Bob Dole Perishes!

[overtyped]

Bob Dole has an intriguing tale to share with all of you.

Once upon a time, just about an hour ago, Bob Dole logged into the game after receiving a Discord notification that our beloved town, Whatever Bay, was under siege.

With a party of four, we set out to confront the raiders, and initially, things were going our way, as one would expect given our numerical advantage. When the raiders retreated to their snekks, I hopped in one, while 2 of our pvpers hopped in another. It looked unloseable.

From Bob's perspective: After engaging in a one-on-one battle with me in the middle of a lake, one of the raiders quickly realized he was outmatched. He leaped out of his snekkja into the water, trying to buy time. Meanwhile I stay in the boat to prevent him from hopping back in to escape.

It looked like a complete victory, we had both the boats locked down, and all that was left was for our pvpers to not leave the other boat, and just wait for me to finish him off.

Our two pvpers perspective from the other boat: Our two PvP experts were still locked in combat with the other raider inside his boat. To my amazement, that raider took his ship to the shore, and decided to disembark. In a puzzling chain of events, both of our PvPers inside the boat followed suit. The raider then simply hopped back into his boat and left our two PvPers stranded on the shore, while he went to aid his comrade, who was stalling in the water.

Perhaps due to the shock of their first true PvP encounter, they were too rattled to hear my pleas for someone to bring a boat and rescue me. It was, regrettably, a "Riparoni" moment, because no matter how long I stalled, help wasn't actually coming.

The end result was three valiant PvPers sitting on the shore, helplessly watching me contend with a 2v1 situation, which eventually led to my unfortunate demise(drowning in the water). I'm confident that this was a valuable learning experience for all involved, and I, of course, have no intentions of quitting. To the fortunate soul who was lucky enough to escape bob doles wrath, turn the tables, and claim my skull instead due to our groups gross incompetence, well done; you earned it. Our group's collective blunders merit some reward.

Normally, I wouldn't share the tale of my demise, but this one had to be the most amusing deaths I've experienced in any world.

Jordan Coles still proud of that one time he bug-raided and wall-hopped to kill Bob Dole.
He will forever cherish it as his greatest achievement!

On the other hand, Bob Dole 1v5'ing Jordan Coles and his crew a day or two earlier and scoring... what was it... 2 permakills? Well, that was just a footnote in his history book.

Wait, it gets funnier. viewtopic.php?p=914069
(Implemented the change to a change in last week's patch mentioned here. The helmsman of a ship can now Right-Click a knocked out passenger and "Maroon" them, evicting them from the ship. This action can only be performed in shallow water. Passengers are no longer auto dismounted when knocked out.)

It turns out if I didn't swim from the snekk, I would have lived. lmaaaaao

water is pretty much the only way you can actually die these days, people are always making the mistake of trying to swim when you can just get KOd and be fine by the next day

jumping in someones snekk is almost always a bad idea because they can hop in and out at will to reduce openings and reset big cool downs etc but the moment you try it they can just hop in and take off

I have an interesting story to tell about a recent gaming experience. About an hour ago, I joined a game because I heard our town, Whatever Bay, was under attack. My group of four confronted the raiders and things initially seemed to be in our favor. However, due to a series of mistakes, our two expert players ended up stranded on the shore. This left me to face a 2v1 situation in the water. Despite my best efforts, I ended up drowning. This was one of the most amusing game deaths I've experienced, and I wanted to share it. Props to the raider who managed to turn the situation around and claim my character's life. Despite the setback, I'm not giving up and see it as a learning experience for all of us.

God bless chatgpt, I'm sorry for your loss, hope you will rise again stronger!
