my anti-ksing idea

pilipinas24 · Post by **pilipinas24** » Fri May 04, 2007 11:38 pm

this is my idea on getting rid of kSing afk grinders.

Once player A attacked a certain mob and player B attempts
to killsteal, Player B will first get somekind of warning
I thought of maybe a countdown timer displayed above Player B's char
giving him 10 seconds not to kill-steal again. If under this 10 seconds,
Player B still attempts to killsteal player A. Player B's character name will turn pink
and he will be PKable(can be PKed) for the next 10 seconds.
Another countdown timer above player B's
name is displayed telling how many more seconds before his Ksing
offense will be gone.

This can be exploitable. For example, if someone hits a monster while a nuker/archer is charging their attack, then the nuker/archer will get pink status even though they started preparing for an attack earlier.

thats so dam stupid!

what if 2 people were grinding together on a high lvl giant eg 2 lvl 4x people grinding a lvl 7x giant just to say that they killed it.

or what about uniques..??? everyone is gonna turn pink who is grinding on a unique???

also if u accidentally ks 2 people in a row, u turn pink, thats so stupid.

ks'ing isnt that big of a deal in SRO. Just find a place where there is no one around and boom problem solved. If u get ks'd, oh well! Just shake it off and keep grinding. Theres no rule saying " u arnt allowed to ks" and thats the way it should be.

Want owning uniques alone?

How about in case of splash damage?

Stupid idea after all

ok so it will only be applied on normal mobs and champions.
Nope to giants and unique.

And about splash damage, you wont get pink status unless you
wer really targeting the same mob.

and no pink status when your grinding with an exp share party.

how bout if ur not in some kind of share party w/ some1, then whoever attks the mob 1st will get sole access to it, & other players can't select & attk it, though uniques will still be a free-4-all....

but this game aint fun w/o ability to ks & piss ppl off

thats the point...
if some gold farming nuker bot tries to ks... they die.

If someone * like me* is killing a mob, than targets mob #2 while the final attack is being used, then fires a nuke a mob #2, to then realize someone else has "claimed" it .. then do this again by accident... then i die??

GG ... your system has too many flaws.

Man I have this plan that's soooo much better....

kill the mob faster....

don't complain about KS-ing. If you don't like that you can be KS-ed, try FLYFF.

KSing is part of the game and actually a good one. I can follow someone who pisses me off around and just shock hsout mobs after he attacks reducing his amount of exp until he either gets pissed and pks me...

or....goes away. =)

In flyff if you're not in a party and attack somone elses monster, I think you simply do no damage to it...

And it's hard to move away from KSers when they're everywhere you go.
Not that KSing bothers me much but I can see why it would bother some people.
