PvP stuff

[Zaldron]

A thing i have noticed in PvP is that Wizards can Manaburn SK can Harmtouch and Paladins can LoH but Necros can't use Lifeburn or our lifetap Dotline or alot of our other useful spells just yelling about it while its on my mind and anyone else is welcome to do so aswell because i think it sucks ass the nerfs they have hit us necros with certainly when you have been a necro since the beginning it really pisses you off

Come to Sullon...


You can lifeburn, lifetap dot, etc. in PVP here. :) Yes, Sullon is just a different game.

can you fear ??

[necropheliack]

i think its totally gay that peeps can do all that also but we cant do shit in pvp but dot to all hell and back and watch people lose exp and laugh its fun but would be funnier to be able to fear people still and use the lifetap dots and all

Heh, heard a funny story today about why we can't fear on Sullon. Don't know if it's true or not, but legend has it back in the old days, when the server was new, you could fear. Only there was an erudite necro who just sat there all day in Paineel fearing people so they ran off the edge into the Hole and then charging them super pp to summon thier corpse out again. And that's supposedly why they changed it and necros can no longer fear in PvP.


No idea if it's true (I've only even been playing a few months) but it sure did make me laugh at the thought of it.

Fearing people into lava in Solb had something to do with it too.

Wizards cant manaburn in pvp
Sure we can cast it ( my main is a wizard) but two things happen when we do
for one PVP for wizards is nerfed. we Cant do more then 75% damage to a PC with a single nuke so if i hit a lvl 1 noob with MB he will still be at 25% life.

Manaburn also takes all mana to cast so If i cast it i would be fighting Someone with still 25% life and me with no man to strike again to kill him

Manaburn is useless now

If I remember correctly, fear and charm were both nerfed on PvP servers back in the fall of 1999. Sullon hadn't even been created, Vallon and Tallon had been up for a few months, Rallos since that previous spring. Fear was nerfed because it turned the player into an NPC and could be used to cause xp death. Charm was nerfed due to people sending charmed victims into guards etc. for xp death. Unlike Sullon, PvP xp death was considered a big no-no on RZ, TZ, and VZ. Both of these affects may have also allowed people outside of level range and/or on the same team as the victim to PK them. For fear, you are lvl 35 and cast fear on the lvl 31 victim who is in your level range. Now a lvl 50 can kill that lvl 31 outside his lvl range because he's considered an NPC while feared. In the case of charm, human charms dark elf, other dark elf can now kill that dark elf as a pet of the human, even though they are supposed to be on the same team.

I doubt if they had cliffs or lava pits in mind when they nerfed fear. FYI on PVP servers you don't take xp death for a fall, drowing, lava, pain&suffering, etc. death. There are also plenty of knockback spells that can toss people into lava, as well as grav flux, or just dispelling levitate off of some caster as they hover over lava etc. It's standard practice for pvp victims to jump off a cliff or into lava etc. to avoid a PvP death and keep their plat and/or items. It's also standard practice for melees to bank their stuff and suicide themselves by drowning or falling as a ghetto translocate.

Everyone is nerfed, No caster can do more then 75% of the targets MAX hp in a single spell, if the target is below 75% or at 75% You can single shoot them, but honest, Manaburn is a waste in a duel, but in pvp is a different story - Ive played a 65 wizard on sullon, Play a 61 necro now. I hardly ever used Manaburn, Lure of x worked like a charm aganist meleers - Draught of thunder/lure vs other casters - but to come clean, Wizards get boring, its to easy to kill someone as a wizard, I have more fun playing my Necro then I ever had with my wizard.
