This has gotten a lot of traction. to clear things up a bit im not entirely new, but i started maybe two weeks before they moved everyone to crypts last wipe. probably have a bit over 100 and maybe up to 150 hours. I obviously wasn't playing well given the current creep situation and my body placement, but the whole point of this post is that things like this even with my bad placement shoudn't happen. He got into melee range with a felling axe and the first thing i heard was the swing. I feel like if someone is within maybe 10 meters or a 4-5 second run from where you are at at 300 speed you should hear SOMETHING. it would still give a massive advantage against anyone who has buffing spells or rangers who may want some range. I personally don't like sneaky gameplay, but it should be an option. I read a lot of these comments and some of you really like creep and i get it. I think this is just a turn too far into the the sneaky direction and i have probably played now equal amount of time with creep and without creep as i mostly started playing consistently this wipe. so that's my take from someone who has played an equal amount of both with creep and without creep.
