 IRC Nickname: Dnovelta Group: Emeritus Posts: 2750 Member No.: 130 Joined: January 20, 2008 Total Events Attended: 137 | I freeze every raid, and rarely get kills. Freezers get their kills from barrage piles, not a single opponent. If all 20 of us on a raid attack one person, the freezers will hit a max of like 250 or something with Ice Blitz while rangers and meleers can hit far more than that. There just isn't much of a chance for a freezer to get a kill when we're taking on individuals. I personally don't see the problem with the DDS. Sure it's cheap, but if you're freezing, you're already risking like 800k in Mystic and runes. Might as well cut those people some slack and let them have a cheap, but efficient weapon that can help get some kills. Besides, freezers are going to first freeze the opponent then run in with their DDS once they're frozen, simple. The problem is where people who're risking like 400k with a D-Scimitar try to lower their risk by bringing a DDS. That's when it just isn't fair to those that risk more, and are more likely to die because they're targeted. Let mages have the choice between acceptable weapons. On a similar note, what is the current say on Korasi's Sword? Are we allowed to bring that on raids or no? --------------------   | ||||||

Unless it's an impromptu raid. Like last night we had 6 people: 2 rangers, 2 freezers, and 2 TB'ers. I shared 100k of my 500k kills which is 20%, and I think is fair. I only got two kills all night, the rest I just looted. I made enough to pay for my death and a little extra. Overall, I personally find mages beating me out of kills, however, I think that they should be able to choose what they would like. -------------------- They call me the Master woof   | ||||||

We could pull 20 to an impromptu and then its pointless. 5 or more = no claws imo -------------------- Be sure to check out the Community Events Forum! | ||||||

People are tbing just so they can take claws and get kills. And they dont have to share just cause their tbing. Theres my logic -------------------- Be sure to check out the Community Events Forum! | ||||||

 IRC Nickname: RobbieThe1st Group: Founder Posts: 770 Member No.: 2 Joined: December 26, 2007 Total Events Attended: 49 | To be honest, I'd much prefer if one person got more than his "fair share" of kills, if it increased our total kill-rate. It's incredibly annyoing when raiding with 5 people, and despite being TB'd and frozen, the guy still manages to escape. On top of that, finding TBers seems to be hard - I'd like to see two on each raid. If allowing claws means more people TBing, that's fine by me. Mind you, I've made quite a bit of my loot(and all of my rune/etc costs) off secondary drops - The loads of prayer pots and such that get left behind. And that's not even mentioning the occasional Neitisnot helms and such that get left by the guy who gets the kill. Just because you don't get kills, doesn't mean you can't make money - Just wait for drops, like happened in the old wildy. -------------------- Old Avatar - Paypal donation link  I am left handed, and proud of it!

I always ask who tb'ed after scoring a kill, it's a habit from the old wildy since i wasn't a big fan of the new(old now) wildy. -------------------- - Going MIA 31/03/2011 - - Avid-Gamers Unit - | ||||||

 IRC Nickname: Zooby Group: Guest Posts: 1669 Member No.: 1464 Joined: November 12, 2008 Total Events Attended: 109 | Took claws to the raid tonight while tbing, I wanted to see what it was like, I have no idea how these clawers are getting kills, first off half the people we kill aren't even TB'd because im still casting the TB when they die and secondly by the time Ive even clicked once (and I have my tb ready on rush) a few "tbers" are already there with their claws out speccin' them. Yes a raid with kills is good, just dont say you're tbing when you're not, we get a false amount of numbers when its only 2-3 out of the 7 who say they are tbing, we end up having less hybrids. I say anyway can bring any weapon - no one has objected to members bringing ags or other spec weapon, its time we stopped limiting ourselves in the wilderness. Also - what happened to enforcing spears/d scims? The only person (and there may be more) who I see constantly bringing spears is Woof, one out of a 60 man ML. one. -------------------- A Revolution without dance is a Revolution not worth having at all Lightbulbs die my sweet, I will depart | ||||||

Eh, for -most- kills I'd say we should. Especially on busy worlds. Why? We can get -more- kills this way. I've ended up getting attacked by PKers a -number- of times while waiting for a drop(and having everyone run ahead)... but -usually- noone's around by then so we can't kill em. Point is, waiting a bit won't hurt. Sure, we kill some noob with no gear - Leave it. If we kill someone with some decent gear and such... definitely wait. We might even run into the guy again as he tries to come back! (We've done that when some guy was cannoning - ended up getting one piece of cannon!  )-------------------- Old Avatar - Paypal donation link I am left handed, and proud of it!

| IRC Nickname: Flame_Reece Group: Emeritus Posts: 626 Member No.: 133 Joined: January 20, 2008 Total Events Attended: 34 | What you're saying is completely right Robbie, but the fact is that it isn't helping clan organization at all. It is slowing down raids and not helping our organization, and by that, i mean that 20 people killing 1 person isn't improving squat. We should be killing someone, (the killer) should be looting and everybody else should be fallen in, shares can be given out later. I give my shares to TB'ers after raids. If that person can't loot fast enough and move on with the clan, well guess what? You're becoming a liability in a war or a decent run-in. -------------------- - Going MIA 31/03/2011 - - Avid-Gamers Unit - | ||||||
