If you go down into the webweaver trail (any instance) with a group of 4 people and grind in the wookie village just like the jedi. Thats what happened tonight to me and a few friends. We went to grind and those Jedi had a fit. They couldnt out damage us and started sending hate tells and spitting and crusing at us.


They even went so far as to say we were griefing them because we "took" their gringing spot away and filled a harrasssment ticket againest me and my friends.


Now im not the brighest BH in the galaxy but I dont think there are any rules againest me going to the feral wookie village and grinding and if I happen to bring friends and we start to out damage the jedi group it seems like that is their fault not mine. But I have never seen a group of Jedi so mad as they were tonight and in time they just left in frustration.


So my breathern, lets go do some power grinding on the webweaver trails.Get a good group of 4 or 5 of your best buddiesand go into any instance and powergrind combat xp and let these Jedi know that they dont own the trails - that anyone can grind there.

actually kill stealing is considered harrasment.


If you attack what they are attacking, for the solepurpose of denieing themXPthen yes..... it is a bannable offense

no its not griefing. they don't have exclusive rights to grind there, its for everyone. next time they say its "thier" spot ask to see an official SOE deed of title for ownership of the ryatt trail and then tell them to "Cry some more jedi noob" lol

actually we are not attacking their wooks - but since the wooks come in waves , big waves ... they all started migrating over to us.


You know how it is 3 appear you shoot one and three come running , another group spawns behind us andrushs in and so forth and so on.

true they do not have rights to the spot.... However if you attack what they are attacking knowing you will do more damage (as the original poster stated) then you are kill stealing and it is considered a grief.



ask a CSR if kill stealing is allowed.

au contraire



Kill Stealing, while it is a despicable act in any game, is quite legal in SWG.


Over and over and over and over, the devs and the CSRs have said "NO ONE OWNS A SPAWN"


The Krayt you found, if somoene outdamages you, tough cookies


Lord Nayax, borgle bat cave, akuanan cave, Fort Tusken any otherspot that I have never heard of for good XP or loot, not yours. You hold it buy doing the most damage, you get the XPor the loot by having the biggest group and doing the most damage.


So it has been, so it shall be.

I'd like to see a link to that info myself, Ive played just about every mmo on the market and I can't think of one that allows for blatant harrasment/ksing without Gm intervetion especialy Sony titles Eq,Eq2, both don't condone this so I find it hard to believe that SWG does. This goes beyond basic business sense, lets see piss of a customer, loose the customer less revenue thats a win, win situation considering the word of mouth in the mmo community. Heck Ive seen entire guilds of 200+ customers up and quit games and many other guilds follow suit when things continue down these same roads. I think its becoming more the standard that such simple things as this all mmo's in the future will be expected to have the status quo as the market becomes more saturated with game choices.

Okay, no offense, but I think they implemented the different zones for the Rryyatt Trail to try and prevent killstealing/spawn camping. Either you or the Jedi can go to a different instance.

They may have meant someone else can come and fight WHERE you're fighting not WHO/WHAT you're fighting.


And you're gonna get abuse and people irritating you everywhere you go if you do Kill Steal as that is generally

not a done thing...

Tell ya what Krendor,



Go to the Loot and Items forum and post about whether Kill-Stealing is legal in SWG and about ownership os spawns, ask for people to give you links in regard to it. You'll get a list as long as your arm.


Devs have stated over and over again the the way to beat a camper is to out damage them


CSRs have continually refused to take any action in loot or spawn wars.


Or hey, when somoene KS's you (and it will happen sometime) you can file a ticket and the CSR will tell you, in effect, Cry More N00b!

Kill Stealing is not "legal".

its like this group of three appear - i open up , well I happen to be faster then these Jedi and the wooks rush us. we fight that group and another group appears and its the same senerio - Just because I have speed and range to engage the wooks before theydo ... well its not my fault that they are slow

i agree with the kill stealing. thats messed up but if the wooks came after you instead thats not your problem. next time they say to leave tell them "not until we finish telling our BH friend where you are" see if they laugh then lol
