**third** time it happens, please someone fix it, i already submited bug report =/
Got to agree with Delgaur. When someone serves, he is under lots of pressure as he is marked as a free kill by FR's. So acting like a bitch and spree-stealing from anyone shouldn't be considered abuse but just getting what they deserve. It is quite annoying tough :)
Well said, Delgaur.
Just get in combat with them - the thiefs thing is all fixed imo!
And dont say its hard to find them :) Just boot your awarness, search kill....then they cant steal. Since the change i have had very little problems with thiefs. Might get one steal in on me, but whats a little gold? Carry a crap load with you, when you know thiefs around is silly. And lets face it, what sane warrior would go to the pellenor with large sums of gold, not expecting to get waylaid by thugs? :) - ok ok - realisticly/playability means we have to sometimes - but you get the point ;p
there was no bug in this kill
Well, I miss the time I did the same thing as Fernando, but of course, in mordor not at MT, I think serving to steal 'for free' its abuse, but you shouldnt whinne about bangs or kills, because you steal everyone, so everyone wants to kill you no matter the lvl, and I really cant understand why everyone whinne when Fernando dies, he is not whinning about the kill, its a bug, just because the bug.
I see your points, but FR thieves do it as much to ERs, perhaps it is more like abusing lack of lawsys rather than abusing serve since it is a two way situation.
Yes Vermond, as far as I see it, 'serve' was implemented so that people who wanted to RP an evil servant of Sauron could do so without being seen as a 'Free Race'. It was not implemented so that a few lowlife thieves could spend their day sitting at MT sp with enter todo steal triggers. This is as much an abuse of the serve command as Dream or others' serving to kill other ERs.
Yeah idiots in charge don't see the problem with going into enemy territory stealing all the gold. maybe it shoud be considered a special and it shouldn't be tolerated to take time to steal from opponents when there is a huge war going on. BUT HEY I ONLY PLAY THE GAME SO WHAT DO I KNOW
*agrees with all previous comments*
Fernando, this is NO BUG. Go train RESIST MAGIC! Should the MUD be changed for you because you don't feel like training??? If ERs can't train RM, try to fix that instead.
And who ever told you you should be unkillable, especially at lvl 12 and in enemy territory???
Please, Ainur, do NOT take into consideration such requests.
Abusing serve? :P
For someone who is abusing serve so badly you sure seem to whine like a bitch about something that isn't even a bug....'You miss Tingol' = round of combat, dumbass.
Kilin, he was only at 64 hp because of the strike. It takes less than a second to drink a vial/phial. Even if he hadn't drunk healing, which would have earned him around 2-3 rounds, he still had a good chance of making it past a BP/Osgiliat in a round. It would have probably mattered.
But yeah, it was on two separate rounds, don't see a bug, although I doubt the bug he was talking about is fixed, not that it matters... takes 2k to train RM.
Fernando, stop complaining, level up, switch profs, train rm. pleanty of things for you todo to prevent this... oh yea dont go into FR lands either..
Yeah, it's two seperate rounds.
Not that it would have mattered. You had 64 HP, and are a thief. So you were going to die from the backstab.
Why waste everyone's time whining that YOU'd have gotten away if it was counted as a special attack. Because you wouldn't have made it that far before the backstab killed you.
Well to be honest, HAHAHAHAHA.
And to fix your problem, train RM.
Suddenly a blue mist forms around you and gets absorbed
by the powers of Tingol's staff!
Do: Commands completed.
HP:64 EP:150> GON
Rua chats with his party.
--==You miss Tingol.==--
Tingol chats with his party.
You are attacked by Rua!
Without warning, Rua stabs you from behind!
Looks likes two different rounds of combat, so I don't think the two special attacks rule applies...
Whys this a bug? If this is changed, then should not the same apply to ALL weapons?
The combat thing applys to prof abilitys, no?
