Remove the knockback attacks in Rieves

[Alhanelem]

Basically every (non-zone-wide) event that has been added since WotG has had a boundary line.

I understand this, but most of these battles give you plenty of room. Also, these battles are not intiated by a party and shouldn't be subject to such rules. Campaign battles worked fine without a radius you couldnt step out of. The only reason that's a problem here is because there are multiple seperate battles occuring potentially at the same time.

You of all people should understand that you can't always get everyone to cooperate with you, and you can end up getting pushed out/kicked out

But for me the main issue is when a knockback attack kills you- MOST of the time if you're just knocked back, you can run back inside just fine. the problem is mostly when you die- you can not raise up and get back in within 5 seconds.

Like I said, I can understand punishing people for abandoning a rieve, but 99% of the people getting slapped with 10 minute bans were not trying to flee the area.

I don't care much for the specific method of addressing the issue, as long as something is done to make it a little more forgiving. It would also help a lot if the battle area was actually clearly marked instead of having to feel around for the edge of it. A line needs to be drawn between players trying to abuse the system (thus deserving the ban) and those who accidentally leave/are pushed out of the area.

(10 seconds? 30 seconds? warning radius then a larger actual ban radius? Exempt KO'd players from the 5 second rule?)

It is -literally- a battle arena, the Epitome of one in fact. Where the enemies can in fact defeat you with a Ring-out.

The thing is, while it is, it really shouldn't be. it doesn't make any sort of in-world logical lore or gameplay sense. So you could say I agree with you in terms of the way things technically are currently- just not how they should be, in my humble opinion.
