Claim Shield - CatsAndBoats/catseyexi GitHub Wiki

CatsEyeXI is outfitted with a Claim Shield that protects players from unfair advantages in claiming certain mobs.

These advantages can include but are not limited to:

  • Differing connection speeds
  • Using approved addons in ways against our rules/ToS
  • Illegal use of third party programs

How it works

For 4 seconds after the mob is spawned by the server, it will be:

  • Unclaimable
  • Unkillable
  • Unable to move
  • Unable to attack or use abilities
  • Unable to be Call for Help'd on
  • Shielded to Physical, Magic or Ranged damage (not immune)

During this time, players have to place their claim on the mob. You may do this by any means of enmity gain. Examples of which include, but are not limited to:

  • Attacking the mob
  • Having your pet or trust attack the mob
  • Using an ability on the mob
  • Casting a spell on the mob

Upon gaining enmity with the mob, your name will be placed on a list. That list will NOT EVER include the names of your pets or trusts. There is no priority or weight attached to any player's name on the list.

After the 4 seconds have passed, a randomly generated winner will be chosen from the list. If any player is not part of the winning player's party or alliance, they, as well as their pets and/or trusts, will be forcibly disengaged from the mob.

A system message will be sent out to every player that had a claim to the mob. This message will include whether or not you, or your party/alliance, won the claim to the mob.

At this time, the mob will shed all of it's Claim Shield buffs, any enfeebles will be removed and it will be healed back to full HP. It will then engage the winning player and imbue 1000 enmity onto the winning player to ensure they do not immediately lose claim due to any technicality.

Disclaimer: Any time your name appears on a Claim Shield list, it will be logged. That log will include whether or not you, or your party/alliance, won the claim to the mob.
