Ok seriously? Four troll mobs and two pcs and someone can lunge past all that and hamstring me while i hide in a corner? and ontop of that it nixes my mvs and my db..so basically its the troll rogue killshot. Cuz honestly i can barely move halfway through a zone after it..and im already being hit unbashed so lets just make it super easy to finish me off. Just not gonna give any pk to blademasters cuz this is a little over the top and its not just me saying it..

Uh oh :P Thieves actually have something to worry about now?? You can hide in cities and be home free. Dagger dmg, especially on lion etched, is awesome. (So much so that I fought a abs basher who used daggers for melee today. Talk about old mud) Pstrike can cut through any defense. Shield parry can nix a basher most of the time.

No lets check me. Hamstring: cuts 4 db and reduces move regen for 2 ticks. Hardly that big of a deal.

In my exeprience, hamstring has always cut 6 db on me and the effect lasted about 3-4 tics I'd say.

I don't really see any problem with hamstring, though, except maybe for the fact that you can hamstring a hiding PC while you're engaged on a mob.

As for the "thieves being able to run and hide in cities all day long" argument, all it takes is 1 thief on your side to track me or a channeler to loc me and it's game over.

Locate + gate will only waste their sps and cause you to run to another random room in a city of like 20 random rooms. :P

Channelers have almost no chance against thieves.

Like i said last night my only real problem with hamstring is that you can be fighting 2 pcs and four mobs (taking little to no dmg like last night) and just fling past them all and find me in a corner and precisely cut my leg.. Thats a little absurd..=P
