Why would anyone want to pk you guys?
Re: Why would anyone want to pk you guys?
Well obviously. You are comparing actual battle logs to a thread whose sole purpose is just OUCh stabs. And as stab is a one shot thing in most cases, it’s compiled a lot of pages over many years
Re: Why would anyone want to pk you guys?
I agree completely with Jaster. When I was younger and played the game I wanted everyone to play by my standard of balls to the walls. It’s important to note that everyone plays for different reasons with varying levels of skill. EQ and achievements come differently for people. Once I realized this I started enjoying the game more. I don’t use discord and I don’t post as much as I used to. I enjoy the game for how it is and try to express my opinions on a global level I.e. rogues ruining PK experience overall for reasons Rark very nicely laid out. I also am not against rogues and am ok with them doing a good amount of damage at a high % success similar to weaves but balanced by their melee potential.Jaster wrote: ↑Sat Oct 16, 2021 2:06 pmisabel wrote: ↑Sat Oct 16, 2021 11:48 amFind even ONE pk log from 2021 that compares to any of these I pulled out in 4 minutes of skimming AoW from a time when pk was actualy exciting.

The problem with this statement and example is it’s merely your opinion on what you find exciting. You are trying to get everyone to meet or exceed your expectations when the reality is what makes this game great is it bring different escapes for everyone. Other games are one dimensional where this one can be created and explored in a multitude of directions. Unfortunately, people including yourself want it all the same or just the way you like it, which would make it just another game to lose interest in. I never understood this, but that is why we are all different and get enjoyment in other ways on the game.
Re: Why would anyone want to pk you guys?
Similar views especially on 'each to their own' . I have seen a tenancy more than historical I think to debate and argue to create a 1 dimensional skill set approach to PK. Which I don't like. Normally when there is a balance issue you see everyone flock to that inbalance and it becomes obvious. I don't see that with rogues.Kryyg wrote: ↑Sat Oct 16, 2021 4:08 pmI agree completely with Jaster.

I've said it many times now. Only main issue Mmud is playerbase numbers. While it's remarkable the activity of the imms and players on improving the game, I think the majority of the effort should be on attracting *new* players (the next generation).
Re: Why would anyone want to pk you guys?
No issues with each to their own. The only issue is when 85% of pk becomes stabber dominated which has been a recent trend. Even that is fine, since people can just do something else.
