having one player not engage = EVAC O.K.!

OKAY so today Ekae and I and some dudes from Apollo or whatever were in Eastern Pens of Rillis in the Fens of Nathsar and so Purity came up. You know, Callis, Sapieha, etc.

So after like FIVE MINUTES of me somehow NOT DYING during a PVP BATTLE one of them EVAC'd.

What.

Apparently one of them did not engage in combat in all, I was too busy trying to find out who it was.

No, seriously. Lol, wut?

needs moar evac tbh

I've previously reported this as a bug.

I strongly believe that if anyone in group initiates combat, evac should be disabled for the entire group.

As it stands now, if I wanted, I could "test the waters" on ganking someone with my defiler using scourge, then evac both toons on my SK if I didn't like the damage I got doing that.

It is beyond stupid to see a whole group evac from a fight when they initiate the fight but have one player with evac not attack so they can avoid dying if things go bad for them.

EDIT: Moving this post to the top section, since it involves what I consider to be a problem with core game mechanics in PVP.

Yeah, good idea tbh about the move. Thanks!

It IS stupid. Maybe Purity didn't want to die to lower tier-8 people. Still, might as well die to them than avoid looking like jerks.

It's a reference to a popular imageboard. More is wordfiltered to moar.
