What the fuck is wrong with Armageddon?

They all fell into a hole and died a few months back, too.

They're also things that staff (and GDB ultra-retards like spawnloser) used to vehemently defend and justify, refusing to acknowledge that there was anything wrong when shit like that happened. I once complained about the fact that climbing will occasionally cause you to land on your neck and knock you unconscious even if you're climbing one room from ground level. Someone actually said "well, Zalanthas is a harsh world."

I was like, what? It has the gravity of a dying star or something?

I think they've either removed that "feature" since or reduced the chance from a ridiculous 5% to something miniscule, because it hasn't happened to me on any recent character even though a couple of them climbed frequently.

a fall from a (minimum) one story drop onto ur -neck- should leave u grateful to have even survived, much less avoided permanent damage. the crit fail is exactly that nightmarish freakshow slip and fall that would get u fucked up for landing wrong

this is what the fuck is wrong with Arm. the huge opposition to change or revising old and outdated aspects of it. i honestly don't belief staff have justification for most of the game (why do combat skills take so long to learn? why aren't there clan-specific bonuses for being a Tor scorpion for example? why is agility so worthless?) beyond it's there because that's how the game has always been.

no i get what ur saying, but the minimum 'one story' thing was used to put the size of whatever room ur climbing in in context. i say minimum because in the city succeeding got u to the first floor of a building, whereas wilderness areas are scaled as much larger space per room. so a critfail climb neckfall with a shitload of stun is reasonable when the room size is accounted forall u were bitching about before was this thogetting knocked out in the span of climbing in a space roughly equal at the smallest to a one story fall is reasonable and doesnt require the 'gravity of a dying star'. a critfail is technically also a failed climb check (even if the code is stupid sometimes and doesn't register that when u go unconscious in the room u critfailed in) so its irrelevent whether ur going up, down, west or east when it happens. the implication with climbflagged rooms is that is these places are perilous enough that climbing is the only way to pass thru them, so bitching about the code (if its about anything more than the 'frequency' which u say they changed) may just reflect u being out of touch with gw reality of where ur at or they need to update their room descs and switch around the climbflagged rooms to reflect the dangerousness of some of the rooms

if they wanted it to be less binary then an alternative 'tweak' would be limit critfails only to certain directions maybe just up and down; this would also solve the prob of critfails when ur going through nswe rubble in the wastes that theyve decided arent really that dangerous

sure is, but stun code is a bitch and if ur falling from any reasonable distance (a matter of feet even) onto ur neck, u should get fucked up period and poss knocked out unless ur tough as hell and werent trying to be guarding/scanning/watching/waying ur fuckbudy midway up the wall.

anyone that isnt also bitching about being able to be knocked out in a few hits, barefisted, while wearing a helmet has no leg to stand on to argue about how unrealistic it is to get knocked the fuck out after critfailing a climb and landing a freakshow fall within a story's distance onto ur -neck-

so just like a lot of other areas of the game its some clumsy code thats trying to reflect and give some danger to what happens when u fuck up and fall the wrong way when ur doing some dangerous shit (like 'slipping and cut urself' even if u emote dripping the poison on the flat of the blade while wearing mekskin gloves) but ill take those risks over making shit that much more dangerfree for chars to pursue

tweak it as necessary if the frequency is too high, but i have no sympathy for no ones theyre spamfailing multiple times and end up damn near breaking their neck in the process

I feel like Lizzie would be the kind of person to tell you you're doing something wrong through thick, overly verbose emotes along the lines of: looks at you blankly, totally not understanding how you don't get the vernacular, newb.

she's not a superstar. she's been playing long enough that staff let her walk the thin line between debating and trolling - that's all. come on, staff don't even want her on staff. people like you get banned because you get all impassioned and start preaching about the establishment, then somebody calls somebody a cunt in the nerdiest way possible, and it's gg.


edit: or, in your case, you just blatantly ignore their several warnings and decide to toe (oops) the line.
