I remember mine I was afk with my very first character a cloud giant sword spec. I dont remember the name but I came back to see a duergar anti-paladin had suicided himself against me. I busted out laughing because at the time I couldn't kill a person if I tried.

I have a buddy who used to play that had perma-invis or hidden or something on one of his characters. He had a friend in the Heralds that he killed 4 or 5 times one day while he pretended to hunt down this "mysterious attacker" that kept killing her. This went on for a good couple of hours before she caught on.

My best PKs are all lost to me. I just picked the game back up recently and I'm doing fairly good so far PK wise. Seems everyone is a pretty top notch RPer until you kill them. Sometimes I get a good 20min of spam "You're and idiot" "You're pathetic and weak" "You're wrong to have killed me because I'm an upstanding citizen of Evilbabykillville."
and so on.

This is all pre 30, so hopefully things get better later on.

It was 2004 or 2005 and I was right around the height of my peekay ability. I was playing Heas, a Shokai following dwarf warrior and the Marshall. At the time there was a power gaming svirf thief guy who was known as a griefer. He had been taking cheap, indiscriminate kills on people and looting out of range corpses while offering zero in the way of RP for 300 hours. He was ultra-conservative and pretty much teleported away from anyone who could see hidden.

Heas was a flail/hand (before it was cool) and had Place as one of his legacies. I got killed and full looted by the guy who got me and that thief. I retrieve my leader weapon and start heading to regear. I lose link for a second and blow a bunch of my ghost timer. During that time griefer-thiefguy drops the "fol heas". I go the bank, buy a sack, skin, bread and start marching down the Eastern Road wearing nothing but my leader flail.

As soon as I unghost griever-thiefguy tries to blackjack and get the easy PK win after he just looted me past the pies. Well, Place foils his blackjack and I entwine. Because I'm a dwarf I have like 1000hps naturally, a small hit/dam bonus from strength stat and juiced up leader-zeal. With warcry and berserk I was probably around 30/30. Since I'm a hand spec and he's a svirf I get to hit his vuln. He relies on dodge and entwine spoils that. So even though I'm naked I have all I need to take out an unprepped svirf thief - which I proceed to do via pummel.

He actually says, "Please don't" as I beat him down. Oh the satisfaction of having your prey beg for their life! So he dies, I "get all corpse" and loot one of the finest sets of gear I've ever had on CF. He has a little hissy fit about how the Marshall shouldn't be killing a svirf and I lawlzor.

C'mon and +1 for killing the unsuspecting full looting cheeseball griefer!!!

I was a lv 46 dwarf berserker with just average gear. Thror gave the whole Village who was on at the time (like 3 - 4 ppl at that time) i ended up entwining him and backhanding/drumming him to death with my maces when he was War Master @ lv 51.

Pretty awesome moment.

I played a bunch in the mid nineties, but never got a character past 30 and never actually got a PKW. Then I didn't play for a decade.

First actual PK happened a few years ago when I was playing a crappy sword-spec named after Mike Matusow. An assassin jumped me on Eastern and I managed to trip him to death. After not being able to pull it off in the nineties, my mind was pretty blown. (I have a low threshold for amazement when it comes to CF.)

My best PK, I think has got to be when Eck was stalking Cawr in Galadon for hours and hours. He had a couple of high-ranking Tribs with him and was actually deputized at the time. They all stepped into the Tribunal courtyard and I followed and landed the assassination.

Because the cabal is not protected and I hadn't loitered in the courtyard it was deemed to not be a crime by Arkellin or Mundin or whichever Provincial it was at the time.

Hahahahaha, it is not often I'm surprised when assassinated. Most often it's a calculated risk walking into an assassination attempt from my side. heh But that time was a compelete surprise.

n/t

My first was with Abaxy (Minotaur warrior and my first char past rank 25) vs a famous villager which I don't remember his name. I was about rank 48 (I had bash legacy) and he was a (If I remember right a duergar) warrior and with his friends he attacked the guardian while me and Allysia were with the inners. I rushed out and bashed him all to death. At time I didn't know villagers are tough (I did know exactly nothing about them and I just heard they are strong, but I thought they are just expert players who use no magic!). Allysia told me that I did an excellent job, which I didn't understand why actually. I just knew that I have killed a famous villager. Later on, I learned why villagers are strong!

My best was with Gorb, while sitting inside the village with half hp, and Zameida and the scion invoker (I can't remember his name) attacked the giant and finished him before I can rest one more hour, and attacked inside. I thirsed and entwined the invoker and tore him with claws. Just as he died, Zameida trampled me, so I tried to eyejab him and entwine next. I missed the eyejab and Zameida finished the almost dead Gorb with a charge. But it was still fun. (Maybe my best solo pk.)

Onya lvl 40ish invoker outlander, Cawr lvl 40 fire AP.

We'd been fighting for a while, I was on the losing end. A lot of failed sleep attempts and perhaps 1-2 failed cleave attempts, I fled around, ran out of moves, see Onya catching up and I spam: cleave Onya....

SMACK, cleaved in half. :P Saved my ass and got a charge or two.

And there's another cleave win.

Imperial Fire AP lvl 40 (can't remember the name, he got lost in the purge)
I had an nemesis in Scion, a duergar shaman that was raping his range. He was worth 7-8 charges I think.
He had me driven off to the Throne room where he attempted to summon me. I was low on HPs but I attempted to summon him first as a counter measure.

So, I succeed in summoning him to the throneroom. The council didn't attack and I was like WTF! I thought I had my alias set to bash, but it was set to cleave and SNAP, cleaved him in half and wooosh 7-8 new charges.

Other than that it's been the losses I remember the most... Like walking into a HUGE trap against Scions as Arrna in Hamsah. We were sitting in the Planar Sanctum (I didn't know about scion powers well enough then.) about to jump through to Hamsah and go retrieve or raid or something.

Me and the whole group 3-4 marans go through and gets hit by the lag that is associated with that journey. On the other site awaits the Scions... So, 4 lagged out Marans vs Scions... No Maran survived I believe... My biggest embarassment ever! Led all the Marans straight to death, and back then I had 0 idea how they figured out how to wait there for us. Now, I know better. :P

My first was like 15 years ago. I can't remember the characters' names, but I was a knight thief, and I dual backstabbed and one shotted a dark elf shadow assassin. My hands were shaking so hard from the adrenaline surge that I had to cut link immediately afterward. I couldn't type. It was crazy and I was addicted.

Over the years since then, when I reminisce, my losses always seem to come to mind :P The PK victories kind of melt together, but the losses still sting. :)

Like, I remember a year-two years ago when my invoker lost to Flaayin and Gryilious. I hit them with a cabalmate, and Flaaayin used pepper dust on me before he started tripping my cabal mate. Trying to save my buddy, I casted cancellation a couple times to remove the pepper dust to no (obviously) avail .. but I did succeed in dispelling my own flight, which led to me being tripped to death immediately after my cabalmate.

I remember when I was playing a fort storm warrior sword/flail spec and lost to Altin. He used a questy sanc source and entwined me before I entwined him. Rather than flurrying, I tried to blind him before he could rewield and started trying to choke him when that failed. Still irks me.

I remember playing an imperial shadow assassin, Ktaar, and I failed an assassination attempt against a battle warrior named Brinkmun. He then permalagged me for a ton of rounds until PK death. I never tried to assassinate that bastard again. Always reduced and tranced.

Anyway, the adrenaline is still there, but for some reason it's the missed PK opportunities that leave the longest memories for me.

I remember you being really bummed then ;)

Ktaar was awesome! And your other chars have been awesome as well. (Malakhi as well. hehe)

While he slept, and blamed it on a nexan assassin.

My best pk was with the same character. With a haste stave I took out three ragers in less that 40 seconds I think. Ask ritur.

You had an interesting take on SCION etc.

It was with Knacnar - I was defending against at least 4..I think it was more like 6 nexuns at the Village all by my self. I used the dash legacy to dash, attack one while they were prepping, and landslide into the destructor. Kept using that tactic - they were pretty unorganized. I killed at least 2 and the destructor yelled 'IS THERE NOT ANYONE ELSE??'

God I wish I saved that log. Sigh.

Putting down Hunsobo with Brinkmun was a rush like you wouldn't believe. Especially with just how bad he had been wtfpwning battle at any and every oppotunity.

First pk was with some no-name arial spear spec. It was probably my third or fourth character and someone had just given me the long titanium spear and full midnight, which I thought was cool as ####. I had no idea about it's progs or anything...just that it was shiny and did a shocking bite attack and ####ing DRAGON ARMOR. Lvl 13 or 14?

Anyway some arial thief backstabbed me and got wasted in a round. It was a huge rush.

My favorite pk was either one of two, both as Hralpelk.

The first contender was when I killed Mharlndaarn solo(Flaaayin did get one hit in at the end for a 'wounds' or something) and then drove off Flaaayin, completely prepless for both fights. I was pretty pleased about that.

The second contender was when Adekar(roleplaying as Hralpelk's adopted god, Chemarcan) and Thror were RPing with me about the whole village prophecy quest with the dark-elf weaponsmaster etc. The dark-elf weaponsmaster tasked me with killing Gvantulak(the Emperor at the time, I was an anathema) with a promise of a 'great reward'.

I was really low on con and tried and failed twice, barely escaping. I also had my ideal suit at the time. Full Dern, 2x Humansunders, Hell sword spec gloves, etc. However, Gvantulak always had a posse with him of pretty skilled people. Omork, a fire giant warrior with a nasty suit, Faolai, who was Twist's shadow lord, and a handful of other blades. Empire was seriously in power at the time is what I'm saying.

Anyway, one time I got shields from one of my only IC allies, a trib invoker, and prepped to the gills with everything I knew how to do and rolled on into the Imperial Lands. I paid Miyatzi a decent sum of gold to put quicksand down at the centurions, and I hit the centurions. Four or so Imperials rolled up, but I flurried down Gvantulak and then sent them all scattering.

I was feeling high and mighty with my newfound awesome hell loot from Gvantulak's corpse (5 horned crown, anyone?) and decided to try to push in after Faolai, etc...despite being really low on hp and pretty beaten up. Next set of centurions, Faolai and some warrior killed me and took back all the shiny hell gear I'd just looted.

I'm still not sure why I pursued them after killing Gvantulak. Such a stupid move.

Anyway I got a few con for it and told to stay alive until I could receive my 'great reward'. Sadly I con died about a week later after throwing a con point or two away trying to solo Dern and get a good regear going. Anathema life = not many friends to help pick you up.

First: I was playing an evil assassin named Junon, and I had pretty much no idea what I was doing. I was sitting in hamsah, a thief steps out and attacks me and my friend who is teaching me how to play says trip him. So I do, and I actually win somehow. For my efforts I think I looted his jewelled dagger or some other common weapon that I thought was overpowered.


3 Favorites: I think my favorite one was with Allysia just because of how it was pure luck. I'm sitting on Eastern, fighting patrolling guards for some reason, I sing apocalyptic and I kill Otuerghad. Turned out he had fought Akedeh and was running down eastern after taking a beating and he happened to walk in right when I sang, and it killed him. Had a good laugh on that one.

Second I'd go with killing Ckath with my herald bard, cause that was fun too and really, I PK'd Ckath with a herald :)

And lastly Thendrell killing Gollywyn in a duel. I used everything I could think of, used spirit of the blade and aristaea in the fight and had one hell of an exciting fight where I ended up winning right at the end.

Good times.

I was coming back from the FoN ( with my uncle helping me with directions) and another Assassin attacked me. I freaked out, and thought I was dead. Somehow, he died, and I got what I thought was the sweetest dagger in the whole mud, the three blades dagger.

Along the lines of greatest dagger ever, my very first character was a paladin. Another paladin, named Kriscun, saw me in the guild and told me to follow him, which I did, and he walked me to Ofcol. He marches me into the golden temple where there are DRAGONKNIGHTS!!! OH MY GOD THEY MUST BE SO BOSS!!! He requests a full set of golden dragon gear, and gives to me (this is back in '95 or '96, don't remember exactly). For those who don't know, this was very shiny but very low level gear, like +1 hit, +1 dam and maybe a bit of dex and some basic ac. But I didn't know that, I was wearing GOLDEN DRAGON GEAR!!!

I thanked him, returned to galadon, looked around, and then proceeded to attack a group of three because for ####'s sake, I'm wearing GOLDEN DRAGON GEAR!!! and must be unstoppable.

Two rounds later I'm dead and holding a single pie, nothing else, wondering why my uberamazing equ didn't spring to life and kill these bastards.

Good times.

I was practicing some skill, dash I think, and was semi-afk when a thief comes in and start pwning me with flee/knife. I noticed quite early but I didn't have my normal aliases so all my commands went "Huh?".. But unfortunately for the thief, the area reset so the only exit closed and he killed himself with flee spam. And I got a sweet loot :)

Curious if a door closing on him is what actually killed him, or if it was just RNG.

a phylactery of free movement

Unless the exit was no_pass?

I've lost the logfile unfortunately.. So maybe just RNG then.. sweet loot still =)

I had thousands of PK's in the mud I played for a decade or so before CF. I've only been playing CF for a few short years. My first (serious) character was Rhyaldrin and Malakhi would frequently make me his red headed step child. One day I logged on just as he finished the Nexus inners and he demanded a duel for the key. The veil was already thick and I figured I had no chance but a few beasty drums and a well timed entwine later and I won.

I hadn't had a rush like that at the other mud in years. My only regret was not switching sooner.

Haha. I remember that. One of my favorite moments as Malakhi, also .. even though I lost :)

Back in 1995, I was living in a small ass town of 500 and my family still had ties in the church back home, so every Sunday the family would go to church and I'd get on the computer at our old house that we were renting to my brother and his friends and dial up to the local college, use the account they hadn't deleted yet (It was against the rules to mud from a dial-up, so I had to use all kinds of accounts until they just quit trying to stop me) and I'd hit up CF.

So I was sitting there with my low level warrior. PK ranges started at level 5 back then. But I was just coming out of the emerald forest (or what was the emerald at the time, I can't honestly remember the names of the areas), or anyways, I ended up just south of Midgaard (it coulda been the silverwood for all I know) and this guy runs up to me and casts a spell and it HURTS! I'm like WTF? What is this lightning bolt crap? So I do the ONLY thing I know how and kick dirt, and all of a sudden this guy (I'm blind by the by, so that's a clue as to what I was fighting) and he says to me BASH! Now bash! So I bash, and he says good, bash again, so I bash again and poof I make a corpse. He splays out his hands and say "Behold, the spoils." and the guy I killed comes in and grabs the goods before I can get any. So the guy gives me a bastard sword from Arkham and says all victories should have a reward and he walks off.

I got golden eagle, was like lvl 43 or something, and I killed a fire giant warrior with furor. I don't remember if he was injured, but it occurred in Hamsah. I felt like a badass.

There was this felar assassin who was in the fortress of that time, who was given the ability to take people to honorable combat, even though this was far past the time of the knights. Anyways, he was kicking ass all over thera and rumors of him taking people into honorable combat always seemed to end with him being victorious.

So when he found me and took me to honorable combat, I was sure I was done for. Long story short: after about 30 minutes of solid honorable combat, I came back VICTORIOUS! It is seriously one of the most epic things I've been a part of. A shame I didn't know how to log at the time.

And then Twist proceeded to multi-kill all my characters from that point on :)

Just like his handle on Dio's when he wasn't an IMM was unmguy or something like that.

Summary: I (Gnuff the Nexus pincersvirf) stripped axe from Drrinia the battlerager and later killing the said rager with his own axe at a fight that started at Nexus inners. Drrinia was pretty tough compared to Gnuff, so I'm proud of that kill.
