Dr.Krank and Zibell

[Phinger]

OK...now i remember this character from ages ago when I had just hit 100 and was bumming around in CAV...we killed him before aksing him any questions.

Anyway was bored today and flew out there and thought lets see what he may have.

Didnt attempt to kill him chatted to him and bam mentions this character called Zibell.

Now he mentioned he was in the valley and a wanderer, hunter salesman. Woot I thought maybe he sells something or sends you on a quest.

So crusied around CAV...hoping he was in CAV.(It was nice to see mobs conning less than yellow....last time everything was red).

Woot I found Zibell.

So I chatted to him got nuthing useful from him except a geography lesson around CAV. So I thought about it for a bit maybe have a crack at him...he is orange(First Orange I had seen in all CAV that day). Buffed up thought I will start with calm...then one nuke see how he hits when I break calm. If it aint too bad I will just nuke calm nuke calm and see what happens.

So Bam one Ings enveloping Flame.

BAM...Reflect damage - 1000 Points
Bam...Hits me for -1158 melee damage(and that wasnt a crit).

Sat back down on the grass....and WENT OUCH!!!!! THAT WASNT BRIGHT!

So now any one care to contribute on good ole NASTY Zibell?

basicly yes though i saw agroup take the merchant in vw the other day it took a massive doctor to keep them alive. funcom don't want their precious merchants becoming a source of xp then they should make the small area around them 100% zones. 1000 point damage sheild should be enough to keep all but hard core people away.

Better that they give 0xp have a 2s respawn and doesn't drop anything... oh and 2hp (like Eddie)


Those NPC with 1000p refects are prob upcoming story (quest) NPCs, that is the only reason to make them "unkillable"

[Cerber]

At this moment all NPCs which arent meant to be for ehhhhh...looting have that nasty 1k dmg shield, reflection shield and fist/pistol/other weapon dmg.

This applies only on those NPCs which were repetebly killed before.

I wonder if DOT's would dmg without reflecting, assuming they don't have a huge heal delta like arks
