In order to prevent abuse of the system, guards will only get paid credits for selling the gear of the player they’ve killed, not for the kill itself, additionally, in order to prevent economical exploitation, the amount of guard credits paid in exchange for a piece of gear is randomly selected from a range of values each time it is sold and is based on the level of enchantment of said gear piece. For example:

Protection 3 Armor Piece = 25 - 60 credits

Protection 5 Armor Piece = 100 - 200 credits


Additionally, designing a proper application process which includes questions like:

“I understand abuse of the guard system is taken very seriously and any offenses may result in the immediate permanent suspension of my account or any associated accounts.”

“We view you on the same level as a member of staff. We count on you to uphold the integrity of the gameplay experience and expect that you will set aside your own personal interests for the good of the server”
