Well for those of us that are deaf, it's pretty damn hard. Thank you very much!
He was being sarcastic too
I feel so left out. I just get yelled at when I kill merians, I've never gotten teamed by anyone. 
And don't even think about implementing sentient mob enemy status until we get non-sentient bashing grounds (which is very unlikely to happen, since we've yet to really get a bashing ground without some kind of backstory and community). Bashing is annoying enough as is.

Pro: A few people who abuse the vitae->suspect connection won't be able to abuse it in that manner any more.
Con: Why use vitae? More people will be praying. People *hate* praying and will be more likely to quit. Thus, it's a bad business decision to do this.

I already don't use vitae as it is because a.) dying twice means an extra 5% exp lost. b.) I'm stupid, paraphrased log below and c.) praying... you lose 5 minutes and what, 2% exp? OE NOES! I just go clean my room or something. Praying is good for my health!

Damn you, Sham! This was your thread, why am I the one arguing it?
EDIT: Just appended to this post after seeing Xenthos'. I understand that point and honestly, I think that should be the only viable reason for not implementing this change. It all boils down to what's best for business, I guess. Doesn't mean I'll like it. Meh. People should learn to toughen up and not cry when they end up praying.

see above comment for my outlook on prayer.

No, people who troll with them should be forum banned for a week.
I motion for 52x that punishment.

I don't like that idea... cause then, when I'm stupid (and let's face it, I am a lot!
) and forget I put my mending in my pack (cause that's how I see how many of what potion I have, I put them in my pack and then take them back out) and go hunt starsuckers and then die cause they broke something and I thought I mended it but I didn't I can't figure out why I'm not able to shield and they do their super duper attack on me.... I'll loose all my pretty leeches and starsuckers and essence balls! (this has happened) As promised, here is a paraphrased log from me hunting on astral.

Tervic dies to a lobstrosity.
Vitaes, -5% exp
(Celest): someone says, "Tervic down."

Sip vitae.

DOESN'T VITAE
You tell someone, "Well crap in a hat."
PRAYS.
So yeah. That is the epitome of my stupidness. I could've even been flying and skipped a ton of those.

Me too. Stopped using vitae long before I got lich. Just meant I died twice all the time.
And it got to the stage where it was just a big drain on power.
Really though it depends on whether you're dying more to players or mobiles I think.
Once I started to die more often to players rather than mobiles, vitae just gave them a second chance to kill me, but this time with all my defences down.
So... thanks to Ash for talking me into transing Necromancy
Yeah, Lich is sweet. Though I usually ghost before I die while bashing, so that point is obsolete!
And I could even TASTE the sarcasm in that post, Vix...

You must do it when no one with any combat ability is around. I would definitely come for you.
