This is getting old

[ConnerMacleod]

Every Baal run is infected with morons using that Necromancer TPPK hack. Everyone start taking screen shots of people using the hack (it CLEARLY states that they are using the hack, in COLOR TOO) and send the pic off to hacks@blizzard.com

Time to send these guys a message that this kind of immature behavior is not going to be acceptable, and that legit PKing is the only way to go. And also maybe Blizzard will correct the flipping problem like they did for Paladins and Assassins.

[Zavior]

YOu got the point. Althoug I haven't seen any of them on Europe, yet.

[YouHaveMail]

I haven't been in a run with one yet.

[fgh24]

i already posted this about anartica on EHCL it needs to stop i agree with u. Too bad blizz wont do ne thing about it.

[decoy_sJ]

hey i dun understand..how do u know if the necro is using the hack? in color wat color? and wat is TPPK hack? pardon my noobility :scratch:

[doubleOObubble]

decoy: A necromancer gets his Bone spirit up really high (often with a lvl 33 bone prison synergy from morrowwalks). Each spirit will deal, with some +skills, about 1000+ magic PvP damage. He then goes in a Baalrun (or wherever people are crowded) and starts spamming his BSs. They are so slow, that they are still in the air when he makes a TP and enters town. When through (to town), he hostiles in the regular way. His BSs are still mid air and now become hostile against those left in the area, starting to track them.

That's about it. It can even be used without a script I think, as the BSs are so slow.

never been to bnet havn't you

[decoy_sJ]

maybe the realm i play on is not that hostile? i dunno..haven really been hostiled much on Asia 2...once a level 50+ pally hostiled my level 20 pally..i died asked him 'huh? y do u do it?' he went like 'lamer lamer lamer' the next moment he was dead from one guided arrow from my 80-ish zon...

i think thats one of the ..3 times i've been hostiled... :uhhuh:

btw..love ur avatar

[chaca]

They do it because they can. That and its pretty tough trying to PK in a legit manner. If you see it happen, they I would do like Connor said as I don't think that this is how Blizzard intended it to work.

[Matt]

Its not that hard to pk legitly, its just easier to be lame and get high level ears with no danger to yourself, so they do it.

[fgh24]

They also can use a tppk hack. So when they kill some it says u have been tppked by ....... module.

[ConnerMacleod]

For those of you that have not seen it yet, this is a screenshot (edited out cursewords) of what it looks like when it is used. It spams in color as you can see.

Although Blizzard probably won't do anything to these people, they should probably eliminate the Bone Spirits in the air when the necro goes to town.

Example of what you see on the screen with this hack (http://img2.imageshack.us/img2/5369/TPPK.jpg)

Gotta love that one - guess the script just wasn't quick enough huh Big Bear?

Chill

[ConnerMacleod]

Barry, I know that is a script kiddie. They can't PK legitimately so they resort to means like this. At LEAST this script doesn't cause the grief kills that the old 1.09 Burizon TPPK caused. Other variants were the thrower barb, etc.

Last night I was in about half a dozen Baal runs with people executing these scripts. Each one was screenied and sent off to Blizz.

Rule of thumb, if you see a Necro join the party, simply hostile him. Or join another game. I tend to solo Baal runs in Act 1 or 2 or 3 games because I'm just that damned good. Last night I really wanted to play in groups however.

I know for a fact that this can be done without any module or hack.
I just lost a 33 zon to a guy who did it manually.

I highly recommend you be vary wary of any bone spirit spammer in any crowded game. Where your attention is on the monsters, his is on you.

I was dead before i knew it.


And im not sure why you guys say blizzard wont do anything... i have got 3-4 accounts banned from screenshots. It does work, you just have to not be lazy and help out your fellow bneters, take that screenshot, send the mail, and then forget about it. Everytime i have gotten a response and a confermation that their accounts and or characters have been banned/deleted.

ya but not there so concentrated on there new project (wow) they wont do ne thing about

[Rimuladas]

well then the response i got 3 weeks ago to the spammer i had banned is obviously fake and a smp spoof from blizzards email server....... As long as bnet is there for d2 there is some support for it....have a tad more faith in the system.

[ConnerMacleod]

Rim, it's so hard not to read your posts while thinking in the voice of Terrence Stamp.

Hmmm, General Zod... Diablo II LOD... Zod Runes! Woot! I get it now.

I have faith in the system, just have to have my faith proved every so often. I do know this is completely doable without a hack, just these people are morons and go about it using a hack. Therefore they should pay.

[g1mpy]

lmao Baranor brings to mind a trav game, some barb was a little too close to the fire enchanted monster, after it blew it msg pops up
....................................
noob was slain by whatever council member
noob : whew that was close, brb guys!
noob has left the game, diablo's minions weaken

TPPK necros, Newest and most "be-loved" build.
You can do
1. Pvm, damn bonecros are good for everything(pit,shenk,pindle,baal,meph u name it).
2. Pvp if u got the upper gears.
3. Tppk, "MUST KILL EVERYONE :scratch: ?"

Now you wondering why so many people make those?

Its the same as Town kill, but much cheaper. I seen Hc.pat Town kill quite a number of times. He would make a game "free shako" stand at town exit, show some poor people that shako in trade screen, press esc hostile right away and ya.........Dead.

If you are not careful with tppk, even you 5k life botd barb can die to this. Only good solution for those who are new(bad gears, must leech in runs)>>>>> Chicken......... Now im not saying u have to use that, you can always exit when necros are in game. Maybe you wont think its all that bad after it saved your lvl 97 sorc.

[Lyrs]

Wow, this just gave me an idea.

Use low lvl Slow Missile on GA or Bone Spirit.

It travels even more slowly. Shoot/spam a huge amount of those things. Go to town and hostile. You'll get massive amounts of GA in teh air, and if it's low lvl SM, it might even time out by the time you hostile. You'll have so many GA or BS flying around.

lol

someone see if it works ^^

[PhatTrumpet]

People have tried that with Fireball before... works but a huge pain in the arse as the Zon has to be hostile with you to to pull it off.
