I think it def shouldn't affect monster kills, just pvp registered kills. I cud imagine the tears around a holiday dungeon time if u cudnt get exp from directors.

or hell poison them that'll deff stop spell spamming Xp haha either way the kill/death system is crazy. mages get deaths but no kills and for melee players a lot of kills get stolen by poison
i have 0 kills and 40 deaths because magic/wisdom doesn't count
but as to the not making walls count i doubt it's possible to target a certain spell and make them not count.. and choosing to negate a spell category may work since all "build" spells fall under the "creation" spell category and off the top of my head only other spell that falls under that is food and i don't think ur gonna kill someone with that

I think you and most agree that lamed kills aren't worked for, the most common type just happens to involve magic. It'd be unfair, as you're arguing now, to deny all magic based kills. But it's pretty logical to deny director used kills which are the main culprit of magic laming. It's very uncommon that a pking mage would line up directors in the heat of battle. It's a valid tactic, but since you're fighting to let off just 1 spell w/o being interrupted no1 really wastes time setting up a director field.
On a totally off topic note: I thought it'd be cool, if magic spells were widened in learning level so that everything wasn't learned from 1-18, to have a spell called 'Build Director Field' That automatically builds a director field in the shape of a square, customisable in side by leaving a number 1,2,3,4 up to 6 after the spell otherwise defaults to 3. Thought it'd be pretty cool for a pvp tactical thing. Warriors need not cry since bow = win.
