Yeah i did some i think it was bots as non of them aswered me then i asked for help to get my quest ‘’ rank 3 priest ‘’ done as the mobs was higher lvl then my self lol :confused:

Who the FUDGE does that? I mean, who the heck would KSING a support class? Clearly, that guy is extremely rude and have no respect for support class.

Total agree mate, total agree i am a support ‘’ buffer ‘’ and some ks me and not even inv at all lol :confused: i stopped inv ppl as most of them is in party or are bots lol

People see an easy target to ks is all. I played my barbarian to 131 and I had very little problems with ks. But for some reason when people see me on my 71 cleric c3 kiting a mob waiting for my skills to cooldown or hitting it for like 50 dmg, they feel like they can steal my kill. Sometimes afterwards when I ask for a party, they party me but alot of times they say no. Sometimes they are just bots.

It is kinda hard to level but I went into a dungeon for the first time today on my cleric and I gotta say dungeon running on a cleric is wayyy more satisfying than on a barbarian.

right ? right ? exactly this ! playing a cleric c3 priest c2 , and half of the time when questing im getting KS’d, usually by swordsman dash and kill all my mobs with 1 hit, my damage is already crap and then u have these A**holes everywhere…and im not going to party with such scrubs… all i can do is remembering their names, if u sit later with them in a dungeon u can be sure ill let them die as much as i can…im usually the helpful type, when i see someone in the open field with low hp, im throw a heal at them, someone dead i ress them, but on such people i see red. a shame there are no real consequences for them (btw most of them are no bots , at least on my level)

I experienced the KSing too when I was Priest (now Paladin).

+1 for the idea with a Healers Only guild, leaving everyone else on their own with no healers at all :smiley: :smiley:

I had some random dude follow me around and ks me on purpose for five minutes.

He got bored and went to do something else.

I had a lot of free time so I just followed him.

Then I ksed everything he wanted to kill for a few minutes then he logged out.

I needed to rest to regen and during that I went to the bathroom and got something from the kitchen.

Apparently he logged back on and was killing stuff so I went back to ksing him until he teleported somewhere so I didn’t know where he was anymore.

I regret nothing.

I feel the most people in this game are like bots, they aren’t bots but they feel like bots, because of their low intelligence and ignorance I guess this game is flooded by kids.

Shiiiit I was just grinding minding my own business when this archer comes up and starts KSing me. So I’m like whaever and I switchd channels. Turns out he switched channels TOO and kept following me around… in each channel too! What possesses someone to do this! Why is every class in this game other than cleric an asshat! Every time I’m trying to mob or kill anything somebody decides they want MY mob.

I know this game is supposed to go for RO nostalgia but having zero quality of life changes from recent popular MMOs is pretty shitty, I really think that GW2’s model for killing monsters is the best. Anyone who damages the monster gets loot and exp, no rage, no KSing, promotes people helping and social aspects. As it stands ToS has to be the most anti-social MMO I’ve ever played.

Edit: Also, in CBT, I was grinding in Chapel Storage when a dude came and KS’d the monsters I was fighting, then had the audacity to ask for a heal. LOL. I said f*ck no and left.

let’s be honest, the only real solution here is for people to grow up and learn respect.

(long version)
I’ve played a handful of MMOs where KS is possible but hardly anyone does it. and when it happens, people actually apologize. provided in some like LOTRO you probably have the whole area to yourself, but like I said, players in that game are generally courteous.

my gripe with f2p MMOs like ToS and hundreds more out there, is the “norm” that you’ll have to accept the reality of dealing with dbags and learn how to not let an incident ruin your day.

a toxic gaming community is what made me quit pRO 4 years ago–KSers, botters, scammers populate the game more than actual players–then I learned how other MMOs have found ways to discourage bad behavior and instead promote charity among the community.

modern MMO mechanics exist such as:

  1. uneven rewards between players who killed the same mob if not in a party–if it wasn’t your target first you don’t get the full reward, so you’d be forced to party or play nice and find your own mob

  2. even rewards among players regardless if in a party--and the devs promote it as helping each other out, parties have bonus rewards, so you’d be encouraged to find a static but not feel left out if going solo

  3. world events–GW2, TESO, and FFXIV have this, you stumble upon an area with mobs that may be relevant to your quest, so you’re encouraged to join others in clearing the event where you also get bonuses for killing 10 of such instead of just camping out

TLDR; solutions for KS are already implemented in other MMOs, IMC can follow suit instead of living in the dark age, we as players don’t have to suffer indefinitely

It isn’t just bots who KS. And it isn’t just solo cleric classes either.

I play C2 Priest and I have a friend who went Hoplite tank on this way to Cata for movement. We move completely off screen from people and taunt an area on a relatively dead map with maybe 5-6 people on it. And we STILL GET KSED.

Just last night I had a wizard think it would be hilarious to follow my priest around and KS stuff…until she died and I laughed at her. Then she came back AND TRIED IT AGAIN! And when I told her to stop being such a c…t and that she was going to die again if she continued, she told me to stop being an ass.

This is what’s wrong with people. I would love for IMC to actually take a page from old RO1 private servers and implement something like @noKS. It would solve this problem 100%. Until the mob is dead, if you’ve hit it physically (no, taunt and other skills don’t count) it becomes YOURS for 10-15 seconds.

It has literally got me to the point where anyone who comes over to steal what I have, I tell them to piss off.

If there is a solution then they should implement. I don’t know if they were just thinking they should do it like RO? I dunno why they didn’t except maybe if they only had played RO?

I think number one and three would be the best, number two can cause people to be lazy. (hit once and then do nothing to gain the same experience)

You know, normally i would have said the KSing rarely happens… but i started a new character and it happens everywhere now. For some reason it rarely ever happens on my main who is a cleric.

Actually.

It’s damage done/max hp based.

You get a procentual part of the exp… 50% damage done, you get 50% exp.

Take an exp viewer and test it with a friend. That’s how it works.
Only loot is based on who kills it 51%+ .

This game needs some command like the RO private servers, @noks or something like that.

Are quest kills damage based or last hit?

Damage at most times.

But get partys for those… it’s pointless to compete.
