Ok, so we have one for dishonorable people...

Now how about a little scripts that can read people skill bars.

"You cannot enter this arena without a resurrection skill equipped."

In RA (perhaps not TA/HA) there are some TA/HA/GvG builds that have people without res sigs, but in RA, it should definitely not happen.

This may seem like a huge whiner post, but it is not like I am whining about something that will help only myself, this will help most teams in RA...It is not exactly fun being the only person with a res sig/skill on your team and watch as your numbers slowly twiddle down because noone else resses teammates.

Or rather instead of completely dis-allowing players, give them a pop-up message or something, telling them they have a bar without a resurrection skill, and "suggest" they bring one.

While I am sympathetic to your view, you cannot require someone to bring a res skill in RA. I consider the practice of not doing it dumb, but there may be a reason why they don't have one.

My suggestion is, if you don't like working with Random people with Random skill bars, that Randomly don't have a Random res skill, you should probably not play in Random arenas.

ooh, and for the +1 - bad idea.

The retards you get teamed up with in RA? If forced to bring res, they'd take Rebirth.
So ha.

Although you SHOULD have a res skill, that doesn't mean there aren't RARE exceptions that shouldn't.

I'd much rather that people in RA who bring reses learn to use them quickly, then force people to bring them.

randomly not bringing random rez sigs just doesnt make any random sense and therefore random arenas are not for your random taste in random PVP action. random.

haha sry, sort of a copy of artorius's post but i thought it was clever. anyway, thats the stupidest idea ever, why would there be a restriction on ur skill bar, that takes all the fun away of making a build. dumb idea, hope this post never gets looked at by devs.

MithranArkanere · Mar 27, 2008, 07:47 PM // 19:47

Eh... I don't even need resurrection skills in PvE and in PvP you usually resurrect very fast.

Isn't better not to die?

You can't see me · Mar 27, 2008, 07:49 PM // 19:49

While I diagree with this idea because of its obvious holes, I believe there should be a concept where RA is limited in the sense of access to players who have used 75% of their attributes or more, and all eight skill slots.

NamelessBeauty · Mar 27, 2008, 07:50 PM // 19:50

The thing is,equip it does not mean they gonna use it anyway! Sometimes I myself can be an azz too when my team suk and I just want them to lose so I dont get the dishonor when I leave!

Also, since GVG was mentioned by OP - go to GvG community, and tell them that now they'll need to include a certain skill because Anet says so. I'm sure it would result in an epic thread.

tehshadowninjar · Mar 27, 2008, 08:12 PM // 20:12

Lolz. Alot of people for their builds require 8 skill slots. Especially support ritualists, monks, and support paragons. Most assassins need 5 skills also, + some other elite, if the elite is not in their attack chain, an enchant mabye, and an IMS/IAS/shadowstep. So it's sorta hard to fit it in. The only time you would expect anyone to have a res sig would be a mesmer, necro, ele, possibly ranger, and sometimes a war.

Operative 14 · Mar 27, 2008, 08:14 PM // 20:14

Are you joking? The entire point of the game is to use your experience to come up with effective builds, some have space that include resses, some don't.

The goal is not to res quickly, the goal is to kill the other person before you die.

Chronos the Defiler · Mar 27, 2008, 08:47 PM // 20:47

wow so much negativity...and so many really stupid answers, but also some very true ones, I didn't think much about monks, but they are semi-rare in RA anyways...unless they are Mo/A smiters which seem to be frequent now.

Paragons, i can't really see them not having a res even if they are support, and I have seen plenty of Rits with Flesh.

This is also a relatively TEAM based game, so why not bring something that may help them in this situation?

Quote:

Assassin is my 2nd main, and I can always find a spot for res signet. Regardless of what build I run.

I think you need to take your time reading posts before you respond, I stated that several HA/GvG builds use classes with no res sig, and were NOT included into the idea.

Quote:

At least you have one...

Quote:

"Isn't better not to die?"

That is not always an option, if it was i can see PvP becoming horridly boring and meaningless.

Quote:

"Although you SHOULD have a res skill, that doesn't mean there aren't RARE exceptions that shouldn't."

I agree, in many team builds where it is not randomly chosen, there are builds with no res skills for a purpose which, again, I excluded from the idea.

-------------------

Why not include some of your own ideas, rather than pointing out exclusions :s

Or rather instead of completely dis-allowing players, give them a pop-up message or something, telling them they have a bar without a resurrection skill, and "suggest" they bring one.

There have been plenty of times when I come straight from AB to RA and forget to change back builds, and I have seen other people do it as well.

Sir Pandra Pierva · Mar 27, 2008, 09:27 PM // 21:27

i know lets ban people who are not support and dont bring a rez<_<>_>

maybe a popup message but that would drive monkers nuts after a little

RiKio · Mar 27, 2008, 09:33 PM // 21:33

I have this idea...when Im angry with all the noobs of RA.

/notsigned, because it seems an idea typical of a dictator. ``Now everyone will bring Rez and, if not, I will ban him/her account´´

The Red Messenger · Mar 27, 2008, 10:53 PM // 22:53

/notsigned

People had good reasons listed above...

Tip for RA: never complain when you get a noob on your team. we ALL get a noob (or 2). Instead of focusing on the weaknesses of your team, focus on the weakness of the enemy. Most battles can be won easily by singling out the enemy noob and killing him repeatedly, using up all enemy res sigs.
