I'm just curious as to how strong they will be, it's all cool sounding with zombies being able to kill players and use their gear against us - but how often will they be able to kill someone?

I hope stronger than a bear. Bears in this game are a joke. On a new toon I can kill them with a starter weapon. WTF mate?Quote:

Finally you have to decide what types of rewards you will give these "active players" that do kill them.
All in all the system is bad using "active players" as its much better to use other systems that cant be exploited by alt accounts, zergs and inactives.
Considering i killed people today, yeah you can. You just have to wait for them to go out of their safe zone which they inevitably will.
If you have high hiding they will never see you.
However, apart from the rare PKer, you are right. EvP cannot kill me in this game, unless I had 3 bears hitting me while afk, and it would take them 5 minutes.
Death penalties and mobs that could kill would be nice.
a noob player has 30 HP. 90 fortitude doesn't scale with HP, it is just a base 7 or 8 HP, I think DDT said. So having 90 fort does hardly anything.
I hit full swings for 22 damage using PO weapon. (Supreme weapons do more damage, i only have a few). 33 damage to the back.
Skills and stats (such as weapon skills and strength) matter more now, but its mostly the low HP of the noobs.
To put it in perspective, DDT can probably kill me with 4 or 5 full swings to the back, and he is 100 in all combat skills. It would take me about 10 in the back to kill DDT, I think. Most players have between 30-80 hp, is my best guess. (Each level up gives you 2 more HP...the bar that fills up above coordinates)
1 to the back full power PO swing.Quote:

It can take 5 seconds or it can take mins. Depends on all of that.
Would take me about 1 minute to kill them.
I'd assume a player like that has good bone armor, close to 100 hit points and knows how to parry so they wont get hit for full blows.
When I was saying 22 damage full power to the front, I was talking about hitting a naked person. With armor I think it'd be more like 14 or 15? Not sure really. Depends on the armor. DDT can tell you more about bone armor damage mitigation percentages.
But then if they parried my full swings, they might full parry the damage or I might do about 5-10 damage depending on their parry skill and if they parried in the right direction (at least its a step up from DF where you can just parry one direction for the same amount of mitigation, in DF its all parry skill level, in Xsyon its part parry skill and part if you parried the right direction)
Not sure zombies are not in game yet.Quote:

I know Xsyon himself wants people to have a better choice in to avoid combat or not. Allowing people to get away is a huge part of that, but so is preventing people that fight for 1/2 a fight then run away with ease isnt a good option IMO either.
Right now unless you build your toon right, and have high running skill and drop all your items you cant get away and even sometimes then you still cant.
If the other person has more agil than you, you likely won't be able to escape. Depending on encumbrance and other factors, but yeah most cannot escape from us due to having high agility and 100 running skill.
Running away is still extremely easy if you are skilled at it. It's not hard to get someone off your trail and out of range of swing distance ( just do a few zig zags) then run away jump off a cliff and around a corner. Turn on hide skill and you'll survive, if you have high hiding skill they likely won't be able to see you unless they were very good at keeping on your trail
