I think the problems people are having is you can see the person but because they are so small very subtle enviorment obscurities is preventing line of sight which is preventing targeting/attacking ect.

Don't remove the shrink, fix the actual problem which is line of sight. If you can physically see the majority of the person on your screen you should be able to hit/target them.

LOL started the trend, you idiot lmfao. You effin suck nobody gives a shit about what u do. I see why your too stupid to see the huge advantage in pvp this is. Like Become said, its basically forcing everyone to follow up or be handicapped by not using it. So then what, everyone is the same size again, except now the entire distance ranged modifier on targeting is slashed to a fraction of what it use to be. The LoS factor is the only part that actually makes sense, even tho its BS as well. It makes no sense at all that because your smaller, I can watch you run up to me from 40m away and my next pvp target wont pick you up until your at 10m. It makes no sense that if I mouse click target you from 40m away that I can't see the name over your head until your at 10m. Player character size should have absolutely no influence on these mechanics at all, not just because it makes no sense but because it's just plain retarded.

I'm too stupid too see how its an advantage in pvp... Yea that makes sense you dumb twat. Then why the fuck did I start doing it, because I thought it was cool to run around as a small cat? No, try again dipshit. Its because being smaller makes you harder to target. If you can in fact see someone at 40m that small then yes, you should be able to target them. I never said you shouldn't be able to target. The fact is that very small obscurities in the enviorment are causing line of sight issues which is why you are having targeting issues. If anything I'm willing to bet its the Z-axis thats causing the line of sight issue. Being smaller just makes the Z-axis line of sight issue more prevalant. So again I say don't remove shrink, fix line of sight.

Lol try again? Sry I only expect simple things from a dumb ass like yourself.
How about you try again dip shit, LoS is not the reason why next target isnt working. Ive already done this expirment. I stood at the edge of the wall in Terens Grasp and looked over a 3 group standing at the revive spot down below. I used next target and the 2 of them that were normal size were coming up but the little shrunken 3rd player did not. I went down and had to nearly stand on top of him before he came up on target. Maybe you should do ur research first b4 speaking thx

Did you stop to think maybe because the other players standing next to the shrunken guy were bigger? So you know, by process of mechanics they are in fact closer to you being bigger and getting picked up on target while the small guy wasn't.

So yea back to the drawing board. Perhaps you can come back without trying to sound like a douchebag and make a valid point that can't be dismissed by a seconds worth of brain activity.

You guys sure are getting to the forum battleground early in the morning.

LOL you really dont know what the fuck u are talking about do u. Next target cycles through any targetable object or player if ur using pvp target. As long as the object registers it will be cycled through, period, the size of the object doesnt matter. I thought being a guild ldr you might know atleast the basic mechanics that have been around since the beggining. Good god I can't wait to hear your next retarded response. Just a tip to ya, try talking about something u know not what u think.

I didn't want to mention this, but some people are so small that my "next hostile pvp target" hotkey cannot pick them up until they are alarmingly close. They need to make a players "targetable area" in game the same nomatter what race, or what illusions they are using. I mean when basic UI functions are no longer working correctly, that is a problem.

If you/he/she/it were actually out PvPing, then you/he/she/it would understand what others, including myself and Dankshasta, are saying the problem is, and you/he/she/it are only going off on a tangent to fail at appearing smart.

Saleen · 12-28-2007, 05:32 AM

Yep I never pvp you got me there...

My argument is it isn't the issue with being small, don't remove shrink. Fix the Z-axis when it comes to line of sight and targeting.
