What About Role-playing

[ssgtortho]

I am working on a fire warrior. Last night I was attacked several times by various players in my pk range. I did win all of the fights, but what about roleplaying? Aren't all killings suppost to be role played?

Unfortunately, they aren't or your not aware of their reasoning. Many will attack you as a Fire Giant Warrior because your a Fire Giant, a known evil. Others might attack you out of their own greed. Best to just be on your guard.

They are supposed to be roleplayed, yes. Speech however is not the highest thing on people's priority lists. Chances are often if you can catch a guy training or AFK, you can kill him right then, and have the fight won. When the victim has escaped, and managed to find a fairly safe spot, that is when the talking will break out.

Being that you picked a fire giant warrior, an evil race, you're still likely to be attacked by aggressive evils anyway, and also do-gooding lightwalkers (paladins, knight hopefuls, etc). Most fire giants in AR's past have turned out to be powerhungry and very aggressive so cutting them down before they reach their prime has become a bit of a no-brainer for the non-fire giant populace. The good news is that fire giants reach their prime very quickly, so you'll be finding yourself battering the snot out of all sorts of people, there is nobody going to be twice your size, so to speak. Make sure you know where purple and clear potions are though, and command an impressive supply of them both.

Yeah whenever someone tries to pk me, I run one way then the other and then they're off guard and they don't notice me running to somewhere easy to find... No one tries to pk me anymore... Well for the most part anyway so anyway I usually find somewhere to stay like near a mob that attacks attackers cityguards or the captain in Solace and make people guess where I am, then I wait for them to attack and then they're dead... I haven't done that for a while because I currently only have two chars and both are easy to take care of, I either cast blindness then o all rescue ****** or I dirt them and disarm them game over.
