Doors unlocked by religious symbols

That's not what I was saying, G. I know you're perfectly capable of ganking someone for their symbol. I think my post was more unclear than yours -- the point was that joining a faith simply for a single symbol when there are several such doors didn't improve the situation.

I'm with Gilgon on this one, I don't think religions should get religion only areas or hiding places that require a symbol to enter and exit. And if they do, then there should be ways for those not of the faith to enter still whether it be by adding symbols to NPC's in the game. Or changing the existing places so that there is a quest to enter or a backdoor that is a little more difficult to make your way through but still allows entry to others.

If a player needs to hide behind an impenetrable door then he/she has already lost. Parallel in newbness only to those who log out to avoid pk. However, I firmly believe that sacred EQ should only be accessible to the players belonging to that faith, there is no reason another player would want access to these rooms other than to grief someone else. All other symbol accessible rooms - fine. I know there are certain trainers locked behind symbol rooms that others could benefit from.

Sacred gear should be protected, and largely is. I realize it could be hoarded, but most people don't roll that hardcore D-bag. There are -tons- of interesting places locked behind symbol-only rooms.

In principle, I am against symbol-only locked doors. There might be a few allowable instances, but it sounds like there are a lot more of them out there than I realized.

I can only think of a very select few places that are only unlockable by symbols. Some that unlock by symbols are pickable! I'm missing out a ton I guess

There are a few city locations that are very easily accessible that can be locked/unlocked on both sides only by faith symbols.

As long as these places are not no-summon rooms, I am ok with them.

I'd prefer they are no-summon so people couldn't summon you in there without chance to be rescued

Yeah, cause if you get summoned and don't spam "quaf recall" you stand a chance in other places
