Some coder is trying too hard with these advanced codes for whether you have PKS or not. Seriously, this is beyond stupid.

Thaddeus died because he couldn't hit ANYONE in the group, even though they were slaughtering him. Why was it even changed?




You are too tangled up to do that.

With a focused look, Marsu strikes at you with an elegant silver rapier. The
blade bounces off your sternum, delivering only a shallow puncture.
You shrug off the effects of the venom.

Avechna whispers in your mind a warning, and you stay your hand.

With a focused look, Marsu strikes at you with an elegant silver rapier. You
are pricked in the gut and bleed slightly.

You feel an aura of rebounding surround you.

You suddenly perceive the vague outline of an aura of rebounding around Marsu.

Seeing as how all your input isn't shown here, obviously, this isn't 100% sure. Going on what you HAVE shown of your input, however, I'd say it looks like you possibly lagged, and that the message about having to stay your hand from Avechna should have shown up before Marsu hit you. Also, this current log doesn't show your input on trying to hit him again, after you got that message from Avechna.

Could you show the raw log, perhaps? I may have been there, but I'm by no means a fighter, and honestly wouldn't have noticed if you had gone further or not.

It does not show the message "Avechan whispers in your mind that Marsu is free game." or something similar to that, I forget.

Lag will not re-arrange the order the Mud output is received, it will only delay it, so it is impossible that the lag caused the "Avechna whispers in your mind a warning, and you stay your hand." to appear after Marsu struck. It is some sort of a bug.

He hit me a few times after that also. The same has happened with Magi... and guardians putting their ents on me.

You're in enemy territory, so technically, they can't get suspect on you if they kill you in enemy territory but that doesn't mean they should not lose suspect on you for it.
