Accidentally buying rage

Post by Itanu »

The other day I had a lot of lp and was buying a bunch of skills at once. In the buying frenzy, rage accidentally slipped through.
I think it's a bit silly that you can instantly permanently break your character, without even an "are you sure" bubble.
It would be nice if you could somehow reverse the decision, although of course people would just buy rage for a fight then get rid of it later. Perhaps if you hadn't aggroed anyone it could be reversible, for noobs and fools like me.

It should be a locked/hidden skill you need to click a tab to open. Then your 100% entering criminal skills.

An easy way to do it could include an error condition: "you must have criminal acts enabled to purchase this skill."

One of many reasons the rage mechanic sucks balls right now.

Confirmation window seems fair, should've been there since start of world really.

Criminal acts toggle won't work because next week we get someone who just passed through a claim of someone else who had it on for trespass and we get the same story.

Could always just remove the whole rage mechanic and bring back legacy mechanic. legacy had more players daily than any world in new haven. Make haven great again and re add perma death!

What if you accidentally die because a bear kills you? Should there be a confirmation dialog?

They can, and will kill you.

The same thing that you said was said about players when the new rage mechanics came in effect.
