Many times I've been 'instantly killed' while wearing mithril armor+ by crossbow snipers. Wait, what? Triple crossbows aren't used that often. I have never seen anyone even multi-wield during combat, let alone with crossbows. Someone who even has a crossbow is remarkably uncommon, and I seriously doubt there are people who use triple crossbow for purely agressive reasons. Plus, from what I've heard we have a minor skid issue, so it might have just been a guy with hacked reload time.

I've had many times when my charcater simply froze and minutes later, respawned because I had been shot by someone. Ok, this is very frustrating now. Yet again I am being asked to fix the issue of "But what if a player has bad internet, and is killed before they know the other guy is offensive?". Since it is impossible to fix this through normal means, I did a bit of brainstorming and came up with the following solution.

The ultimate solution to your bad connectivity issues!

What this new program that can be added to your computer does, is automatically equip your longest range weapon whenever someone is in range of it, and starts firing at any player the moment they are in range. By doing so it kills any attacker before they can get close enough to hurt you, and solves the long standing issue of "I don't know if this player is aggressive!", by simply shooting everyone anyway. The multi wielder who had the surprise attack and killed you before your internet allowed you to know what just happened? He's no longer a threat, because this new program kills him first! Now all we need to do is have someone who can code this program. I'm sure anyone who wants this game to last would be happy to sacrifice time and effort to make the people with slow connection able to fight against multi-wielding players who have the element of surprise on their side.

Seriously though, it is quite literally impossible to beat someone who gets a suprise attack, has enough weapons on their hotbar to kill you before your internet can respond, and kills you before you know they're hostile (or even there). That is, unless you use the Kill-Aura stated above, which would solve the problem by being a bigger one.

Tl;dr: Unless you have a working solution to your issue, don't complain about it.
