OT and You

[Grizzled]

As a bard of 7 years on live, i see both sides of the issue. I spent my long days swarm charm kiting Plane of Nightmare. All the birds trees and spiders were in my pack. A dick move yes. However at the time i was doing this Omens had come out and i was only pissing off 2 groups per day, cause the planes were empty.

Now the other side of the coin is, Kunark is just released. Lots of people are hitting kunark zones to exp. A large amount of the population is new players coming in with the expansion. Ot is one of the best chain pull "smash" grouping zones in kunark. And these people are pissing off 30+ groups a day.

You can look at this coin either way. I really dont care, my inner Bard is too striong. Its just a fine line, between hoarding and ability. Much like the fine line between kiting and training, very difficult to judge.

I dont think you understand. They literally spend 10-15 mins swarming up the entire zone of rhino's, non casting sarnaks, cats,cacti and chickens. The only thing they are leaving is the greens down by the watering hole. The only place to move to is another zone. this cannot be acceptable. Most of the dungeons are caster camped. Soo at the levels you hunt OT where is there left to go? Old world? Open zones get swarmed, dungeons locked up with casters soloing named camps. Something has got to give. This is the reason why on live, the agro limit was set to 4 mobs. 4 mobs of the same name was all you could agro. Once you picked up a 5th, one would lose agro and go walking off till one died.

Dalnirs/droga are only a zone away, and plenty of non-named mobs offer great experience (are there even any named exp mobs in OT?)! Old world is also very viable, I recall KK being great experience, and some of the SolB and guk camps were also tolerable.

Bards appreciate when you root, snare and dispell their mobs, just help them out they have it hard enough.

There is a difference between swarm kiting and being a griefing annoyance to the zone.

If you are running around gathering the entire zone and stealing mobs from other people who are camping there if they have them mezzed etc whatever with your AE and training people and killing them and hogging the entire zone for a ridiculous amount of time then I personally will consider you to be griefing and you will win a suspension.

I have played bards. I "get" swarm kiting. but, I never trained anyone, and I never kited the entire damn zone.

Stop being selfish during peak hours in highly populated zones. Because when you are selfish I get a ton of petitions and have to show up to the zone.

When someone calls you out on it, don't be an ass.

Be reasonable and play nice please.

And by a similar token... people who petition at the drop of a hat without attempting to work things out with a /tell first? Seriously. L2B an adult [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
