Many of us remember the days when mobs could be 'trapped'. Years ago the AI failed to make mobs run around trees, and they just got stuck behind those, and one could shoot the mobs, without getting hit. This was seriously 'not done', and people like myself and others avoided this as much as possible, since it was not allowed.
This was considered 'GAINING AN UNFAIR ADVANTAGE' and was AGAINST TOU.
There were many support cases about it, and people got their accounts locked , temporarily or permanently.
Today we have that same problem again....
I hunt a lot on Rextulum, at the oasis, shared loot. Sometimes people with low dps guns show up, and ask me if they can hunt alongside. For the benefit of the game, and for some fun, I happily agree with it. Sometimes it's really enjoyable.
However...
All too often people show up who do not ask, who are sneeky, and try to take advantage of hunters like myself. They realize ubers dps is much higher then theirs, and understand that if they hide behind big guys, with their puny guns they won't get hit, People like myself will take the damage, and this way they are able to 'hunt bigger mobs'
I consider this 'GAINING AN UNFAIR ADVANTAGE'.
The only difference is that you trap mobs behind a person, rather then behind a tree.
Yes it is shared, anyone can hunt anything. Sure, I like to team up, no problem whatsoever, especially with people with similar dps.
But when cowards purposely shoot the mob someone else is on, even in wave1 where the mobs are real easy, and there is plenty of mobs around for everyone, they purposely shoot the mob you are on, with the only goal of saving on their own decay, and putting it on YOUR repair bill... the least I can say is 'this is not done.'
