:D I have to smile, this brings back more nostalgic moments.

None of your replies contributed to the thread, pretty much +1 posts and during all that time you chose to continue reading/posting in this thread and NOT play the game. Aren't you judgmental with all your posts yelling using bold text throughout.

I never said Hardcore was hard, YOU did, you perceived my post saying that, yet you could not even read. As for me replying to Grammar, spelling, that is about the third time I have done that in over Thousands of posts I have read/replied to in over 10 years playing LS or posting in General sections on JSP. Get better ammunition, you think I am belittling people, what have you done by replying?

Another fly in the web, or fishing has been great.

Nostalgic... I like pulling out the weeds in public, make a post more constructive instead of being a weed about it, or just don't read/reply and Play LS

The pure act that you want Resurrection, is a big indicator you either die a lot or you can't handle hardcore so it is a Crybaby topic.

Also i have been using BOLD in my posts for 13 years so lol?

Please read further before making a vote and point out your opinions... Thank you

#1: Pay a fee (either core) to resurrect a dead character keeping their "Prof Ranks" intact upon death. BUT, they lose the items they are wielding.

I Would be against this, the most obvious reason is that it is not hardcore if you can keep your Prof ranks when you die this reminds me of a game RotMG they had an item that would allow someone to not die.
Amulet of Resurrection it was a big mistake by the developers to introduce that into the game it sounded great on paper but, it turned a bullet-hell permadeath shooter RPG Dungeon Crawler into a soft core easy mode game It was solved with Money. So i feel strongly against this even as an idea the community is small enough would hurt if more people quit I would say 90% of people play SC and 10% play HC it would seem most people do not like ladder slasher as a hardcore game seeing as most do not play it.

#2: The Fee has to be paid within 48 hours of their Death AND the character has NOT BEEN DELETED (Hardcore specifically).
As said above FG Would make HC easy and lose the shine it has i do not play HC LS, i did a climb along time ago and it was not that fun for me, I like to mindlessly play LS when watching YouTube or something else.

Okay... for HC, it is a death + loss of gear, as for SC it is death & loss of gear but they keep their Prof ranks.
( Why would anyone play SC if its just going to be HC in Disguise? )
Yes HC Death you lose items and player. But why would you even play this game if you like to play as a Softcore player and now all the sudden you die and lose your gear? Yes you put forward the idea of *Paying a Fee* To keep your prof but the gear is more important then prof in my eyes. As for the retaining the Prof in Hardcore mode it just sounds like you are butthurt over dyeing or something maybe you lost something in HC?

Personally... I would like more constructive criticism to this idea versus just a simple "NO / Hell NO" vote, think about it, with the introduction of D2R and other games with "Seasonal" platform(s). We (single game players) can NOT make funds to complete with other players playing Ladder Slasher while making forum gold on other games. (Note: this is the only online game I play other than Facebook Slots or playing Solitaire/Chess/Minsweeper etc on my PC). No competition for this 15+ year old game on JSP site.

So many changes to character(s) limit and nefs to HUNT for items etc has made this game a chance game to finding drops. (Note: when playing, your only attention is to this game, other games like D2 you can use bots to play while playing this game... think about it)
Yes, it is called RNG also know as Random Number Generator to roll the items most ALL games have it, Luck plays a big part in getting something also time played per day. There are bots that play Ladder Slasher and have been going for weeks at a time.
( if you want more info on this send a pm i will send you a link to them. )

EDIT: nulled my vote as I see either benefit(s) for either core depending on the player and their play style!

Not sure... HC your loss is Character + Proficiency + Items. Now for SC the ONLY lose is a % of Experience & Proficiency, but you keep your GODLY gear to continue.
This is how Hc/Sc is played in most all games. Sc players will get a Exp or some other Punishment but keep the gear/time spent on the player.
And Hc is you gain the Prestige of not dying and bragging rights Nothing really more most people also play for the excitement of death.

Simply put.. for SC... it means jack shit for a death because your godly gear does NOT DISAPPEAR... only Prof / Exp count, that is why you can FARM on SC using the "DEATH FARMING" crap while using ML gear and your gear remains. It is not rocket science or brain surgery... SC does NOT LOSE items... AND IF you realised... the option is ONLY available to those that will pay a fee and lose the items FOR SOFTCOCK PLAYERS... it is OPTIONAL.
Yes Softcore gets to keep its gear because it is softcore not hardcore, I would not be opposed to stricter punishments for when you do die on softcore ( like you lose a Rank in a skills or you lose levels *( Would stop a lot of death farming ))

FUCKING OPTIONAL FOR SOFTCOCK PLAYERS... 48 Hour limit.
Even thought you say it would be optional I would still be against it.

How about you lot start by opening your EYES and READING it more... OR are you all on crack... even those voting without a post... DANG... 50+ years later, NOBODY on this site actually has a reading skill above entrance level.

EDIT: for late comers... #2 explains the 48 hours etc... it is optional and you DON'T have to comply within that time by just playing that character within the 48 hours which nullifies the effect.

To me it sounds like you dislike how SC items are forever or until shrined *( At lest its harder to shrine now )

But You want Softcore players to lose there items like Hardcore players do and your telling me this is not a crybaby topic?
Anyways there you asked for my thoughts.

The tl;dr
hardcore is meant to be hard.
softcore is meant to be easier.

What you're proposing is to make softcore hard/Risky with a permanent gear loss. ( Witch would defeat the purpose of playing softcore )
But that would just make SC into HC so your argument/idea is to remove softcore from Ladder Slasher.
And making HC easier. ( For people who are willing to pay FG )
