that's got to be the best pirate I've ever seen
Tedium is a feature.

Formerly known as DaMaGe. Been playing on and off since World 3 in 2010, but my old account no longer functions.

I love how 99% of the comments are about what he should have/have not done to save his ass and 1% about the game breaking multibox that was used to kill him.

And even if the drowning issue is fixed, the multibox knarr deathsquad still remains a thing. I guess people shouldn't be given the benefit of custom clients ¦]

It was pointed out early in the thread that it only takes 4 to 5 people on the same boat to do the exact same thing, and it can be people from anywhere, not just one person running a boat of bots. Combat from a boat is just broken.
Opinions expressed in this statement are the authors alone and in no way reflect on the game development values of the actual developers.

Yeah it was pointed out (1%) and the main argument became what the poor guy that died was supposed to do (99%).

But now I see the good point, since the combat on boats is broken then it is accepted to have people with multiboxes exploiting the worst out of it.

I also wonder if 5 people with different reaction and aim could achieve the same result of a bot mathematically aiming and shooting at the same time?

In a boat, it's trivial with melee weapons, and it's been complained about for a long time.

As soon as you're in range all queued attacks for every participant are used at once.

The game strongly promotes either having as many people doing menial tasks as slaves, or alts (energy, combat openings clearing too fast in 1v1s, this, maybe something else), hope issues like this will rise more awareness to this in general.
