Dear GM Team, I would like to respectfully raise a concern regarding the current PK situation. While occasional PK for karma or during specific events is understandable, the real issue arises when the same PKers repeatedly kill farmers on maps without any valid reason or benefit. Since karma can only be gained once within a specific duration, repeated PK serves no gameplay purpose and instead becomes harassment, making it very difficult for players who are simply trying to farm and progress. This situation is discouraging and negatively affects the overall game experience for non-PK players. I kindly request that the team look into this matter and consider possible measures to prevent repeated, unnecessary PK on the same players. Thank you for your time and for continuing to support the 9Dragons community. Possible Solution. 1. Adding Anti PK Buff [Not in this Favor Though] 2. To help prevent this, I kindly suggest implementing a restriction where, once a PKer kills a specific player, they are unable to engage or PK that same player again for a fixed duration (such as one hour or aligned with the karma cooldown time). If the PKer attempts to attack the same player again during this period, a message such as “You cannot engage the same player” could appear. This would help reduce unnecessary harassment while still allowing PK mechanics to function fairly. Thank you for considering this suggestion and for your continued efforts to improve the game experience. Your Sincerely, Pondrik.
I've suggested option 2. Months ago and GMs did not consider it or even respond. https://forums.playredfox.com/index...eed-anti-pk-buff-there-is-a-better-way.59234/ Also just for fun open a ticket saying exactly what you wrote above and cite the player (s) that is harassing you. The GMs will say it's a PvP game we don't care about you. Try it and post the response here. I eagerly await the screen shot of the canned response from GMs.
Actually I encourage everyone to paste the tickets they've opened concerning the same player(s) killing them. I am sure the responses are all identical but future readers will know not to waste money on this game since GMs don't care.
That won't work the same griefer using 10 accounts will still run circles around QD killing farmers even if a group is fighting back at them.
Also, if you try to kill those doing PvP, they'll run to the Ghiryu Tower, and if you kill them, you'll be penalized. I don't know why it works like this. next time i will use 100% sucess buff damned cowards
Someone in Qingdao was laughing that Watermelonx only kills farmers; if you kill him once, he won't attack you again, or so the legend says.
Also a suggestion I made on my thread. If you attack first you shouldn't be allowed to go to Safe Zone for a while. At least 30 minutes
Not true I've killed WaterMelonX in self defense while farming (just instinct didn't even look who it was) and he came back and killed me on respawn and continues to attack me while farming. I just leave.
Option two is the best, also there’s this player that pk over and over claiming some1 is Imperial alt or such DemonSlayer bot female. Everyone knows my main and only char i play, and i do pvp sometimes, even though im Pve healer, but its part of the game, kill and get killed, i just died alot, but i dont really care about it.What bothers me is that the same player kills over and over and over. Im pretty sure thats all they do, pk in event times. But guys, even if this bother us, it helps keep the balance in the game, imagine if everyone could farm in QD , everything will be cheap , food price will drop alot, me personally, im fine with pkrs but not repeatedly. Get your problem the f.. out to somewhere and leave pve players alone. Thanks all and have fun.
I agree I don't have a problem with PK but the GMs should listen and make a Pop-up like location track asking if you want anti pk buff from that person for 1 hour. Will it help? A little but not really since the person in question has 20 characters. But will the GMs actually do this? Hell no they are completely fine collecting their money from BSS sales and boxes until all players quit.
Other changes they should make but won't are... 1. Make first shot activate pvp mode but do zero damage. Give farmers a chance to fight back and not one shot killed. PKers win most battles because first shot wins. 2. Disable the Hefei Tracking NPC. Farmers can't farm because PKers know where they are at all times. 3. Disable Evade and Success Buff from healers in PvP.
Why should we invent some kind of new solutions ? KR server has antiPK buff in quingdao Hermit. Here its bugged or it was removed. All we need is to fix it as it supposed to be so bring back antiPK buff. PvPers can kill each others and others can grind its simple.
It's not bugged they removed it because they don't care about griefing. Or they want people to spend 20K USD on Comrades to get killed in two shots instead of one while farming. What they don't realize is is tons of paying customers have quit as a result of griefers killing the same farmer every 2 minutes.
Here is thread 97% of people voted for PK buff. Any RedFox didn't even respond. That's how you show players respect by ignoring your customers completely. https://forums.playredfox.com/index.php?threads/this-game-needs-anti-pk-buff.59039/
they dont care about the game at all cant u see.. they just keep adding new stuff, stupid IM boxes, limited events... instead of balancing/fixing 'core' of the game. go and make new char, without IM and trading with players u will never get anywhere.
I completely understand your concerns — when someone constantly PKs/harasses other players, it not only diminishes the overall game experience but also makes everyone feel uncomfortable/disturbed in a gaming environment that should be fun and fair. retro bowl could give you a better experience.
@[CM]NineArts Can some one please Tag HIM and ask what is the Aim of Hefie NPC Which is use to track players on the map because it is not in favor of farmers at all insted pkers using it to abuse farmers in the game i suggest to remove that NPC from Game as it has no role at beside abusive killing of farmers at least they can do this or tell me how to tag players on the forum i will tag @[CM]NineArts Not a Single Reply by Officials on this post Community is Alive but Officials are Not Thank You
