If you happen to be around when someone casts this skill on you and causes you to die, particularly on a non-pvp server, report them for harassment and let the GM's decide. It's been said somewhere already that this skill should be fixed, for this very reason, and has been brought to GM attention.

Also, stop being jerks to each other please. And stop taunting. Idk what's gotten into some of you. I don't want to see what's left of the community turning on each other out of boredom and nothing better to do.

It is without a doubt the Burn Out skill that killed the lvl 169. The ex-rogue that did this is exploiting the skill. It is meant for a buff not a debuff.
The skill is very potent.... My wiz had this cast onto me with 32k hp and I was down to 1 hp. This isn't funny.. only going to get worse and it's a total utter joke!

How Barunson didn't see this coming is beyond me. They have to be retards.

I play an Ex-Assassin, and frankly, if they removed Burn Out, it would make Ex-Assassin pretty pointless compared to normal Assassin (too much detail to explain here), ideally it should be made into a self buff, but then again, I also think Haste and Haste2 should be made into a self-buff too. If Burn Out could be a single-target skill that worked only on party members, that would be great, because buffing a whole party when the skill only adds Attack for physical classes is kinda pointless.

The Burn Out skill takes 1% off HP per tick, in areas outside Randol, that adds up pretty quickly, and unfortunately, some people choose to use the skill to cause grief to others. I hear people complaining about high levels in low level dungeons, umm, how else are they supposed to get the Affinity? The Sin Killer Title for one is very useful, and frankly, at high levels, there's nothing much to do except one-hit PvP and Affinity farming.

Sat back and eagerly awaiting whatever disaster the Dev's come up with as a "solution" for this problem.

This is just more evidence that my theory that Barunson seeks to create drama and ruin the game may just be true.

Sorry Fae, but as this is not officially an 'attack' skill, your suggestion falls way short of what's needed, as an invis Ex can cast on you while you're doing whatever, yet it don't register as attack, so self-d doesn't activate...Making any accusation/report/whine pointless... You're grinding, all of a sudden u have 1 HP, you're dead..no self-d, no warning, and, if no noob laughing at your fate, no culprit.
Way to go guys, make it easier harass someone and eliminate the consequences, all in one shot.

well firstly i may be wrong but im sure a while back GMs stated that if you afk pet lvl you do so at your own risk so i assume afk affinity gathering would also come under the banner of doing an afk activity so its irrelivent if your on pvp or non pvp if it holds true to what the GMs in times gone by have said about doing things whilst afk YOU DO THEM AT YOUR OWN RISK. So secondley you can moan n complain all you want about what it was that got you killed im not saying what caused you to die im just pointing out that doing things whilst afk there is a risk as veteran players know even on non pvp servers there are some jerks out there who do drop high lvl summons mobs so ok you cant get pked but nothing stops mobs killing us

cj, that is incorrect. you can report it because logs will show who it was regardless. you just need to give an approximate time of occurrence so they have a reference point to begin checking. same way they find invis rogues using keron scrolls. you don't need sd. Doesn't matter what kind of skill it is either.

reporting isn't always pointless.

As faely said this has already been brought up as a likelihood to harass other players and as I already linked another thread earlier petitioning for changes, for Sabrina to look at, many players are asking for it to be changed to in particular possibly a self buff.

The gms at this stage I am sure are aware of possible harassment issues due to the earlier thread on this and I do hope it is changed soon.

In the meantime I agree with faely if you feel you have been targeted with this for example in the case of Sabrina then I would rt it as yes they can check the logs.

I hope it does get modified soon and yes I do think this as it stands is just asking for trouble.

What were they thinking really.
