Greetings,

there has been some confusing around in our allianze about pulling.

So i want to ask you about it to get a source of information people can rely to, and would also ask if i get permission to post your reply on the forum to point it out to pretty much everyone.

I talked with Nath the other day ingame, if its considerd an " exploit " or not to pull people down from wals or onto the wall, if you got perfect line of sight onto them, Mainly asked for WL and or Mara pulls, i believe for engi and magus pulls it becomes slight different since they pull more then one target and it cant perfectly be controlled how they behave on a AOE pull.

So long story short, is it okay as mara or WL to pull people onto a wall, or down from a wall, or would that become considered exploitation, alot people complain since it want possible on live, and always start to argue if something happens so a reply from a head Gamemaster would really clear this entire thing up.

Thanks for your time reading my gibblish english, and thanks for spending your free time for us derp heads.



Hey Redzus,

Sorry for the delay, took me a while to get an answer from others in the team. It's totally fine to pull people from or onto walls.

As you can read here in the reply, it is totaly fine to pull people down from a wall, or onto a wall.

Since the mechanic requires the White lion or Marauder to have line of sight, so for example even if you get pulled and walk behind anything covering the line of sight you will break the pull, or if get pulled against it if the pull went though, so there is ways to prevent being pulled of a wall.

I really hope this clears everything up for everyone, and people will stop to flame each other ingame acusing them of exploitaiton and giving each other a hard time !!

It's cool mechanic pulling slobs from and on the walls.

Really this is just down to z axis being broken. Its a huge change from live and doesnt just effect keep sieges. Magus and Engi also benefit from the issue. Its just a cop out as there would be no way for the devs to police it and no way for them to fix it right now.

Pulls are lame

Keep in mind, This isnt Live.

Also Not a discussion Threat ! Its a standing Statement.

I'm explaining why pull doesn't work as it did on live. That you don't like that isn't my problem. If you post to a forum it becomes open to comment. If the devs have the ability to fix it and other issues that z axis cause they will in the future until then we have to live with the z axis issues but don't try to muddy the waters as if this was a balance change.

This is My Post, This post Shows, that pulling how its currently working is fine, so why did you even bother to explain something that doesnt matter ??

No body did ask for your opinion, this post is an statement to prefent people like you to even start an argument.

Again, this isnt the Live server,

I would want to ask a Moderator to Lock this threat as its only a infromational Display and not open for Discussions, complains ect, least its the posts Intention.

I also commented for informational clarity that this is only the way it is due to server limitation. Not for balance. If you dont like comment dont post to the forums.

I see no point in locking thread, as long as the discussion does not become derailed.

I want to clarify my statement ingame, as its not currently an exploit does not mean I like it. MY very much personal opinion is that pulls should be be able to be cast from/to walls, but its not an exploit and currently it is a viable option.

a lot less pounce is OP threads on the forums now that marauder pull is in game.
