wutafreek 0 Report post Posted April 1, 2008 Actually my suggestion is getting rid of a pit, not adding any. My suggestion? Take away town scorps. Why? Because so many people can get "lame" eks there, and there's plenty of other places a mage can level. I got my mage to 180 here on Nem2, and I only went to town scorps about 4 times total. It would get rid of the level 180s killing low level mages and wars for easy eks, and it would get rid of Elvines 1-minute raiding Aresden. It would also get people to actually search around in the other maps a little bit, if they can't train in town. To answer some questions I know will come up... "Where will I train as a mage if there aren't any scorps in town?" Find another pit to train in. There's 4+ Skele pits in D2, 2 in ML, 1 in Icebound, 2 Scorp pits in ML, 4 Orc pits in ML (yes, a mage can train there), several Orc pits in D2, 2 each of Scorp, Skele, and Orc pits in Promiseland, or *gasp* find a war to party with! Trust me, it's not hard to find another place to level a mage. "Where will I get my EKs if there's no scorp pit in town" Raid ML pits. Raid Hunt Zones in town. Raid Icebound. Stand outside Shop or WH. Find somewhere other than the scorp pit to get EKs. (If anyone feels like translating this to spanish, please do so) (Si alguien quiere traducir este a espanol, porfavor hazlo) "Why get rid of scorps if you're suggesting camping WH/Shop?" Because while a mage training in scorp pit is a free EK, camping/boxing shop/wh will cause a lot more fights, and it will usually be between lvl 180s, not a level 90 mage who's trying to train. Now, give me one decent reason to keep the scorps in town that ISN'T about getting EKs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

' date='May 30 2006, 11:32 AM' post='107985'] This ode to the Scorp Pit Hero goes along to the music JukeBox Hero by Foreigner google it and listen to the song while reading the lyrics for better listening pleasure :P Standing in the rain, with his head hung low Couldn't get a real EK because he is too slow See the shine of the real heroes, if only he could be Put his sword to the noobs , what a lamer is he He had one PVP , just blew him away dead in 3 crits, and the very next day bought a beat up bbh in the blacksmith store Didn't know how to use it, but he knew for sure That one bbh, felt good in his hands Didn't take long, to understand Just one bbh, and 200 str to show Was a one way ticket, to a full hero So he started rockin' ain't never gonna stop Gotta keep on rockin' Someday he's gonna make it to the top And be a SCORP PIT HERO got stars in his eyes He's a SCORP PIT HERO He took one bbh got 120's in his eyes SCORP PIT HERO he'll come alive tonight In a town without a name, in a heavy downpour Thought he passed his own shadow, by the warehouse door Like a trip through the past, to that day in the rain' And that one bbh made his whole life change Now he needs to keep ek'in he just can't stop Gotta keep on ek'in' that boy has got to lame his way to the top And be a SCORP PIT HEROgot stars in his eyes He's a SCORP PIT HERO stars in his eyes Yeah SCORP PIT HEROgot stars in his eyes WITH THAT ONE BBH he'll come alive Come alive tonight You know who you are.. lurking in the scorp pit for that goldie or even better..that mage casting ES with her new Wiz hat on...then youre sure it's an EK. You hide invis in the shadows of the scorp pit waiting for your chance to pounce and take out that little noob. One by one youre on your way to becoming the SCORP PIT HERO!!!!!!!!!

~Jaapy 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2008 I wonder if it really is such a big deal that some people are able to get an easy EK from this pit. Besides the scorp pit, there are other possibilities of getting a relatively "easy" EK. When you remove the scorp pit, people will just camp ML entrances more because that's where more mages will go through then. If you are a mage and you don't like being the victim of these people you can simply train somewhere else (you already listed some good alternatives). So, can you answer why this is an issue in the first place? You mentioned what will change after the scorp pit is removed, but are all these things so troublesome that it will justify the removal of the pit? I'd like to think they aren't.

Hero 0 Report post Posted April 11, 2008 to be honest i don't really care that its there, its a good place to train for mages and if they started getting eked, they can just call for back up in town and plenty of max levels will come help, thus creating more pvp in town which is what we all want anyways.
