PK System

[eXile]

Imake this post in hoping of changing the system. i pk in lhz and for_fild and I've seen/felt that many people comes, attack you and then into warp portals or warp away (for example a champion comes, asura you,and warps way and is warp abuse).

What I'm asking for is if it'd be possible to add 10 seconds (like pvp, when you attack someone you can't warp) before you can enter in a warp portal. Like in WoE that says "this warp is unavalible". In that way we could prevent some warp abuse cases.And better chance of ppl not acting as noobs i hope ul look into it

Thank you

No, I like being able to warp around when hunting or training. adding an 10 sec delay to each warp would be ridiculous in my opinion.

[Ethereal]

It may seem like a great idea to some people, but in truth, it's not. Adding a delay to warp will highly annoy players a lot. What about hunting? PK is enabled on those maps, so that means wizards have to have a 10 second delay then warp? It's very irritating. I believe we used to have it at one point (or it was just me on my old server) and I did not find that fun at all.

In the end, you'll just have to deal with the champions/other people who just attack and warp.

P.S. Moved to the correct section.

What about you can warp away without delay, unless you hit someone you have a 10 second delay? :D

That still slows down leveling and hunting.

Example: You warp to an area on your character and your collecting X item. You kill Y monster for X item then you have to wait 10 seconds to warp again. After a while these increments of 10 seconds add up to a lot of time and annoyance.

I'm trying to think of a way to make this work with just players, but I just don't see it working... Sorry.

[Tiago]

No pls. The ''Please wait 10 seconds before trying to log off'' counter thing is already enough nuisance to make me rage.

eXile, as much as I know what you're saying, the other players are right when they say that all players need it for efficient hunting of items that are expended usually very quickly. Look at it positively; these players don't gain ladder kills by killing you.

The way you worded your suggestion, it sounds like you go to lhz to pk. If that's the case, we have pvp rooms. And they're underused, seeing as there is usually more people in for_fild01 than in our pvp rooms. Why ever that is, they're there to prevent people from warping out after killing you.

If you choose to pk on free for all maps, then you have to take the good with the bad, like with everything else.

We're not rejecting this suggestion yet, let's see how it evolves :)

[eXile]

well How abt the command @pk well for ppl who r hunting or power lvling its like if the ppl got this command they won hav delays or will be killed by someone or for newbies who r new nd r basically piked on so if they use this command they can lvl peacefully...and thr wont be any delays for warping or suchh soo wat ull think it wont annoy anyone they can do wat they want and ppl who r pvping can also enjoy no one gets hurt :huh:

@Devotion

lol i don go lhz to always pk well ya i agree with u to a point for efficent hunting cmon its like i and u r in a middle of a duel someone comes kills u and warps away..then comes bak again ur in a duel azuras u and warps away again....well isnt it kind of warp abuse so well if hes got a 10sec delay he wont be taking tht risk of killing u over nd over ...well as far as hunting is concerned MR/Ms.X can walk also for 10secs its not like 10 mins or something tht its gonna totally stop his hunting or lvling anywayz pvp room is empty most of the time ..

i hope somethings donee ^^

[Devotion]

@pk is a nice option, and I think it's been suggested before. I foresee players abusing that in popular pvp areas, but the pvp rooms should be used more frequently anyway. And since this is a PK server, and many come here for that aspect, I don't know if @pk is the right thing.

Keep discussing though, it's a promising suggestion :)

[Rhapsody]

I personally like that if you attack or get attacked by a player, then you won't be able for 3 seconds.

I just don't know how to code it and stuff, and I'd really appreciate if someone from our coders can reply to this question.

As far as I'm concerned, I'm at the idea I stated. I have been since the @warp delay was removed.

[Xtopher]

Well, @pk will definitely be abused. I've been on servers with similar commands and people just switch it off, kill you, then switch it back on so you can't kill them. The only way to stop that would be put a delay on @pk, but then we're going down a slope of delaying things, and people don't like that.

The idea of making a delay that is specific to after hitting a player is nice, but I don't really see how its possible.

Also, I feel a 3 second delay is more plausible than 10.... 10 seconds is a long time in pvp, especially on this server.

[Rhapsody]

@pk if ever, can only be turned on or off in non-pvp areas such as towns.

[Millenia]

Unnecessary. Just make hot-spots non PvP.

That kind of defeats the purpose the hot-spots. People go to lhz and for fild because its a hot pvp spot.

@pk on and off in towns would work.

[eXile]

well lets c u can only use @pk only in cities and not on any fields and lets c u cant spam it more than twice if u try to use it more than twice thr will be a delay of 5-10 mins for the next @pk so tht ppl wont abuse it..

well as of hotspots thor lhz is a lvling ground pro ppl go der and kill newbies a lot and noobs kill ppl who r lvling soo well u guys got to do something and @pk command wont screw up the pk server its jus for ppl who wanna power lvl or hunt or leech basically and most will be not using @pk

Newer players go to thor and LHZ to level while older players wait to pick them off 1 by 1.

[Rayray]

a 3 second delay would do. and it should only be applicable when you are attacking another player or you are being attacked by another player. if this can be coded, then thank you.

[Ryoji]

No delay...

I'd be more for making more specific spots no pvp..

A 3 second delay, especially for a newer player can be more of a hindrance then a blessing.

You don't like being pk'd? Find a new spot, it's a big map.

[Everyone]

we did at one point have the warp delay, it sucked and we begged the admins

to remove it

if you don't want to be PK'd you warp or don't go to a heavy PK area /obvious

[Okanagan]

I believe it is fine the way it is. Leave it as be for now..

[Terroryst]

Didn't we have this before? Might be why it got removed. Their invulnerability goes away after they move or use a skill anyways. Keep a distance from their warp location and they'll have to move to you.

If we did that, players would inevitably find new hot spots, and unless they pick some secluded map, there will be traffic at some point. As for removing PK from popular leveling spots, like lhz_dun03, thor_v03, and for_fild01, that's a possibility.

I thought your stand was that this was a PK server and people should know they could get killed when they warp to maps.

As of the delay, you need to get more complaints for this to happen. That's just how it is in this server.

My stand on the suggestion is still unclear. I only point out factors that could contribute to the end decision. In the end the player choice is more powerful than any one person could say.

[Millenia]

Well I already discussed making thor_03, anthell01, and lhz_dun03 , non-PVP maps w/ Genezues, he seems to liek it. As for for_fild01, that'd be like; deleting everyone's accounts, making the site as a whole go kaboom, shutting down the server, then erasing any existence of fRO. Positive for some? Yes. Negative for most? Yup. Everyone would QQ because NOONE LIKES CHANGE!11111

For_fild01 doesn't really = newbs being killed while they level anyway...
