Distress call is almost purely abuse tool
Michaelh139:
To nerf radio distress in any way would be pants on head retarded.
Alexandrite:
Don't take away another good feature, this game is already missing the good stuff...
I like distressed signals, I don't see any exploit...
Only exploit is if you multi-log or something...

hehehe jov better look at rt tc ;D leave poor tb fighters alone. no one was crying about tb abuse. tc with legal fast relogs is just crazy. i am glad me and fireboy were final nail in coffin of nerfing mercs after redding tc. tb pvp players need more attention and new features, not nerfing last bastion of their fun
Wind_Drift:
This game has a long list of features and mechanics that are able to be abused. Using radio distresses to bypass encounter scaling is somewhere down near the bottom of that list, if it makes the list at all.

Clearly the problem is *not* the radio distress feature, but Fast Relog. If you want to attack abuses in TB PvP, do not scrap distressing, but fast relogging. For example I remember you Jovanka suggested some cooldown to be imposed to characters when we log in to them, and in the same thread it was said the cooldown should make it impossible for that character to attack.

You say repeating is not necessary, but still you seem to have not read: you can take away distressing but that would only harm "Mad Max Wannabes". The pr0s can solo almost anything, hunt with bombers and/or use thieves. So deleting radio distress won't prevent players to get gear too easily. Take away distressing, and people like me who just like to hunt along with newbies will have to walk around the square where your pal told you to go on some IRC channel, hoping you will eventually fall into his encounter.
