1 Week in Red:Zoneplugging Fungis

[Hanzou]

First three days were pretty cool, last four days I've been in MM.

All my groups end with guys coming in wearing fungis. In the case we can counter attack they end up zone plugging.

Could something be done about plugging and fungis? Even in the rare case we kill the guy wearing a fungi he can just come back and wait for us to engage a mob.

Regarding the Fungis I think we could disable the regen bonus during pvp combat at low levels or just put a level cap on them in red entirely. The Fungi regen at low level pvp only has detrimental effects on the server, and as one of the new comers I'm concerned some of my new friends might end up quitting because of this.

That is what makes red, red. MM is a sweet spot but you gotta break the mold, find something else in the wild where reds might not be, and farm that. Good luck

[Hanzou]

Yeah I guess I should see if I can get people to try another zone, too bad about the plugging though... Nice song :)

Hang in there pussy cat

[mostbitter]

you are welcome

[Barkingturtle]

Recruit and contest, imo.

if twinks in fungis are having to plug they are not twinked enough

[Infectious]

If you kill twink, corpse camp his ass or make him /ooc lns. Also mm is dumb unless you have a full group with you. In 30s try splitpaw, hhk, sola and so on where not everyone flocks too

[Gnomegrown]

levels in populated zones, complains about twinks

go to splitpaw, you wont see a fungi twink and its the same range as mistmoore, and probably a better exp bonus.

[BardPop]

This seems like a troll, do tell who are these "fungi" people?

[Tassador]

No one pvps on this blue fucking server this is a troll.

[BardPop]

I challenge the Op to name one even fungi twink who got a kill.

Doesn't know shit about avoiding simple trolls, but a genius when it comes to his paw.







Dumb fgt..

[Buhbuh]

Splitpaw mobs run but it's solid with full groups

This guy hit the nail on the head. You basically need to make friends with players and look for other exp spots. Dalnir and kaesora are always empty and are pretty awesome exp spots.

[Sk00ba5t3v3]

So many gaping vag masters on this server. Their plugging skills can't be contended with.

[xblade724]

Make some of the overkill-twink items lootable -- that'll grant some nice risk/reward

If teams ever hits, I pray for item loot <3

Doesn't have to be full item loot so everyone's freaking paranoid all the time:

Here is something no one has suggested,

For some of the "overkill" gear for twinks, make it lootable til level xx. You know Live has gear restrictions for the truly OP gear? What if the level for gear restrictions doesn't make it so you can't equip it, but instead makes it lootable if you are under the recommended level for equipping? That'd slow some of the griefers down, and for the people that have earned the levels to wear it appropriately, then they don't have to worry anymore.

That'll give some risk and reward for the uber twink griefers, yet let the people that deserve to equip it feel that warm fuzzy sense of security. The average griefer probably won't die ANYWAY, and will surely plug if he got low, but "that chance" that something crazy happens sounds fun in case the newbs swarm zerg the griefers lol

People park really geared twinks in MM and unrest. Level somewhere off the beaten path and chances are you'll never see one. The exp is lower in other zones you say? If you figure in the amount of interruptions from fungi twinks you'd be surprised.

[Clark]

What am I reading.

[Potus]

I don't understand why Mistmoore and Unrest are so popular here. There are better zones. The loot in both isn't even that good. The exp is meh.

[baalzy]

Low population server, new players with limited ability to find ports (there are often gaping holes in the day where noone responds to a OOC for a port). MM is popular because it's easy to get to and you can find groups there. Also, since most people are adults now and have responsibilities; the 1 hour it takes to put together a group, find a port and get to the leveling spot ends up being a significant chunk of a persons free time.

So, instead, people go to MM where they can almost always find someone to join up and duo/trio with. Full groups happen fairly regularly, and the Xp can be started immediately.

I've personally not had too many confrontations with twinked assclowns in the zone (Bush a couple times, but we managed to chase him off when Biscuits showed up). However, I don't see how supporting / protecting these assclowns is in any way healthy for the server. At least limit it to the 40+ level range when the effects of massive twinking aren't as drastic.

My suggestion would just be to alter the leaderboards so someone who is a confirmed twink doesn't receive any kill credit unless they're killing another confirmed twink, until they're in the 40s.

Note: Obviously the established people aren't having as much a problem, because they know people and have other characters they can log to. The brand new people who want to give it a try though, don't have that luxury just yet.

[Mac Drettj]

Sounds like we need 2 boxing and item loot

[Fame]

lol

[Kergan]

Just read the OP not the rest, I don't understand how a fungi protects a single person from dying to a full group. In a 2 min fight that is what, 400 hp? People just need to be aware of their surroundings, map /who to a separate window and movement key, fight deeper in dungeons instead of pulling shit to the entrance and coordinate defensive efforts.

[Korben]

The fuck is zone plugging, more R99 shit that's just another reason to give it a try?

Sounds bad as fuck

It's when with hands trembling you rip the network cable out of the back of your PC just after hitting a zone line to prevent your in-game avatar from dying, which is of course the worse thing that can possibly happen to a human being.

Lol worse than I imagined

Coming to certain conclusions are we? They are classic. Embrace them.
