I'd like your opinion about players who love to steal your kill, especially giants. For example, there you are with a giant that you found, and ou're halfway through dealing with it and suddenly someone else comes and takes your kill.

any positive or negative remarks are welcomed

well, if your already halfway on a giant and are still attacking it, your cumulative damage will be larger than the player who comes in and attempts to ks u. that being said, if you were less then halfway and they are a totally higher lvl than u, then that suks and that ticks me off
but what REALLY ticks me off is when im runnin to a mob then a damed 2 hell archer fires off its stupid little"anti-devil crap" or its "strong bow crap" and totally kills the mob, stealing precious time and exp

Archers....ah the snipers. Especially the bots!

Heh, usually when someone continually ks's me, i tell them to knock it off and if they dont, i start KDing everything they attack and that either makes them apologize and stop, or try and murder you.(Happened once) But usually the best way is to just move to a different spot.

^well, If I accidently fire off at a monster someone was just about to run to attack, I usually apologize to them... Because I know that not many other builds get the privilege to snipe people's kills so easily.

But alot of other times I get also ksed by goldbotting glaviers that come and 1-hit my kill... one of the mobs they killed even got a sosun drop..

Yah I use to be an archer and know how it is, you go antidevil and then someone closer hits it before you launch and after you get the kill they start yelling kser.
Bots are also a pain, but yesterday i dragged a level 70 mob i had found and killed a couple of botters

sosun drop????oh that breaks the heart!!!!

i dunno but at my lvl we dont ks like if u c againt u say "MINE" and peps "fock off " lol neway ksing at lower lvl is tipical but ksing at higher lvls.. dats just "noob"

for me giant monsters are a 50/50 chance, somehow or rather ppl just love to join in, at first I did shout "it's mine" but nobody listens anymore so i just wait until the giant's HP drops to 20% pr so and then go bezerk and hope i get the final kill. Works most of the time.

But when someone who is not a bot KS an ordinary monster (not even a champ) while you're halfway with it, that just pisses me off....esp when there's plenty spawning arnd. Come on there's enough for everyone, its not like they are going to stop spawning.

Well certain areas i'm SP farming i don't mind when ppl. go after champs or giants because then i just clean up on what i was there to kill in the 1st place...To be honest i don't think giant drops are worth the time and effort..atleast not @ lvl 16..

As for the lil monkey that grabs gold..eh well it use to bother me but now i don't pick up gold so i don't care...drops pay my bills so more kills more drops more money and SP keeps clickin...I love it when i am on a killing spree and 5 ppl. around me stop to pick up all the gold and i just keep killin...

KSing happens at all levels. People are more likely to respond positively if you as k nicely (please don't ks). When you start to be a dick people harass you.

As for Ksing in general if you can't deal with it move. Kill things lower level so you can 1 hit them, get a guild mate to help you annoy them enough to move or just move yourself. Keep in mind they can do the same.

k if ur a blader spam kd when fighting a giant
it helps and ull most likely get the kill

if ur a bow/nuker plz dont complain bout ksing

ppl ksing giants will alwayz happen
at higher lvls atleast some more mature or nicer ppl will leave u alone with ur giant.

Sometimes when I'm about to kill something (say a earth taoist) I use my fire nuke and just when I start running, someone esle attacks it and you're unable to stop the skill so you fire the nuke and get the kill.

Well, there was this one chick (near the demon horses) and she kept KSing, so i turned around and shot her once, she then chased after me and nearly killed me. I then learnt from that, and now i ask people to stop. If they dont, i use my bow and KS them, that pisses them off.

I dont mind if anyone KS my Giants, altho champs and regular mobs can be a pain.

What's worse is when you are 2-3 people in an area with low spawnrate, or you're in an area where you're basically killing the respawn to get exp, and someone else just comes there and starts killing +_+

ks? i love ksing other people's giants. but i will not be such a ass to actually ks other people's normal or champion mob...

believe me there are such asses in SRO.....

there is a type of people where u ks his giant and he FOLLOW u around and kill any monsters u are killing...


those people are ass...

Well I got ks'ed a few times. Last time I was kinda angry and I killed the one who ks'ed me. But I lost 12% xp to get rid of my murder status.
I wont do that again. If someone ks your giant or you see someone about to start ask friendly to let him stop. Otherwise just go annoy him as he annoys you. (As reformat says he doesnt like, I just say an eye for an eye ...)

Um...personaly i think that you cant really ks a giant, unless a lvl 70 comes up and one shots the monster when ur like lvl 20, but besides that basically you get over it or follow them around and ks them. I dunno i have never really had a person that like actually ran around and ks me everytime but if they did i would just pm them and hope they stop.

Yes they can. Either they are higher as you said or they KD your giant (I really hate that when I am already doing a giant, a sword or blade user comes a long, KD's your giant a few times) and then get the kill and takes everything. I 'lost' a SOS bow 32 like that (I'm currently lvl 41) .

Giants have tons of health, they are for everyone to kill, if you dont want anyone to kill it then drag it to a corner and hope no one finds you, i mean yes, it does suck that you lost ur sos whatever but ppl kill giants for the exp. not for the drops. Not only that, did u even ask the person to stop b/c you want the kill, ppl could get mad at me b/c i walk up and start attacking thier giant but they dont even ask me to stop.
I mean all and all its never gonna stop and everyone is gonna get over it, but little things can solve problems like this.

Yep. I ask/say mostly I can kill it on my own. Most ppl just go on.

haha...ks is....part of the game..

agreed!

I sometimes take act in a Ks of a Giant,but that's only sometimes,like the poster above me said,giants are for everyone,therefore it's always such a slug-fest around them,they all want the kill,and the drops.

You blink,you stink.

"We dont talk about KS in stronghold"

^^This is the most important thing to remember when u're farming in bandit's den. Stop whining! Anyone with a sos bow will hit any archers/bandits in their range. If u're using blade/glavie/spear, dont blame others.

One suggestion to all whiners at bandit's den, go downstairs and u will get better kill rate then u get when u're close to anyone with a sos bow.

Well I am the way around. I dont like it when I am like 3-5 mins busy killing a giant getting them to 50% and some kd char comes along goes bezerk and kd/kills. I get very mad then. (expecially if someone does it again with a second giant, where I asked him already NOT to kd the previous giant I was killing)

haha...this type of situation suck...

i will try not to really ks that guy with my 4-arrow combo whichever mobs he's killing..

I hate that! I mean I will be attacking a white tiger giant and suddenly some hunter Thinking there helping out kills the giant in like 2 hits...it pisses me off... but hehe thats why I'm a thief with a glavie/blade
