Does anyone else hate it when people call themselves the "Best FNS Player"

Does this annoy you?

Doesn't annoy me at all if they can prove it, Kytria could call himself the best bow user in AU, AlLuc with the sword and so on.

One thing that annoys me is how easy FnS is. Being good at FnS is basically a matter of aiming where people will go, right clicking the ground is fairly easy.
By that logic, we can say the same for everything else.
"Bow is reel ez, you just aim and shoot"
"Sword ez two! Just aim an clik"
"Fishing rod is reel easy aslo!!!? Just aim where u think he go an clik it"

Whenever I see anybody call themselves the best anything, or 'pro' for that matter, I assume that you're going to be incredibly arrogant and overall not the best type of person.

There are too many compariables to define who is best, anyone who states so are just ignorant.

I seriously feel you are just trying to defend your title of being good with FnS.

Will write more I get back from party

"I'm good at right-clicking the ground and luckily hitting people with fire."

All FnS is is just hoping your enemy is stupid, every other quality can kind of be measured by skill in someway.
It's not just "Right clicking the ground."

It's more like: "Switching to your FNS hot key in a split second while quickly turning around, placing it directly in front or below them, then at same time hoping they don't expect it, the instantly switching back to the sword.

Are any of those tasks remotely difficult or skill-engaging?

It involves timing and precision, so most of the time, yes.
Timing and precision, could you give me an example? Like, give me an exact situation where 100% timing and precision are needed.

You may think this is stupid, but it'd help me out to see so, since the way I see it, flint and steel needs neither of those qualities and I'll explain.

"Title" what are you talking about? I don't need a title to prove anything, I know I'm good with the FnS, and there are hundreds of others who are good with it too.
I don't agree with your post so I will reply to it stating my opinions, that's all there is to it.

I'm curious to what more you're going to write in reply to

MJM239 if you want to see where timing and precision is involved with the use of FnS, watch my montage.

Most of the time against "noobs" you don't need timing and precision. Just place it in front of them and they'll walk into it. But here are some examples where you do:

1. You place the fire directly behind the player and then hit him into it. Pretty hard to accomplish.

2. As the enemy is jumping, you place it directly on the block below them while they are in mid-air.

3. Unexpected fire trick.

4. When the enemy is chasing you diagonally, you quickly move your mouse towards them and place it in front of them, then continue running.

Alright, flint and steel requires right clicking the ground to light people on fire. Switching to other weapons are irrelevant, flint and steel is the art of lighting players on fire or using it for defensive purposes.

Now flint and steel can be placed in a 4 block radius. So essentially 16 blocks to get a player on fire if they're charging at you. And most players are generally easy to predict at a close radius. This is what in my opinion makes flint and steel easy.

Now, you try and say with the same logic applied every other weapon is easy. However I disagree and believe that they require more skill.

A player who is 'good' at the sword should know how to perform each technique, strafing, crits, block hitting etc. These are all techniques which require precise timing. Flint and steel requires placing a block of fire down. Hey, half the time people just run into it even if it was placed a few seconds beforehand.

Bows are one of the most complex items in the game. Predicting a players movements is hard and that's why, IMO there are hardly any outstanding bow users compared to FnS users.

Fishing rods are actually fairly easy in my opinion to get the hang of, but perfecting it is also hard. Regardless of if you're using it for fishing rod stuns, knockback it requires very precise timing.

I'm not calling any FnS user bad, I just feel right clicking the ground in a small radius isn't as hard as other aspects to the game.
