Gate Hoppers BEWARE!!!

[Mikel123]

Theres a book in my castle library called "Town fishing"

I love when people go through my gates, Those that do not help stuck (NOT ERA ACCURATE) Die instantly. Most of the stealthers are banned anyway.

I would really be for the removal of help stuck out of houses. atleast instant help stuck, make it last a minute or two like going to town. At the moment people exploit the hell out of it. They run in houses, help stuck out to get a few extra inches away from me pking them, garbage like that. People use it to get out of their houses without recalling or risking opening the door. And people are totally safe being house loot stealthers becuase of it. It not accurate, lame and needs to be changes.

Couldn't they just walk back out the gate they walked into? How the heck does someone "die instantly" in your house? Especially when they apparently have enough time to click Help, then click Stuck. I'm confused.

Dispell field on the gate in my castle + Lots of dragons..

Duh

I can intrupt recall, i cant intrupt help stuck. And half the time they already have help stuck up before they go through the portal. This is wrong.

I actually love gate hoppers and town fishing; I intentionally have a portion of my homes open and available for people to come through. I have several different types of containers trapped, and most people (I'd say 90%) who jump in immediately think they have an opportunity for free loot so they open the closest (also trapped) container as soon as possible.

House design does play a major role, it's a lot harder to get people to blow themselves up in towers vs a large patio.

Even the veteran players seem to fall for it. Something about the containers, they simply cannot refuse opening to find out whats inside.

I think you got me on that one once. Usually, my thinking is that is it is rare that people leave trapped boxes in their homes, so if the person is home, it is worth taking a peak. If they're not home, bring out the telekinesis...

GM detect and disarming FTW. Don't need a thief to houseloot.

Also:
DblClick by type (blue moongate)

Better dispel fast.

I also didn't know you could help stuck instantly out of a house. Good info!

I go through gates out of curiosity. I have no intention of dieing. If i suspect someone is luring me through a gate to kill me i'll just go back in the gate grab some pets and eat you with dragons.

If someone is luring you they have already dispelled the gate on their end before you even come through...

If someone is that intent on killing me and have the gate dispelled i already have help stuck ready to go. and a neat lil recall button.

It's a small server and i will see you again. It's not like we are all random people like osi. Not only will i come prepared next time, i'll prepare anyone i see in your vicinity to do the same.

Just open the gate from a boat in the middle of the ocean. No where to run, no where to hide
