KS Question...

Ahh, yes some people do that for those monsters. Elite monsters have a lower spawn rate in maps, and it would be best for people who need the kill for quests [probably] to party up so they can all get the kill. Best decision, however some people don't go with it, that's why it happens. But kill stealing is still kill stealing.

I still stand on your original point of view... I dont see how her justification is correct.

Yes, it may be a logical idea to party up and get 2 quests done at once, but that doesn't mean they have to. Maybe that guy is killing piggy bat hoping to get a T2 Vitality Recipe scroll instead of for quest, he wouldn't wanna kill the bats only to have it go into someone else's inventory.

I do not expect to be KSed just because I rejected a party invitation. In another words, I don't see how sending a party invitation gives you permission to KS someone...

If it's a rare/low spawn rate mob.. then you hang around for it to spawn...

You don't go and KS someone else's Zombie King just coz it's a low spawn rate mob...

First in, first served, if you're not there to get 1st hit, it's not yours. If you hit it, you're KSing.

Don't let her weird theory ruin your great morals!

Elite mobs or not, kill stealing is ftl. Big no-no~ I hate finding piggy bats and I'd hate it if I spent a long time running around to get the few piggy bats I need, then have someone kill stealing me when I didn't do anything wrong.

So, it's really not okay~~~

I've had multiple occasions while soloing mara and marlone where people tried to party me and then ks'd afterward(Still got the kill/drops). I didn't need it for the quest and I already had a full party.

Kill Stealing = Don't, ever.

There is no justification for KSing. Even Ksing because they KS'ed you first is still wrong. Two wrongs do not make a right. KSing is KSing, no matter what excuse you use.

Kill stealing is kill stealing. You cannot justify it in any way.

I have refused multiple party invites while soloing and have been KS'd. As a full END Fighter what I can do is run around and collect mobs and come back near that person without Mocking. If that person decides to KS again those mobs will just go to him. :3

Yes, I'm partly evil.

**Hessah** · 06-03-2008, 03:18 AM

I believe the only time you can go and hit someone else's mob is when they're yelling "HELP!!!"

but when they ask for help, its not call KSing, so... yeah... still no valid reason to KS someone kekeke

Usually, unless it's a mage or fighter(lower leveled mind you) I will pull mob's off of one person that isn't partied when he's being attacked by more than 2. If it's two I usually stun one or demoralize the group. So far I haven't been yelled at so I guess I am lucky.

I agree most of what Hessah said, so I quoted a bunch of stuff ^^ I hope you don't mind :P
If I wrote something, I'd be repeating everything she said :P
