[Yinikren]

You did an offensive action towards yourself because of guard assist.

[Twoberries]

Holy sucker of rooster-madness! Copy-pasta this code to the red-heads.

[Twoberries]

RED-HEAD: whine-whine-whine-guards don't help, OMFG!
Guard: Manastone? Not on my watch!
RED-HEAD has been chopped down like a sniveling %$^& for way more than it deserves!

RED-HEAD: Nerf Guards Ploxd!?!

[Uthgaard]

Epic summary. Accurate too.

[Twoberries]

Please move this thread to PvP RnF so I can really reply without getting banned.

[Twoberries]

Epic summary. Too accurate.

[Nizzarr]

Thats all pretty hilarious.

Anyone tried to nuke themselves near guards?

edit :yea I just nuked myself using the lvl 1 nuke and got raped by guards.

[Szeth]

That's all hilarious guys... Except Daldaean afaik is from Blue server. So you've just attacked someone for bitching on red, when indeed they weren't!

[Autotune]

is it from blue? i know dald usually plays on blue and it's posted in blue. I'll log in and check. if i can find guards that actually like my necro.

So I tried the nfp "guards" who I have amibly or warmly faction with and they wouldn't assist me in my suicide.

Not sure if my faction level plays any factor in this, or if it's the nfp paladin faction that is keeping them from acting like other guards or not. Edit: seems to be they don't assist if you are high enough that they con green. I tried to get a green wfp guard to attack me as i suicided myself on top of him but he wouldn't (he is also KoS).

[Autotune]

Made a level one wizard and confirmed the guards in NFP that are on paladin/cleric faction don't assist in suicide.

The green (to my lvl 60 necro) wfp guard, will in fact assist in the suicide of people more around his power level lol (lvl 1 wizard nuke tested)

[Daldaen]

Hrmm... I failed to mention I'm on blue. But yes, I understand the reason why this is functioning, the guard aggro script if you are attacked by another player in PvP....

But it shouldn't be happening on Blue is my point. There is 0 reason for the guards to assist when you are nuked on blue. They only should assist due to proximity aggro of an unfriendly mob.

[nilbog]

It's a bug that self-inflicted damage is counted as pvp damage. You are damaging a player right?! :P Rogean will fix it when he can.

Added guard assist to NFP guards, pending update.

Guards assisted versus pvp on pve servers. Never could duel by the guards without fear of them attacking someone.

Yeah, I remember not being able to duel near guards.

[Daldaen]

Hmm I don't remember the dueling issue on live but now that you mention it, it sounds vaguely familiar. Either way, confirmed bug, excellent, I look forward to when it will get fixed :).
