With several of my latest characters, I've engaged in PvP without thinking as to my subdual setting, and rudely found out that I start off on full damage, not subdual. While it's a simple matter to switch to subdual and I should probably remember it, and I also expect that there's a good reason why you start off on full damage, in the interests of PvP safety, I'd like to request that characters start off on subdual damage mode, if it is possible. I think it would ultimately be more suitable.

Having raised this before, I was under the impression it was already the case -- or at least, used to be (and I know it was with my last PC).

Somewhat related, I wouldn't mind if the system message told you what mode you shift from, not just to.The fact that it does not has caused me a lot of frustration.

You start out in Subdual mode already, not sure how that happened.

ExileStrife You start out in Subdual mode already, not sure how that happened.

Yeah. All my characters start on Subdual for sure.
