Description

KoS (Kill on Sight) is a feature used by deed owners to keep criminals and other undesired players off of their land.

When a player is placed on a deed's kill on sight list, spirit templars will attack them if they attempt to enter the deed, and tower guards will attack them once they enter the deed's perimeter (if their tower is nearby).

Notes

  • Kill on sight is accessed at the deed token by selecting Manage Reputations. In order to gain the effect of KoS, the player's name must have a reputation below -30, set to permanent. KoS can also occur automatically when someone violates the laws of the settlement on the Chaos Server or attacks the guards on a settlement on any server.
  • KoS is a drastic way to keep players away and should not be used to block roads or exclude everyone from an area on the Freedom server. It is considered to be in bad taste to KoS without reason and can be devastating for anyone who wanders on deed and is killed without reason. Using the guards to ambush people to steal their items on the Freedom Server constitutes griefing, a ban-able rules offense.
  • KoS may not be used if the deed or perimeter has a highway going through it.

  1. KoS first gives KoS'ed players a popup warning when they enter the perimeter or deed the first time.
  2. If they enter the perimeter, they get an event window warning.
  3. If they enter the deed, a three-minute countdown timer starts, and it pauses when they leave.
  4. They also get an event window warning that they are in that countdown frame.
  5. After the three minutes are up, they are on permanant KoS, just like before.
  6. The timer resets only if they are removed from KoS and added back again later.
