Do any of you take lots of pleasure from Ks wars?

I've realized recently that I love ks wars, especially ones where other people bring out their mains and their friends in an attempt to ks your low-leveled character out of a map because they're so so so mad at you. I'm usually pretty lax when it comes to training - I don't mind leveling a bit slowly, and it's more of a mindless, slow increase in exp. Therefore, I really don't care if someone is ksing one of my characters. The apathy and light hearted conversation I try to strike up with the ksers either drives them mad or bores them until they leave.

For the record, I don't walk into maps and start ksing people training there. These KS wars I participate in usually involve me walking into an empty map with no drops, and one or two players afk on ropes. A player will come back after 5, 10 minutes and demand that I cc, in which case I explain that the map was empty and used by no one recently when I walked in, so I feel that the afk player doesn't have a right to banish other players and claim the entire jesters map for himself when he wasn't using it.

Read the title. Thought it was about KSphilia.

OT: Yeah, they're annoying, but I don't remember anytime I've lost.

Ks wars can be fun sometimes.
I remember the real annoying ones such as Ksing as STD's and Himes with Hermits/dks/priests also in later patches gallos with arans/evans.

um ks wars are okay. only participate if someone is ksing my guildies training their new chars but generally that dont last that long, monsters die to quickly and spawn is to slow at LHC and i hvnt met and HoH ksers.

Jesters and aliens r generally little kids like really all the do is rage and threaten to bring a high lvl and never do

[quote=TrueDragons]Does it count if you purposely go into a popular map and ks every new class(aka hayato) in the map?[/quote] Lol Are you really that bored? Most people train the new classes for the link skills anyways.

I used to love KS wars. An old guild in Scaina used to do with another guild from time to time (friendly).

It was hella fun. Mind you, this was before BB so the skilling speed was a bit slower.. . . But now with how strong everyone is now, it would be a waste of time.

No, never. However, I do get a sense of satisfaction when I can out last a KSer.

In truth, it's a pleasure to see people rage over small things. Just by being calm, it becomes very fun to see them rage.

The only time where I ks people is when I stream through channels and the person asks me to change channels rudely. Then I feel obligated to take their map and give it to someone more nice that comes along next. I like to think of myself as a modern Robin Hood. But all in all, I do it because I love ksing people. But again, I like to think of it as a gesture of kindness, rather than a barbaric act of theft.

[quote=paying]lol to me ks wars weren't as fun after 4th job (this is like the only I prefer old maple post I'll ever make) and that would be when it came to KS wars. When 4th job came out it was all about the mages who could spam ultimates. After that the fun was kind of lost for me.

I still participate in KS wars from time to time if someone's ksing a buddy of mine at LHC, but they tend to leave extremely fast and never put up a fight or grab other people. Just not as fun anymore.

I also find jesters a really boring spot to have a KS war because nowadays everyone can like one shot them while they are leveling so it just becomes a battle of who's skill can hit the most mobs in one cast, and night lords really aren't the ones with the ability to do that lol.[/quote]

You. Me. El Nath, Yetis map. KS War. BRING IT!
Lulz the hottest spot for guild ks wars back in the day. <3

[quote=Quasar]Only if they make me feel bad and I ks them back and make them feel like a little beetch.[/quote] Lol. Ultimately, I think the best weapon is apathy. If you don't care, I feel like they always lose. It doesn't matter if I'm only killing 10% of the mobs - their intention is usually to make you mad.
