Re: Robbing isn't broken
Can we get forums jails for the people who consistantly whine about getting dry loot back.....
Re: Robbing isn't broken
Stoning having back is a bit too harsh if you ask me. The point of playing this game is to have fun. I understand that robbers lives should make harder, but can you imagine the situation for example some none religious blue guy disrispecting imperial, getting stoned for 40 days and being unable to play for 40 days only because he doesnt believe in Her. And having stoning back might end up people casting it in fights between religions =).
Lot of talk again, the main point, Make robbers life much harder but dont allow stoning!

Robbers have Tekstone to balance it out.

Leather armor is best for sneaking, because it's literally made from hide.

Re: Robbing isn't broken
Imho things were a lot better when stoning was allowed and Tekstone was forbidden to help the robbers. In other words, you robbed freely what you wanted, but should you end up stoned, you had no other option but to wait for the stone's power to decrease to zero. And if Wronged you had to ask help from the regular players to clear the Wrong, which of course is a lot harder than with priests.

Make a poll to your forums, if that's what majority wants then ofc we can change it, no probs.Darian Darkmind wrote:Imho things were a lot better when stoning was allowed and Tekstone was forbidden to help the robbers.

Or well, sure it might give you better armours but the risks aren't worth it. If clothes etc. were actually lootable, I'm sure most of the robbers would focus hunting down hunting-groups instead of single lone-newbies in their vampire bones and lunar weapons.
At least that's how we did it with Nox back in the days. Robbing a newbie was a waste of our time and would only fill our chests with junk.
The bottom line is, if you can only loot shit, then don't be surprised when the shit is looted from everyone, newbs and veterans a like.
AH AH I have a slightly different memory about how Nox robbed my fresh TH off her only onyx spear and she was alone... 1 against 5 hummmm
Re: Robbing isn't broken
I see people rolling round in auros, giant bones, liohite, coud giant, fire giant all the time.
How can robbing as it is not not profitable...

Re: Robbing isn't broken
Was that three-four years ago? Or now with the new nox? Besides, onyx spear is good and useful for Nox.Nymphea wrote:Darian Darkmind wrote:Did you ever stop to think that the reason some of these robbers around here go around being "lame" robbing everyone out of all the junk, is because robbing the "rich" players doesn't really give you any better loot.

Re: Robbing isn't broken
It was very long ago - perhaps more than 4 years ago
was just a thought that popped up reading your post.
Apart from that once I have never had bad experience with Nox even if I got robbed - was somehow fun.

Re: Robbing isn't broken
I wonder why people think robbing is the only kind of PvP that has to do with the economy/looting.
