Hint: Avoiding PKer

[warning!!] after lvl 100, u will be pked somehow somewhere..

there are a few ways u can do to make u less being pked randomly. here is a few that i know of


1) avoid contact with other ppl, less contact mean less chance getting pked, if u here a gunshot or notice any sign of someone, stay alertz!!

2) use the option to show "Hero" name. and if u can see flashing blue name, red or higher color tone's name, pls get out of the way--> run for ur life.

3) use the map panorama view, click the button on ur minimap and if i can see a "X-sword" sign at any place, dont go there.

4) notice that on ur minimap, when someone got killed/died, there is a marker where it happen, immediately open ur panorama map and see what is going on. put ur pointer to the X-sword sign and read what it says..be very careful and prepare urself to run..

5) choose a remote place to lvl, and dont stay long at depot or anywhere without a guard near u.

6) whenever u go to a HP and ammo shop, stock on SteelShip teleporter up to 10 pcs, put that into any un-use hotkey and ready for use when u see a pker coming for u

7) if someone been following u around for more then 1 minute, be careful. if hes scanning ur unit, its a call for u to RUN. if u think hes bigger (>pot) then u

8) pay attention if u see a ball(dead ppl) lying around, better to go away from that as soon as u can. dont be silly asking those ball "hey, what happen? what happen? who kill u.." if u are weak of course

9) when the system says: ur enemy near by, immediately open panorama map and see if he do any pking in the area, maybe he just passing thru

10) when u get pked, ask the pker to be ur friend immediately. why? because u can use panorama map to see ur friend's location..u know what i mean. dont worry bc system msg: enemy nearby will still be there.

11) most important at lvl 117 depot, do not use the "switch funnel-trading exp" method to lvl ur ARM unless u got nothing to loss if u die. often enough i see pker there bc everything on ur main unit's inventory will drop if they kill u while in low lvl ARM.
...(i'll add more later)

Then, to make the free-pk/random pk spree pointless, by making sure ur item is safe and the pker didnt get anything good from ur drop. lets make pk for revenge/battle with reason only. its not fun being a pker when alot of ppl hunting u, but the profit from pking that make pker keep going. Also, if u lost nothing, u can smile all the way no matter how many time u got pked..right?

u must know that the item in the last u unit's inventory that die from pk will be dropped.heres a few hint:


1) ALWAYS!! store any valuable item u got on ur main inventory!! bc it will not drop if u die.

2) u can use a middle safe-inventory as well if u got 2 funnels with u. the inventory of unit that die in the middle will not drop as well.

3) store ur gold into warehouse if u got more then 500k

4) use alternate char, put the char in a very remote place, log it out. when u got so many gold and item, go there, login the alt-char and trade all to it. the best is that the alt-char is below lvl100 so it cant be pked.

5) inform ur team and fleetmate (use chat channel) about any pker u see or pked u. give out their name and pot. u can see his pot from ur enemy list. maybe someone is in the area as well and will be safe and alert, or some high lvl may come and end the pker's fun.

6)
at least try to teleport to SW before the last ARM die

7) spam the pker in whisper channel for 2 minutes or more if u had the time, careful not to stress urself out..lol

8) aim to get a Cabin Expansion device from zpmall and use it. Upgrade it to lvl 3 and refined quality with 4 mets and u can have 50 storage space where anything inside will not get dropped forever! so save ur very precious item in it. further upgrade to Ultra quality will give u total of 150 inventory space.
...(i'll add more later)

for the number 2), if u want to know which unit will die last when u being pked(last unit will drop random item in its inventory), here an example, say u on main unit A(lvl 145), u got 2 ARM with u, B(lvl 120) and C(lvl 60). from A, switch to C, and switch back to A. when someone pk u, C will die last and any item in B will not be dropped as well. but pls put highest valueable item in main inventory still, bc if ur main die from mobs attack, B will die last..and if B been pked, the item will drop as well.

Well, i know that you already know what's the advantage of wearing military badge. And you don't have to worry about the price because lots of people are selling the badge for 300zp, much cheaper... And I bought 6 military badge for my own use...

If they're not on pk, they can shoot and the guard won't attack. The guy attacks if you actually try and hit another player. Although it did happen to me once... I killed a fleet enemy near a guard, the guard said "Ladybird, no pking in my city or you die" and didn't do anything I suppose the guard didn't like that guy either lol

lol..that was funny ms Kalya.

the guard will only kill ppl while his name is blinking-blue. or in a guilty mode. if u attack anyone(ur pk-mode is set to pk), then ur name will blinking-blue. so, if u want to take a toilet/bath break from the game, stay as close as possible to a guard. bc, if ppl attack u(pk), the guard will kill that person even before he make a click.

Oh, So people just sit under guards,
firing their shotgun for know
reason and waste their ammo?

There are some strange people out there...


Unless they are trying to make you think the guard is attack you...
Who knows, Still a waste of ammo?

Hmm..yes they are wasting ammo..most of them are afk, but with heavy object stuck-ing the right mouse button. there are benefit out of doing that. its a common sense so u can guess it if u think more into it.. why a???

To attack a guard you have to hold down ctrl and then click on the guard to attack, though in most other tq games the guards will automatically attack anyone that gets close to a person that is next to the guard. I believe on this game it doesn't work after a certain level so the guards really have no point in the game imo.

You could also get a Bronze, Silver, or Gold Badge and do revive in place not to mention you don't take a pk penalty, at Lv. 150+ most people just use macros or bots in towns to increase there skills that way when they go out of town there skills are super high but you could really just use 29 zp (to expensive needs to be 5 or 10) to increase the skill 4 levels from level 1.

Pking and getting pked improves pride, personality and self esteem. When u pk u get dat feeling of dominance. When u get pked u become mean and start acting diffrent. When u just go ur own way u dont give a crap about the world ur just a nice person or u dont even talk

Plus... I agree to asskicker ur ruining it for ppl who pks and makes money dat way... dats not cool I make most of my money from the elites and mets i get from ppl I pk who farms elites and mets. NOW UR GIVING THEM A WAY TO PREVENT GETTING PKED IN OTHER WORDS UR KEEPING ME FROM MAKING MONEY!!!


Just got back in-game as of 4/20/08! Quited for a while but I missed this game soooo much

wats wrong with pking... if there was no pking or any pvp at all it wouldnt be a game at all... and ppl only think pking is stupid coz they lose loot and valueble items from farming or I dunno... but if they werent so stupid they wouldve put their good items in the main unit... its simple

and when u get pked dont just stand there and forget about the whole thing. Work hard level yourself and fight back! U dont have to take this from pkers even thought u die at least u try instead of running away like a lil noob. Im am a mass pker but i admire ppl who try to fight back sometimes if they drop something REALLY expensive
or valueable i give it back to them and compliment them for fighting back and I make new friends =D

i understand ur point guys. i dont care if ppl pking me, i'm lvling at my own pace. its not a challange to me to lvl more, buy zp, become strong etc etc just to kill an enemy..its not the goal for me.

i just point out a few hint to avoid being pked and suffer great loss from it. i see that no ppl complaining about being pked now compare to the old forum..maybe they have gotten the point already or leave the game. so, dont say like all those pker cant have a life no more bc of this simply topic. beside, only 2% of game population join the forum as well.so, u guys go and kill those ppl that donno..

glad if i actually help someone with this..so, if anyone got pked and loss alots even after reading this, blame urself and dont come to forum whining about it. i'm just a simple guy..
