Just an impression, but you call it an educated one  :thumbdown:

Well, if we were, then I guess it'd be fair when the NPC servers are down. But...I do not believe we are, Sir Cendrick.

Sorry, I believed this was a known issue.

Some time ago there was a problem with some server, and mobs didn't deliver any damage at all.  Zero.  Nil.  So newbies were shamelessly hunting Ulbernauts, and things like that.  Obviously, immersiveness, training and economy suffered from this.  Fortunately, the bug was solved and things went back to normal (see http://hydlaa.com/smf/index.php?topic=24163.0 for info on that.)

So I was at the arena fighting some gladiators and rogues and suddenly found they weren't hurting me.  Not a tiny single HP.  Nothing.  While just the day [IRL] before I had to use some potion now and then to stand my ground.  And no, I hadn't got training or better armour in the meantime.  I checked other PCs around and none of them was taking a single HP of damage.  That's why I decided to post.

Who knows, maybe Talad blessed me and I suddenly became the ultimate Dermorian killing machine in Hydlaa, but somehow that didn't seem likely...

Regards

Edit- Found yet another instance of this http://hydlaa.com/smf/index.php?topic=24815.0

Okay, I've just get hurt (remarkably) by tw rogues, so I guess
a) It was something on my client's side
b) it was due to communications/lag
c) None of the above

Whatever the case, seems solved.

Thanks

d) the npc client had another one of it's famous hiccups.

This does happen from time to time indeed, I can confirm that. One day I hit the rogue like there's no tomorrow, and a few hours later he snaps out of it and kills me in a one-two.

So yes, I'd say the npcclient hickups from time to time, it is an issue that deserves being looked into.

Yes, I can confirm this.  At times, mods I couln'd possibly handle without potions become easy.  At other moments, mods that ceased to be a problem months ago take half of my HP.

Well, I guess this keeps combat interesting: you can't take anything for granted  :P
