Jumping

Baccalarium · 05-29-2007, 11:17 PM

Would it be a difficult thing to implement that jumping up and down on would increase your agro radius 75-100%? Make sure its a random amount to make it a bit more difficult to exploit. I mean stomp your foot on the ground, and theres no telling how many mobs you wake up. I think most groups could figure out they just wait for the mobs to finish off the jumper and then rez em back up. And ask em why their armor is at 10%. Oh well, it probably would mess up some areas where jumping/climbing just out of proximity range to the mobs was required, but I can imagine it would be fun to watch some days. So who's of the mind there's more people that would get enjoyment out of jumpers being pummelled, and whos of the mind that the jumpers deserve their fun too? Just kidding, I haven't turned evil yet, but there is a hint of evil back there somewhere. SMILEY

I agree 100%! SMILEY

That's why this comic is my favorite thing EVER.

Even more fun is "tagging" a Fae or Arasai with a snowball just as they jump off a tall cliff. SMILEY

If your in a group with a jumper, then I suggest more killing.

I myself tend to jump around, I usually do it in the back of the raid, because I am bored as hell. I see if I can jump from one table to another, or jump across the hall to the other wall.

Example, in a HOS raid, pick up raid. And there was 10-15 minutes between pulls. Took us 3.5 hours just to get to Pain. Wasn't any wipes, so no need to rebuff and all that. Seriously, 10-15 minutes between pulls, waited 22 minutes before we even pulled Pain. Sorry but I gotta do something.

I never seen anyone jump around during a fight, so if you see a jumper, pull something.
