Hi. So I was doing a raid yesterday when the NPC server went down. The boss was halfway dead (waste of soulshots). I waited 15 minutes for the gatekeepers to come back, teleported back to Dion, went to the east gate to see what was happening and to search for new raid bosses. A group of high levels were having fun just hiting people. Not killing anyone, just playing with lowbies :). One of the guards was dead, and I was wondering why. Anyway, this guy in majestic, must of been 61+, killed the second guard in 4 hits. Does anyone else see something wrong with that? I can understand when your red and out in the field of starter towns you should be able to defend yourself, or kill the guards in the field, but town guards... Common now. And in 4 hits. I may be the only one who sees something wrong with that. Just wanted to share the experience :cool:.
Guards are a great place for a necro to get his summon. Anyway just thought I'd share that little tip with all the necros out there :) Need a summon? Kill a guard!
Killing quest giveing guards is especially fun! :) They spawn too fast though...
I was cruising through Dion yesterday and noticed several umm players.. repeatedly suiciding on one of the gaurds near the GK.
Hahaha, I knew someone would bring that up. I tried to keep the automated friends out of this cause I don't want the thread locked. But here's the thing, isin't killing town guards a punishable offence?
But you do make a good point. If that's one way to slow them down, then I withdraw my so called discussion, or "complaint".

Actually, if they would make it so you go red for killing a guard or a roamer guard around the noobie villages, this would make it much more interesting for the game. Afterall, if you kill a police officer of a village, doesn't the village get a might upset at that person and start to hunt them down.
Ohh, even better, a guard possie takes off after them, and they can not force log or soe out of it :)
Out of curiousity, on what do you base this claim?
my moneys on igginorance :)
/agree
they must be baseing it on some other mmorpg? You can get xp from killing guards ^^ Sometimes you don't though... you use to always get xp... now it is kinda random... On a side not... a friend and I killed a treant at livl 32 & 33... it took a long time, but was a lot of fun!

Ps: How fun was it :D
ys you can be banned for killing a ingame guard
ROFLMAO. Umm yeah.. Maybe you could get punished if you cursed at the guard.. but killing him. lol
I kill them all the time. It's one of the benefits to having spent a yr and a half lvling this **** dwarf. I can solo guards without even having buffs.
Buffed I can kill 2 before resting.
I'm not even all that high lvl really, I'm not even past 70 yet. The guards aren't as strong as you think.
Answer me this, if killing guards is a punishable offense, then why is it they can die? If it wasnt intended that the guards could be killed then they would be invincable like all other NPC's.
All other NPC's are invincible? I did not know that. A while ago though, whenever I logged in I got a message saying that killing NPC's is a punishable offence. Maybe they mean't guards, but I even heard rumors of people killing GK's... So I don't know.

Irony can be pretty ironic sometimes.
You will be banned from this game if you cuss at someone.
Nothing will happen to you if you kill another person, or a guard.

3rd profession Nukers can 2hit Town Guards.
<insert vortex spell> + <same elemental type nuke>.

You can kill someone, but you have to talk nicely to them when you do it.
I remember once on the C3 PTS I tried to solo a guard with by level 59 Glad and no buffs...didn't quite go as planned. Bad thing was I dropped my BW boots and some Dwarf came and ninja'd em... >.<

I think it was more of using AOE effects against people by attacking NPC'?
