PvP rocks, I love it. I love fighting and do not always feel it has to result in a kill which has me probably less hardcore than others who will only fight to kill.Greywolf wrote:Don't be too bothered about the ganging up on Irk. I don't get involved in PvP myself but I think Irk does and so probably expects stuff like that every once in while. PvP is a favorite pastime of many players and is actively encouraged by the admin so it is a big part of Genesis. Unfortunately there is no way to opt out of it though.
The ganging up is a natural consequence of the mechanics of the game.
Even with crowd control etc the proximity of safe rooms you can enter with no delay, link death out (like Irk did - which is considered cheating btw, but no one cares about that), portals and speedwalking. Well it is very difficult to kill someone.
But we were given fresh motivation to try by Irk being involved in 4 myths + 1 killing a rising hero and a titan the day before.
And you see in the log it failed.
Just as someone might feel you were wronged by me, a different side to the same coin etc and come after me in numbers...
When you start getting involved in these battles, you DO have to expect to be targeted in revenge.
Which is why it is hard to get into, tip your toe in the water and your likely to get get pulled in and devoured by sharks and piranhas, until you give up the idea of swimming or turn into one yourself.
