Shattered Kingdoms

The same tactic indeed, that isn't what is being adressed, though.

Being able to gather guards in these numbers should be impossible.

I think it's more the fault of the particular script associated with the NPCs in the room, but I could be wrong.

It is the fault of a script. As I said, that amount was completely not on purpose. At least twice it was done by someone else (meaning eight of those NPCs had nothing to do with any of my CoN members.) Four other times it happened because of some failed spells, but that is about all that needs to be said and more. However, this is abusable. I don't plan on abusing it, but it would not be hard to do so.

I know for a fact that I have logged this three times including the one last night. The first time was after some hammer and peacekeepers ended up rift hopping in. The second time was recently, when one of the other NPCs ended up spawning only one of the NPCs in mass.

I will be sending an e-mail to Sadr and possibly Wert in order to see what is happening here and to find a fix.

No.

Are you accusing me of booby trapping? That is moronic if you have spent any time in Nerina.

This is an issue of a trib able to spawn a LOT of guards in one spot for ambushes because of a flawed script. No pot or kettle required.

I love how you quote me, instead of Cannibal here - as it was his statement I was supporting. You can clearly see this from your quote. We brought up how similar your complaint is to certain members of an ic organization who summon commonly used gating targets in front of the judge in a certain city that you happen to have control over.

Pot and kettle are still required, and are sold separately.

Alright, keep in mind I have no idea how this works at all.

Uh, yes, this is -VERY DIFFERENT- /unless/ those NPCs were already somewhere in the game and not just extra ones that got spawned somehow. Seriously, that room right there has more guards than I think all of Nerina. If doing this requires as much effort as summoning that many guard NPCs into one room, leave it alone IMO. I somehow seriously doubt it does though.

Just to make things clear, I wasn't accusing anyone of anything.

-I- used to have those booby traps set up myself. I was wondering if they were considered the same thing because I would not personally want to get cursed for it in the future.

Two things you need to know.

First of all, we are talking about really low level guard NPCs with [REDACTED] EQ that shouldn't be a real threat to any of the high lvl PCs in the game.

Also, this place sucks for traps. Opening rifts to other places in the same general area can be much more deadly with slight preparation. Plus back then it would result in really bad things(read: banishments). And here is a small example.

Generally though, the script is needed. Perhaps it should be removed from some NPC in that room, because I see that CoN members nowadays "abuse" it and this makes me a sad panda. But I consider this script necessary for at least 2 other NPCs in this area.

PS: This script actually becomes a pain in the [REDACTED] for any CoN member who uses certain abilities of the law NPCs. I know if I was an enemy of the CoN, I'd try to use it once in a while to cause big trouble to CoN members.
