Attacking through keep doors

[etaew]

i know wizzies can pbaoe through door but i was wondering is it legal to hit ppl through door just we were on a keep raid today and a sb was standing ont he other side of the keep paing us through the door... kinda got annoying. whats the views? personally its unrealistic being able to hit through doors and should not be allowed in game

/edit for spelling

Hitting people through the doors is the only fun melee's can have in a keep defense

nah steps for fun in keep defence:
1. head outside
2. smack things

if they are smacking on the doors and you go outside to hit on things you wont live very long =/... well i didnt when i was stupid enought to try

lol ah well another keep raid wiped out.. <continues to whine and curse> finished now <hates aoe dotters>

Its not bug abuse as long as you can hit back, which you can through doors, stated by GOA many times.
To be honest if I can get PBAEd to hell through a door or floor (Lord rooms) Im sure as hell going to PA through doors as long I live.

<sobs> i see many more deaths ahead of me then

As you can target people outside the keep before going in and hitting them, it's perfectly legit... the people he hits can hit him back.

Targetting people as they 'lag through' a door is a bit of a grey area, but then it happens on both sides, so it's something we all have to live with.

If the realism factor is a problem, think of it as if the defender is sticking his sword through the hole that you hacked out of the door he probably spent a fortune on repairing/upgrading

3. die horribly


anyway, it's not gonna get fixed anytime soon :<

Whacking on a keep door without defenders pouring hot oil over you is a bit unrealistic too

 

[Shike]

pfff, all realms hit lagghosts and such at keepraids...

and bringing in the word "realistic" into a forum that concerns daoc... well... you believe in santa claus Etaew?

 

[etaew]

Don't listen to Pepsay, he died in Thid back in the old days to my pbaoe when Hib attacked CK... remember that Pepsay?

FYI, that was the only time I ever got to use pbaoe in keep defence.... ever

[old.SadonTheGrey]

Ah, it was a long time ago, you can't expect 100% accuracy

 

[old.Pepsay]

Indeed

Keeps should have murder holes between the 1st and second door

Best fun for melee at a keep defense...

1. Get a corpse summoner up (just in case)
2. Get in a group with a 39 spread healer
3. Buff up & wait for healer full power
4. Head outside
5. Kill stuff

 

[old.SadonTheGrey]

Nah, its better to reroll a casting class ^^

><

 

[etaew]

nah just stand on the walls armsman can xbow them and paladins can taunt them

 

[parisienscot]

Tanks always moan about not having anything to do during keep takes / defence.

Make catapults!! They are seriously soooo much fun!

Isnt Hibernia the only realm on Prydwen that can have a usable Corpse Summoner in Mid or Alb?

 

[Gimly]

I think its

Alb can have one in Mid
Mid can have one in Alb
Hib can have one in both Alb and Mid.

Oh and NS/Infs/SB's can PA you when they are only half way up the wall on a climb point how the hell you meant to target them against that?

Had it happen to me and could not target him.. when I did it would tell me he was to far away.. while he was hitting me (NS that is)
