PVP in Powerplay should give 15 merits

Probably already discussed but I think it is strange that when killing an opposing faction in there controlled or expanded territories or even defending in your own dont give the 15 merits you get for killing NPC.

Maybe you should not award it against new players (mostly harmless or harmless) to avoid newbie killing but the other players that are in open sign for some kind of PVP.

I wont change the fact that killing NPC will be easier but would add a small reward (specially for defending).

My 2 credits :)

You should have more than 15, it should be something like 150. That would make the border zones a lot more fun.

(Well it would if everyone didn't then disappear in to solo. Sigh.)

Merits aside, there are now a lot of players previously clean, who have massive bounties on their heads in certain systems :) :)

Very easy to exploit for factions like test, goons etc. Shoot your own members in cheapest ship for merits, then reap the profits.

I'm pretty sure just farming npcs will lead to similar results. With 2 or more people they'd be better off doing it separately in solo than teaming up for this exploit.

Actually I was thinking a bit and thought of a system.

You could get a % of the merits point you make your enemy lose.

Not sure what amount but say you kill a guy in your system who had 300 merits and you get 20%: that makes a 60 merits for you, you deserve it because you stopped a 300 merit to undermine your system. Would also avoid exploit. If you are in a wing, the points are shared (like bounties).

I got killed with more than 300 merits points I didnt bring back, can tell you it hurts a bit to loose all you have been working for the last hours (more than the 1.1 mil to your cash).
