User Interface Mods & WAR

Posted by banstick on September 5, 2008

Couple of interesting discussions going on over at Warhammer Alliance.

#1 – WAR must be MODLess
#2 – Mods already going to far

Both topics are pretty interesting.  In the second topic, the poster talks about a mod that tells people when a Shaman has put an ability called “Gork Sez Stop!” on them (this ability does a small dot that lasts 2 seconds but keeps refreshing itself if you move around).

I tend to agree with him.

Abilities like this are meant to hamper foes in the PvP/RvR areas of the game.  Why you would want a mod to tell you when you have it… I can understand that.  But to Shaman players, it’s not exactly something I would consider fair game.

You have this ability and now someone has a MOD tell them when to stop.

So you had the presence of mind to toss the ability on someone and this slacker who has the game play things for him basically negates the practical nature of the ability.
