It also appears to me that harvesters are the most important and best treated characters in Ep 2, for it is only through their work that the event can be completed, and they are given a lot more honor points than fighters. A lvl 250 harvesters can stack up more honor points in a few hours of digging high lvl mats than days or even a whole week of fighting for a lvl 250 fighter.

(I spent every minute of my time in the pvp area in focus jewels and LA.)

All the more reason for me to target you and do everything possible to keep you from digging and crafting, eh?

Seems to me the term Ganked or Ganker is used far too often and is just becoming a generic term to replace killed or agro player , there was only two instances in the whole event where I myself felt Ganked though I died easily many times

Agree with Pet entirely the term "Ganker" is being overused by people who cant cope with death in an FvF zone, for sure there are one or two people out there with no judgement whatsover when it comes to killing people AFK or far lower than them, but the majority are just playing the episode to the best of their ability within the storyline and mechanics we have got.
Alot of points have been made about where EP2 has fallen short and alienated some entirely and there are signs these have been taken on board by TPTB but missusing insults just because one aspect of the game does not perfectly suit what you want to do and further whining is not constructive.

You kill me when i am in harvest gear fine, I pick myself up and get on with it, you hang around gloating and insulting and start using profanties, i will ticket you. The majority do not fall into the second category and do not deserve the label some are so keen to apply.

From rushin's perspective there is no place for 'peace' there, if i get to the centre and see kara and kami digging together i go dig somewhere else. I'd like to shout 'leave or die' at the karavan but it wouldn't be them that would do the dying lol

Ive also felt the bloodlust but am even weaker than you , diplomacy and the chance to show old friends who have taken the wrong path the true way are better options for me (for now atleast maybe one day i will get back to learning the art of combat and things will change -the war may be over by that time tho lol)

Except when we're arguing .
Any way, I think your touching on the same problem I was the other week (Albeit, from a different way).

The problem is (and I hope you agree), there isn't a challenge in killing diggers. Killing a team that's ready for battle - that's good fun (and people think I'm against pvp :S). However, the way this event was designed you do need to kill diggers.

Hopefully, you can see what I was trying to get at the other week in my thread "where's the challenge" now .

heh, that could be abuse But I suppose, no one will mind if it's at the company

Karavan attacking the Kami right after todays event while the Announcer was still there (right after a fight event without weapons, which means no defence), now that's ganking ;p

I am Karavan, and didnt attack the meeting, so by that definition your statement is a falsehood.

Would it be at all possible to stop referring to 'Karavan' and 'Kami' as blanket terms, and instead use the names of the guilty people, or maybe their guilds if personal names are a violation of the CoC ?

My policy is to never attack anyone carrying a pick, and I wont even fire first at people I know from before the war. The game being in the state its in, I do end up teamed with players without those scruples, which may explain why Im spending a lot less time playing now.
