Losing "honor" points if the kill was harvesting and with pick in hand at first strike.

in my eyes there is no problem killing someone that is diggin and should never be penilize for it and/or look down upon for doing so.

in LoU you have supernodes that were meant to be fought over by guilds, it is why the area is guild vs guild PvP. and if you are killed outside of LoU by another player while you are diggin then it is your own fault for having your PvP flag on.

there is no reason to have your PvP tag on unless you are ready to be attacked and killed.

Ok.. I ran through the company asking about the honor system. only few knew about it. This feature was linked to episode2, and, apparently was discussed highly controversial in the community. I will follow it up, but there is some discussion to be done.
On the healing bug, we are working on a fix, but it might still take some time. I keep you posted.

To give you an idea of how messed up this system is, I accidentally healed a tagged Kami and stayed and team. As soon as I cast a bomb heal on my Karavan teammates, however, I got kicked out. Huh?

If you could heal him, he wasn't PvP flagged in that moment.
You should be always able to heal every other homin, that isn't PvP flagged. Tagged or not, and no matter if you are tagged, flagged, or both.

Faction tagged is not the same as PvP flagged. So that part isn't a bug.

If you heal a faction tagged member that is attacked by an opposite faction tagged member, and you are are tagged yourself, you become involved in PvP and getPvP flagged yourself. As long as there is atleast one non PvP flagged member in the team, the team will break, and that is not a bug. That way it isn't not wise to invite non PvP flagged homin in a team that is already involved in PvP action.

If this situation occurs while every member of a given team is Faction tagged and PvP flagged, then it is a bug.
So did you try that?

.

As far as I know it was disabled, because it was exploitable.
Friends in opposite factions could kill each other and gain honor points for that.

...because for fighters, there were no point (no faction point reward) for protecting diggers from kitins

True, and that was bad.

...because for fighters, there were no point (no faction point reward) for protecting diggers from enemy faction

Wrong. When you killed a opposite faction fighter, you received honor points.

Thanks a ton Phelan, all I needed to know
You rawk

As for the rest of you, I would LOVE it if they found a way to remove the PR gank part of honor points.
If you are digging with your tag on its a completely different story imho.

i agree on the Digging with tag, if you get jumped, its your own to blame.

I can't see myself saying this, but... I fully agree.

If you are digging tagged, go on, that's your problem.

in my eyes there is no problem killing someone that is diggin and should never be penilize for it and/or look down upon for doing so.

But... if you give honor points for killings, even the foragers, the PR and nexus will be a gankerfest, people searching for foragers to kill and get honor points. No need of kitin patrols, then

The other thing, about exploit the system is true... friends can kill each other. But... you can make a temporal limit, maybe... don't give you honor points if you kill someone in an hour or so. In OP battle (If honor applies to that) that will become in a "searching new target", not sure if that's good...

[tr808]

Where is the honour in killing some1 more then 2 times in a hour? That should fix it

if the honor points are tied to faction how they were they only should be rewarded for FvF PvP, LoU and the nexus are GvG.
