Does anyone else thinks this game supports running?

This topic is quite funny to me as non PVP player because like- why don’t you simply find someone that desires to pvp with you?
Yes, people very much outplaying you by running away from you can be annoying- but again, if you expect someone to play fair after jumping them while they were just vibing, that is a you problem.

that’s what pvpers do actually

99% of people who rk and gank are just closeted pvers who can’t do shit against someone who actually pvps so they resort to ganking newbies

case in point i almost never lose whenever some idiot jumps me in world pvp but i’m not anything special compared to most pvpers who dwell in elysium

that’s actually so funny

“mom dad… I… don’t like pvp…”

One. Why are you hunting when renown is exploited
Two. Running is getting nerfed
Three. You could’ve used an agility pot ngl

Running is the primal instinct of men when they sense inevitable death coming after them and is the best choice in many cases if it wasnt for running our ancestors would give their life between the jaws of a sabre tooth tiger.

I run , you run , we all run
Running is sacred

you expect someone to play fair after jumping them

this is true asf
if its not organized pvp then you cant expect someone to not just use absolutely everything they have to win
if someone gets jumped, their strategy to win being running around and throwing insanity potions is just as valid as treating the fight like an organized 1v1. its the fault of the initial attacker/hunter for thinking otherwise

“mue he he im jumping this kid”
“WHY DOES HE HAVE CHARRED 5 GEL?? CHEATER”

only for specific classes like mages, paladins, gun warriors, gun knights and other ranged builds

I use 540 agility and agil 5 pot so yeah

You can get more with the Dromeas set now

Honestly glad that running is still possible. Yes, it’s a pain when you fight someone and they start running when low, but holy shit it is necessary.

The Story

I was carrying my friend through the halloween event (they have to complete it before tomorrow) when some random just decided to attack me and my ship for infamy, presumably (or just because he wants to, I’m not in their head).
Without being able to run, I’d have been forced to fight them on a file that I’m not used to fight with, making me lose galleons, clan infamy, and making my day worse (he had blocked off my ship and started attacking it).

In the end, me&my friend had to log off (despite my friend having the treasure charts that they needed to complete) because of this random asshole that just decided to have his fun, without a single thought of what that would do to others.

Sure, you can blame me being in a clan for that (or not, considering that killing only gives 15 infamy now), but I joined it solely to help another friend out. Why would kindness be punished?
The worst part is that this all took place in a non-clan server.

remove agility and buff base move speed so that running requires strategy as all movement is the same and you cant just run off in one direction and expect to shake the other guy off

maybe boost level scaling to 0.2% per level instead of 0.1% per level, thats 28% extra base agility as opposed to the current 14%

Agreed! Running should require some strategy. I can run without agility — in fact, I did so yesterday, against two people who were probably on a Discord call together — so it’s definitely possible. There should DEFINITELY be an option for people who don’t want to PVP, but it’s such a core feature of the game (despite how much I personally hate it) that a complete avoidance option should still have some element of effort to it, even if it’s not much.

Also, base movement speed NEEDS a buff. It takes unreasonably long to cross an island without an agility build, and that’s even without the big future islands like Jotunheim.

This isn’t deepwoken, PvP does NOTHING other than lift some useless numbers and act as a comically inefficient galleon farm

There’s entire PvP arenas. Whether or not you like it or think it’s worthwhile doesn’t change the fact that a lot of the game is built around it

clans i understand for pvp cause that’s opt-in

renown however? HELL naw
return to aa reputation where it goes from 8000 to -8000 and if its negative you can get a bounty which lets people hunt you for money
that way it’ll be opt in too, you do crimes you get hunted

Yes, but it’s not a core feature, nothings built on it. Theoretically you could remove it entirely and nothing else would suffer

how.

tell me exactly what stops working if PvP is removed.
if the game is built around PvP then it should fall apart the second its gone, right?
