    Looks like you've really listened to pet profs concerns with the new pvp area.






    oh wait.
    This was what I was wearing. Tell me I asked for it

    The area really doesnt look that bad for pet profs, what would you prefer a wide open area with nothing in it? There's buildings players can jump on, but the pets can path up the old school buildings.

    So?

    "I know who coded pet pathing... and when I see him I say "/follow" and I start waling in to walls :P"

    The "Trolls" option is incorrect. The term trolls is not used to describe the gathering of information on the Internet.

    So, you honestly think that area looks good for pet pathing....

    If people kite around those buildings you may aswell terminate pets.

    Or move yourself to one of those larger open areas that I can see, if they are going to kill you they do need to actually come to you in the 1st place.

    Like I said before, short of making the whole thing just some empty zone with an outer wall, there's no way they can make a zone and not have pet pathing issues that players will have to work around.

    As far as I can see, the open spaces to the edge of the town is a poorly textured cliff, the open areas are much less than 40m wide allowing you to kite around buildings.

    There's an area of about 40ish in front of the bar, and then there's the whole other side of the map we haven't seen yet. There looks like there's most likely an open area between the 2 large towers as well.

    The map could do with having another blast hole in it that would be big enough for a pet based fight.

    Theres also the little matter of how much of the map is 0%, ive heard different opinions.

    Also, if I can fight omnis, will tabbing be changed to let me tab everyone with tab only?

    Kinda worrisome that the "new player experience" is described as extensive rework, and it'll go live with the graphics engine as I recall being said...

    Your post reminded me of how much I miss playing Dungeon Runners while waiting on raids to form up.... killing giant rat creatures with weapons named silly things like the "Cardboard Beaver Beater of the Awesome Dung Beetle" or the "Uber Amazing Longsword of Pure PWNage".

    could just make the pvp area a pit, nowhere to run and hide, about the same size as the decon chamber on the BS, fight till u die sort of thing, who cares about running around anyway, and staying alive is over rated! altho, some kind of kill counter in there for a vp reward would be fun, with a solo/team reward handed out when the BS starts.

    Yes. I think we need to lay some new foundations and test them before the engine comes out.
