[GIM Useless]

What is your suggestion?: Rework BH. I'm not suggesting we remove it, doing things in the wilderness should be risky and that's what makes it fun. However, on a one world server, constantly being assigned a BH target that can teleport to you instantly from wherever they are makes it incredibly difficult to perform wilderness related tasks. I would suggest adding a cooldown timer on being assigned a new target once you've been killed by your target (say 30 minutes or so). This could be a toggleable feature because I know there are pkers who want to be assigned targets constantly. Maybe 30 minutes is too much but I definitely think being assigned a target instantly after entering the wild is a bit insane for a one world server.

Is this in OSRS?: OSRS has BH specific worlds because being assigned targets in every world would not be logical.

Has this suggestion been accepted already?: No

How would this benefit Alora?: This would mostly benefit restricted accounts which make up the majority of Alora, therefore benefiting the server as a whole. Pkers would start to be assigned targets who are actually geared to PK more often but would also be able to hunt people down in the wilderness like normal OSRS (just without the instant teleport). More people would perform wilderness related tasks leading to more potential for pkers to run into someone in the wilderness.

 

 

Thank you for your time and consideration. I'm excited to hear everyone's feedback on why you think this would/would not work.

This has been suggested numerous times, and always declined. The reason the system allows instant target hunting is because unlike OSRS, there is only a whopping total of 300-400 people on this server if you don't include alts. You don't need a BH teleport to find fights OR pvmers in OSRS. Feel free to try OSRS Pking (or wildy pvming) for yourself if you don't believe me. You have 1 click teleports to bosses and presets that can allow you to teleport, get spec, rebank, and be back at a boss in under 20 seconds on here, including wilderness bosses. If you want to remove BH teleports because they are overpowered, add a cool down to wildy teleports too, so PVMers can stop insta tabbing and returning in 20 seconds. It's a two way street. Not to mention even when attempting to pk you can stand in wild for easily 30 minutes without even getting a target. No support at all.

I appreciate and understand your perspective. Thanks for the feedback.

Gonna have to say no. Either bring freezes with you, get good at pking, or stay out of the wildy. Its simple.

I'm going to have to say no support here as well. I'm not a pk'er, I'm a pvm'er getting killed in the wildy just like you. However, I know how the wildy is in Alora, it's cutthroat and you better pick a good time to go in, bring some gear to anti-pk/tank, or just skip out on some wildy stuff. There's like 10 pk'ers here and they all fight each other all the time, but just kinda think of the wilderness as pvm'er hunting. Without the BH system you might as well remove the wilderness (remove wilderness btw) because it's one of the only thing keeping it alive.

NO SUPPORT from me.

 

Pretty much echo'ing the point that Q and Lunchbox have made.

 

The limited amount of people will effect BH heaps if this 30min timer comes in, yes it sucks to die but we take that risk going into the wildy. I'm back at the boss in a few seconds after dying - no problem.

NO support - wildy can be pretty dead as is. For me it currently is a cat and mouse game between me and the pkers. Who can get the teleport or TB off first, it really makes wildy content exciting and I'm sure this is same for the pker point of view. If you don't wish to risk it simply don't enter or get yourself some back-up. 

 

Also on most game modes being killed is not punishing except for Ghcim,Hcim and UIM. 

[Frag Nite]

No support, wildy is already dead asf

[Mufasa]

No support: but what I would like to add is give people a cooldown to the bounty hunter teleport so that a single guy can't harass you all day long.
