Law immunity is one of the very few perks to being in a Tribunal. Learn to deal with it.

All this whining always seems to come from people who are unwilling to join a Tribunal, because you don't get 5 shiny new abilities to play with.
So as an enemy horde bears down on the city, I imagine most tribunals members are thinking: "Thank god for the perk of law immunity. There's absolutely no way I can stop this on my own and since I can't pardon anybody that helps out, it's going to be a cold day in hell before I can convince most anyone to help me out, but thank god for one of the few perks I have being law immunity!" Yeah... quite the perk here.

Law immunity means you can do whatever you want. This means that somebody has to instigate war and be turned in before you can do anything.

Then man the hell up and get over joining a Cabal for haxxor skills and join your local tribunal.
So when you are in a tribunal and another friendly tribunal is under attack?... No? Never happens?

What exactly is banishment? A player decides at their whim to bring it, and the only way to get out of it to be unbanished. As long as that doesn't happen there's no getting out of that either. With this you can also be pardoned, OR your factions come to a truce. In other words this is still easier to get out of.

Bro, what's with the "OUTside the LAW" crap? If you went out and murdered a murder, you're still going to jail. Real talk..
The term outlaw means outside the protection of the law. The point was that it was not a crime to kill an outlaw. Sorry, just a side rant, since I still say that should be an option available to tribunals, but I know this isn't going to happen, so you can take a point for this one if you'd like.

The only needed fix to the law code currently is that you shouldn't be reported for crimes if you are grouped with a Tribunal member.
... I'll let Rodwen's response stand for this one.

auto assist off - at least use to work. Not sure of that anymore though. :(

There could be a tweak needed.

The problem is that if you are with said trib member, you should basically have law immunity while being grouped.

Code:
Deputy Bob says to the crowd, "Don't worry the law is here and I brought some friends."

Jane, from the crowed, "But I just saw him murder the guy you were trying to arrest?  How can they be your friends?  They need to go to jail!"

Deputy Bob to the crowd, "Ma'am, I asked them to help me arrest the criminal.  I just haven't filed the paperwork with my boss yet to pardon them from their crimes."

Jane, ignoring deputy Bob, "Guards, there is a murderer here!  Arrest him!"


Yeah... tell me how the current code makes sense again?

I wouldn't even mind if the deputization (is that a word? If not, since it is English, it is now!) only happens when the town is under attack. So, when there is a call for alarm, a buff is added to everyone in the group with the trib member for x time since the last sight of the criminal.
