Ability to fire over walls
It feels weird to think that you can shoot an arrow through a wall and hit a tower, i think game should make it so, you cannot attack through a wall, but just a wall if its in the way. Same with a siege, a siege in old times would break down the walls, so the people could enter, i think walls should keep mages and archers from shooting over it.

Sure, if you want to be logical...
This should be the same with other walls beyond clan walls too. There are many caves and such with walls that can be attacked through, both by players and mobs.

Re: Ability to fire over walls
Forget clan stuff, when I first joined this game as a "Swordsman" and was attacked from the other side of a wall by an archer and mage, (blood mummies) MY thoughts if expressed here would get me banned from the forum. So I posted the issue as well.terminator wrote: ↑Tue Jan 08, 2019 7:19 pm It feels weird to think that you can shoot an arrow through a wall and hit a tower, i think game should make it so, you cannot attack through a wall, but just a wall if its in the way.

Someone suggested the walls were low. If that's true, then my outstretched arm with a blade in hand should be able to attack the archer and mage - NO! Not allowed that is just plain silly.
And to really break down that agreement, archers and mages can attack through the the gates and walls in castles. That argument is beyond being silly because those walls and gates are NOT waist high ....

Re: Ability to fire over walls
no no, not short walls... they just have a lot of holes and cracks wide enough to see and fire arrowas, but too narrow for swords and clubs

I don't believe that for a microsecond, and I'd bet a months pension cheque you know I don't.blitzcraig wrote: ↑Tue Jan 08, 2019 9:59 pm no no, not short walls... they just have a lot of holes and cracks wide enough to see and fire arrowas, but too narrow for swords and clubs
Further more, I'd bet six months pension cheques that you don't believe that either.

Re: Ability to fire over walls
LoL - I'm a role-player at heart in my gaming... sometimes you just have to find a way to make a game fit into the world it creates :p. (there was, for a very long time, a glitch that allowed you to enter Silverwood castle for free from 3.2. This was reported hundreds of times, but it never bothered me for two reasons. One, it wasn't really exploited in an unfair way. Two, it was easy enough to explain, from a role-playing POV, as a secret entrance into the castle.... sure the secret entrance thing was a bunch of bologna, but it made me happier )

Re: Ability to fire over walls
I understand that blitz, and the "secret entrance" is a perfect example that as you said did no harm. However to be able to be killed and have no way to retaliate is a bug that creates an "unfair advantage" for certain characters.
And to answer your "holes and cracks to see through and fire arrows through" scenario:

Re: Ability to fire over walls

obviously I'm having a bit of fun, as I always have done with this issue

Re: Ability to fire over walls
Yea yea, and I have the "Agent 86 Rapier" developed by CONTROL that has a secret button that extends the blade twice at long as any wall that it is pushed through and sprays 100 square meters with the deadly poison taken directly from the Scorpion King. It was enhanced in the CONTROL laboratories so one drop, just touching a victim, kills them instantly.blitzcraig wrote: ↑Wed Jan 09, 2019 4:04 pm sadly, the walls are exactly as thick as the sword is long
