The problem does not lay within traits but in mcmmo. I suggest removing the plugin that always causes problem; mcmmo.
GUYYYS The server is occasionally laggy with some bad times. But removing part of what makes the server good is NOT the answer
Sorry but mcmmo does not make the server good in my opinion. And I can't see why being able to kill 20 people in a few seconds alone with skull split ever were a good thing. I simply find it hilarious and stupid :P. Now remove mcmmo and make people drop armor already.
I know one thing, i am personally against god armors and that kind of pvp. I want more plain armor pvp, and that woulden't be possible with mcmmo. I haven't pvped in a while due to these reasons, but I can imagine skull split being pretty much the same. Anyhow, I do not feel like making this a discussion with you since it won't change a thing. So... Cya.
I question your use of the word "growing." Pvp is heavily one sided. you have to have god armor and a high mcmmo to get anywhere. It is extremely hard to grow when you're required to be on the server quite a while to be successful in PVP.
750 axes 750 swords Get that, your damage will be on par with the rest of the PVP community. I guess you then need to level acrobatics and the like, but still. It isn't as hard as everyone makes it out to be.
true that, acrobatics is easily trained. just fall from some blocks, i trained my acrobatics when i was rping... i never activly trained it, it just happens XD
Even if it is, then that still won't help the community grow, where as @Party_Penguin27 said the community is growing.
I never said it was shrinking.... I was just pointing out that the pvp community isn't really growing. I never even mentioned rp...
While yes, in a cause/effect sense the blame is on them, I don't think anybody should be forced to perform such mind-numbing tasks for days on end to make any real progress in the ability to participate in an activity that many servers take for granted. I wouldn't pvp regardless of MCMMO/plugins or not, since its just not my cup of tea, however this system does seem a bit ridiculous, especially for a minecraft server. PvP ability should be sourced from the players ability in PvP rather than the amount of time spent grinding in a huge black pit. Also, the reality is that many people can't/don't want to join a large faction that would have a darkroom, and wouldn't have access to one otherwise. A player shouldn't be doomed to inferior combat skills for months just because they don't want to join a huge war faction.
Small factions i know who have a darkroom are too plentiful to count. Also, i know others like me give a darkroom combo out to any allies who ask so they can train. You dont need to join a wae faction. An hour a day, for a week or two, in a darkroom is enough to max axes if done efficently. Minea small one if really needed, only takes a few hours and yoy get a lot of minerals. The system works, and isnt broken so doesnt need to be removed. If people put the effort they do into complaining into actually training, half the complaints would be redundant.
Forgive me, I have only been on this server a small amount of time, and did not know this was the case. I see your point, and while I would not train either way (like I said, no interest in PvP regardless), it is true that people do love to complain. However, the main reason I commented (and gave you the disagree rating which I now feel mean and guilty about, I don't often use grey ratings :( I'm gonna undo it <3), is simply because this feature of the server/game, PvP, is essentially unplayable unless you have put all the allotted time and resources into a very dull activity that does not well represent the fun and excitement of this server. I'm not saying I have any better ideas, but I feel that you should at least be able to jump into PvP at lower levels without a near certain insta-death. ((DISCLAIMER: Most of my knowledge about the PvP, Darkrooms and everything is second hand, don't sue me.))
The way I train is like so. 30 mins in darkroom, 30 mins alchemy, 30 mins building, 30 minutes break (can RP here if wish). Keeps the dullness out of it, and allows me to play a game of LOL during my breaks xD
GG Coming up with an idea which would annoy atleast 95% of the PvP community who have spent hours training stats in a dark room.
I have a acro tower, gave it to a friend with acro, he had 750 acro in no time. Also sharp 5 axeexpert and speed make you train easily. I have ADD as for that I hate boring stuff, meaning I can't spend more than 30 minutes only drakrooming, wich is hillarious that I have 1k axes and 300+ swords. Just have the right stuff and the mcmmo will flow into your scoreboard
I think this server should make up it's mind wether it want to be rp or pvp cuz they are interfering in my opinion. A rp server with pvp aspects should certainly not have god pvp, it's an rp server after all. By removing mcmmo and the abillity to keep armor on death i believe we can being rp aspects even into the pvp since soldiers will wear plain armor, not god armor. When people are more cautious, there will be more time for tactics and rp in the war.
But my potions...my mad wizard skills ;_; (Do you mean the /whole/ plugin? or just the /fighting/ part?)
UH NO. I like my non-vanilla potion skills, and all the other stats I have on MCMMO. They're good skills. >:V
I think a lot of players would not like this initially, just like most major changes to the server, but after a while it would overall increase the quality of PvP. I'm certain that having plugins like McMMO on the server do cause some lag and do cause some of these PvP bugs, since it is a fairly involved plugin with lots of things going on.
There's currently a glitch with mcmmo atm. I think @2108U9 figured it out, so I'm going to tag him to explain it.
by removing mcmmo and the ability to keep armor on death you would be giving people with 50 plus sets of god armor a huge advantage against others as someone in iron armor or normal diamond may as well be a zombie to me if im in god armor fully potted with a god axe
Me and 210 did test the bug yesterday on each other and figured out some stuff but I'm too lazy to explain it sooooo.... Go 210 powah! @2108U9
Remove MCMMO and get ready for a hate of most PVP community since they have spent shiz (pardon my french) ton of time on training and it would just be for nothing.
