MVP Mini-Muspel KS

How is pneumaing an MVP dirtier than killstealing an MVP? If people want to fight for stuff, fight smartly at least. In WoE you can debuff people to win a castle but in pvm you can't debuff people to win your loots?

My theory is that you can do stuff that other people can reverse (you can LP/sw pneuma for example), so teleporting mvps and stuff like that isn't in my "dirty play strategies". Game is actually much more fun if fighting is involved cause pvm gets pretty repetitive and unchallenging.

I'd even suggest making some MVP maps pvp enabled, i'd find it so fun if teams are equally geared/numbered, but that's pretty hard to have in this kind of game, unless gears are imposed for the event.

I agree that people should be allowed to use tactics. The reason the rule against doing so came into play was an old long-standing conflict surrounding Golden Thief Bug camping where people were using SW to stop Asuras, so others brought LP, so others brought more LP, so others brought Pneuma to stop Creators, etc. I thought the whole thing was WAY more fun than just solo camping GTB, you actually had guilds working together even on low end MVPs. It brought a whole new meaning to competitive MVPing and I found it quite fun. But people whined enough that the rule about not interfering with others' strategies got implemented. Oh well, more carebearing!

You can Pneuma a boss, you just aren't suppose to do it maliciously to prevent other people who already are mvping from...mvping.

Similar to the who SWing a boss to keep players from damaging it, or LPing an area to screw up the strategy, or doing anything to make it purposefully teleport around.

But, I think some of these rules kind of go out the window the moment you have event MVP's, true anarchy baby

You just shouldn't insult people during or afterwards.

AKA, I'm with Albus pretty much all the way about this. I dealt with plenty of MVP competition back in the day when I lead a guild, and Tul has a few memorable shots of that lol. Embarrassing yes, but it just teaches you to think of ways to not have it happen again. It does mean having to plan a bit more thoroughly, but it'll make you a better player in the end.

GM's shouldn't have to cater to every little complaint and whine just because the server doesn't have the player count it once did.

Yea, Tulwar's steals of Randgris were hilarious! I miss those days.
