Remove Passenger Seat from PvP Combat Mount

Recommended Posts

Right now, players can mount during combat on zombie/dominated/charmed pets such as crocodiles and scorpions. This leads to an issue where you can disengage combat and become effectively immortal until your pet is slain. You can see this in action with chev using it here (17:25 time).

 

The suggestion is simple. Remove the passenger seats from scorpions, crocodiles, and other combat pets on PvP servers such as Defiance.

Yep this is so bad. Ofc people are gonna use it because it's in the game, but that's not really pvp when you can just jump in and out 3 tiles away.

I dunno if this is the best solution but agreed the whole embark > disembark spam should be fixed.

Another solution could be making it so there is no option to disembark on the ground and you can only disembark by clicking on the mount and selecting to disembark. Then you would always leave your mount where the mount is standing, which makes sense. I think this is a good solution because it lets players still use their mounts, it just makes it so you cant teleport around.

This doesn't actually solve the problem. You're effectively immortal because it resets combat. It'd require a rewrite of the embark/disembark code to make it account for it, or some kind of band-aid fix like adding a cooldown or forcing players to take a hit when they dismount. This approach solves the problem outright and doesn't really feel like a band-aid approach.

Just make it so you cant Embark on a Boat/Cart/Wagon/Horse/creature if you have been in combat for 5 seconds .... similar to how you cant eat if you been in combat to recently

No... that is horrible. Just make a short cooldown for embarking so people can't spam it.
