Re: Still Pathetic

I openly apologize for tactics I've used in the past that could be considered cheap and I'm going to make a conscious effort to create more valuable pk across all of my alts.

I would like to note that for Nicotine, this will not make me any less of a "fleebie". For thieves, I can think of only a ...

Re: ouch! thread

Yeah, same as if you flee out, double-line back in and stab. Shadowstep timer makes it just barely possible if you have 0 fleelag to begin with, because if you have any then the timer becomes too long to pull it off. I think stab brick lag should be downed to avoid this.

Pros: they do decent damage

Cons: they are hard to make, they have a chance to break, if you don't kill the target then you lose any that hit them, if they have short blades or projectiles pracced they can throw them back at you, the timer is unpredictable so it's hard to spam and you might end up ...

Re: Shield Block

It lags you if you lower the shield, whether prematurely or if you let the timer run all the way through. Notice how many pulses of your bash went through between me lowering and raising again. Other than that, it will defend against any incoming bash, not just from the guy you're engaged on.

The woods here become very thick again. In addition, the bear pine shrubberies

Re: Master Prefix Titles

Make them only available to remorts rank 8+
Or have different prefix titles for regular masters and remort masters.

Regular master - Elite Nicotine
Remort master - Master Nicotine

We need more suggestions for what we would actually name them though. I can't think of many good ones.
