The person we ks'ed came over and said not to ks her and how it was unfair cause she wasn't in a party. But only after i appologized to her first for my team mates.
It got me thinking though, if we ks her - she gets the kill, the items, saves hit points, saves time, all at the expense of a few exp points, which is what would happen if she were in a party. sounds like more pros than cons - like i said not enough experience in this matter myself.
Is it just a bad rumor that got spread around? Seems like Outspark evens things out when people kill a monster together who aren't in a party. e.a. Sharing Jewel Grave Robbers in Luminous Stone? I dunno - I'm just playing this game for the EXP - not ksing anyone myself

Since this whole scene seems very familiar - Let me try to explain something. If you KS - you get the kill shot and the person who needs the mob does not get credit for the kill. Yes, they get a share of the experience points, and if they do the most damage then the drops are available to them, and they do not have to use as many HP/SP/pots and stones. However, they do NOT get credit for the kill and they must continue to stay in Marlone's Hideout until they get the kill shot on 12 archers, even after the party has run off to do their thing. This then uses even more Hp/SP stones and pots. The only time it is beneficial is when in a party.
Comments welcome. Flaming not.
BTW - I rather like the way you remember that situation.
