Ok, so I know we have all at least been killed by a city guard once or twice, but its rediculous. WHAT are they even there for. They kill red named characters even if they are inside of the safe zone. D:<
this is not fair to pker's, especially those who use the boutique to buy gaurdian scrolls. I dont know if you can drop if a guard kills and personally I don't really care to find out. This is very annoying.. and the hostility of the guards towards pker's should be removed from the game indefinantly.

With love

    If you notice, the thing that causes your name to go red is infamy. This means, you are essentially an outlaw. Until the infamy wears out, guards see you as a lawbreaker (a murderer, if you will). This means, as law enforcers, it's their job to take down the outlaws. A simple way to avoid this is to just fly over the gates until you get out of their aggro range (similar to what one would do to avoid the towers in TW).

    Guards treat red names the same way they treat mobs and their main "job" is to prevent mobs from entering safe zones to wreak havoc.

    Just fly over the guards if you're a red name to save yourself headache. That or kill them if you have the gear for it.

    Well, it'd be truly fun if guards could also one-hit kill PKers who punch them repeatedly to gain chi.

    What? It's not the main topic? All right, see ya! b:avoid

    Well, it's more like players with red-colored names are characterized with infamy and chaos. Guards are supposed to maintain order, so you can see the rest.
    And what? You can kill guards? Interesting. I have yet to witness that.
    Maintenance time. Please choose a line:
    - When is it over? OMG I need my fix!! *super spazzing*
    - Fix the damn bugs, dammit! I'm so angry! I'll quit!!
    - New codes out there? I like free stuff~ *wink*
    - When will we get new content? QQ
    - Will we get sales? I got a ton of gold to spend.
    - I'm bored, I'll create a useless thread to annoy Opkorock.
    - *Incessant poking on Sweetiebot* Fun~

    Usually a person has to really prepare and get a bunch of help to kill a guard. They're worse than full Rank 9 +12 psychics.

    Personally, I think the guards should do less damage (Still a lot) and not 1-shot any infamous person that walks threw. of course the lower levels who are brave enough to go into Infamous mode are 1-shotters for the guards, but i really don't think that the guards should be just 1-shotting every person who walks up that isnt +12 geared (Because not everyone can afford that) and it really is annoying to forget you are a pink-red name and get killed because you forgot. I believe it to be unfair, Even though a pink-red name IS a fugative.. they should be strong enough to be able to survive a guards attack. b:chuckle
