So - will this be taken into consideration?

Yes it will, the radius of the duel should be sufficient for those professions that move around to do what they need to do.

LULZ,
please may i reccomend that there be a 2 min or longer Time limit before the same person can typ /duel on the same target. i can see a wave of nonstop /duels just to annoy people^^

If i can suggest something when it comes to solo titles, i'd split it for sides, omni would could have corporation themed titles, and clan guerilla themed (highest would be Ahmed The Terrorist)

Edit: and yeah, solo titles are REALLY bad :)

---

Crat / Trader would be easy enough. Crat = government job titles Trader = Retail positions ;p

Trader.

General Assistant

Team Leader

Manager

LOL ETC..

So best way to get new titel is to alpha every greeni and gamps?!
....stupid sorry

Arena and team titel are nice - but death counter and solo titel / geting points from every kill sux...

We can see that you read the whole post! :rolleyes:

Two questions:

1) Is it by any means possible to lose a title?

2) Does the players' difference in title levels affect the amount of points one gets or only the difference in normal levels?

1) No

2) Just the difference in normal levels

I only wish FC appointed Sil Game director some ~2 years ago.

OT:

Great changes.

You stole that idea from me! Admit it!

YEah... we thought of some.


Kamikaze and etc for shades...

Defender of the Magical Shiny Lovechild Woods for advy.

Unkillable Godlike machine for keepers.

/cry /emo for fixers... and etc.

ur so yesterday :) we are already :) thanks to last patch...

but yeah. this is kind of dualheaded sword :) We just want some to play with :)


on a Duel matter of it.

Why not make it a real duel? and accepting /Duel clear all buffs, and have a Duel grace to buff up. We could even do a /duel ready, so we dont have a timer based grace. This would make it much better :)

This would make it all Solo, and without OB.(Outside Buffs)


ihavehugenick:
Well or Warper :P

I cant use blind or NSD as it also hit friendly targets..... FIX plz? :)


And Sil: Now that we are looking at NW, could we get somekind of fix to taping friendly neuts?
like /putonfriendlytap %target

I wanna be a ninja! Start as genin, chuunin and then jounin:D

In the end you will get like the sharingan and stuffz
