I've seen Kryptos abused by griefers SOOOOOOOO many times. I will admit I'll be sad that I can't summon him in my hideout so I can easily keep him from disappearing (it always seems like there is somebody nearby when I try summoning him outdoors). But really, this change needed to happen years ago.
This device was the troll of all troll and griefer item to use on all fronts of the game. PvE, see used to push players away to attempt to prevent someone to receive their reward, or push players away from the entrance to a building. PvP, seen spam in middle of duels before, not sure what effect that would do but annoy the duelers. RPers get the blunt force of it all when in Caprice some actually have pushed players from one end of the club to the other as they are RPing.
Also to comment to summon him, try on the roof of Dr. Ka's Brimstone when you get the quest. I do think recently they snuck in a description fix that tells you to go there to summon him, not 100% sure but I have a gut feeling like I saw that somewhere the last time I was running VBA it told me to try the roof.
Wow, didn't think players actually did those. Seriously thought Kryptos was only good for killing spambots. Well, hopefully the spambots won't overpopulate that they occupy a zone. Or maybe the devs can do something to stop them.

Aggressive Stance is 20% of off -> def max. Without wardicator looping, 45 offense becomes 9 defense. With wardicator looping, that 9 defense -> 9 more offense -> 1.8 more defense -> 1.8 more offense -> 0.36 more defense -> ... 11.2 defense. Or ~10 ballparking. It's nowhere close to 18.
Fair enough, then.
It is definitely not worth a 2-point advantage. It would be better if it granted +Defense and and Knock Resistance per stack.
Added Tinfoil Hats as the April gold subscriber reward costume piece.

I've never tried to summon Kryptos anywhere but my hideout and in the Apocalypse. Doesn't he just despawn if there are other players about? How does that let you grief someone?

Whoever you are, be that person one hundred percent. Don't compromise on your identity.
that's better suited to a buff named Cautious, not Reckless

Maybe "Stalwart"?

Thanks for the tip on summoning Kryptos from Dr. Ka's roof. I'll try that next time I'm running VA.
