Sitting while not in combat to increase HD makes sense.. You are resting, you heal faster. Hard to rest when someone is repeatedly shooting you in the head.
Sitting in duels - while something I, and certainly any half-good PvPer (not claiming I am one) have used to their advantage - is hardly skillful. Same goes for sitting in a BS skirmish too.
So, yeah. Sitting = evades to 0, AAD to 0, inflict -200 crit decrease as well.

Well sitting to increase HD still is needed in some hardcore duels, and it is a legal tactic so far. IF it gets changed, there has to be something that makes up for it in my eyes, because otherwise it is just another nerf for profs that do rely on it.
I KNOW that the occasions where you need to sit are rare, but there are some, and taking that away is just another unneeded nerf!! I DO understand it doesnt look right, but it still gives you an option, a choice, an alternative...
As i see it, the ballancing is all about minimizing our options, making pvp not only boring, but also uncreative and childish. If everything is getting easier and repetitive due to limited tactics and options, we will soon have scifi wow here, instead of our good old complex AO!
How many times has it been said in every way shape and form that this game isn't balanced and never will be balanced around duels. Soldiers never cease to find something to cry about I guess...
Sitting down is so epically stupid it really doesnt warrant any real discussion.
Don't be lonely anymore.
Look at your post, now back at mine. Now back to your post, now back at mine. Sadly, yours isn't mine, but if you stopped trolling and started posting legitimate comments it could look like mine. Look down, back up, where are you? You're scrolling through posts, reading the posts your posts could look like. Back at mine, it's a reply saying something you want to hear. Look again, my reply is now diamonds. Anything is possible when you think before you post.
I think they should fix RK first aid stims to be more like the SL ones. Better healing power that you actually need to make a logical choice before going into first aid lock recharge.
Sitting is dumb, imo. The heal delta should remain, but there should be drawbacks for gaining the increased HD tick. Setting AAD and Evades to 0 seems about right.

I think AO is the only game where sitting down is sometimes a better option than actually kiting or trying to LoS the opponent.
I'm so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I say.

Sitting has the greatest penalty of all - [B
As well as items like the IS nuke ring and etc.
So hypothetically you could kill someone while sitting.
Easiest fix is to disable sitting while in combat, and then drop sitting requirement from battle prepared kits.
Battle prepared kits/first aid stims are then your "extra healing" while in fight, as intended.

My corporate slavery came with a shiny decoder ring.
I'm all for nerfing evades and a big +crit chance increase for attackers. Don't remove HD...it's still very functional if you can sit out of LoS and that is totally plausible. However if you sit infront of someone yeah...they should be able to 100% crit you if you sit more than a few seconds. I say a few seconds because you shouldn't be penalized for using battle prepared kits.
I might be wrong but I though that sitting already increased the crit and hit chance (and agro)
