Sabotaging is not working like I thought

Ok I though I would be able to sab someone every turn, but that's not the case. It turns out that I'm limited sabbing to every third turn! Is this a bug or did admin intend on making it impossible to sab everything another player has in a reasonable amount of time???

It has always been like that. I can only assume that he meant it to be as such.

That isn't true, I used to be able to sab someone continuously, then there was a limit, the when I reached the limit, I could sab them again, every turn.

just for clarification, the way I found this was being off ppt and one other member of epa being off ppt so there was no one else to be sabbing or spying him while I was doing my work.

sabbing has been like that for me for quite some time
I have sold my account after a year or two of inactivity on the 31st of March, 2010. Thanks to everyone who was there with me in the BWP and the Ancient Brethren.
Adios!

Sabs have always required 3 covert actions. So, once you have depleted your stash of 50, you would only be able to sab every third turn, when you had built back up 3 covert actions. You could, of course, spy someone every turn since that only requires a single covert action.

Firstly, not always. Secondly, he has the covert capacity, it's the other player, the one he is sabbing that is maxed.

I thought it changed to every other turn when nox was introduced.. And you could do 2 then, but im old and memory fades a bit. You are sure its every 3rd turn now and not every other? and is it just 1 sab then or does it let you do more?

Ok, fair enough. I should have phrased as "Always since I started playing". :) On the second point, I agree. If he has the capacity, he should be able to sab.

Yep, I'm positive, it's every 3rd turn.

My bad. I guess just for as long as I have ever been massing/sabbing people, which started in the faction v. GA war, which would also be after Nox was introduced :P

sabbing is 10/day as i think... so if maxed, that means 1sab/ 4.8 turns i guess... Im not sure tho...

Maybe it has something to do with nox too... maxbe the 10/day is only on nox... But dont think its a bug
