Title: Getting old...
Post by Authority on 01/24/04 at 18:01:11
Hitting and running is completely getting old and pathetic. One person that still uses this tactic is the only pus known as Parental_Advisory aka Adil.

Something should be done, such as the alts with no stam can not follow the party if they have no stam. I know this has been spoken about plenty of times but when will it be implimented? Maybe this will put an end to the sandnug and his annoying and dishonorable tactics.

Really, shut up about this already. Please.

If there's anything that's more annoying than people doing hit and runs it's people who complain about them on the forums. Keep your beef with other players ingame.

Hitting and running is a strategy. The only time I got a bit mad was when someone was hitting and running in pete's fighting arena  lmfao.

Hit and runs are a tactic but are you sure there the one's running and not you?  ;D

Back in the day Devout basically started the hit and run tactic.  All of us would go on a druid/mage and our theives and rape pretty much anyone anywhere.  It was badass and it was pretty fun, but we all agreed after a while that it just got old.  It wasn't like a clan ban on the tactic, each of us just got tired of doing it.

We were pregnant doged at by every single player in game.  Then everyone started using it.  Personally I don't get killed by hit and runners often, it just isn't used too much and when people actually attack me I'm pretty much always sitting 1 south on 3-4 crits, not hard to heal myself w/o dying.

Complaining about hit and runs is old.  Just chill and eventually it'll go away.  I don't think we need to change how party system and all that jazz works just to solve a tactic that only a couple people in game still use.  We all used it, apperently most of us got tired of it.  So will the people that are using it now.  If they want to kill you without having to worry too much about dying, let them.


One suggestion for you--sit south on just your cleric (dwarf with high hp would be nice) or high level zerker.  Hold heal or pots macro, make sure armor spells are on.  Have friend/clannies sit there on thieves holding macros on alts that they think will hit.  It should drop the person's crits...only problem is that you rarely can get the party leader, it would help to have a spyglass, then vision and hit...but then you don't want too many invis crits on square..it'll lag you too much to hit them effectivly.

I will sit and fight anyone anywhere. I don't need to run from people. Flawless, can you tell me when I have done this? Maybe it was when it was 30 v 1. OK I'll admit it, I might have done it south of NM when there was an entire clan against me. The only time Adil does this is when your training crits that arent even arched. He will hit my low level party and run like a pus wit his tail between his legs.

Yar, you only did it when it was like a proper fight not purposely picking off like lvl 20's and stuff.
