Post by sami1337 »

how is lp awarded upon knockout and death of a player?

You get LP when you KO a player, I don't remember getting any (At least, any I could see from a LP gain pop-up) when I killed someone.
You see a masterful engraving by Blaze. On it is Blaze, bears, boars, and foxes. Blaze is striking down the bears. The boars are screaming. The foxes are in a fetal position. The image relates to the return of Blaze in the late winter of 2009.

It works such that you get 1% of the total amount of the LP that the character you knock down has collected, ever. It is given when knocking out a player; not when killing him. It is not at all certain to remain that way, though; we really just wanted a placeholder until we could figure out something more reasonable (which we haven't been able to do yet).

By the way, I just changed this, so that experience is, instead, given when actually killing a player instead. I realized that it was too easily abused for power grinding otherwise.

If, by "I realized" you mean "Jorb told me", sure. ;)
