Here is a mini-guide about Map Ownership and KSing What is a map owner? The map owner is the person who hit a monster 1st if no one was in the map. The map ownership stays for 3 minutes and renews when he hits a monster again. *You can check who is the owner of the map by typing the command "@mapowner". What is a KS? A KS is a Kill Steal. When you are grinding and someone decides to kill your monsters and gets the experience. KS Rules: 1) Anyone attacking monsters who does not have the map owners permission is a KSer. *An exception to this would be Town Bosses. Town Bosses are meant for competitive Killing and the map owner cannot claim the boss as his own. 2)If the map owner dies, he is no longer the map owner. What to do if you want to kill in the same map someone is using? 1) Try other channels. 2) Ask the person for permission to kill. 3) Ask if the person wants to party. 4) Ask when the person is leaving and come when he/she is done. What to do if someone KSs you: 1) You can ask them nicely to stop and even use the "@mapowner" command to show them you're the owner and they are ksing. 2) You can use the "@mapblock <ign>" command to block a person from attacking your monsters. EG; Alex is KSing me... I type "@mapblock Alex", and alex cannot attack the monsters. *please note this command only works if you are the map owner. 3) If they ignored you, you can report them either by using "@GM <message>" (Example: @GM Hi, i'm being KSd), or screen shot them attacking your mobs when you are map owner and report them on the forum. (this method will probably take some time and not save your mob). 4) Personally i would not recommend this one but you could just walk away and avoid conflict. Just remember that reporting will help dealing with the problem for the long term and will help other people as well. Pro Tips: 1) Keep Calm: if you get angry or nervous you might make a mistake. 2) Don't type if you are in danger of death. Once you die its over. Find a safe place to type. 3) Don't cuss or speak ill of the KSer (they might SS you). 4) Know your SS buttons! (For Windows: Scroll Lock / Print Screen. For Mac: Command+Shift+3 / Command+Shift+4) 5) Set a macro to shout @mapowner for you. All you have to do is go to skills, click macro and put 1 skill (i recommend a buff) in it. Check the box for shout skill name and name the skill "@mapowner". Now click OK and put the macro on your keyboard. Spoiler This will save you the typing of the command and might even save you from death (in game). 6) If you don't know how to use the SS check out This Guide. 7) DON'T BE A KSER! SERIOUSLY! That is it for this mini-guide. Hope it helps! If you have any questions or anything to add to the guide, please comment below!
What you do when they try to KS you in bigfoot?, he starts jumping and the frames become unstable if 2 or more people are hitting him... Thanks for the macro tip, very useful.
