I really start to doubt the mind of some ppl that play on a PvE server.. OK, whole story:
I try to be friendly in cube. I help if I can, heal ppl when they fight mobs, set up card digging to 5 and so on, BUT there are 2 exeptions. Room 14 and 34. It might be from my time on a PvP Server, but when I enter these rooms I always prepare myself to fight and once I see a person inside there I strike. No matter if the person strikes first. It's simply the purpose of that room - kill someone.
And as a matter of facts I will definitly get a msg within the next minute. It's usually sth. like "why did you ***(put some bad word here)*** killed me?".
I usually try to explain the situation, that it is PK room and in order to survive I kill everyone I meet in there unless it's a friend of mine so I can be sure to survive.

So why don't ppl get the idea of a PK room? Sure it's anoying to die in there. But starting a war and getting other ppl involved to hunt someone down, just because he was faster than you? Really my plea to all the ppl starting to do cube: Look up what the room will bring and be prepared to be killed in PK rooms, which are 14 and 34. And if you get killed keep in mind not all pl kill in there because they love to PK and have a chance in there. It's simply the purpose of that rooms..

Or what do you think? Should someone go in there and wait till he get killed, simply because the one in there wants to safe his cards and is happy you gave him time to strike first?

To all that feal offended - since I choose not to die without a fight. I will go on attacking in that room, simply because that's what this room is ment to be. I can understand that ppl get pissed getting killed in another room, like 49 or 50. But that's already sth. different.

    Its the nature of the cube.
    Help in some rooms, kill in others. People don;t like it, too bad. The cube was clearly designed this way. Otherwise, why have 'bored' rooms to make you stand while pk enabled as well?
    Its a voluntary instance, getting pk'd is a known risk.

    Room 14 isn't a big deal, but Room 34 can be a real pain in the rear, depending on how long it took you to reach it. Personally I just pay my cards and get out of there as fast as I can.

    I don't mind getting killed in there. Since usually when I get either rooms no one ever comes in. b:cry I'd rather be killed in a fight than sit 20mins waiting.

    Yeah I've had the same thing happen to me. I've even been threatened to be reported for killing someone in room 14 once. b:laugh

    Some people just don't understand the objectives of the rooms of the cube and get irritated when they get killed. Simple as that.

    Ive done CoF hundreds of times, on multiple characters, and i can honestly say, ive killed one person in room 14. 14/34 are MADE for PK. you MUST pk someone to advance, unless you carry do-alls (i always have over 100) .other pk enabled rooms though, do **** me off. Like making it all the way to the other side of Dragon Gate DX, zigging and zagging, dodging the damn bugs, only to be shivved by a high lvl stealthed sin on the other side. or in room 45 having the Fate Spirit down to 50k hp only to have someone come up behind you, kill you, then take your hard work. THAT is annoying. as for 14/34. Either carry do-alls, tele back to 1 and restart, or stay out of Cube.

    I don't like being forced into PK mode in some rooms of the cube, but is part of it, and it was clearly designed to be that way.

    If you don't like that then don't do it. b:bye

    I truly hope the ppl arguing or threatening ppl just because they are killed read this!!!

    I would add a "be prepared to kill someone" to your list, since that's the other side of the equasion. Sure 99% of the time there wont be someone in, but if there is someone I wont hasitate to attack and ask "will you kill me?", since I want to survive :)

    Gotta love the cube. I finished it on my venom because I was trying to die. Even asked someone to kill me in the pk room. The archer killed himself, which was sweet, but not needed...I was literally in no armor at the time, trying to die with town portal on CD.
    b:cute The world may be small, but it is far from known.

    Why the rage? It's a draining emotion.

    Me: DaValentine (veno), Jaceraie (mystic), etc etc etc b:chuckle

    I only have problems with people killing without purpose. In room 14/34, there is a purpose. Namely, you get out of the room. So on the occasion that I die in those rooms and the person talks to me, I'll say "eh it's np, that room turns everyone into an a-hole." Which it can. :-/

    It's in the other rooms that I find pathetic. There is no reason to kill someone in Room 11/32. None.

    I must say I've only ever been in rooms 14/34 3 or 4 times and only once not had do-alls to skipp through and that one time I did kill someone, but usually I just skip ahead.

    As for the other pk enabled rooms sometimes I kill people there, but mostly I try and get through the cube as fast as I can so I don't bother. However I have more than once killed someone in one of the Bored rooms that were in a catshop. Why they were a catshop I can't say, my only guess is they thought they couldn't be killed while in catshop, so I'm glad I helped them out with that misconception b:chuckle

    I fully agree with you. I never PK in cube, but in these room I'm forced to pk, or be killed.

    Nobody has mentioned room 58.... it is also a PK room and much more annoying than the other ones. It has a price of 10 Do-All's to pass through or else be prepared to sit there for a very very very very long time waiting for someone to kill.

    Fuzzy has found himself stuck in 58 once or twice without enough Do-All's and it just aint no fun.

    I figure out that rooms 50-60 is absolutely not worth to do because of HUGE pay fee in each room. The cog can easily cost 2M. These stupid fees killed fun of getting cogs.

    I kill in 14/34, it's simply how the rooms are set up. If you QQ, well, blame the room :p

    I don't kill in any of the other rooms, unless you give me reason to. Like hit me first or be a first class moron who killed me for no reason before. KS me, ruin my bh, steal drops, whatever, be sure to not meet me in cube as long as I remember your name. Cause I WILL kill you. lol

    I absolutely love Cube, even more so because you have chances to get a lvl99 skill almost free (Demon Parasitic Nova 2nd try <3).

    However, there are days when Cube is annoying for me as well and those days I just give up. No reason to get angry over it. It's a form of game anyway.
    Even the times when somebody kills me in those rooms, I don't complain. I enter Cube at my own risk and being aware of the consequences. If I'm in a bad mood, I don't do it. End of story lol.
