I did a test.

I stood in bichon wall for 5 mins and recoded how many ppl said "H PLZ" (or equiv) and these are the results

ppl asked for health in 5 mins: 27
of which said pls/thx: 15

27 PPL!!! 12 OF WHICH WHO DIDNT EVAN USE MANNERS

Damned right an well said maty!!

Really gets on my wick when they can b bothered
to say "h plz"but can't b bothered to say "ta"

I'm lvl 18, and about 50healing xp from finishing
all my heal training... After that the only reason
for healing ne 1 will b b/c I want to...
I'll still do it.... But not so much me feels...
Sad in it?!? What a differance a little bit o' politness can make :(

All I can say to these sad people is go buy a HP pot. Many "new" players may find pots a little pricy but its ridiculous for those non base dressed level to demand heals, especially impolitely.

I have been asked by a warrior who uses a great axe,
"h"
"H lots"
"H Lots NOW"
I have only healed him once and he knows I will never heal him again. This player is so lame. He runs into masses of mobs to get experience points and immediately demands "H" from the nearest tao available. Well "H" and a very belated "Plz" does not equate to a blue pot. He probably saves pot money that way. All the manners of an ogre. Well those who frequent Zuma will know who I am talking about. All I can say is save your mana to heal your skele instead.

I have seen many excellent warrior characters lower level than him who take great dignity in maintaining themselves. They will only ask for heals in dire consequences. Heck I heal any character class without the need for asking in dire circumstance when I am not overly swamped myself. But then again I am very, very cheesed with the use of "LOTS" and "NOW".

Ever been almost PKed cause you haven't healed someone? Been there. If I DO heal you, it's out of respect and someone/something/some cause I don't feel I'm wasting my mana on. I have been known to heal N00BZ in town whether they need it or not.. I just built a fighter and know what it's like..

I find that as a fighter I don't use mana pots, I will actually collect and GIVE them to taos that help me out. Hows this for an incentive?

The bigger issue at the table is DumbAsS mages that repulse for no reason by the stores and OBVIOUS trade areas.. I mean WTF... what is the point -- what are you proving??

I was in ST with my Warrior m8 when we came up against more than we could handle..this is how it went..

WAR:HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
ME:k(healing myself also as i am weaker than the war)
WAR:H NOW DUDE IM GOING TO DIE
ME:kkkkkkkkkk(started to heal him constantly and used HP for myself)
2-5 seconds l8er, the warrior died, falling into a pile of LARGE HP leaving me to finish off the last 2 mobs..
WAR:TOLD U

What i want to know is y the hell he didnt use his HP pots??
I used em and survived!
DONT COUNT ON A TAO TO SAVE YOUR LIFE..2 second to type and send 'H' to the server..2 seconds to get from server to tao..2 seconds for tao to take in that war needs health...2 seconds to target and hold F1...5 seconds for health to go up!

JUST USE A BLOODY POT FFS!!!

"h plz" and "Ta" gets just heal
"h plz" an no "ta" gets heal, then poison
"H" gets just poison till they learn some manners :)

Hmm, Might carry a couple of extra DE's., can def see
this plan of attack causeing extra pk rations 4 me

Still ya gets what ya ask for, but how ya ask
decides how good it gets :)

=========================

Maybe a "please heal me" would be polite enough to warrant a heal

I just don't think to ask a tao to heal me... why should they? When they spawn in the centre after death do they ask warriors to give them a couple of hp pots? No...

If a tao heals me I say 'thx' or 'ty' but if he casts blessed armour over me I am more likely to say 'ty v much' or something similar, because that lasts a lot longer than a couple of heals...

PS actually once on phoenix server I was stood in bichon trying to regen health but desperate to get running again (low level wiz practically dies from running to woomyon woods! Need a pot just to get there!) and I asked Marshfarmer if he would heal me just once so I could go. He healed me three times and the very first heal shot my hp up to max I had to tell him to stop!

That's the only time I've asked for a heal, except for times when I'm grouped with a tao and he asks me to conserve my pots so we can hunt longer... then I give it a h3 a couple of times.. I don't beg for it every time I drop 40hp.

It is worth helping others out, thats for sure, but
if you have the choice healing somone polite about it or
some 1 who jus wants what ya got and then leaves....
C what I'm getting at..

I suspect most Tao's r the same, by lvl 20 certainly,
they should have there heal all lvled up. Although I
think it does still get stronger as you get to higher
lvl...:

I still remember that purity 24 blackiron you gave me, so I feel indebt.

WHAT!
That is EXACTLY what is was Saying
Copy cat...Did i just say that...NOO!

always hitting me

H = Weakness
NOW = Soul Fire Ball

H + NOW = Very fast death.

Cocky warriors that show weakness and no manners can be killed very easy. If you are getting tired of such 'commands' simply place your weapon into your bag (to avoid nasty +curses) and soul fire ball them to death.

Taos can be nice, but if not appreciated can become very deadly if used correctly.

NOTE: All the famous PKs are Taoists.

Help fly the flag for taoism people lol

Enembius said it for me: "It has never once occurred to me to ask for healing. Even if I lag out and die (very rare but has happened) I use up 4 large hp to get my health back up to normal. If I don't have any I run to the pot shop.
I just don't think to ask a tao to heal me... why should they?"

I guess I am too individualistic to keep mooching for help... like Valdis puts it: "I have seen many excellent warrior characters lower level than him who take great dignity in maintaining themselves. They will only ask for heals in dire consequences."
Well, this is individualism in practice folks...

Problem is that pple think of getting healed as a right... its very socialistic attitude and it is not surprising to see it being fairly common these days, UK being what it is for example...

Had a good laugh Gelentium... "when they ask i usually just heal myself, they keep saying "h", so i keep healing myself, then they finally cotton on and say "no, heal me", i say "too late mate, all me mana has gone" " :/

I felt I couldn't use it but now I'm looking to try and refine a spear... but can't be bothered to mine...

I hope it was good to you.

I know there are people out there who actively seek out a tao to heal them when they're less than full, but it really just doesn't occur to me to ask! That's what pots are for aren't they? Sorry it just doesn't enter my head...

I had level 5 maggots in the mines and they went through a rough patch with some ezombies and I worried about their health... so I asked a tao to heal them and gave him 2 large mp which is more than enough but I still felt greatly indebted to him, even though he told me it was ok...

I hate taking. Whatever it is I feel I can't take, I must only share or swap. It's how I am day by day without mir... I just cannot have more than anyone else because I deserve no more than anybody else.

I think this is the beer talking this time.

repect m8

Toast: Level 3 (12%)

when i played my warrior as main char, i used to hunt with my m8 who was a tao, and at that time, i didnt know how much mp healing actually uses, so i asked for heal all the time and felt like a twat, and now that i have a fair lvld tao, i know i should instead have used some more hp pots

and when u ask for heal in the middle of a big mob, remember that healing doesnt heal u faster than a pot, ok? ;)

"WTF?"
"WOW!!!"
"I HAVE A HEALTH INCREASE SKILL!!!"
"I'M NOT EVEN A TAOIST!"
"WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW!!!"

It was sooooooooooooooooooooo funny! I was lmao!!!

But, Has anyone ever had a lvl 22 - 25 war ask them for "h x 50 now!"? I have, why the hell would he need 50 heals? I am a level 20 tao and my heal heals half my life (i have some special stuff). WTF was he playing at?! A level 7 tao would need less than that to heal him to full hp from 1! (and that includes if he misses and heals someone else by accident or himself).
