clan fights

While in a clan fight a lower ranked clan member stood by healing my opponent. Normally I'd say that's not a problem but i was unable to stun them due to the fact they were not within grouping range. I eventually lost when my spells ran out. While I don't mind dying since it's the nature of clan, I found more than a little bitter that i couldn't properly fight because of the rank difference. For the future, would you mind giving this some thought when it comes to the rules?

I think this would be a good addition.

Maybe make it so the "healer" has to be within group range of the person they are healing (if said person is being attacked)?

that doesnt help if the healer is still out of group range of the attacker

Ok let me think about it.

Should just eliminate group range/ pvp range entirely. I have never played another mmo that sez: "oh you can't help that guy, he's too new." The exceptions to group rule are even more crazy: it's ok to lead noobs to the most powerful item in-game (ankh ammy) or to take em thru sewers (highest concentration of exploration poles) but a noble hara can't take a young templar thru ice nest or tower where both players would be contributing to the quest. I'm sure the pvp range was put in to prevent griefplay, but griefplay is already prohibited in the rules.


Edit: purple should keep it's ranges tho, cuz theres actual penalty for death
