A Player Event suggestion: Who said Range sux?

Post by vinnyq »

Ok, Range really do sux atm. While we wait for the Devs to tweak it, if they ever do (*hint*hint*wink*winkk*nudge*nudge*) I've got an idea for all of us tards that focused all our skills in crafting range and ammo to do something USERFUL with our talents.

Let's start stock piling guns and ammos. Once there are enough guns and ammos to go around (say about enough to equip an army of 500?), we advertise and hand out the guns and ammos free to any who wants to participate, and then, we move as a whole group through the land and shoot stuff! Hahahahahhaha!

I am thinking if we have 500 players focus all their guns on 1 Moderate to Hard Kipee, we can take it down in one second flat.

We can start with easy prey and move on to see how high a lvl mob we can get to.

One of the problem I see is a common meeting place to get started. Maybe we should wait until more people have access to other lands to meet up.

Coordination would be another, but we can work something out.

We should also bring along a healer and a few high melee to "back us up" just in case things doesn't work out ;)

So what do y'all think?

I like your idea Vinny, but I'm a but dubious as to how much XP 500 people will get from a hard Kipee :-) You'd have to be fairly low-level I think!

Also, only a subset of your army would get XP - each player would need to land a shot to get any XP from a mob. I can't imagine 500 people huddled around a Kipee receiving fairly-divided points :-)

Still, I like your idea :-D

500 people, that will give you like 0.004 xp a person! :D

Y'all are missing the point! The point is not to be able to take down mob and get xp, the point is ... well ... to shoot things!

Yeh, pretty pointless.

I am also thinking of getting together a line dancing competition, winner gets free loots or mats.

Heheee, nice idea, but we germans were faster:

From time to time we gather about 20 people, give them launchers and ammo and get on shooting anything that moves not being an NPC or player.

No joke, its great!

Do I really look like a guy with a plan? You know what I am? I'm a Gingo chasing Mektoub. I wouldn't know what to do with one if I caught it. You know, I just ... do things. The Kami has plans, the Kara have plans, God's got plans. You know, they're schemers. Schemers trying to control their little worlds. I'm not a schemer. I try to show the schemers how, pathetic, their attempts to control things really are.
So.....Why so serious?
