Two tips for VP-ing

[Kip Pocketbottom]

I learned both of these the hard way:

1) If you play with Sound Effects off, make sure you turn 'em back on BEFORE the pie fight with the VP. If you dont, you will never hear the sound the VP makes just before he jumps. Its that sound that alerts you to hit the jump key. No warning = No jump = -10 (over and over)

2) If your toon is tiny (as the result of a toontask), and you are at dangerously low LP (possibly as a result of not having sound on!), it is very difficult for other toons to heal you in the pie fight. The pies fly right over you. The best thing to do is hold down the jump key. This gives them a larger target area to hit you.

Well, if your sound is ON, the VP makes a sort of quick metallic grinding grunt just before he jumps... best way I can think of to describe it.
