Forced out of Khaldun Trammel champ spawn.
The other night I was soloing the second wave of the Khaldun champ spawn in Trammel when a more powerful player came in and started killing everything in sight including the mobs I was attempting to kill. He then told me to leave because this was not a place for me and then kept me from killing things to force me out. So I left.
What should I have done?

Please make the Grizzled Mare a 5 slot mount, it's incredibly rare and deserves it. Some of us have been waiting a long time for this simple addition.
Take a better qualified toon?
In other words ignore the ass hole and keep doing what you were doing. If he is verbally abusive page a GM. Don't let him spoil the game for you, I think that type of ass has done more to drive players away then anything else.
If you get lucky he may get killed and need some help getting back to his body. Not that you would drag some monster over to it just to make that harder.
Never be afraid to challenge the status quo
Go to Felucca.
(Admit it, you were all waiting for me to say that.
).
My friend and I demonstrated just how powerful 2 warriors cross healing could be as he lured everything he could find onto us to make us leave. He eventually gave up as we wouldn't conveniently die. Thumb your nose as such people and stand your ground.
Never be afraid to challenge the status quo
If he’s not luring & just being an A-hole verbally - put him on ur ignore players list in options. Never see a word he types again. Continue business as usual.
Are you two the only ones on this shard? You should go to the fel version since no one will be there.
Another instance of a player complaining because someone knows the game mechanics better. You are lucky he did not page on you.
Get better! Or kill the things away from the spawn like the NOOBS do on LS.
TimSt if he bothers you again please ask him to stop and report him. If we are lucky he will be booted from the game for the betterment of all.
My response was obviously a joke - making a caricature of myself. I wasn't pushing anything to be fair. Although going to Felucca, is genuinely one option, as it could be quieter there.
- I really believe you were only joking but since day one of the internet without body language hints the question has always been “is he joking or did he really mean that”. Emoji just don’t cut it. I still can’t figure out what
means - Jokes about harassment are at the least in bad taste. At any well run company it can get you fired not to be PC or for legal reasons but because it tells the person being harassed that it’s normal here and put up with it or quit.
I’ve been seen you here often enough to sort of gotten the joke but would someone new? We should all be careful around new players not to be nice or anything but to keep them around. Once the have too much invested to quit then ..... (am I joking or not?)Glad you are getting better. Someone better than you is not harassment just because they can kill stuff faster.
What template are you using on the first and second wave? What templates do you have available?
For all waves I use the following template:
Magery 120
Eval Intel 120
Meditation 100
Resisting Spells 100
Inscription 100
Focus 90
Poison 90
I used to have Spell Weaving in place of the Focus but it was not as effective as I had hoped and I ran out of mana quicker.
While a lot of people downplay Resisting Spells I find it quiet useful when there are mobs with magic of which there are several in Khaldun. It boosts my magic reflection pool from 27% to 93%. If only it was effective against what ever the skelemental mages attack me with.
The Poison gives a large boost to the damage done by the poison field and poison spells my character casts at the purple skelementals.
Your EVs can kill the bloods and Grey skeles. Kill blue skeles with fire. I'm sure that poison field is not very damaging but its all you have. You cant kill the pink skeles. I cant think of the name of the things that slow your SSI on stage 2 but e bolts and fire kill them just fine.
A guy on LS is a mage and he uses EVs and fireballs. He has all the masks and is collecting books now.
So, EVs , fire spells, and ebolts mostly. The ambushers die with 3 energy bolts. Spells do only 12 damage to the shadow fiends. (I blast them even tho it barely hurts them) EVs do more damage to them.
Even if you only use Word of Death 120 weaving with a 6 focus and 100% SDI can do 600 damage to Khal and the troops when they are below 30%.
You could make a Mage weapon that is 100% poison and another 100% cold and kill the purple and pink skeles. Composite Bow would be best. But that requires a lot of luck to get both since it ends soon.
You should be able to kill stuff. If the guy is killing the pink and purple skeles then thank him.
With the boost from Poison purples die within 30 seconds after touching poison field. Without Poison they shrugged off my poison fields. Now I just throw up a poison field and then forget about the purple.
Focus is speeding up my background mana regen a lot. I rarely need to slip away and use meditation now.
The only thing that I have not been able to solo kill has been Khal.
But enough about my ability to kill in Khaldun. The focus of this thread should be on how to handle harassment from another player.
There is a button on the help menu its for harassment. Use it. if he is saying things use the verbal and make it stick don't jabber back at him firmly say stop and then shut up and use the button. Too many don't shut up and let the GMs handle it. A GM cant help you if you continue to jabber back at them. Be Smart.
30 Poison fields out on the floor in any dungeon/event.
That sound is like an alley cat screaming in heat while clawing a chalkboard.
I agree with Lady_Storm. Why argue with some powerless nerd on the internet? It's not like they can actually stop you from getting looting rights on mobs. Don't give your power away to some neckbeard still living in his mom's basement playing a game from 20 years ago.
Save your arguing for Fel, where you can actually put it into action.
Just do your thing and have fun.
You should do a bit of research on your template though. But maybe you need gear too. Whatever server you're on, there are a lot of helpful, cool, and chill people willing to help new people or returning players out.
Hope things work out for Mr./Mrs. Old-school Mage!
Arthur: "Be quiet!"
