As a PVPer, I know how frustrating it is to hit a KVT, then hit a halc right after. The end result of this is a wasted null fuse and energy. High rankers may not be hurt too badly because they have 1000s of fuses but the low rankers suffer severely from this problem. I would like it so that a halc will go of before any of the other traps do. That way, you don't waste valuable null fuses.




DONT CRITICIZE TOO HARSHLY

there are a few solutions.
1 only hit people who CANT have a halc. people with over 3/5/5 actions
2 use trap probes
3 up your arti production

Problem with 1: I hit weak ppl with 3/5/5 becuase they take less energy on average to kill and i want to be energy efficent.
Probelm with 2: I will soon run out after a couple days of heavy PVPing, then i must npc for more.
Problem with 3: Low rankers generally do not have over 10k arti production and therefore cannot produce very many fuses.

How many halcs do you hit, and how many kills do you get?

4 rank up to the point your bt pool is small enough that you can hit a halcyon, wait an hour and a half, bump through the entire pool of people in your bt and find them again and finish the job when it expires
5 hunt with a legionmate similar scan/rank and hit the same target, sometimes you get the KVT sometimes they do, sometimes you both get the kill.
6 steal a planet or zero someone and have yourself alerted and kill those who hit you.
7 open a second tab and wait 2 hrs and then finish the job. (only do this to a few or else your browser will lag and crash and you lose them all

Ehh... the null fuses will come. I agree that it's tough for the first 150 ranks or so, but the challenge makes each kill more valuable, no?

if you don't get enough AP(null) and NPC(probe) to support your PvP "life style", you should probably work on those. That's not a problem with the game but a problem with your choices.
For a long time I couldn't afford the upkeep on some top tier modules. But that's certainly not the game's problem but my own. How many times have you seen ppl come on forum and cry about the upkeep of something is too expensive? (I want to cry about that on the merc tbh, it is kinda insane lol. but that really is my own problem)

No. Dominion Auto-Blaster Upgrades' what makes players PvP, after that, they go back to what they would normally do on a daily basis. Anything after that could either because you love PvP, seeking the leaderboards, base scans or everything. As for the OP, if you chose to hit 3/5/5 players, you gamble with potential KVT + Halc combo, it's really your fault because you know most players who has 3/5/5 typically have Halc on. As said above, more Ap/H, more Null Fuse to burn. More Null Fuse to burn, less topics' going to be made same as this one.

What I always say outside the game... Basketball is life, well for this game, PvP is life
Stryll Trap Probe (Uses Left: 91) - Not much of an NPCer
Null Fuse (Uses Left: 153) - PvP on a daily basis
Time Manipulator (Uses Left: 5441)

If you're a low-ranked PVPer, you have other problems than not just having enough null fuses. You won't be able to auto-rank off PVP, so eventually your energy bar will force you to stop playing.

I think you are generalizing your problem. This is not a PVP problem, this is a "you" problem. Get your AP up, so you can get more rescued prisoners and null fuses. Then, after your ship is stronger, then you will be able to PVP longer with fewer issues.

Do you honestly think traps should be considerate towards the enemy? No! They should wreck the enemy's day~

You don't wanna waste energy and fuses, don't attack those who aren't likely to retaliate(but will likely have krio-halc on).

There are consequences for everything you do in this game, wasting energy and a fuse is your consequence for doing something the "easy" way.

As a more helpful comment, I will say what I always do. The traps should not have an order in which they can go off. If someone sets a KVT before a Halc, the KVT should not have to go off before the Halc does. I see no reason why they should go off in the order they are set.

actually per my own experience, quite and opposite.. as many players bellow rank 150 does not use traps and/or the competition is higher.
Anyway, golden times back <100 rank...

Player after rank 150 are often aware what do to against PvP attacks

when i was lower in rank i actually used halc and THEN ktv... so those who want to disable me WASTE their null for nothing! i so love it

Not enough nulls either means : not enough artifact production or pvp to much than intended for the rank.

Or both.

-1

Null Fuse (Uses Left: 106) (1 days worth)


Artifacts 142679 points / hour
Wolfy Minion
the Elite
Rank 1863 Dark Smuggler

So you are saying I need more artifact production or pvp less?

Wow if thats what your arti production is, what does mento get per hour
Last i heard it was about 130k

ya I passed him awhile ago, he hardly plays any more
