80 Ganks & Camps my team

[tripleboxed]

Even on a PVP server Simulacra it seems unlikely that your lvl 1 and 2 toons were able to be ganked. Are you sure they were not just a bit higher in level since you have region protection from that sort of thing at those levels?

I'm not even sure you can be flagged before level 5, anyone know the answer?

correct lol

A druid was camping me the other night, I was lvling my paladin team over the AV weekend (got from 67 to 72 too xD)

I am going to turn in my AV quests at lvl 70, and I see an 80 druid camping hillsbrad and figured I could kill him. Well he ended up having some wrathful and relentless, and kicking my butt quite easily.

I figured he would let me loot up and leave, I mean he already wiped the floor with me, right? Nope... 3 times in a row he kills me. I logged over to my mages and ran over and one shotted him 5x insta-cast pyro style.

While lvling up in zones like STV, I usually bring a main team of my over to the zone and leave them logged out there, if people kill you log over and return the favor. Let the griefers now killing you means that a group of 80's will be hunting them down, so they usually will just leave you alone.

When I was lvling up my first time, I just lvld up a 2nd or 3rd team if another one was being camped and the person just was not leaving, it beats sitting there waiting.

That still doesn't help the ones that have alt accounts for spying on multiboxers and will logout when we go get our 80s and then log back in when we get back on the nubs.

Actually it's a lot easier than having a spy. My main back in BC was a rogue and if people pissed me off enough, I would camp them until they logged out. I even had some nasty macros -- stealth on their corpse, and spam my KOS macro -- /target <name>, /cast Shadowstep, /cast Sap. Didn't matter if it was another stealther or not, the instant they rez, it would find them and have them sapped before they could restealth, and as long as you were on their corpse, the range for shadowstep would get them 100% of the time. But back to the trick -- since I claimed to camp them until they logged... All you need to do is try to add the enemy player to your friends list. If they are online, you get "player is hostile", if they are offline, you get "player not found"

2 - I'd started levelling a human pally on Jubei'Thos for no particular reason at all where I also have a level 35 NE Hunter on another account. A level 10 undead rogue pops out of nowhere in the northshire starting area and starts ganking all the level 1s and 2s. This goes on for a little bit and I log off as I'm getting nowhere fast. About an hour later I log on my level 10 undead warrior and in general chat this guy is beating his chest about how much fun he's having ganking all the lowbies in Northshire and asks if anyone wants to go with him. I strike up a conversation with him and ask why he's doing it, apparently he wants to have loads of kills and likes to piss people off. So I say to him "I won't come but whisper me when you get there and tell me how you get on as it sounds like fun". He does. What he can't possibly know of course is that my hunter is now parked/stealthed in northshire. Poor sod never saw it coming and the funniest thing was he really couldn't see the humour in getting constantly ganked as he's whispering to me that this hunter is a *&%**%%$ and is ruining his fun.

While players in starting zones can flag themselves by either attacking or typing /pvp at any level, I can't imagine that a bunch of level 1s and 2s are actually flagged in Northshire abby. Elywynn forrest is alliance territory which means that alliance are not flagged by default.

I think we miscommunicated. I was talking about being on the receiving end of a multi-account camper.

Unless you're saying attempting to add the opposite faction's players to friends lists generates a "player is hostile" message? Every time I've tried that, I always get "player does not exist."

I'm pretty sure that still works, but it's possible they may have fixed that. The other way that still works is to simply do /invite <playername> to a hostile player. You'll get the same - either player not found (offline) or player is hostile (online).

So im questing with one of my favorite teams that im currently trying to level when this 80 comes out of no where like a rogue i believe he is and places a campfire by my bodys anyway, what he donest know is im keeping track of him now and i will be 80 very soon and i will hunt him down.

I'm sorry. Boo hoo? It's a pvp server, so you signed up for it.
