Re: Double hits occurr too often and easily

So I don't really understand your position here. Isn't it more than obvious, since I basically retype it in every post at one point or another anyway? My position is there's no need to implement an obviously unintentional exploit of the era. Rhaps gets what I'm sayin, although he acknowledges that ...

Re: Double hits occurr too often and easily

Nah Rose, he's just saying double hit is an exploit, which it is. Now dexxers randomly double hit, or double hit better than tank mages if this thread makes sense, so there's lots of tears from the mainly tank mage pvp crowd. What Grom doesn't get is that double hit is era accurate and therefore ev...

Re: Double hits occurr too often and easily

Grom, I addressed this in my post way above. Here is what I (and I think most people here) remember: - double-hits were pretty rare (my guess is because no one really understood swing timers and all that) - it wouldn't happen while you just had one weapon equipped the whole time I think people are ...

Re: Double hits occurr too often and easily

I think people are going too far with this NEA stuff, a large portion of the thread is players debating how you SHOULD be able to EXPLOIT a system, a bug/exploit that allows you to attack twice. No one else here finds it ridiculous that people are debating/defending how they should be able to time m...

Re: Double hits occurr too often and easily

A Double hit should be seen as a rare and skilled combat maneuver, not a frequently random occurrence. . I guess this is where we differ in opinion, since I am paying attention and readin what you guys are saying. Exploiting a mechanic that obviously was not intentional and an exploit to do double ...

Re: Double hits occurr too often and easily

Edit for Grom's sake: Mages CAN pull off the lazy double hit too, its just ALOT less frequent and has a way bigger timer delay due to dexterity. I know that, maybe you misread my point. People complain that dexers are getting double hits to basically insta-kill, which should be something people wou...

Re: Double hits occurr too often and easily

my question is this. Obviously people don't like double hit, who would, it gives you the chance of being at 100% hp then suddenly nothing, possibly dead. Obviously it was an unintended bug. So why are people complaining directly at dexers, but at the same time trying to justify a mage being able to ...

Re: UO the way it was - fun - Is it here?

Hopefully we get the type of player base that eventually enjoys the learning curve of pvp, practices, and has fun with the system in place here. And that's the point of this thread discussion, what makes UO fun. IMO, even if you find people who like the pvp mechanics here, what about the other aspe...

Re: New to UOSA

First, can anyone recommend an efficient way to build gold up on Second Age? I've had GM miners, GM smiths, fletchers, and have sold more bolts of cloth than I can number. What sells good here? You can go the gathering route, but it won't yield nearly as much money as you would get if you just make...

Re: UO the way it was - fun - Is it here?

Try reading the responses Grom. There are many instances that allow a swing to advance during movement like turns, lag, hitting obstacles, etc... there are many situations that make you stop for a quarter of a second to advance your swing. I read it just fine, not sure what your trying to prove. In...

Re: UO the way it was - fun - Is it here?

so you can swing on the run.. but only if you stop running??? I also find it strange that someone would consider it swinging on the run when to perform it you have to stop running. I certainly don't consider this "swinging on the run", but I guess it depends on how you define it. I would ...

Re: UO the way it was - fun - Is it here?

Clearly, you did not read a few posts back about how you can swing on the run.... Unless you stop, your swing won't be ready , and thus you won't be able to swing "on the run". Your first swing will be charged and ready to swing, as you were at one point stationary prior to chasing , and ...
