Specter

Yea it's because of them that some skills got nerfed in the past, for example bolts spam rate, spiral pierce, bowling bash etc ... so I think FS needs either a server side delay, or needs its damage reduced. Like you said, by itself its not OP but its close to it... but with Song of Lutie / Apple of Idun the damage gets pumped like crazy, ninjas can 1 hit my LK that has 450k hp, gr + tao and skoll ray rest in pepperoni.

Or maybe add a new questable weapon that enables overcharge for all classes, i like the idea to help new players, +1.

Im speaking from my point of view, and I always see the same people abusing this things, but you and Danger said the same thing, so I'm guessing I was wrong about the fact that nobody gets banned. Then again, this issue has to be taken more seriously and players need to understand that this is not "okay" or that they can do it because everyone else does, because honestly that's the way it is now. Everyone's on each other's throats acussing people of cheating when they cheat themselves and they make those "Revenge reports" Danger mentioned but that's as far as it gets.

I'd like to know the opinion of other GMs and players too, specially if you are against this or you think there's better ways around the one I suggested.

+1, I think this has to be requested in a ticket though

Hey danger, thanks for taking the time to reply, I'm not saying videos should stop being done, it's the best way to find cheaters in my opinion too. I know Harmony might give more issues than fixes, that's why I recommended the "GM P0l1c3 team", I'm pretty sure there's more than just me who want to make this server a better place, back when I used to be in the GM Team i didn't make any bias'd judgement, i pretty much banned my friends more often than anybody else since they were the "trouble makers" of the server back then. What i'm trying to say is, there must be more than just one person that can judge without being unfair. And a short term fix is better than nothing, but if this is done it has to be continued so people stop abusing. 3rd party programs are rampant, everyone in the server thinks it's alright to cheat because everyone else does, I get your point but I honestly think something like that HAS to be done, if it doesn't work then just dissolve it and let everything be the way it is now.

"Something definitely needs to be done, I just can't exactly say what would solve the problem without collapsing the server at this point." I don't see the fun part of that quote honestly, it's the truth. But thanks for your very detailed opinion and concern leroywee.

qu3k . +1 to Maii's suggestion, nerf FS to 100~120% damage and increase kunai damage, it's too op as it is now.

I'm tired of the lack of discouragement there is on 3rd party programs in the server, NOBODY gets banned, all the responses you get from the team is "Record a video yourself and we'll take care of it". I've heard lots of times of people reporting suspicious activity and nobody's ever punished for it There should be a specific group of GMs for this, searching whenever they have time any suspicious player and recording them. I don't say people should get permanently banned... because we all know that would cause an outrage since more than 80% of the players use something. But a weekly ban at least, or 2 weeks ban as a warning, and then permanent ban as a 2nd offense, so that it makes those who get banned think twice about cheating again next time. I wish people stop using this things and ABUSING them too, because sometimes its ridiculous, you see people in pvp room with 3 autofollow pallies that never die, come on guys. Im just talking as one of the few honest players left here, that is called cheater whenever someone can't kill me and im 100% legit, I even got acussed by a GM who had no proof while I was asking ONCE MORE to give this problem some attention. There's so many people frustrated about this, some just quit, others start cheating too because "everyone does, so why not?" and the vicious circle continues. All this cheating enforces the fact that the guild with the highest ammount of players will always be the strongest, skills and mechanics of the game are pretty much useless, strenght means numbers nowadays, not quality players. Back then you could take out big guilds with a small group of people, but now it's nearly impossible because people barely die and all they're doing is scratching their bellies while a program does 80% of the job. This might be an useless post once again, or it will get ignored, or they will say "st0p cry1n meing u jus a nub". That's all, hope some people take the time to read and comment their opinions.

PvP ladder has went through this before, there was a time where parties weren't allowed because this same situation was happening in the server, always the same ppl dominating the ladder and hoarding the tokens for themselves. Honestly, I see the point in both sides, for the people that don't have big parties it really sucks to see a 15-man party waiting for you in pvp room during Happy hour, for the big parties it's not easy to find so many people willing to help you ladder... Maybe add another pvp ladder, where parties are not allowed and it has an extra prize list (just the same as normal pvp ladder). Only problem would be feeders there, but then again even if its without parties, people who are friends will still gang you, but yea, at least with no infinite devotion. Just my thoughts on it, since dragonist armors require 30 pvp tokens each, might be useful to add some more weekly pvp tokens in the market, or in someone's pockets.

Bomb is blocked by pneuma not gtb

Thana fs, would've never thought that worked lol. I speak from experience fighting against ninjas, i've never used one myself in a high rate server, so i can say im a half ignorant :P

Im surprised nobody commented on the ways to counter FS besides the neutral reductions... and those are pneuma, noxious cards and defender on pallies since this skill is ranged after all (mid-range) Also another way to counter FS ninjas (if they don't 1 hit you that is) as a bio, is placing Bombs on the floor and standing on top of them... then just wait for the ninja to FS and kill himself, it's pretty much like clown's unchained serenade but a bit harder to hit. I think the FS build is okay as it is, if i don't use 2 rays on bio (270k hp) I get 1 hitted by FS most likely... idk about rising their damage with kunais.. because forcing some classes to 2 ray and then thana kunai their butts with high damage too... might be a bit too much. UNLESS the damage with kunais is really low, then it might need a buff. Like Jordan said, with clown's song of lutie, FS is pretty scary. Edit: The spam might need some tweaks, I agree with kaza that some people spam waaaay too fast.

Please dont suggest more mammonite damage, I'm already OP.

Good point, +1 then

Very interesting man, just one question, are you sure that blitz beat will hit the emp? As far as I know, skills just miss on the emp. The rest of the things you said are on point, i remember i broke a few times on my sniper (on thana + 2 glooms + frenzy).. years ago though xD

I really like the idea, but considering the situation of our server, an item that heals 1/4 of your HP will only benefit people using "autopot". Unless you mean 25% max HP heal by using potion pitcher, that's a different story (still OP now that i give it a second thought)

I'm gonna blow your mind, I've been inactive for a couple of months too! xD

Sinx cursed 2.6k LK halb 1.2k Priest bless JACKET 2.3k Eir's book 1.2k
