Well, you still have the 30sec rule when leaving a pvp zone, right?
So anyone abusing the system could still be delt with.

True, but running and hiding among the spectators can buy some time there and possibly be enough to make it.

Don't misinterpret me though, I'm going to miss the opportunity to watch the battle from a safe zone like last time, but if some cheating can be avoided by this, then so be it.

Seriously Marco, after such a long time of "T+Y" you call it exploit? If it really was an exploit why not fix it and leave it there for 2 years?
This proves that 1. you are unable to fix your bugs and "exploits" or 2. you are fuckin´kidding us lol.
After 100 pages in this thread ppl would have calmed down and accept this and things would have been back to normal as they have always been in moments like that, but what was the point of that comment? :/

Thats is completly true.. However:

What you can do under those 8 extra seconds is still not the question.
The question is, how much does the mob regen during 8 extra seconds.
I say that i agree that, yes, sometimes this will result in a extra shot.
But you cant compare it to that you are able to fire 8 shots and do 350 damage, cause that is irrelevant.

Follow me?

Yeah, i'm gonna miss watching too but on the up side, i'll save some ME.

This is a sad day.

Marco, stop imposing new taxes on the population of Entropia.

Enough is enough.

Am I the only one who interpeted the comment of T + Y being an exploit that Marco made a joke (or am I wrong and he is serious)?

[fluKe]

Have you ever hunted a mob with decent HP zabler? 8 seconds can make a HUGE difference in terms of money spent to kill it. Go hunt some new style ambus, and tell me those 8 shots mean nothing.

I think u should spend more time playing before you make idiotic statements that are unfounded and can not be supported with evidence.

[MarcusLucius]

well marco, the right word spoken at the right time can do wonders
that will be interesting how u clear that up

I believe Marco was just joking. There are a lot of things in EU that don't work as they were intended to work, but MA puts them on the back burner because they aren't high priority. For instance, did you know that coats were never intended to drape over your thigh and shin guards? It was a glitch that they showed over armor, but people became used to it so MA decided to keep it that way after the new graphics update.

I really don't see this as a huge deal... If anyone is dying that often then maybe they should look into better armor/skills/fap or a mob that better fits their hunting ability.
