New Exp Tapping? - Ultima_Pi - 11-21-2010
Why does getting hit by monster count as a tap?
Dodge/no dodge/no reflect. Wut?
RE: New Exp Tapping? - azurerogue - 11-21-2010
I think it's been that way for a while. That doesn't explain why it is... but is it a problem? It makes sense in some ways, given the potential mechanics of gaining MVP through tanking (generally not a feasible way to do it, but still POSSIBLE).

My guess is making tanks more feasible in parties/not an EXP-leech if they can't hit all (or any) of the monsters while mobbing them.

What is Tapping?
I've heard it used before and about a year ago I was told that when a pet taps I lose Total EXP from the Kill, like sharing EXP, but a while back my Smokie hit a Vanberk and I got 0.03 instead of 0.02 like I normally did. I asked about it on main and they said it was because my Smokie tapped it.
So ya. Tapping = Attacking? And Why was I given contradictory info nearly a year apart?

If you don't have anything helpful to say stay out of other people's business.

Kay, let's analyse your post if there is anything helpful in it.
Fist, a question which is completely unrelated to the whine itself - since it's basically just saying "hi I don't know what you are talking about". Google could simply answer this question instead of randomly spamming a whine thread.
Second, you are talking about "a year ago". As everybody on hero knows, we had SVN updates since then, therefore every information being older than SVN update .. questionable. The only thing you prove in that paragraph is that you have no idea how pets and players work and are different.
Then there actually comes something helpful - a pet attacked something you attacked and you got more exp. Instead of simply asking main, you could have run tests to give out educated information but you decided to just give information from the "main" source which is .. questionable at best. So, not helpful either since random information without proves (nor understanding what's going on) aren't helpful.
Third, you are just asking a question that google (or THINKING, you know, that thing that includes brain cells?) could answer and are qqing a bit: You were given contradictory info because (as you can read above) we had SVN updates (which every old player on hero knows).
To sum it up, so you don't have to do work by yourself by digging through google:
Tap: every player who hits a mob adds 25 % from the base value of exp.
PreSVN-update: players and homunculus (though those are a special case since they eat job exp) dealing damage in any way to monsters counted as "tap" (attacking, skills, reflect).
After SVN-update: every player and homunculus being hit as well as hitting as well as using a non-damaging skill on a mob counts as "tap". Also, pets now (after trying ingame) attacking count as "tap" (but the pet *still* eats the exp part of the damage it is dealing, so your information isn't completely outdated).

Learn to not be so sensitive to everything and trust me, people will treat you a lot better for it. Unless they are Aya, he's just angry with everyone.
But you can learn to not take the words so seriously despite that.
Anyway, to stay on topic, reflect now counts as a tap, when it didn't before. Who knows why the change got implemented, enjoy it for what it is and that it makes getting extra experience from a mob easier than before when partying with others. ;O
