I said High Inquisitor for this reason:

1) Warmaster - purpose? To be a great fighter. Schooling them is just saying that they're not. It just follows the "there's always going to be someone better than you at <fill-in-the-blank>" statement.

2) Executor and Forsaken... again, in each respective category there's not a purpose other than "rid the world of evil" or "dominate everything around you." If you pwn the Executor it's a slap in the face of the Knights, telling them that they're crappy at "upholding the Light," but it's not doing anything beyond that. Killing the Forsaken is telling the Legion that they screwed up and their leader is weaker than they thought. The only way that can be cool is if it sparks a coup and encourages another Legion to challenge and kill the Forsaken.

3) High Herald. Why was this even included in the poll choices? Granted it can be a relief to the criers of "fucking hoarding Heralds," and it might even be fairly comical, but I wouldn't consider it "cool." The Herald cabal is already considered to be the n00b cabal, and in the Guiding Principles it says they're not supposed to actively seek combat (which in turn encourages not-so-polished PK skills), so why other than boredom would you attempt this in the first place? Oh yeah, cuz it's funny...

Which brings me to the High Inquisitor. This is the only position that I feel really has an impact on the rest of Thera. With Justices being able to dish out flags and slaughter anybody on the who list regardless of rank for small potatoes (botched robbery/murder attempts, careless duellers, ignorant corpse looters, etc.), killing the "sheriff" is a way for the rest of the playerbase to begin thinking that they might be able to get away with a little more than they originally thought. "If so-and-so can kill the head Justice," they might think, "then maybe they're not so tough after all."

I'm sure everybody's going to have their own opinion on what they consider to be the "coolest" (which is, after all, what this poll is asking), but I think the head Justice getting whacked is the coolest, simply for the fact that I think it has the biggest chance to impact the rest of the playerbase.

Everyone knows evil guys are the coolest. That childish logic implies that killing the Forsaken is best. Rolling Eyes

High ranking Legion dudes are generally pretty decent. Killing them can be challenging.

Justice. Well. It is fun to kill them. But, that depends on who is High Inquisitor at the time.

Knights. bleh

Heralds. double bleh.

Warlords. If you can't kill there warmaster, er warmistress. Delete yourself now.

leaders aren't always the best pkers in a cabal, except for the legion cabal, in my opinion. this is my theory: legion is a performance oriented cabal. its strictly who is the best in the bunch, performance wise. if legions are always wrestling for the power spot and also are showing that they are capable of holding that spot, the leader should always be the most fearsome caballed player in the game. this hasn't happened enough recently though.

I'd have to say Justice, because even if they're not the best at pk, try beat the elite special guard + ensnare with all the attacking mobs on you...
