# Do not babysit players outside your party level range. You either hunt with a party, or solo, but you are not to walk behind lower level players helping/healing/buffing them.

Can you follow without interfering? Sometimes my character would like to merely observe. Of course, with no buffing, healing, or anything, just following, in the shadows.

I guess so. Make sure you stay behind the person so you don't trigger spawns.

I was asking if it was okay to follow for RP reasons, just watching the group, without interfering. I've heard yes, and I've heard no.

or because it's your little sister and you are explaining her how the game works.

i would like to understand whats the point of this rule plz.

If you have someone following, buffing, healing, raising, doing all the work for them, its unfair. Your character should earn most of what they have, gold, items, levels, etc. Its not much of a challenge when a level five has a level thirty doing everything for them basically. Besides, ICly, your character SHOULDN'T gain any XP from that, what are they learning? How are their skills progressing if they are not doing things themselves, and figuring out how to defeat certain enemies and such?

Is it ok to buff a friend before he goes out hunting, if you're not following at all?

Say someone's following, all the people die, can that person raise them? Or would it be breaking rules?

There's no IC point in this rule, btw, so I suggest nobody tries to find one.

Yups. There's nothing against being in a party with different levels. It's guarding a party outside your range that is the issue.

*Starts sifting through plausable IC scenarios.*

So what's the point of the rule?

There's no IC point in this rule, btw, so I suggest nobody tries to find one. It's in the same rule league with the twinking/muling rules: everybody starts a new character at the same level of power, items and influence, nobody gets perks because they got epic friends.

And it doesn't get more complicated than that.

The Shadowflame members usually hold an annual hunt, Which is purely for RP reasons, Normally we would start with meeting all in an Inn and then go from there, Will this be stopped now this rule is implemented? Most usually are within Epic level range but a few last time including myself were npt.

And if this means anything we were all rewarded a DC after leaving the hunting grounds.

Jeez, this isn't a hard rule to come to terms with. It's been around for ages and you all should know exactly what it means.

If you're following a lower level player, you are allowed to buff them, help them, ressurect them and overall lighten their levelling load.

Is that really that hard to understand?

I understand the rule. I just think that it could have something like training with a superior or family members. Like a father teaching the daughter to use the bow and such. They could get no xp, but in the end if the father is satisfied with the skills the daughter acquired in such training he could give her a certain number of xp. :D

there should have conditions such as maybe a DM online to approve the request, the xp could be between 5 and 1000, being 1000 the amount giving at the last training section.


I dont know, just babbling. But, I played somewhere once that we had this system. You used a widget that made a blue light showing trainee section and all the involved and in the end, you set your satisfaction and give the xp.
