fix would be just to make it so you can''t build a vgate or gate within X of cave entrance and exit to prevent bug abuse.

this is kinda cringe, the fact that they could walk through a visitor gate, while in combat, which then trapped them there lol

not a reason to nuke anyone, but a reason to fix your fucking game jorb lmao

Also, did they get visitor debuffed? why didn't they jump the bench and attack you?

there are dozens of other things you can easily block a cave entrance with, like people have pointed out before, it won't fix anything
everyone is getting hung up about the vgate thing, but this trap could've been set up with anything else that you couldn't quickly break

the literal second when u enter the cave you are presented with visitor status, although u can walk back if you dont move, but if you move a inch, you basicaly dead, we cant jump bench cause perms or combat, dont remember


Edit: the same ppl that do that are the ones that cry about lack of pvp :lol:

@strpk0
Still not the point of the post, it's not about quickly or slowly or even being able to get out like in these case.
There will always be someone who finds creative ways of using the system.

Point for this topic is to see if the game mechanic is intended to allow visitor gate on cave entrance which traps you.


What would happen if the aggro ed characters were not KO-d? ( really asking, would they stay there forever? )

The aggro'd character will be there forever, even after you log out. You cannot leave thru the visitor gates, hearth back or commit crimes (otherwise why didn't they just tresspass across the bench like the one being chased did?) The only person who can even use chairs are the people with access to claim rights.

I think my bait was pretty good. I hit my head on every cliff/tree in the forest and tried to take some damage

This dude is so brazen he posts proof of his own bug abuse.

Nice trap.
Dont see anything outrageous than some people falling for a obvious shit tier trap. Not even close to reasons/abuse why factions/groups have been nuked previously if that was the goal of this thread here

I don't think the goal is to use dev nuke like it's a weapon against people we don't like. It's for the devs to get the chance to look at a possible bug abuse and let them decide.
