Actually, I'd say trip + cheap shot is a counter example to a tactic that only works against newbies. Mainly because thieves have stealth and it's unrealistic to expect a character without permafly to keep flight up 24/7.

I fought Tiiga and Jeede some. Kjrorh and Lakaof at various points in the past.

I'd be curious to know how many kills those 3 players would have had if they'd played a similarly PK-effective class of the same alignment/cabal for the same amount of time during the same time span. Say warrior, necro, AP, muter, etc. In other words, were they so successful because of the class, or because they're top-shelf players who would be successful with any class?
