Seems like every time I kill one I see spammed in 1/3 chat "Ha ha Daunte and his friends took 5 minutes to kill me blah blah blah"
    Block them, kill them anyway. When I'm bored I usually am out there too because it's fun to kill twinks that think they're hot shit. I've gone to great lengths to harass twinks and as soon as they do shit like that it just steels my resolve. Especially if they're running around off map. I love fucking with them then. My biggest problem is twinks who force log.

    Zot only killed me a couple of times, but he was a lot harder after he actually started to level with the full gold elite 30 set. It got bad when he started force logging. I started telling people in my legion to just do the same to him.

    Duoed a 50 glad with another 30 ranger twink today. Needless to say, the guy sucked hard and it took about 5 minutes and a MAU form every kill, but we got him 3 times in a row for 600ap everytime. He actually had to call 3 of his friends to kill us, which I find hilarious. Primetime it's frickin impossible to go and pk people without getting spanked every 5 minutes, we had 2 full groups on our asses after a triple kill today, and they just stayed in the area forever so I logged and went to do other shit.

    That is the most annoying shit in the world, I really wish there was something that could be done about it. Finally catching one of these shitheads on Siel running around with their +25% PvP Damage buff, you still beat them, and they force log out, what the hell man. I caught one of these guys on my Level 28 Sorc, covered them with 2 dots and rooted him so he couldn't pot out, and he force logs out.

    They just need to add some sort of refractory period like every other game out there. You log off/get booted off/force log then you're vulnerable for a period of time until you actually log off. I remember people saying that Zot said it wasn't against the ToS, but I can't imagine that avoiding a designed game mechanic makes NCSoft happy.

When I finish using my Flash set on my Chanter I'll probably put it on my Ranger and twink her for screwing around.
    This isnt true. All of ranger's snares / sleep arrow / traps are all based on magic acc. And at 30-40 you don't have the magic acc to handle ppl a few lvs above you. So your just gonna get raped. The nice thing about sin twinks is that a 35'ish twink can easily kill ppl 43+ if they are caught by surprise. A ranger doesn't have the burst to do anything close to that at the lv

    I'd be more content if logging was impossible if you were in combat or you're under some kind of detrimental status. Sure, you could forfeit control with a force log, but your inanimate self would just stay still until the people give up, kill you, or whatever enfeeble wears.

    On chanter I actually seem to have the opposite problem between twink rangers and assassins. I have no problem with assassins of all levels, but a well geared twink ranger can give me trouble.

    Before I quit I'd been working on my Cleric when a twink Ranger started picking on me. Granted, with full Daeva I could arguably be called a twink myself, Clerics aren't especially known for their ability to kill things around level 32. Anyway, we had some back-and-forth, but the biggest trouble I had was getting stunned by his normal shots. Cures I could usually get off unless his Stunning Shot was ready (Flash and Regen usually helped to keep "oh shit" moments at bay), and yeah, now and then he'd get the Silence off. If I was high enough to have Cleric's book DoT, just chipping him to death with it and Earth's Wrath could've been an eventual outcome in my favor since his HP was only around 3200. Getting Smite chains off was just impossible with the aforementioned stuns or even a Forced Evasion on their end.

    Yeah, that shit is retarded. Your char should stay in game for at least 15 sec or so and not be able to log out with any debuffs on. Like every other MMO ever. It's mostly just sad though, that some players take the game so seriously that they feel avoiding one death is more important than their dignity.

    Anyway for the actual ganking part, I'd say sin and ranger are equal. However, when the 50s come to hunt you down, sin can much more easily escape and hide.

    Is there a way to check what items share the same cool down? Or is it every item from the same group shares the same CD? i.e. all scrolls share the same, all potions, etc

    Here's a question about Twinking.

    Since I have 5 characters past 30 now and I'm obviously not going to play them all, could I use one of the characters that's sitting around, buy an Abyss Godstone (Yes I know, not the best but something better than nothing...) put my Daeva Weapon in the account warehouse so it can be picked up by them, put the godstone on it, and put it back in the account warehouse for my twink?

    Definitely works! Takes 117k to enchant a Daeva Weapon.
