Maybe I am behind the power curve, but I noticed that the CH board has it listed that they are or have changed the fact that pets can be killed with the snipershot. Has this or is this really happening? It is in the list there on the developers responses. Why do they want to take one more skill away from the rifleman?



Devs clearly do not play their creations and are utter clueless as to the results of their nerfs. They seem to be in love with their ideas and ignore the results.

Why never? Some people are real ass holes with their pets, and they deserve to die. When someone whops me with their pets while staying out of ranged weapon combat, comes up and DB's me and gets upwards of 33 faction points because they are technically a non-combatant, that pisses me off. If I were able to, I would hunt them down and slay their pets.No sense in killing the owner, as I would get none of my faction back.

I agree with SocialConformer here. Why never? If you and I are just dueling that is different. If you are using your pet to kill me, I will kill your pet. I use pets and many of mine have been killed. If you enter PvP you can expect things to go on like this. Why get mad, afterall this is just a game, I am just a rifleman, and without burstrun, I just die..

if he killed apet he should be able to walk up to it and kill it, it sounds like he wants to stay a long ways away and kill a pet, if this is not true than why would he want the option. I agree with killin pets if they are in your grill maulin away, but to kill an opposing factions players pets from 60 m cuz u can is asnine and thats what his post sounded like to me.

Do you mean permadeath?


For about a week after one of the major patches, you could permadeath a CH's creatures with snipershot. The devs hustled to have this hotfixed though.


I mean, they had to. 30% of their player base are CHs and 85% are creature users. Of course, when riflemen were being lit up by heavy weapons, that wasn't something to hustle over.

Killing pets with sniper shot hasn't ever worked for me. The darn things just get right back up and charge at me.
