Ok I've edited my original post.
Question: Is it legal to look like in the video?

A statement from Abydos would be nice.

aren't the last bans enough?
Why does the bugusing continue?
This time I saw it myself and recorded it, if you don't follow the rules you should expect a ban.

I mean i still dont understand why guard dosnt attack pet or mob. That woulb be an easy fix

This happens more often than not. And not exclusively to one realm.

Those in glasshouses should not throw stones is all i'll say here....

In the last thread you accused us of slandering and wrongly accusing us and you demanded evidence from us that we have provided.
This time there is evidence and you make the claim that others would do the same.
Where is your evidence?
You are always free to post them here so that something can be done.
Ultimately, Abydos decides what happens anyway.

Are you going out of your way to get people banned? I mean really. There are at least TWO players in Hib who do this to Albion relic doors. The last was as recently as a month ago.

I won't name them:

A) because it's poor coding

B) because I don't want people getting their accounts banned over blue pets hitting a door

And

C) the server is losing enough people as it is.

If this is how you get a kick out of playing DAOC then that is perfectly fine, but it's getting to a point of being ridiculous.

I think this is very poor taste.

Valfar posted vids of people clearly dual-logging and farming rps.
This guy is drawing out people to fight, using the server settings.

And I assume this is the server settings, because think of the implications if guards attacked pets??? Focus shield, and clear an entire relic keep of melee guards.


And wtf... why did you not kill the caba? You were 2 and decided to kill the pet?

I wanted to capture that to show the mechanics.
Also, they were two (Mbcab and Mitchelson).
Your very Mitchelson not on the video but whoever they killed reported it to me.
There is another way to move keep guards away, but I won't post any instructions for that.

Rules

Point 6. Abuse of bugs, exploits and obvious game errors is forbidden. If you are not sure whether something is a bug or an error then please ask the Uthgard staff for help and clarification. Bugs have to be reported.

It absolutely in poor taste. A blue pet whacking on a relic door would take how long to actually take it down? A yellow charm pet does 15 damage to a lvl 1 door for context.

Ripped the arse out of it this time.

Report it and stop trying to be some sort of martyr then.

It is.

It's also a bit rich comming from someone who shroomed keeplords from outside the keep for months (and never reported it). Guess rangers double tapping isn't on his todo list either. Leave alone the fact that he has played with one of them for years. Guess we haven't hit rock-bottom yet and are still finding new lows.

@Satiah your posts are getting more and more ridiculous.
1. Were you there with your animist?
2. Was the issue with the double tapping from the archers addressed in a previous post by me.
3. Did you also play with him......

1. Yeah, I've done it. At first I refused todo it though (for month's), but yeah, I got mad at the Romu zerg from time to time. I also reported it and (all credit goes to Fremster here really) looked/worked on a fix for it with Genjiro.
2. It still exists and is beeing abused.
3. I still do. Sometimes with him, sometimes he's on another realm and I play against him. But then again, I don't RvR at all nowadays. All good. He doesn't kick me out of his discord channel either when I'm on another realm.

Keep guards "see" pets as neutral until the controller is in the aggro list. It's part of the code that's caused lots of forum venting over the years. Usually from archers that get pets on them and the keep guards won't help them (in reality an out of range enemy healer is at the top of their aggro list.)

And of course the behavior enables "flame tricking" a keep as we used to call it. Basically you kill all the front guards, and leave the pet behind on the door, and try to ambush incoming defenders. As the guards respawn they ignore the neutral pet.

Flame tricking keeps has been happening for years as people try to make action. So please stop trying to get Mitch banned.

The real truth though, is that it seems like a good way to build action....but folks are afraid of inc, so they first have to check a flaming keep on their stealthers. Just like in the "evidence"

So, hibs have been setting shrooms into the lord room for a long time while Hibs always defended it as "working as intended" and "Where does it say it isn't allowed?".
And that's not a thing of the past - the lord room windows might have had glass windows installed, preventing that tactic - but there are plenty of other windows in the Alb keep tower and Hibs planted tons of shrooms into all of them like only three weeks ago. Couldn't move up or down the stairs without getting nuked down by the shrooms that were able to SEE INSIDE from the windowsill.
Then there's Golani/Maglan, taking HIB-keeps with border/portalkeep guards - once he got banned for like a week for that even though Hibs defended him as "He's just bored" and then he did that that a few weeks ago (Bolg flipped to Alb even though there wasn't a single Alb in Breifine and not enough Anons either). I don't have proof for the one a few weeks ago, though it's funny how I went there to look and of all the possible Hibs to encounter, I run into Maglan & Shanulfia.

Alb relic doors get trashed almost daily whenever we got relics, by Hibs or Mids using siege weapons...

And I also remember watching an enchanter pet running up to the lord in Dun Crauchon and attacking him - guards ignored that thing too!

I mean to be honest, you only got "only an Alb" doing that on video, since Hibs have other tricks up their sleeves - no need to attack doors with a pet that get's ignored, when you can ignore the doors altogether and shroom the ****** lord room from behind the keep!

Exactly what I seen, amongst other things too. What a petty can of worms the OP has opened here. And totally un needed too.
