when I am 50 in carebear land.

So we decided to check out recursion....our core grinded up and we built up a nice group there....then it was off to Syntax.....we aer also getting stronger there by the day........For those factions/ppl that want to take full advantage of our 'world'.....spread your wings.....grind up on all 3....its a blast to be able to go any server, any time and have a team of your faction mates ready to go for PVP, RP or wotever might float our boat!!!Dark Maverick for Life....Doc!
