How about a timer on any priest that isn't inside a town? Get killed in a dungeon? Revive at the priest. Get killed again? Dungeon priest is counting down a 60 minute timer for you, so now you have to travel back to town. Another thought is to revive as 'grey' with a 10 or 15 minute timer...

A recurve bow of even dubious quality would absolutely not 'snap like a twig' from a sword hit. You guys need to go outside and/or use your brain for a second. If I got a long knife and swung it as hard as I could at you and you swung a branch of a tree at it as if you were trying to hit a...

Horn pepper is not great because it picks like a flower. Capsicum is good, but can be hardish to find. Wolfbrush is the easiest to find option but you need a lot of it and it picks slow, but comes in 25 unit nodes (unlike 5 for flowers and horn pepper). The best horse food you can get near...

Okay, just to jive you an update: I was originally planning on leaving JC at the end of today, but upon investigation it turns out that the hooks and line you want will cost a lot. Just over 100g, which is a lot more than I have at hand since I've been buying skillbooks for myself with the gold...

A high level horse in good armour is already on the threshold of making MA insufferable. Fragile horses are a good thing.

Yeah, you're right. But in equal circumstances it will always be easier to hit something with a laser than with a catapult, you know?

Not gonna lie - I like 'Waterworld' and idgaf if movie snobs are disgusted by it.

What are your reasons for not thinking it's true? Most people I know will cite the hitscan mechanic of magery to be the one most significant advantage it has in PvP over archery, and I wholeheartedly agree with them.

It's not weird at all. It's normal. Ever see a child try to get past a platforming level that is too mechanically difficult for them? Ever see a pro player make a misplay in a tournament? Ever see ANY PERSON EVER play a video game and have trouble? People become emotionally invested in...

A mounted archer is a lot like an interceptor in EvE: They don't do a lot of damage solo, but they are fast and sticky and can bog you down long enough for their friends to arrive. Given equal skill in a 1v1 between a MA and a footie, I'd put my money on the footie every time. I think that...

I'd be fine with random skill loss on death from the action side for PKs who are griefing. The only problem is that I can't see a way to automatically differentiate griefing from reasonable PvP. I wonder if it's even possible. My best advice to you if you are having problems with getting...

I see this argument all the time here and on the Discord, and it always makes me wonder: "Do these people think there is only one type of PvP in Mortal? If not, do they really believe that every type of PvP is healthy for the game?" I think that casting a one-size-fits-all blanket over PvP is...

I don't hate it. If you're a bad tamer, you can't tame a full health animal without running after it a million times. That's your punishment for having low skill. If horses (or anything) stood still after a failed tame attempt, a person would just be able to keep trying forever until they...

I live in JC and I'm probably going to leave sometime in the next week or so once my primary business here is complete.. Gold is exceptionally easy to make in the jungle, so I'll buy this stuff and haul it to Tindrem for you if I can. There is a non-zero chance that I get killed along the way...

The consequences come from your peers, not from invincible policeman guards. As early as the 18th century in America, codified common law was not able to be sufficiently enforced by the government on the frontier. Does that mean murderers ran rampant at that time? No. What happened was that...

I think the majority of people consider magery to be more effective at PvP than archery. I do.

Yeah, that's sort of what I'm getting at - only I actually think that marksmanship is a very useful skill. Being able to ignore the helmet's armour is extremely good value; but what you've said is right: If you're not aiming for center mass, you're going to miss far more often than you hit -...

Unless you have magery or a mage friend, MA PvP is just firing a couple impotent shots until your horse gets low HP and you have to run away to bandage. I have EXTREME difficulty believing that a MA will stomp a non MA unless one of the following is true: 1) The MA has much higher quality gear...

The lead singer from Metric is my very favourite vocalist in the whole world. Mezzo-soprano is a register that just hits my brain the right way. Her name is Emily Haines and she's from British Columbia. She has a couple projects, but this band is likely the most famous.

A great Canadian band: July Talk. Frontman gives me strong Tom Waits vibes. The female vocalist is a bombshell, too. I'd drag myself through a field of broken glass just to hear her whisper my name.
