We've just released the new Encounter system across the NBZ. It is 60+ Encounters now, all working to bring a better level of interaction into Encounters, bring forward the skill checks that are being tested, and to bring forward the world. The system is Heat, Rep, Monitored, and zone aware. We will be adding Job-aware Encounters in a very near-term release ("hand over the package, Knight").
We hope you enjoy the changes, and we hope you share you feedback, bugs, and suggestions here! The Encounter V2.0 system finally opens up the door for what we've envisioned for CK for a long time and its a very exciting new start!

grävling - there is sure to be a lot of tweaking, many-many-many more exciting Encounters to add, and balancing, and probably some typos  Can't wait to see everyone's feedback, big project I've been working for three weeks now!

I tried a bit the new system and it's an awesome job you've did guys. I like the fact that you know which skills/attributes you're going to use before hitting the buttons, it helps a lot to decide what to do next.
I had a strange encounter in a Knight Horizon zone. I was approached by a Brave Star team that told me they disagree with me sticking around the "0" (that's what they told me. I love that idea BTW). The system told me that I have a bonus to negotiate with them (+2) but there were no option to talk my way out, just the flee or fight buttons. Was it a bug or did I miss something ?
Some times later, I stumbled into a bleeding enforcer and I really appreciated that encounter. It's obvious that you guys worked hard at improving the game and I can't say how thankful I am.
Thanks a lot !

Andrew (fallen) was the driving force behind this new system.
He took the vision we crafted for the game and executed it brilliantly.

beuns - the "0" is a bug ... Should have read Knight Horizon. The part about talking your way out would have been active if you had positive BraveStar rep ... Will fix that. Thanks and great feedback. Did you save the enforcer?

I did save the enforcer. I really appreciate the outcome (I don't want to spoil it for those who don't went through it yet).
For the other encounter, I have a positive rep with BS (around 60). I had a similar one with the Yakuzas and it shows 19 in place of the name.

beuns - fixed the rival assassin's encounter. This is an encounter that happens in friendly territories -- the enemies of BraveStar show up and want to teach you a lesson for getting too friendly. Fixed!

I tried to save the enforcer, but my electronics skill was too low and he died in my arms. Is this a 'once only in the game' sort of missed opportunity, or will another dying enforcer come my way sometime later?

Thanks fallen. I've met the problem in almost every zone I've visited lately (as I said in another thread, I tend to have positive rep with every one), and my stealth skill is soooooo low that I get caught in fight every time :-\
