PK farming is allowed in game?.
Well...i have found some very not fair PK farming in game. I'm not sure it's allowed for fair PK, so i ask you all here.
Like we see, one person lvl30 venomancer, die all the time, and other just kill her. Then Cleric revive she and again and again...b:cry so call PK farming. She spoke "This is mine other char who i don't play and don't need".b:shutup

    You do realize that, the server in the pictures is a PvE one, thus the veno in question was voluntarily entered into PK mode.

    The question is: IT IS ALLOWED or NOT?. This venomancer is in PK mode(after lvl30 you can turn it on), and other peoples "train PK"/Farm PK kills on she. She is an "Alt" from 1 of the PK's(who PK she)b:shutup(I hope it's not so complicated b:chuckle).

    Who gives a **** as to whether or not it is allowed.

    So what if someone wants to run their PK's number up so on paper they look good and are all nice and red in game. Only someone with a bad builds and who are wussies would do this.

    Red tagged payers are the first I go after.

    It's allowed.

    On a PvE server, it'd be the person's choice to turn PK mode on or not. If it wasn't an alt being farmed to pad red hours, there would also be the option of hitting town instead of constantly ressing.


    And considering this is something that's been done for years now, it's kinda old news that nobody cares about.

    PS: you may wanna edit names in that screenshot. Naming and shaming or w/e cause that's what some mod will eventually come in and call it even if, in this case, there's no shaming being done.

    Why wouldn't it be allowed? PK rankings don't really have any effect on gameplay at least as far as I know. If they want to do something as pointless, I say we let them :P

    What is happening here is someone has 3 characters (triple logged, I might add), and is using a Veno, Cleric, and another...

    they're oneshotting a Veno, rezzing the veno, then repeating to up their PK count.

    This has NOTHING to do with 'oh blah blah they CHOSE to go into PK mode', geebus.
    101 Sage Sin*/Archer
    100 Demon BM*/Barb
    96 Demon Cleric/Sage Seeker
    95 Demon Wiz/
    94 Sage Veno
    85 Psy/80 Mystic
    And a handful of other alts, all 79 and under.

    Besides, last I recall, they had changed the kill count system so doing that doesn't add extra to your count (and a large amount of people had their kill counts changed because of it), so it's purely for the red hours unless the person in question happened to be woefully misinformed.

    If nothing else, they're breaking the rules by having more than two accounts logged in, since the new multiclienting rules state only two accounts per person can be online at once.

    IF it bothers you so much, reporting them for logging in three characters at once. Farming in that manner (using three characters) is against the ToS. Farming alts in general isn't but the specific way they are doing it is against the rules.

    i don't think PK farming is possible. I remember some people did that when dreamweaver server opened and gms somehow nerfed it. i killed one guy 12 times in like hour and got only one kill count in pk rankings. Also after changing guilds pk count got reduced to many players. So im not sure how they count kills now, must be some time limit and something about not getting kills from killing guild member or something.

    I didn't hear anything illegal of PKing. Except PK harassment.
