I imagine there is some code of etiquette. Obviously not enforcable, but things most people agree on.
The reason I am asking, is I helped out a guy on a hunt, and he used his griffins to grab most of the kills and just used my orcs to take the early archer shots.
It doesn't bother me too much, it's only a game, but I assume most users, if they get someone to help them in a hunt, as they are getting the cash anyway, they wont deliberately compete to get more kills. |
in a perfect world, the exp and skills would be split down the middle. But sometimes, it's not like that. I've had hunts where the situation u describe happens to me in reverse. Like when I play with a de, for example, they sometimes use their shrews and speed to get most of the kills and skills.
In every walk of life, you will have to deal with good people and not-so-good people. It's the sad reality of living on planet Earth. |
It should not matter who gets more kills. If your helper gets more kill, then your next hunt of this creature type will increase less than 15%.
What you should NOT do, is try to get more kills at your partner's expense. For example, deliberating blocking your partner so that he can't attack, or, not blocking shooters when only you can because you know the shooter will shoot your partner's stack instead of yours.
Some people are so petty that, instead of casting an assisting spell like Disruption Ray or Delay, they would rather attack with their hero for a few extra meager points.
Obviously, people like that never get my help again.
When both people play as a team, neither one will notice or care who gets more kills. |
Usually if they are nice, the two players should split the kills as evenly as possible. If one player has already killed half the creatures, then he should fall back and let the other player kill the rest. If this isn't possible because the other player can't kill the rest, then he should be helped to kill as close to half as possible without losing the hunt.
This goes a long way especially in higher levels where you have limited hunting partners. Also as you might imagine certain factions do better against certain creatures. So this give and take understanding is good for all. |
Yes, I notice that some people make a big deal out of "splitting the kills". So I try to go along with it. But it seems a bit childish to me. I actually don't care at all if my partner gets 90% of the kills, whether I'm the helper or he is. Really.
Maybe it's because my reason for hunting is for a chance to get an artifact. Somehow, that thrills me much more than the amount of exp and skill points. |
I hadn't thought about backing off to let the other person get the kills. I think that's going a bit too far.
But in this fight, I was on the right he was on the left. He used his griffons to jump to the right, kill the guys I could get to, and then his slower units got the ones on the left, because I'd sent my faster units to the right and used my archers on the units on the right. |
some selfish people like to take the whole skill point
the only reason they ask for help is hoping his partner take the dmg for him
in my opinion,don't help this kind of people next time you see them waiting
let them solo if they really want everything in hunt |
yeah selfish people are there but don't you think that we must also compete with them instead of living them alone what they have done with you simply give tit for tat and help him+take revenge+more skill points
though an assistant's action like this is not an offense coz he is coming to help you by wasting his durability of artifacts not to make you a battle hero but for skill points and experience |

i think that says it perfectly and i agree 100% i dont think it matters if u kill more than your partner as long as u dont treat them like dirt, if they specifically request for you to leave them some kills then be a good sport and share it out other than that dont try and be REALLY greedy just kill as much as you can |
for Elven_Lord:
wow)just try to explain it to low level elves)90% of them just ignore and kill everything they can see and doesn't matter assist them or ask for assist( |
| Most of the time I'm just concentrating on winning the fight. It does bother me sometimes when elves use large druid stacks for relatively inefficient lightning rather than stoneskin, though. |

lol, sad thing is that there are some high level players who act the same. |
