Nidbane nerf

[NOOBY93]

What, you can't fight without your 9k+ botted stats?

wot? xd

Where did you get the idea that I've ever had 9k+ botted stats? I've never used bots (except paving and barrel filling in w7) and if you ask anyone I've ever played with in a combat environment they will tell you I was always the guy who would manually get a miserable amount of stats then get bored of farming the character and go fight.

The ideas I'm suggesting would actually cripple my style of gameplay, but in my opinion people who grind a lot should not be able to be instakilled by 5 bars of metal???

Not that it's relevant, but in legacy my top stat was like 300 unarmed combat on a character called Reaper, and in world 9 top character had 200-ish attributes.

Grinding a lot shouldn't give you immunity to anything. A game should be about skill, not time investment. If it's a competition in who can burn more time on it the unemployed will always drive out people with actual money to support the development. Also, in that case it's not a game, it's unpaid work.

This simply isn't true. A game should be a combination of skill AND time investment. If the game was solely about skill, the game would just be the "valhalla" minigame where everyone has 5 of the same moves and equal stats.

But let's say the game should only be "about skill". What's skillful about spawning a nidbane?

Infinite character investment, open PvP, permadeath. Pick just two. All three together is bound to fail.

Game is bad!!1

Still not an argument/suggestion.

And you're still retarded.

This.

He didn't say that, thus

And you're still retarded.

is also a reasonable observation, as Potjeh has made a valid point that you completely ignore (on your quest to get carebear bonus for your playstyle).

[NOOBY93]

You're completely delusional. Let's start with this...

No he didn't.

This is not a point. Infinite character investment, open PvP and permadeath is how the game works now, yes. Saying "How the game works right now doesn't work" is not a point, it's just saying "We have problems boys!!!" without even addressing nor attempting to solve any of them.

(on your quest to get carebear bonus for your playstyle).

Carebear bonus?? So there being a mechanic that lets players insta-kill a criminal through walls, claims and everything provided they killed 2 or more people in a fight is alright, but wanting such mechanic gone is a "carebear bonus"?

You clearly don't know what you're talking about. Stick to sucking at moderating forums instead of talking about game mechanics you've never dabbled with.

This thread sole reason for existance is that 'pick three' dosn't work for everyone.

it amazes me how you can use this as an argument in favor of laxer player killing without blushing.

Ad hominem. Tells me you're out of arguments.

[NOOBY93]

That is a problem that is solvable by ANY OTHER WAY than making a mechanic that does "hurr durr mine 10 bars of metal and instakill a 2-year-of-work character xdddd"

I'm not contradicting you, but it amazes me how you can use this as an argument in favor of laxer player killing without blushing.

The problem is being a laxer player is easier and much less time consuming than being an Ozzy who doesn't go out of his house and spends all his thinking power on what he will do in Haven.

People who work this hard to stay relevant SHOULD be able to dominate casual players in some way. Maybe not completely instakill them as it is now, but some way, sure. Nidbanes are not a good idea as it just discourages people from doing what they would otherwise want to do, AND makes alting a good idea.

I already addressed what jorb wrote. I have nothing more to say to you except to fuck off out of a thread you don't know anything about because you don't know anything about it and are not making valuable points.
