aoe spells and grouping
 
aoe stun's nukes, and such. Should they be allowed to hit group members?

Pudge 09-29-2011 02:55 AM

i say... they shouldn't.

same for guild members

They always did back in '99.

Yes, in a FFA setting (RZ) this is how it always worked. I loved AE spells as a purist on VZ, though :D

I vote +1 for hitting group members.

rallos zek was only +/- 4 levels. We are trying to make a server that is classic and not suck as bad as live did at the same time. "Because its classic" doesnt mean that its not still stupid.

Some things, very few. Should be looked at for a change. Tallon/vallon zek, had no team dmg on spells. Worked out just fine, that was classic pvp as well.

But this is not a teams server.

oh really?
 
instead of stating something obvious, why not post a useful reason why AOE spells hitting group members is a good thing? Using some line of logic other than "its classic", it's a cop out that a 1920's farmer that never went to a day in school would use. ...... whelp thats the way it always was...


stupid is stupid, and always will be stupid..... :cool:

One of my mage guildmates on Vallon was very fond of using AE nukes in mass pvp. This was high end, so we were all crossteamers. It took a lot more skill, luck and awareness to use AE spells in this setting. If your guild and group are immune, you could just spam those things without caring who all was around you. Not harming your allies is helpful for noobs, but it would end up being what everyone does, so the players that can actually do it without being too stupid are placed on the same level as the noobs. There were some very funny moments.

After a battle, he'd be like, "killed 4 of us, but got 7 of them! :D"

lol

it would still harm mass crowds, just not your 6 man group. So enchanter aoe stun's and such would still have some amount of usefulness in pve.

------to reply to your nonsense made up stories----
As for people standing under your freinds aoe's i dont know how people were dieing to that. It's not like rain spells are hard to see, and were easily resisted. I'd say you were full of crap.(or everyone was just stupid).

After early kunark most people would resist aoe rain spells. Esp if it was so "high end", that everyone "had" to cross team. Other non rain aoe's were even easier to resist.........

Cross teaming was lame, and both tallon and vallon were garbage after that became the norm.
