* R HP:Scratched MV:Weary - Kyr: Scratched >
Don't look at me.


Kyr's eyes seem to gleam with a strange golden light.

Kyr has a few scratches.

*Kyr* is using:
<worn as shield> a silver etched shield
<wielded> the ancient greatsword, Justice

[bash ] eary - Kyr: Scratched >

He wasn't wearing it

Just something he does at times, to provide others a false sense of security. Bit him in the bum this time. Quite amusing really.

Occam's razor - Kyr was lost, forgot to practice ride, didn't think he could ever get by a block in full dodge and got owned trying to just hide like a pansy.

I don't know why people think it's right to dance around this and pretend it is what it isn't when they know what it is. Both this log and the other are neither instructional or entertaining for an AoW post, are not PK in the sense of what people strive for here, and are obviously the characters blatant self-death and donation of equipment. Enjoy the game.
This is not a flame, whine, or meant to be negative but just the truth.

Wasn't aware Kyr was quitting and or donating equipment. If you say so I suppose it's true? Looks to me like he tried to get away and just took a lot of damage quickly got blocked on the run etc.

As for the other log seemed like he tried to bait me into a door and it backfired. Sure tried to get out of it at the end but got blocked and died. Was like a 20 minute fight, but I guess it takes that long to donate gear? To me that's not donating gear but I suppose if you want to take it as that sure. It was definitely not a fun fight for him I'm sure, but it was also quite poorly played in my opinion. I'd of gotten me low at other mobs first, the bridgeguards or the patty on tear road maybe. Neither are super logs but I was asked to post them so I did. If Kyr or Sleven care to chime in and say that's what it was then hey that's what it was right? Not sure why he'd choose me to donate gear to of all people, he's quite popular no?

I don't think he is quitting, i think he has ust has stopped caring so very much and dies more often.

Mezo perhaps it comes down to many of us just don't want to start an unnecessary flame war by outright saying this log isn't really post worthy. It's clear there was nothing remarkable or to be learned from a log like this except to sit in a room and wait for the crazy naked guy to kill himself on you.

However I don't know Canto and this may be his first ta'veren kill and for anyone the first time you kill a ta/se/re it's a pretty big deal even just on a personal accomplishment level. So many variables and I'm really trying not to look at this from the angle of someone who gets an ego kick from a kill that was literally handed to them on a naked silver platter.

Most players know what Kyr is about and they can see this obvious throw. I think the posting may have been poorly thought out and I'm not sure exactly what the point of the log even was. Whatever his reasons I am sure to Kyr they were justified. It looks to me like he's removing some temptation to play the game and perhaps stepping back to play more casually and allowing the bunch of uniques he has be spread through the mud rather than playing favorites?

Edit - 371 year old character, maybe you should know better by now.

Edit 2 - Sorry Caddo!
