Thread: When is a triple incap ok?

Not a flaming or exploit or griefing thing.


The setup:


The other night I fought a Jedi who decided to triple incap me just for the sake of it. Because he didn't like Bhs. This annoyed me because it wasn't his intent just to kill me, as he could have done on the first incap.


So my question is:


When is it ok to triple incap? (I'm not talking about a prolonged fight where you are only able to kill your mark by a triple.)

I dont think its ever ok if its intentional. However sometimes it is unavoidable. Last night i was attacked by a bh and incapped him, but before the db timer would finish he would stand up. This continued until he was tripled.


That said, as a bh ive had tons of jedi triple me before just to be jerks and its not cool.

I think its not ok when the only reason for doing it is to upset the other player. But, I could really care less about it because what harm does it really do? I could hardly call it griefing.


Just a little note: triple incapping is especially useful when your mark is in water. Don't go for the death blow. You probably won't get there in time. Just stand on the shorline and shoot. I think itis certainly acceptable under those circumstances.


The other thing is when people try to triple incapp, you may have a chance to get a heal in before the incap. I have had fights where the tripple incapper regreted not taking the DB.

I welcome the triple incap. Nothing better than getting back up, using a KD shot, and healing with a stim. Sometimes you can be back on your feet with full health and the fight is back on.....

The times i triple cap someone is due to the stupid db timer.

QFE, exactly, I have no idea why people whine about Triple incaps. More often then not, Once I see the timer count down,I nail my Stim D and Bacta heal and get back up with full health and ready to roll.

Some people on these boards cry over the smallest things.

Do you mean if he hunted you and was unsuccessful?


or


Do you mean if he DBd you and has gotten your mission again?



Because I can understand the first one upsetting you, even though we get to keep missions for three days, I think if you fail once that should be that.


However, if you do this because of reason number two then you must understand that he didn't know if was your mission he had accepted 99% of the time.






its number 1, i can understand it if its early morning or otherwise off peak times, but during peak hours.. well

I don't think anybody, at least myself, care that much about a triple incap. The only reason I asked was because once I told a few people that instead of DBing me, he tripled me, everyone I told were shocked and got all upset that he would do it. So to me it seemed like something you do out of disrespect to make the other person look weak and/or inferior to yourself. That's the only reason why I asked, to find out what the purpose and appropiate use of it was.

So if you had to tell others in game about your happening.. you obviously were annoyed as well..


to each their own, there are many annoyances in game but I much rather be triple incapped and given the chance to jump back up with full health when the heal is timed right then bedb'ed straight up.

I agree. The other day a Jedi tried to triple me and I was able to get up, get away and heal and regen. I'm just asking since many people seem to look down on it. So my question was, when is it ok?
