Elura and Raiakelia.

Syndal · **Posted:** Thu Oct 23, 2008 11:33 pm

Yeah, this is a rage delete. I am pretty pissed after getting ganked, then ganked while sleeping naked in Teron 2 minutes after getting back to life after the first death..and then getting voodooed about 30 seconds after getting back to life from the second death.

Special thanks to Faelyn, who is probably my favorite character I've interacted with in YEARS. And to Nashira, Xorvithien, and Tariel.

Take a look at Raiakelia's age and hours. Insane, I've been playing way too much.

I'll take a second and explain what I think has absolutely destroyed SK. Dulrik's [REDACTED] thing about ZOMG GROUP PK!

At any given time, 50% of the who list is lowbies/midbies/people that don't PK. 40% of the who list is on one "side" and the last 10% is on the "other side". Which at prime play time comes out to like 15 nobodies, 7-10 on one side, and 2-4 on the other side. Which results in a group of 6 or more people going around looking for..2 people? I mean seriously. Fantastic. Having even remotely even numbers is extremely rare, and that is usually when people DON'T want to PK, because OMGZ THEY MIGHT ACTUALLY LOSE!

You rage delete too much. You were the one who taunted too many people simultaneously, what did you expect? That each one of them would miss the chance to get back at you? IMO you lost the game when you thought you could take advantage of mimic and start random attacks to people, who finally uncovered you. I say stick around the game and try to play with more consistency; don't pull out things you can't handle with.

Syn has improved a lot lately. Seriously, I thought Elura would dissapear even faster than Vinziella or Kintaydin, but she stuck with this character for a while, even when things were not going well(blemished for so long, even Nashira was after her etc).

I've mainly interacted with Elura, from when she stuck with the Hand until her betrayal(if you can say that word). And it was fun.

I saw Raiakelia just a bit, interacted with her only on a handful of occassions, but it seemed like you had fun playing a sprite.

Anyway, GL with whatever you do. I know I will miss your chars(especially if they don't delete every 10 days

).

PS: A backpack made of the skin of Sh'gra'hanech the Despoiler contains:
the heart of Elura

I know I have won your heart. <3

I don't want to say I'm glad this happened to you, but now you know what it was like for Bromus. People liked to point to the two pks where there are logs of there being fighting with equal sides and totally ignored the 20 pks of six or eight against Bromus and a law NPC or Bromus and one or two other people.

I agree with your break down of the numbers. On a tiny mud like Shattered kingdoms where you're going to have 20-40 people on line at any given time it's hard to play against the gank squads which rove from faction to faction. Unless you've got six or seven faction members around it's rough. And if you do have that many faction members around then you are probably in a gank squad.

aww NOOO!

pah

well, I loved ALL of our RP! Faelyn and Elura were such a blast! I didn't get to know Raia very well, but i know if i woulda, it'd have been great too. I'm so going to pout over you deleting for a while

You're a pretty good player, but you seem to just focus on PK PK PK with every character that you've rolled lately.

I also find a flaw in your argument as you tend to [REDACTED] off every player group that you can and then can't handle the heat afterwards.

ladyjennbo · **Posted:** Fri Oct 24, 2008 5:12 am

Elura was a good character, but I'm going to agree with ardith here in regard to Raiakelia. I mean, you can't [REDACTED] off every cabal and be surprised when you're ganked.

Take a break and come back in a couple of months, hmm? SK =/= life

ladyjennbo · **Posted:** Fri Oct 24, 2008 5:15 am

But, okay, Raia was a really cute character when she wasn't out pissing people off <3

I really enjoyed our interactions. I am with lala though. So let the pouting begin.

Your characters are identical to your personality. I think you have a good handle of mechanics, and soon you would be one of the top pkers in the mud right now. You come up with your own pk strategies, and that's a sign of a great pker in the making.

I am disappointed our scout group together never worked out - I would really like to play a character with you that gave you a bit more survival capability and let you just roleplay, pk, and let you spread your wings. I saw potential in Kintaidyn, so I hoped for more - it's a shame.
