Because our guild armorsmith just killed a full temp jedi BY HIMSELF! NOT kidding. I'll see if anyone got screenies since I can't take it. So far our a'smith has handed out a total of 6 "...has been defeated by an armorsmith" badge. In case any of you are wondering he is a master armorsmith/ master smugg.



The Story:

We met in theed so he could slice a weapon for me. We then decided that we would go overt and hunt rebs. I thought I went overt....he DID go overt. We go to Cnet. We load in. No rebs. One starts to load in. I can't target him. A'smith thinking I am overt too begins attacking the JEDI as soon as he loads in. He then defeats him SOLO and we head for the hills laughing our a$$es off! GREVER PWNS ALL ARMORSMITHS!

Two things I need to say here:


1) What happened to the rest of this discussion?? Did I just have a very odd dream that there were 5-6 replies to this thread yesterday? Oh, well, probably someone got really angry at someone else, and parts of the thread were deleted.. or.. ?

So.. your friend attacks a jedi WHILE HE IS LOADING? If this is what you are doing.. that's not cool.. that's not "combat".. that's called griefing actually, and should get your friend thrown the h*** out of this game. And he's done this 6 times, you say?


Wow.. I don't know what sort of response you expect to get for this, but really.. you might find a couple of 12-year olds on the bh-boards that would find this funny, but don't count on it..

Someone obviously took offense that I'm not using jedi skills to OMGWTFPWN people and instead make lots of money with them...

CL80 actually. 1 Master Jedi discipline = cl80. For some reason Jedi get to higher CL quicker (I believe because they invest skillpoints more quickly)

Umm before you make youself look ignorant he is a lvl 56 armorsmith. I could see if it was a group of full temp jedi ganking the one loading jedi, but lets get real, an armorsmith isn't exactly intimidating. besides you can't attack before the person is done loading anyways.

Still, with the span of time between whenthe character is loaded and when he is actually able to respond to the attack (especially in a city with all the objects/toons that needs to be loaded there), or even target the attacking character, I think it is a very, very uncool thing to do.

You are not able to attackl until he is FULLY loaded. I.E. can see screen, and can move around. In some instances they actually take a few steps trying to run away before you can hit them. It also automatically targets whoever hits you (at least my computer does when it happens to me). The fact still remains though he was an armorsmith. You are a failure at the game if one beats you. NO MATTER WHAT. End of story. Especially a full temp jedi.



oh also for the record he only load attacked the jedi. all the others were in duels or from him fidning overts in a city.

Just a little note here. I dont know how much PvP you do. Or how thigns are done on what ever server is local to you. But load kiling is par for the course on Bria at least. If your red. Doesn tmatter if your loading in or not. If there is enemy about they will almost allways swarm you and kill you the moment you turn attackable. ALSO you do NOT have to be 'fully loaded in' so to speak and able to see the screen before your attackable. I can certainly attest to this as I have been killed at least 12 times on loadin. Well before i coudl see the screen. And I'd find out I was allready dead from loaded in guildmates over our vent server before I could even see that for myself. Infact on some of the worst plannets for lag i'd be dead a good minute or more before I could see the screen.


It's perhaps not 'honourable' but hey. Partsmuggler right? Par for the course with smugglers. And you think that the cl80 jedi would have stopped for one moment to think if they should gank a level 56? Hell no. I've seen (for what ever bloody reason) CL5's and the like overt. And no one ever spares them either. General policy for most PvPers at least on Bria is if it's red it's dead. And that extends from both factions. Not that there arnt more honourable exceptions made be it by individuals or guilds. But it's the sort of thing one comes to expect of PvP on SWG in my experience. So i'm hardly ever supprised when it happens to me.
