    Sure. It's ok, I understand the need for your anonymity. I was using the dates of when we got max level as an example to illustrate why the argument of "If I can kill a 24 hour means I am a more skilled player than you" makes no sense, so go ahead pop holes in the theory, you only further legitimize my argument.

    Time spent does not equal skill in game, hence getting 'rare' drops from a 24 hour NM equals 0.

    Thanks trolls and have a nice night.

    this thread has been one giant e-peen contest...

    time =/= skill.
    level =/= skill.
    items =/= skill.
    Killing things =/= skill.

    It's not about what you do, it's how you do it. There is a guy on Figaro that was the first to solo Dodore. That takes skill yes? The problem is that he used a glitch in the game mechanics to achieve the solo. Yes he solod the thing, but he essentially used an exploit to do it so most of the people that called him skillful now call him a cheat. This is what I'm talking about. Again, it's not what you do, it's how you do it.

    Healer strike is ridiculously foolish and accomplishes nothing

    No one EVER said this. 21-24 hour NM create competition and rarity of loot. Which makes it feel like more of an accomplishment when you receive one.

    You should try reading posts.

    No one "glitched" anything dude. It's called emulate. It's good. And goblin is just weak. Look even I can handle him.

    Running outside of the mob's follow range so that they smack you then run away for a few seconds is a glitch. A GM even said so =) Also, I don't have time to watch your video, but Goblin is easy. We took him down with a Pugilist, Archer and a Con easily without using any cheap tricks

    And that would make you take less damage? It's emulate dude.

    regardless of what you think it is, I've actually seen him first hand. It does make him take less dmg because the mobs will hit him then run and stay away for a little bit while 1 or 2 will stay and hit him. This way, he isn't being hit by all of them at once so yes, using this "trick" will allow you to take less damage, regardless of emulate.
