Trickster Goblin Day 2 Discussion

[J11]

I think you missed the point again Shiki .

@Shiki

You had 3 people, you could have easily spread out and cover a good part of the zone but you decided to stay all together…

You are right… the more people you have the higher advantage you have of finding the goblin. That is exactly what I said:

@J11

If you have a larger team who can split in to multiple groups safely, you have a big advantage as you are more likely to randomly find the goblin

So thanks for paraphrasing me on that.

Regarding ‘complaining’… I believe there is no ‘complaining’. I am just pointing out flaws in the system.

@Shiki

then complain about the goblin spawning far from you, that’s already a strategy you could have changed to get better odds.

Namely this flaw:

@J11

you are less likely to get killed with the token as nobody knows who the real carrier is.

A good show and an example of this flaw is when I 1v1’d with you and because we did not know you had the token… we did not pursue… which to just requote myself again from the post above (which i guess you never read):

@J11

A very nice account of ‘those who know they have the token’ and ‘those who know nothing’. A very clear show of the imbalance so thanks for posting . I think our strategy there would have been significantly different if we knew that you were the one with the token.

[NotScott]

It is clear you need to know where the person with the goblin tokens is… we searched 20 + mins and made 100% sure no-one can run to highsteppe unnoticed. really hope it will change soon.

[J11]

People seen: 3 (0 from any other team)

Experience:

• 3 of us split up around the zone…
• Trickster goblin was killed far away from me, never found the goblin.
• We blocked all 2 entrances in the pvp zone but didn’t see the carrier.
• We patrolled entrances in highsteppe.
• Wasted 20 minutes doing pretty much nothing.

Delightfulness Rating: 1 out of 5

We assume that the token holder hid somewhere and logged out.

I don’t agree, that will kill it for solo players. My tactic was to hide for 2h, and then walk home with it. You need to be able to hide if solo

Well that is no fun and that just kills the PvP aspect of it, especially if someone hides in the wall. Having a beam on the person or at least have that person glow would encourage more PvP and would be a welcomed change.

[Burnator]

I still don’t agree, hide and seek is a big part of PvP for solo players.

Sure you shouldn’t hide in walls but I do know a fix for that. (Add a out of bounds death timer)

I did not hide in a wall

[Semz]

Nope, this is where the beacon for standing in one place for too long should come in. If it gets implemented.

[Unrivalled_Super_Hot]

Today I had no problems attending the goblin besides being a bit retarded and not switching on PvP, man that is embarassing, apologies to the gentleman/woman for my accusations at cheating.

[Semz]

Yea that part was pretty funny, 2v7, not so much…

[NotScott]

@Burnator

Na that is not going to happen soon.

Anyway still really disagree solo players should not hide. The area is too big. It is a pvp thing not a hide and seek thing. If that is the only way to give solo players a chance then that is shit.

The advantage of the token carriers is insane btw if they know what they doing. You have the whole world to choose to walk in, walls to walk in, no splitting up needed, a 10 min timer to disappear, no visible indication that you are the carrier, having the attacker think anyone can be the carrier and attack and waste time to the wrong person. There is no advantage to the attacker except for not being the carrier of something valuable.

[Auslander]

I haven’t done this event and probably won’t for a while but I had a thought about how to indicate someone has a token, polymorph the token holder into a goblin. It won’t tell other players where the token holder is on the map but other players would know on sight if someone had the token.

GJ Burnator … if I was into world pvp, at all, that would be my tactics, likely lol. Also, since you still had pvp on it is still dangerous, so why not.

[J11]

We just went for a good old trickster goblin event and I saw that someone picked up the token and we killed them and they didnt have it. I think they might have broken down the token but not sure… @Riley_D is the trickster token currently break down-able?

Or maybe we just missed a cheeky little change over of the token to someone else.

[Shiki]

The tokens are in LC bank… nobody broke them.

[NotScott]

So you guys finally found the first real Trickster goblin? xD

[Auslander]

I happened to be in the zone when the goblin popped. I had pvp off. I found the goblin and started sending up fireworks to draw ppl in, I wanted to see a big fight. Someone showed up and was instantly killed (less than a second)by an invised player. Then the goblin was killed and I saw the chest but got nothing when I opened it(again pvp off).

My thoughts are that non pvp players should not be able to see the goblin or the loot to avoid non pvp scouts.

And there should be a way to counter invisible pots, if there is not one already. Has anyone tried the Ithecac pot for this?

[Semz]

Fun 2v1 today! Nice try using the paladin stuck in combat BS, you guys can’t catch me and my two shiny tokens! gg.

Think that does need to get fixed tho… the paladin stuck in combat is still brutal @Riley_D

[Burnator]

Musky getting everyone stuck in combat from a distance is also nasty… the hole stuck in combat needs a fix, where hitting it frees your opponent but not yourself.
