Important over powered bug, the nova staff.
I only realised this bug 10 mins before the post was posted and I think it wasn't intended
the nova staff and dark star are meant to take health off you if you use the special moves without any souls.
the nova staff special move 1, lightning strike, does not take damage off you and is 120 damage rapid fire, even without aiming. it classes as one of the most overpowered item I have ever witnessed.

He already knows that. You aren't supposed to be using the nova staff for that reason.

Enjoy your ban ;'D'D

i got an Idea of these very popular EFR used ingame.

I would like to know and see ingame who is EFR at the moment or not. Wasnt that show at the beginning it became live? It could be placed there, where the skill or x.xx is shown, just EFR.

As deaths etc dont count, it should be made public to everyone.

Ye well why bother fight 2 Efrs against u and be killed from behind or whatever , you end up minus in total.
Its just fair to see who is Efr. I would show myself, when i could

And well when they are excluded , they are excluded from the battle somehow, but not you who doesnt know

EFR was originally added for weapon testing, not as a form of protest or gaming of the skill system. While I agree with its use to continue playing when teams are stacked, wanton use of it by better players only serves to inflate the skill of other top players because kills you make against them don't count and they will not even bother with you at all once they realise you're EFRed, since being killed by you is a bonus and killing you is worthless.

I can't advocate changing it much though. It works as above to prevent players from popping an EFR and then playing specifically to ruin someone else's skill without fear of losing their own.

I think it's fair this way: killing EFR'd player is a wasted effort while being killed by EFR'd players is a bonus, something for something. Besides it's secret so it's not part of player's strategy. You can write it in chat, assuming other players would believe you (I can see the trollface , "hey guys, I'm EFR'd at this location, come here to have me finish you off so you won't lose skill", while actually not being EFR'd)

You still get a death, do you not?
