#418, "Anti-Gang and Cabal Raid"


          


In regards to cabal raiding I think anti-ganging shouldnt have such potency. Just because some warrior might have edges that remark him as 'honorable' or be going against a few at an inner.. doesnt mean he is at all when his tactic is purely to abuse anti-ganging to pull/nocturne of fright/pull one char into his gang of however just a pace away.

The only reason he does not get brutality mutilited going in to try such stunt is because he gets the most out of anti-gang in the process to create a perhaps bigger gang.

I've seen instances where its abusing anti-gang to gang.

I think he's talking about the ability to raid a cabal with you and five of your closest friends. then run into the inner/inners as a bard or warrior with improved drive. from there you go in and try to drive out one person for your five friends to pick off while they try to defend and gang down. where the anti ganging code comes in is that said cabal can have five people defending all of them using thier lagging attacks to try and hold you in the cabal only to miss all of thier attempts to lag you because you have the anti ganging code active. while in reality you are using the anti ganging code to turn a defense into an offense allowing you to gang down the enemy and since you dont need to lag them because they are trying to defend thier guardians the anti ganging code doesnt affect your strategy. you can just run in and get them again, and if for some reason you die at the inner you just run in, loot your corpse unghost and are able to repeat the strategy after you are healed up using bard/healer/bandages/field dressings and go back at it again, in essence abusing the anti ganging code to allow you to gang.

Translation:

Strong character, and in this case, sounds like he's talking about a bard, walks into the group of defenders at the inner, whilst the rest of the attackers wait just outside.

Bard sings nocturne, and sends some people fleeing into the waiting gang outside.

Personally seems fine to me. I like anti-gang code and if anything, I'd like to see it extended to work against pairs (since some pairs are very deadly).
