RPs for healing - more or less than DPS classes?

I am going on very fuzzy memory here, but something in my mind stands out about healers being able to acquire RPs faster/easier than melee/caster DPS classes in RvR (at least at some point in the patch history of DAOC - don't know if this was changed).

Is this true? Do RvR healers typically gain RPs any faster - or slower - than damage classes?

You don't get rps for healing in Old Frontiers. Only for rezzing someone who died to an enemy player.

Yes because they get rp if they rezz someone.
So they get the splitted rp that evryone get in the group + rezz rp at the end of the battle

Oohhhhhh okay. I didn't realize that was a NF thing.

So it isn't possible to get RPs for healing people outside your group on Uth? Or...??

Ok, right. But what if you heal realm mates outside of your group while THEY are killing an enemy... do you get any kill participation credit and receive RPs then? Or do you have to be grouped with them?

just to be clear, healing does not provide rps whether you are grouped or not. the only way you can get rps here is if you (or your group) damage a realm enemy and they die, or if you rezz someone.

This is not entirely true. The other day I healed a Zerker outside of SF in Uppland while a FG of hibs suicided on him and tried to kill him. I healed him and kept him alive while the keep guards destroyed them. I was rewarded a significant amount of RPs for the death of the players. This may have been a bug, or it may only work with guards or PK guards, but it did happen. I was also not grouped with him at the time.
