Re: Explosion pots ruin uogamers

so why are people allowed to run a explosion pot macro.. this isnt uo. its getting rediculous, makes me not even wanna play because im too old school to even want to pvp like that. uogamers fucked itself by letting people throw explosion kegs.. this isnt pvp

Re: Explosion pots ruin uogamers

I used to play old Catskills and they use to have a timer allowing the amount of pots to be thrown....Doesnt really have much effect in my pvp besides factions... eh sit back and deal.... :(

There is no macro, pots have a variable 3 or 4 timer so you couldn't make a macro to do it.

well its whack and it ruins pvp.. i could only imagine all the angry young players that just get spammed with a explosion pot.. if there were no explosion pots pvp would be so much purer and left to the skill of the player

now its just like who has more pots
 
Re: Explosion pots ruin uogamers

i beg to differ i know of a macro that works with the variable timer. although 75% of the time it works. the others when the 3 pops up it forces you to throw manually. ive seen it but refuse to use it not worth it and doesnt seem to be beneficial unless your just a noob alchy.

There's nothing wrong with explosion pots, just go back to the old AOE rules so it affects everyone, even innocents. There will be a lot more people trying to jump explosion pots to kill the people throwing them, and it will make people use them less frequently. Right now there's absolutely no risk to using an explosion pot other than having it blow up in your hand, which isn't that much risk in my opinion.

honestly this is prob the best idea ive heard in awhile. it actually goes back to throwing having a consequence and actually requiring talent and intelligence instead of spamming for the win.

Pfft.. i always accidentally press exp pot potion button, I would get guardwhacked in town all the time..
 
Re: Explosion pots ruin uogamers

thats why there is an option to turn off your binds while talking or bank sitting or whenever you feel you may make a mistake. dont carry pots into town or have them pouched and bank them when you get in town. also solves the thieving problems with your regs and shit.

Re: Explosion pots ruin uogamers

Lol... I don't banksit unless I'm waiting for someone, so It would be a pain to turn it off every 30 seconds just cause ive stuff to drop in bank. :/ My exp pot is F10, so if I press Allnames, which is F11 im fucked up. Anyway, thats true that exp pots are a pain, but in the other hand, thats a good way to mess with thieves that keeps hiding.

I know of more than one way to make a razor macro for this that works 75% of the time... but by working I mean it works all the time. :)

A. This is like saying, good argument I have no way to defend my argument other than saying "well its wack..."

B. You can't spam explosion pots, besides the 3 4 timers there is a slight cool down.

C. You can g-heal when timed correctly through a pot, you can g heal pot, you can bandaid, you can off screen, you can run around a corner, you can heal wand, you can hide, you can invis, you can teleport...

D. Please define pure? Like back in an old rule set that this server does not feature. It takes allot of skill to throw pots correctly and time them otherwise you'd be using them also if it was so easy. Plus if you miss the throw or throw too late it will blow up on you and hurt you.

Re: Explosion pots ruin uogamers

There's a 2 second delay between throwing an explosion pot and starting another one at the most. That's only a 2 second delay if you get a 3 count instead of a 4 count. That's hardly a cooldown. However, I have no problem with the time between throws. I have a problem with it only affecting people you flag on.

Also, It's not our fault that you have your explosion pot macro next to your allnames macro. Learn to hit the right key or put it on a more complicated hotkey, like ctrl + something.

EDIT- Gcures don't ALWAYS cure DP.
