Everything must go! Need el homos help!

It's El Horno for those of us not in grade school.

@mikek85 please think thuroughly when saying tracking needs to be nerfed. Tracking is 100 points set aside that a player can use in scouting.

I will counter with: Sacrafice self res. A player needs no extra skill points in order to self res up to 3 times in a row at full health + all of your items! As I am sure you know, self rezzing with your pets next to you vs enemies is a HUGE advantage... especially since this requires no extra skills points to do it.

Yup. I paid the price of admission on that lesson.

Luckily it wasnt very much. 1 basic gearbag and 80% of the loot from a lvl 4 tmap.

I think what makes tracking op is when you can track outside the confines of the dungeon you are currently in(ie. Tracking thru walls to other hot spots so that you can cover more area with less traveling) that is the only thing I see wrong with it. How can I track a player in hythloth if I'm standing in shame...this is just an example BTW.

You res with 10 hp and no mana, just an fyi

Wait what?

What is this self res that people are discussing here I'm not familiar with that mechanic.

Specifically in this case, the virtue of Sacrifice.

Anyway, unproductive derailed thread is unproductive and derailed.

Tracking does need to be corrected to disallow tracking through dungeon/area boundaries because they are close on the actual map layout (check UOAM).
If the target(s) are not in the actual dungeon and level you're on, there should be no hits.

ok. I am confused. Is Timelord leaving our world, or just having trouble with text thingy?

.

Yes, I don't think tracking should be able to track through walls to other dungeons/parts of the world. Makes no sense realistically or lore wise.

At least this should be changed.

.

How often is sacrifice used versus how often a tracker uses tracking. Tracking needs a fix. Reduce to half the distance and eliminate seeing through dead space on the map to other places.

I don't know if its even possible code wise to fix this though.

Sorry Blaise can you clarify? So the dungeons are actually not close to each other, so tracking does not work. What do you mean the level you're on?

I thought, he was complaining about the effectivity of tracking in general, ie. also about the non-bugged tracking within the same dungeon or in the outside world. And it's definitely not overpowered, imho.

Sometimes when I am in irc the R and the N seem to blur together to my eyes and at first glance it looks like someone is trolling him I probably need glasses lol
