Does it bother you to see "instakill" abilities on Pangaea?

Yes, it's unfair against them really trained characters.

Having absolutely no chance with highly trained chars is bothersome. (veritas, malleus and priests in general) Even if sacrifice was turned so that it couldnt instakill, rites like veritas would instantly heal the group back to full health making it pointless once again.
Sacrifice wouldnt be sacrifice without insta kill once agaiiiiiin its about the ability to precast run on screen and target your enemy necro has two chants it can do that with wich is bs no other class or religion can pre cast such a rite/spell.

Boris posted a list of ways to avoid it quite comical really how he thinks within a split second of someone appearing.on your screen you can do any of those on the list.
Only thing i can say that you have an island with solitude, also 19 tiles casting range for solitude is bullshit it has gotten me too many times. Try to counter something you dont know is coming. Plus you dont even know how to use the solitude effectively to drop your enemies with it which is laughable... Now that there is someone who can use his instakill ability correctly crying starts.

When you know that, just have a hotkey to hide or drink a potion to hide.

It's not really rocket surgery.

So basically you're suggesting:
a) not to fight
b) hide? Does hiding really work against sacrifice?

It's not how and who uses it.
The principle is to be able to use instakill abilities overall on Pangaea.
You can't say you like to be onehitted by solitude when the caster is basically immune against you?

Ofcourse you want to see a change.
Give your input and stop being someone im not going to write here.


That's we we should discuss here to be honest...

Veritas spamming solitude malleus users whining about a chant like sacrifice?

Man. Your the new Tek.

In short terms. I'm against instakill. But the whole system needs a rework then to balance things up.
