My 1st Amazing Darkfall Experience - An Important Lesson to Learn!
I was in one of the Alfar's kobold camps when two people didn't want to share the spawn anymore. They promptly attacked me and chased me off. I decided it was time to bank anyway so I went and banked all my goodies. I went back and saw that the two were still there, and one of them was low on health. I immediately attacked him once, and he began to ran. So, I mana missiled him every 10 seconds, so I'd go rogue, blue, rogue, blue and etc. He finally stopped and tried to kill me, and I actually made him go 2 minute rogue, then I started my assault on the wanker. He was quickly losing since I had almost full health, and he tried to SPRINT and cast heal self, which of course, depleted his stamina a lot faster than I did (I always carry stam pots anyway). He ran out of stamina and I killed him while he was still rogue. He also forgot the most important rule of banking often. I got around 200g and roughly 200-300g worth of gear and armor, including a new shiny banded helmet. I'm guessing he didn't think he would die because of his friend nearby. (I have no idea why his friend didn't go and help him....he stayed at the camp)
The lesson of my story is that it is fun as hell, loot/gear gets recycled really quickly if your not smart about your surroundings and keeping a tab on your health and stamina. Also a major important thing is *Be careful who you attack and what you do, because it can and will bite you on your ass.* I'm a full believer of karma, and thankfully in Darkfall, you can take fate in your own hands and all the spoils to boot.

let the flames begin.
seriously... post this stuff over at the darkfall forums.. noone here cares (I do) and you will only start another mindless bash fest.
Good story, thanks for posting.
Ignore the trolls.

Its funny how people who hate Darkfall spend so much time talking about Darkfall.
I guess being a fat troll means having no friends, no girls, and nothing better to do than spew hate on internet forums..
isn't it a bit weird to chase someone and hit him every 10 sec so you don't go rogue?
stupid system imho...
I wasn't trolling, if you were insinuating I was. I was warning him that posting this kind of awesome story on here has lead to crap in ever post.
But I am glad he is enjoying the game and I hope to meet him on the battlefield some day!
You actually do go rogue, but only the 10 second version.
Weird, I suppose. My guess is that it will eventually be tweaked. We'll see...
Not really. I wouldn't of been able to do that if someone else was around me, because they would attack me. His stupidity of running away....towards the middle of nowhere....is what screwed him over. If he had more people around him, then I would of just left him alone, since I didn't want to be attacked while rogue, and i don't want to go red.

So someone who is probably new to sandboxes shares his excitement over a routine sandbox experience. Cool!
For ME.. see what I said? ME .. this game is sooooooooooo kidish. I am glad the OP likes the game and I dont want to take anything away from that. But for me there should be NOOOOOO banking.. FULL LOOT... its not. Most will be like the op and BANK. No bank would make DF for ME AWESOME! Then I would have keep playing.
So its not hardcore because you can bank. Now you want to be hardcore.. DONT BAN K. When you can REALLY lose things.. you think better, fight smarter.. gets really fun. But this is just ME!

Ha. That sounds like an awesome experience. Even after years of PVP, I still get giddy in PVP combat - just something about it. And I love the fear of loosing my gear. Gone are the days of gaming and watching movies/TV at same time - I must have total concentration now.
