View Full Version : Miscellaneous: Plane of Air - Dueling should be dangerous

Dueling on isle 1 should aggro the quest givers as well.

And even just casting detrimental spells on a pc even if not in duel. They should act like city guards I suppose.

Hmmm

- Never duel in the Plane of Sky because the mobs do not like it and will attack you if you do so.
- Do not use any AE on the first island. This is because the quest hall is right under it and using AE will aggro the quest hall monsters, which you do not want to happen

It is generally never a good idea to either duel or cast area effect damage or stun spells in Plane of Sky. On the first island, dueling will aggro the quest based efreeti’s underneath in the quest room who will begin death touching players and wiping out the raid very quickly. Dueling on Gorgalask Island will cause passing MOBs to consider you free game and will begin attacking you immediately. Area effect spells also have similar effects. Even area spells with very small ranges like the enchanter line of color stuns will aggro things like the efreeti’s under Key Master Island. Another thing to take note of are weapons that proc area effect damage or stuns as these will be just as dangerous. As a general rule, you never know what area effect spells or dueling will aggro, so try to avoid it if you’re not one-hundred percent sure.

WORDS OF CAUTION:

The Sky inhabitants have a peculiar notion of aggro. Sirran will assist mobs that are fought next to him (you don't want that, Sirran hits for 2000). Also, all the efreeti will attack you if you either duel close to them or unintentionally cast a non player friendly spell on someone (ie, bards AoE damage on group, etc...). Same is said for quest hall on island, do not duel and be careful of AoE on island one.

May want to watch out if you're dueling. You can get aggro from nasty
places. The best thing to do is die to Sirran. That way you'll have more
than 10 minutes to res plus you wont get things like a train of all the
genies from the quest room. Although it's kinda funny seeing them all
come up and whack the people dueling.

...

Get yourself killed where you are, duel can be a bad idea, I hear it agros
all sorts of fun stuff.

So...

-all npcs in airplane should guard assist?
-Sirran should assist any airplane npc?

Didn't Sirran aggro from proximity text as well? I'm not sure of the specifics. Was it certain words, or random?

Do not use any AoE spells, duel, or cast any offensive spells on another PC, as this will aggro the Quest Efreetis, which will wipe you and 1 or 2 others out in seconds.



When she dies, Sirran the Lunatic, a halfling, will spawn. Do not hail him, or engage him in conversation (make sure no one says "What hassle?", as this will make him attack the person immediately. Sirran hits for over 2000 damage each round).

The dueling corpse key meta we have today is potentially not classic.
