levels 36 and 32 , hunter 65 got killed halfway
But we made it

the start at DW



arrival at JH



So no reason to pop low levelers

Hi Hi Hi

Well gratz on making a 5* run, but saying that because 2 people made a 5* trade run all of a sudden theres no reason to 1* pop seems to not make that much sense since there are much more than 2 traders out on the roads and still the majority of traders do 1*. I'm not complaining that there isn't that many multistars to rob because a 2x knows if he did multi star its much more likely to get killed than if he did 1*.

yeah i agree there, but i know i take my alt and do solo 3*s every day/other day. and i see plenty of other people while doing it. as STINGER would say "most people jsut don't know hwo to thief." people sit at a ferry and expect their multi*s to come right ot them in no time at all....lol XD

I should have robbed you, go to thief town, and get only about 50k profit. Im in Oasis btw

There isnt many..see this is so rare you have to make a thread about it

your 5 star doesn't even make a 70 theif's one star

Now convince all the other noobs to trade multis too, plz

And the problem will be fixed.

Oh wait nvm, some people choose to be immune to the triangular conflict system.

Its yet again easy fix.. Low levels don't do multi trade runs because getting popped by a bored high level is just to great. Yes 90% of all thiefs don't want a fair fight. All they have to do is make it so that only players with-in 5 levels of you are able to attack the trader and vs. Yes this doesn't stop those who delevel themselfs but that rule also goes for the traders too.

More players would take multi star trade runs if they felt more safe. This would also give players a reason to stop grinding all day and take up a job for a bit. As it is right now its grind till the top and do safe runs or one star runs.

This would force players to pick on targets closer to there same level. Greater Risk = Greater Reward. This would also force players to work more as a teams thiefs vs trader vs hunters. Right now its bully on the playground. After you get rolled a few times you end up giving up. Its not worth it getting upset over a game. So you just grind and think one day I will do trade runs. (most burn out before that day happens)

Also this should go for Unique mobs.. Only players with in 20 levels of that mobs level can attack it. This would give everyone one chance to see a unique and a reason to break from grinding all the time.

Yet again this will never happen.

When me and some guild mates trade we always do 5*. 1* issent worth the profit tbh But then again. We are one of the strongest unions @ oasis atm. So we can always call for backup!

this is a nice point
if my 5 star is not enough for a lvl 70 thieve to be 1 star
then why tease the low lvl 1 star trades if it does not bring them anything

exept FEAR in the eyes of the low levelers hi hi

Good point...
Why should the low lvls start trading with more than 1*, when their stuff isn't worth a lvl 70 thief's 1 star ?

I think u just pwned all thieves with the excuse of "not enough multi-star trades"

or do what the high lvl thieves do now.. get a trade run with 2 or more fellow thieves. and take the road to trade.. see a low lvl *1 trade run and buddy close to him.. your npc thieves that spawn on the thieves high lvl trade, which btw has nothing in it except maybe a horseshoe, the npc thieves then attack your traders low lvl horse killing it and him for you. and u just ride over and pick up the goods and ride on.. if you get a buddy thief he can protect ya from a distance from those high lvl hunters..

sigh..
THIS IS WHY I AM A HUNTER!!



the system was built as a system of checks & balances, but on many a server its bully the low levels.. that makes the game not fun and hence alot of players grind. which can get gruesomely boring some days..

hence this is the main reason why im keeping a list of names of thieves who hit trade runs or one star trades... YOUR DAY IS COMING!! REPENT YOUR EVIL SINS<< AN MAY GOD HAVE MERCY ON YOUR SRO SOUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!






Oh yeah and those thieve that think there god.. go get help.. you been at the keyboard way to long.. and them sunken eyeballs. well.. lets just say mommy dont like them anymore..

Just the other day I made a 4* solo run with my 37 nuker because I was bored.

Fellow thieves, please look harder at East ferry Jangan.

yes thieves. follow and get pwnt.........................................................

There is a reason for that. Higher level always wins. Why try when its pointless (if you get spotted).

lolz
2 reason to rob sum1.
either u hate them, or they are gay

I heard that Thiefs are going to spawn Hunter NPC, and no more Thiefs NPC


So, 1 star is gonna be safer.

....But that means that there would be NO 1* popping whatso ever (unless my common knoledge is wrong and hunters can kill merchants if they want), and jm is in the gray when it comes to 1* poping. Im not looking for the Q&A of it, so do it yourself.....

Do 5* when u r high lvl, now the best choice is 1*....if u really wanna to 5* make sure u have hunters to protect u!!!

Even 5 stars isn't worth it...you don't see very many high level 5x 6x players trading either. When you do see some, they're just trading for fun to get away from the grinding. This is hardly any kind of triangular conflict...

Traders make squat...
Hunters get half of squat...
Thieves bully over squat

The real triangular conflict is:

Legit players vs bots vs GMs

Well, Reason for 1* popping is im guessing because
thiefs aint gonna be waiting in the middle of no-where
with there finger up their ass watching the 1*'ers
walkin past expecting nothing to happen... I thought this
game was meant to be a challenge? Not many people like
challenges all because of the word "PWNAGE". Traders hate
that word when it happends to them...
