PKing Changes

[Huggles]

Section 1- Trophies

The PK trophy bonus can now be toggled on and off. When it is on, you will get 3x trophies, but they will be <SB>. When it is not, you will get regular, unsoulbound trophies.

So then Glitchless, unless you have a way to tell the difference between a PK and someone who exploits the bonus for 3x trophies and exp with very little risk by doing no real PKing, just setups, I suggest you implement this or something before the trophy market crashes completely.


Section 2- PKKing Risks

To encourage PKing and add some risk for PKKs, those who force combat on PKs will lose Rested Time if killed in PvP combat. This will make it so that setups are slightly harder to achieve, and PKKs actually have some risk.

i must say this thread has fail all over it as there is no real research to it or it is just poorly written.

EX: PK toggle? wtf is that? you mean boon toggle?

as for the second part ummm ya everyone is aware the pk system is being totaly exploited as i have stated many times in exploit thread, but a good solution would be needed to stop it and i dont really think losing some rrt/rt would curb it any lol
EX: have a lvl 5 force on your lvl 85 and wow your unplayed lvl 5 loses 5mins rrt/rt lol oh noes :O

just sounds like another attempt to nerf the few pkk's actualy hunting and trying to stop the exploiting...like me

ahh there is a idea: if you dont like people exploiting the pk system, maybe get off your lazy azz and start wasting time hunting them instead of just bitching and whineing bout it..

that is my rip on a forum thread for this month... that is all ;P

Xulos is right. The counter to PKers exploiting the market is PKKers. Don't like it? Do some PKKing.

Well said. In any case, if being a PK is such an exploit, try it. You might get a different perspective of this "exploit" when you're a lvl 1 again.

i think when i said PK bonus for trophies can be toggled on and off, it was quite flipping clear. and the thing is, how do you PKK people who do a setup 2 seconds after reboot and then run away? This idea would get rid of fake PKers, thus stabilising the market. also, most fake PKers are at higher levels. why don't you go hunt them down? you want a level 35 doing your work for you?

and fine then, maybe just part 1 if you don't want fewer pkks around.

i am sure i will soon tire of replying to such a stoopid thread but here is a idea HUNT THEM!!! very few of my pkk's have been while they are killing, i actually put some thought into it (where they would hunt and so on) then actually hunt them, it may be days after there kill.

but um ya i guess your way is easier *whines* please daddy Glitch if you cant make it so the pkers just come to me and drop dead at my feet while standing right by the safety of town then please stop them for me *end whine*

really Luk go get some huggles from your mommy when feeling bad instead of wanting others to fix a system that is intended to have real hunters ;P

[Huggles]

Xulos just back off. This was supposed to be a measure to counteract FAKE PKs and help trophy prices. You can't seem to understand that.

Umm, if making all 3x trophies SB is not palatable, why not just limit it? a simple fix seems to be to keep the trophies unDSB for one day, then SB for a week, but not premit this ycle to reset until the week has passed... that would reduce the number of unSB trophies by.. well. quite a lot, eh?

the point is huggles.. the antidote for any pks real or false is pkks... if u feel they need to be stopped then go kill em, u can force em not only when they are killing, also when they are farming...

[Smashbros]

the reason there is a way for Pkers to make their trophies unSB is because they, like everyone else, would like the chance to sell trophies for some cash when they need it.

You (Huggles) obviously never played the game whenever PK's couldn't trade with no PK's at all have you? It was nearly impossible to make it more than 20-30 levels simply because you could barely afford equipment.. let alone gems..

Yes, I understand the system is "exploited" but it's not really.. As Xulos said, sthu.. go kill them! The last 5 people I've PKK'd have laid off from playing majorly after they died..

And I'm glad the next ones on my list are dumb enough to keep hunting the same areas (not hard to figure out by watching the trophy market)..

And really the hardest targets to find are in the 65-75 casters as they can hunt in so many zones where the people who normally hunt there cannot even force on them..
