I am just catching up on this thread. I have already reported to Elysia and Vampa, and I wanted to report to the players, that I was the one who moved Dreadlord Jerioz to that room. I wasn't fully aware of the PK situation when I did it, and it was definitely not intended to have the effect it did. It was an error, and I apologize to the players who were negatively impacted.

lol @ bambymud, i love it. Can we consider all of the following already said to keep focus on the main discussion.

What is the main discussion?

Started out as pure post death fine wine.

Are master quests supposed to be risk free?

In most of cases SS and DS are lacking people to protect their cities. Thus having channie mob support really helps to make a stand against overwhelming odds, because regular patties/mobs are getting smashed easily and barely able to turn fight in your favour. But apparently there are few problems with that.

Roaming channie mobs are annoying/deadly for solo(low numbers) pk and frustrating for people who take risks and chase inside cities. They are also useless against city raids, because they die in few seconds to big groups. A good solution would be to remove all channeling mobs from streets and put them in a secret room and make city heads to callmob them in times of need. That would help protectors to make last stand at their city head while excluding channie mobs from regular pk.

On that note, oil and gate defenses are on the same level of stupidity as channeling mobs. But I guess this forum already has 100 threads with 100 pages each explaining the problem better than me.

It matters in the current context because your posts, the first, and this one I’m quoting are worthless. They add nothing to the discussion. They are genuinely meaningless.

Sort of like putting a fade in your hands.

Now you can look at it as whining, if you want. Or you can recognize that even after all this time in the game your actual knowledge of how it works and operates is fairly small. This is not an insult. Unlike the rest. I just learned something from Jestin and Weir on the last page after all. There’s always room for improvement.

Since you brought up “safe mud,” Wouldn’t the removal of channeling mobs make the game less safe and thus be a good thing? By your logic I mean. It sounds like we’re at least partially in agreement.

Here’s how I see it and why I said you added nothing to this thread and gave you a hard time.

You’ve got some of the top pkers in the game posting in this thread. All saying similar things and for the most part being subjective. Along comes your derpy stabby fade self, wearing a paper crown with a sticky gold star that you put on yourself, wobbling too and fro on legs that barely work, waving a wooden sword. “This game is too easy! Stop changing things I don’t understand!”

The main discussion is about how certain things in the game are wizkilly (aka you walk in or they walk in and instantly kill you even from high hps) and that is bad for a game that is otherwise great as a strategy game.

I get that for you it's funny etc to randomly die, but for a lot of people to lose their kit/xp/time etc in such a random fashion detracts from the tension, stakes, investment in the game. At best, it equates to - don't go to xyz city or area, which is again no solution since it literally prohibits play there.

Are you a local jester or something? Can't recognize who you are, but definately not one of people who I would take seriously. Your 'gave you a hard time' and laughable insults I merely take as a blabber, nothing more. As for top pkers being subjective, all I can see is an ls lobby doing 'lets nerf something on ds' regular stuff as always and newbs like you riding their tail on that. If you have something to tell me lets move to PMs or better to Borderlands to figure out how to solve your complex of a small man. No need for you to make fun of yourself on public, clown.

p.s. Stabby fade? Hah. May be another 200 years of playing this game will give you deeper insight into game mechanics and fade setups. May be not.

We have static DTs in PK zones. What's wrong, inherently, with roaming DTs? Honest question. They aren't even 100% DT. Know their weaves and know the weather, like Ominas will now be doing.

Reading some of your posts, I'm starting to wonder if you've ever actually PK'd before or if you're perhaps just trolling us? If its the latter, then a job well done and I tip my hat to you good sir.
