Should have stayed gone then.

One more reason not to play game.
Your feels being hurt doesn't justify a rather pathetic attack. It makes you look like a whiny baby.

Maybe kicking to counter multibash and stuff would be okay, but based on the logs posted, the stun mobol seems excessively punishing.

Yea I can’t really see the reasoning behind the stun. It’s entire function is based on abusing a stun over and over which is…just no.

For the longest time I’ve always been against any sort of instantaneous mob effects. Be it channeling, charging, stunning, even fear honestly. It’s unproductive towards any sort of pk. I get that we want to curb the effect of warders smashing city heads without downing of rewards.

However, I’d look at rather downing the rewards for now, and making WVD self-cast only in the future. Sure, coding, but this is the best solution and in the long run functions as a better fix that doesn’t affect pk as much as this.

As it stands now I won’t be chasing into keep anymore, because I’ll just be pingponging around stunned. Made even entering Ruined Keep pointless in that regard. I’m sure a bunch of DS think this is great but let’s talk about all of the cities that stun you and don’t allow dlines ;)

(Hint: there aren’t any)

Still don’t understand the changes. The people who are being idiots and saying “city heads are too easy” need to realize they aren’t doing a city head. They are 4 rooms from Blight. Make the city head stronger and with this stupid dung if you want but just general zones should remain untouched. Give all the city heads full abs no loot armor and no loot malfeasor damage weapons. Is it really so difficult to make the game less random Mobol damage and more controlled damage so changes aren’t so dramatic and players can actually plan and strategize how to win? This kind of change seems very poorly thought out.

Also, we need to identify the problem we are having. If it’s city heads - you clearly have solved jack dung. This log and my log are just us PKing and it being unfairly ruined by mobs. If you want it harder for city heads throw in 10 more dreadguards in the room or outside or buff up the support mobs or set up an angelmar-like reinforcement patrol. So many better options than random Mobol damages.

If you’re trying to make safe zones for dark side during PK, then you have succeeded.

:!: :!: :!:

That's the thing. Doors are gone from city-heads. Make them no channel or harder or call mob. Hell, leave in a buildable patrol without the emote and stuns. Do whatever's been done with Silvak. Imms can be forgiven for trying something out, but the only players that co-sign stuff like this have zero perspective.

Patty seems hilariously overtuned, agree with davor, buff city heads to the level of LS cities and cityheads. Where you cant just stroll in with 4 and projectile it to death or multibash it.



That said I don't feel sorry for you that it's chortlesnorfling up your cityhead attacks after the verbal assault we recieved yesterday from Draz for just trying to defend our clan heads.

You guys need to check your level of entitlement because quite frankly its disgusting.

Just a further note on this patrol;

We've pkd at it twice now - where it has lagged the entire game.

At least one DS - Lugubrious - had his link drop every single time someone entered patrol room as far as I could tell; I got hit by multisecond lags on multiple occasions.

It also didn't just stick to the patrol, once it had been triggered we had some bearish chase us - and one bearish hitting us with noone in the patrols room made for huge lags spikes every single combat round

I'm unsure what verbal assault is being mentioned above - I have no issue with you guys defending your cityheads, I have zero respect for anyone who doesn't defend one that IS defendable without being a DT. I have, and will continue to have, huge issues with people who literally wait for entire days to spring traps using discord to bring on what can only be described as smash groups. Hilariously I was invited. If I personally attacked you, called you loathsome, idiotic, or useless, thats a comment on the out of game actions, rather than anything done ingame.

Hammer swings for nail, misses, breaks wall instead.

Nail says hammer too big. Obviously.
