Default Arsenic
How does this apply to PKing?

I'm afraid of it being used to get back to town before looting of items can occur, also allowing the PK to be forced because he can't escape looting.

For slow effects, use the slow % but as a negative.

Just repeat for multiple effects.

DO NOT multiply by 1+slow% to get your new delay. 1*1.4 is not the same as 1/0.6 and your answer will be wrong.

It doesn't affect looting.

"That said, we have recognized the unnecessary annoyance of being held in PvP combat, and are implementing a new /arsenic command that will allow you to poison yourself and get it over with if you so choose."

The biggest issue was (and apparently remains) the ability to hold someone in CB looting for 3 minutes, not holding them in combat and tanking/taunting (thought this was being done to a lesser extent).

OK, thank you for letting us know. We'll implement something specific to clan battling to help with that as well.

Excellent change on reducing looting time. It's part of the game to lose a battle. But it's insulting to sit there and have to wait.

Agreed, this was a good patch. It was fun to exploit it while it lasted but this update makes the game better for everyone.
