So I had my first encounter with NPC humping last night. One of my guildies tried to turn in a quest and flagged himself and was pummeled by the guards.
Even though we are on a PvE server, I thought....let's settle this with a PvP solution. So we all geared up and went in to take out the griefer. Unfortunately, since he had on great PvP gear, most of our initial attacks were resisted and the guards and robots destroyed us within moments.
The problem...whenever you are killed by a NPC guard, you suffer armor damage which is expensive. That is where the problem lies. There is no good PvP solution. The only thing I could think of was to kill all the guards, then kill the griefer, but that would turn it into a PvE solution for PvP. And frankly, we suck too much to pull off that stunt.
I feel that a PvP solution to a PvP problem should not involve armor repair. That is why I think this situation obviously falls under "griefing" and the perps should be banned, even on a PvP server.
So, in the end, we got wtfpwned, took our lumps, and moved on to grinding dailies to pay off the repairs. We did have fun trying, so all was not in vain.
