Would it be worth having an effect that shows someone is rezz sick?

[illu]

I'm thinking more 1on1 or looking at people leaving keeps - it's really annoying risking life and limb, and most of the time dying, to get the dreaded message "Fred has been killed recently - you just killed yourself for 100RP mwhahaha"
Or even better "Fred was killed a few seconds ago when you weren't looking - have 0RP"

I was thinking a similar effect to warlocks but with a green ball that goes around your head would be handy, you could fight people knowing it would be worth fighting them. Maybe people would steamroll less knowing you are worth 0 or reduced RPs.

How would this affect 8v8 fights? Would people who are rezz sick be targeted quicker as they are weaker?

What would be the pro's and con's?

I think it would be handy to have.

I think its quite a cool idea actually

personally im amazed that after all these years people STILL believe that rezz sickness has anything to do with the realm point value timer at all.

They are entirely two different things and not linked together in any way. Rezz sick or not you will still not be worth realm points until the specific timer is up, which was reduced in length for NF. They are roughly the same length of time now but completely independant.

I think people know it's a timer and not based on RS, but it's just easier to say "oh he was RS" than saying "oh, he had died recently so we gained less rps"

Well, that's what I do anyway

If they are moving you no they are rez sick as they move slow rez sick is retarded, maybe lower it to 30 secs or maybe so you can't fight till it as gone some people take great pride in running out when rez sick

RP timer is half the RS timer.

 

[Lorimez Shadowblade]

Nice idea, I prefer . . .

A huge green neon light with the flashing words 'GANK ME I'M WEAK - SCREW THE RPEES THINK OF YOUR EPEEN WHEN YA KICK MY ASS' above your head

Sure as heck would making ganking rs players worth while :touch:

The worst part is, if you are attacked by someone when rez sick, then manage to kill them, you get ''you have been killed recently and earn reduced realm points!'' never made any sense to me, ''ok you killed someone with a significant disadvantage but you get less rps for it as it was obviously much easier'' :/

Game is built around rvr, which means keep defense. The point of the timer is you're not supposed to cure rs and buff up on borderkeep, then port right back to keepsiege and earn full rps when you for example, suicide-bomb enemies.. then repeat etc.

 

[Varna]

Bad idea - keep it as it currently is.

 

[[NO]Subedai]

though if sum1 is rs they have been killed recently is a given lol

 

[Sharkith]

what you mean then is would it be worth having an effect that showed someone is worth RPS?

Yes a little Ball with a the RP number in it. And it automaticly change depending if you grouped / added or similar.

I meant RPs yes. I just think it would be handy knowing that you are going to get RPs for what is a lot of the time a suicide effort at killing someone.

It kind of makes the journey more worthwhile.

would be nice when ure solo, but doubt it would have any effect on fg fights

I like your style!!!

 

[Sollers]

It's prolly because of your odd sense of logic that you have no rep

 

[Fanguir]

It's a good idea , but think also that if a fg kills a solo they should get no rps or negative rps . Maybe when u get targeted it would show that u r solo or grped somehow.

Where is the challenge for a fg to kill a solo player?uke:

 

[Loverman]

An idea

Here's an idea:

Stop camping the enemy docks, bridges where people most of the time are still rezzill while running from the teleport-keep.

 

[Elrandhir]

No need for anything when sickness as he moves slower, and something showing how much RP's you would be worth is just silly.
