1fgm more important then a lvl!!!????

[necrofill]

/whine
okay here come alittle whine from an alb to other albs!!!
That i experinced today in thid was chocking, no more or less!!
I type /who thidranki and see there r 40 + /anon albs in thidranki and we r camping ck at mb at that time there for i type in /cg that im getting a ram and while im getting that ram and say "inc with ram" in /cg, 1fg sb's kill 1fg alb stealther, and then i come to ck hill, all albs r gone exept the 1 pala guarding me. I still manage to place the ram perfect but died afterwards.
And that i can conclude out from this is that 1fgm is more important then 1 lvl there is the reward for takeing the keep!!!

/end of whine

U shall free to flame, comment etc. on this post and i dont care a sh*t

 

[Bejeezus]

I'd like to be able to tell you that it was just misfortune and they were an especially retarded strain of Alb.... which is unfortunate, since I'm basically honest and they sound about average.

 

[Ocalinn]

i was there but stealthed, and i said in /chat that mids were inc to mb

It didn't help yesterday when a new of batch of albs into Bg1 insisted on starting their own cg, even when there was one already established.

Having nearly half the people in Thidranki talking in a seperate CG, because someone's ego is too big to consider joining an existing one is pretty sad.

Arrrghhhhh... that is the one thing I despise, even worse than not joining a cg you know is there. Sadly with the kind of numbers we get, whenever you get more than 20 Albs teamwork can go sharply downhill as everyone rushes to do their own thing.

 

[sharon_corr]

Actually, given the numbers, i think albs would do _extremely_ well if they'd divide forces on different tasks.
For example 1 cg of albs could concentrate on the keep propper (mainly tanks, healers, some appropriate casters) while the others could clear MB of any unwanting visitors (could very well be a stealther cg or similar)

I think... and its just an assumption... that Albs arent used to communicate too good. I've nothing with being outnumbered/undernumberd, but in my oppinions, the alb thidranki "veterans" could take some time to train those who dont know what they are supposed to do and such. Would yield a _lot_ better results.

Actually, i could help in with the "Breaking an APK siege" chapter, since imho its one of a the few very very weak spots in their organizing thing.

Alb communication in BG1 sucks, not to mention the total lack of co-operation and teamwork.

Yesterday I watched 3 clerics run by the bodies of slain albion warriors and didn't rez them. Nope, they just made straight for the CK heedless to the cries of people with more common sense.

We have a critical shortage of healers in Bg1, but this really did take the proverbial. I left Thid in disgust shortly afterwards and returned to the marginally more sane world of Bg3 and the wonderful Mr Floppy & Friends.

 

[Bejeezus]

I popped into bg1 for a bit last night with my very first, gimped 2h pally. The level of organisation is even worse than I remembered it being. A ranger + ns duo were picking off Albs as they left ATK, this was going on for at least the half hour I was there but despite several calls nobody paid the slightest bit of attention. Upon the query, 'Where is everybody?', the sweetest response floated back 'All camping MTK'. Wonderful.

instead of everyone roaming around together in one big fat alb-doggy-style zerg?

 

[Bejeezus]

Lack of communication is exactly what leads to the Alb bg zerg. Someone spots a single enemy and the next thing you know half the troops are charging off despite some of the more patient ones yelling 'Stay here you idiots!'

But of course, off the little zerglings go one by one and the next thing you know the avalanche is in motion.

Maybe it's not so much a lack of communcation as a lack of hearing.

 

[calaen]

I dont even think its the lack of motivation or hearing.

The majority of chars running in alb (thidranki) at the moment are infils and scouts.

People just like to have fun which in thidranki is just running around. Also as I have said in other posts it sucks when albs have ck, I would much rather hibs or mids have atleast then they can get to the ck from the tk without getting camped.

Fair play to the hibs over the weekend for the show of numbers in defending the keep from us and the mids, also for not coming and camping ck. You would think after watching the fact that when we dont have ck we all go there looking for action that when we actually have it we would do the same thing and wait at ck.

Also in defence of the clerics alot of the ressers that come to Thid prolly get so sick of ress requests from solo's than anything else. My ownly solution is this clerics and friars if specced are there to ress however they are not in thidranki or anyone to come rushing to every dead guys beck and call, if you want a ress get in a grp with a cleric, or ask nicely most of the requests at the weekend to the clerics where more like demands with no thanks involved, when they did not get a ress it changed to something along the lines of F****g clerics f*****g pile of S**t. Just a word of advice this aint gonna get you a ress either.

Most of the rez requests I saw started out nice, but after a few minutes of asking with no response people understandably got upset.

I take less umbridge at the lack of rezzing and more at the total lack of responses from the rezzers. Maybe they have good reasons for not rezzing, but if they choose not to give even a token response to those asking then they are just rude. End of story.

I've had plenty of requests for rezzes in both Bg3 and elsewhere and I try not to let anyone down, regardless of the circumstances.

Hats off to Schakademus though, a Friar who was doing a sterling job in Thid rezzing people.

 

[Gadd]

yes your lack of communitcation is pretty bad, i can tell when me and an sb friend wait outside atk i lure people out my sb friend smacks em one and we were able to do this multiple times over multiple ports, only gave up when my sb friend had to leave.

that and i also think all the /rude /laugh etc spam on dead guys is unneccasary, i mean come on, not like your all 10yrs old, whenever i beat someone in a fight its always with a /bow afterward. but get ganked by a fg of albs using no skill what so ever literally run you over and /laugh spam you.

 

[sendraks]

Not everyone does the /rude /laugh stuff, just a few bad eggs who give the rest a bad name.

I recall a few middies in Bg3 who were overly fond on insulting their victims, when a lone warrior would get ganked by a fg. Or the sad cases who'd spa, /yell over and over again.

Only realm I've not seen indulge in this behaviour yet is Hibernia.

Yeah, that's pretty bad...I was in BG3 with my little Zerk last night (GGs to Albs and Hibs there BTW, at least until it turned into Alb BG Zerg time yet again) and even though we had 2 groups, we were all in the same cg.
Worked pretty nicely 'cos we listened to each other and used tactics, rather than just charging in - whcih we couldnt' do anyway as we were, of course, outnumbered.

 

[iceflower]

One thing I noted about the "everyone for themselves" behaviour is that even lvl 50 players that perform well in real rvr leaves all discipline at the pk when entering Thidranki. Add to that that a lot of players prefer to stay out of groups in order not to cap too fast and you get a rather unwieldy force. I think the reason is that most regard Thidranki as a playground where you can have some fun, you run around going for a few kills mostly playing solo even in groups and totally free from tactics etc.

A balanced group that teams up can cap Thidranki in a few evenings in such an environment But not in pick up groups where some even dont know about the simple art of roaming :-D

If you ress every dead stealther/soloer you will spend all your time in bg ressing and resting for mana.. so tell me. what is the fun with that?

oh nos. I forgot. The sole purpose of bards/druids/sms/clerics/friars/healers/shamans/wardens/etc is to just ress everyone else whenever they died.

Get in a group with a healer or ask nicely and be prepared to wait awhile. It might just be so that youre the 5th player to ask for a ress due to a large battle and ressers dont have infinite pow?!?.. So be prepared to wait awhile for both answers and eventually a ress.

Perhaps the resser in question is in the middle of a fight or something else important and cant answer 10000x tells a minute concerning resses and still function in the group/situation he/she is in.

rude players get on /ignore at once from me at least

I spend half my time using my /laugh macro at stealthers when they miss PA on my lil mentalist and then try to tank me down..../qc stun, dot, dot, /laugh/point/wave/kiss....i see nothing wrong with that

You don't think maybe they were out of mana and heading somewhere safe to rest up?
When I'm playing my ns I always love the rezzers who are daft enough to sit beside a corpse they are about to rez. I think possibly it is them who had more common sense than you.
