What attitudes and philosophies do you hate in P1999?

Sneak pulling has been changed like 5 times. Enlighten us: what is the true and classic way.

That post was back in January before the most recent fix which makes it much more classic.

Back then, there was no flight collision. Also sneak is intended to function as a lull, reducing assist range by mobs which have their backs to your pull. Not eliminating it entirely. The recent changes have made flight collisions work so you couldn't just throw something into a pack of 20 mobs and get a mob in the middle of the pack single. Also the change Haynar made that changed how mobs facing your target assist makes it function much better.

Flight collision and assisting fixes make it a useful tool but it's no longer the easy button it was.

Oh wow I didn't realize how old that was, but yeah I learned the hard way when returning to the server it was changed to current state.

Still monk fd sneak before standing seems to make fd splits way easier than I remember them being on live. Maybe I just grouped with bad monks though /shrug.

As someone who's had a long standing hatred of EC tunnel, I've had a pretty good time selling my items lately. Everything of significant value sold and made some people happy with solid deals. About 40k richer for it. Had fun. Sold a rogue his ravenscale BP last and he was SOOO happy. That felt good because I know the feeling.

YEA unfortunately the people selling low value items, people who need that 1k weapon, have a hell of a time

So you're saying tunnel quest sucks? I agree! Why I'm pleasantly surprised to have my stuff actually sell.

The sneak blur thing I've never heard of before and I haven't seen any references or quotes in era corroborating the mechanic as a classic one.

In fact I recall monks having to /quit out an enormous amount.

That being said however, with my experience at least on my necromancer, I find that mobs will not memblur until they fully reset. This isn't correct. I'm pretty sure each FD should have a chance to memblur each mob on your hate list even while they path back.

Here it seems that once a mob paths back, it's 100% chance to be blurred.
If it's still walking back or still static where it stopped after your FD, it has a 0% chance to be blurred... Unless you hit Sneak when you stand up?

Maybe I'll research this as my next big report cause that is another issue making pulling extremely easy

It's funny how sensitive gamers have become since the EC tunnel days on live servers. If you don't like someone's offer and you think it's too low to negotiate with, how hard is it to say "no thanks" and let it go instead of letting it make you mad? If their price is too high, why lecture them? People sometimes take those low offers and people sometimes pay the high prices, so just let them do their thing and ignore it.

PS. this wasn't directed at anybody in particular, so don't take it that way.

Or the people that don't even bother with a counter offer. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Yeah, I usually counter offer unless the original offer was just too far away for it to work. I do get a little annoyed when people won't even respond to an attempt to negotiate price. Could at least say "price is firm" or "no thanks."

I'm usually one of those, if I'm selling an item for 4k and someone says "take 2.2k? xDDD"... that's not worth a response [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

2-GMs acting angry and confused that they have to spend 50% of their time babysitting/petitionquest with end game guilds, when it is them who set up the raid system this way

People thinking they're entitled to anything from GMs working on a game they don't pay for.

People thinking they're entitled.

Note that people who point fingers at specific groups/individuals/policies and make snarky comments about "welfare" and "effort" typically display attitudes rooted deeply in their own sense of entitlement.

This is not p99 specific tho.
