20-24 Excellent Action

[old.¥ØÐÄ]

yea was good fun again tonight . there was a time in 25-29 bg when mid zerg was in a face of with alb army . and myself and 3 others left the rest of the alb army and went looking for inc mid reiforcements . we musta killed 15-20 mids/hibs easy that were coming in small groups from there tk's .


we did eventually die when we got split and i "cleric" got killed by about 5-6 mids 1 stealthed "bard" and 5 stealthers ns's and snipers . so i had to /release and go back to 20-24 bg with scout and kill LOADS of mids always fun to spot a enemy stealther from miles away even the assasins mostly have bad stealth . also funy whe the tanks get sniped and they running in circles looking for me and not thinking of engage

the bg keep doors are way too hard ... It's almost impossible to get the keep without rams, and who has rams at lvl 20-24 We are trying for about 40 minutes to take Thidranki Faste now, and the door is still at 95% hp. Maybe he is bugged or something, but this isn't normal...

Umm.. while the Albs and Hibs were farting about on the bridges the other night, the Wolverines upgraded both keep doors on Thidranki. We'd like to thank Both Albion and Hibernia for allowing our logistical exercise to go unhindered..thanks guys.
The Doors were originally level1 btw.

Y can keep that piece of poop also, i dont do nothing with it =)


Just show your head on the wall hole, i suck u dry =)

Well I think tonight will probably be my last night in the 20-24 BG
i'm near level 3 ... so unless I dedicate myself to sneak up on mids and hibs that dont give realm pts...i will have to level at least until 26 or 27 (and I'm not in the mood to do that)

Yesterday was a great night, I logged in the BG at about 21:30
and only got killed near midnight

The hibs were all out of ideas...they even gathered some luriken scouts around their recently raised or bruised friends to protect them, but still I was able to whack them =)

Thanks to all the mids and hibs (and of course albs), that are making the 20-24 BG one of the best places to RvR


PS: I love this char
PPS: And yes Fin your pet rules hehehe

I have alts in both the 20-24 and 25-29 BGs.

The 25-29 is at least as good as the 20-24 so when u get 2 high I'd lvl up to 27/8 and get into the 25-29

I'm not looking forward to RR1 Lvl6 though

 

[Madonion Slicer]

Just to clear somthing up you can still port over when you reach L1 R3, as i did last night very worried but i still ported over so i can assume i will be able to til R4.

Even the Merchant that sells the necklaces says 20-24 And R1 L3 or Below.

 

[naite]

Good =)

I was getting worried, since I like the 20-24 BG

Thanks for killing half the fun of playing in the 20-24 BG

 

[old.Demerzel]

Any alb casters pissed at my ranger Demer yet? ben harassing you good on the alb bridge.

Ive also had some stealth duels with infiltrators. Great fun

 

[old.Mick]

had great fun tonight there, quite a few hibs on the bridge, got wiped by mids a few times but they let us get ressed and we kept having another bash. then the albs finally turned up and wiped us all out as the mids stood in keep and laughed. then we all kind of gave up and went to xp

 

[old.FIN]

Bah

Well some of the Mids r just stupid noobs that do such a thing.

They think they clever but they just keep boiling waater of their keeps in there, well let them boil it =) it will burn soon =)


There is great fun, and its fun 2 c when mids casters just BOOM BOOM me =)


But just before i went sleep we went there as last time, in gorup of 3 casters, lol, that was hilarious =)

Mids and Hibs, try to look to your sides also, roflmao


And of course i died after when couple of mids stayed there as voice to others, but hey, time to sleep sometimes =)


Well lvl 22, and been kicking some buts there, killed more than died =) a lot more =)

And i really dont know the kill count for sure, but its gotta be close 100 ...Luckily u have been dieng resently , but u still attack, i dont rezz kill ( last time some1 treid to take 1 just rezzed, i said leave him, so he can tsoon fight, then he called 20 mids , and boom boom, well try to be kind also, if Im kind to u , try not call help becuase we didnt kill u, lol ), so i dont get points, so i can teleport when i do some XP =) ...i wanna c how im doing there at lvl 24 =)

Well nn all, Fin goes to play with his Wet Willy and then to sleep

What? You're complaining becase we did something that is perfectly acceptable?

Did you ever think that people might enjoy the challenge of learning what all the RvR commands are for before actually going and using them "for real" in the frontiers?

This isn't killing half the fun, it's just making it more of a challenge for you guys to take the keep in Thidranki. Use your initiative!

This is the level 20-24 BG m8, not many non twink players are going to have any chance of useing seige equipmwnt, I seriously doubt that any of the players involved in upgrading the doors were peoples main character?. I believe that Mythic are looking into limiting the door strengths in the lower BG to stop this happening. The BG is still good fun, but....

Thats where your wrong. Several of our guild (and its a very very small guild) have never experienced rvr in any form. They are the Main characters. You wont see expensive paints jobs and flaming weapons in our lot, unlike alot of players there. We got organised and all chipped in to help, why dont you lot do the same? Its called Teamwork.

here's a tip, before you go off on one about people being twinks and ruining the game - how about you spend 3 months preparing for the BGs? how about you pay attention to your tradeskills, get some gold together and BUY the parts for a siege ram?

I can't believe the fact that we did something perfectly reasonable has evolved into the entire guild being labelled as twinks. The highest-level character I have is THIS character. I haven't been above level 24 since Beta, and I'll be DAMNED if I sit back and take your insults and name calling without giving you some idea in return.

The Wolverines were all originally members of a very well-known Guild. Ever heard of Phoenix Legion?

When we decided that we'd come to Midgard on another server and get ready for the battlegrounds in the next patch, we had no idea that the delay would be so long. So we parked all our main characters at level 24 and got on with other things. In a couple of our cases, this was tradeskilling, others have been through several different alts to try and find something worth playing. OK, so we have 2 alts in the guild that are above level 24 - big deal. Doesn't mean we use them to twink ourselves.

hell, i'm not even wearing Sylvan cloth yet. Can't afford to.

So go ahead, flame me, call me a twink, I'll sit here secure in the knowledge that it's you, not I, that is refusing to play the game the way it was designed - as a team. Teamwork is a big aspect of RvR. don't try and tell me it's not.

Here's another tip, if you're so pissed about the doors. Go to Cornwall or wherever and ask to BUY the parts for a siege ram. I don't mind telling you this, because I know for a fact that I can do the same in Midgard. so if we lose the keep, we can still take it back. Just requires a little teamwork.

 

[old.¥ØÐÄ]

its nothin to do with upgrading doors . they are to hard to bust in allthe bgs .

if you read through various threads about bgsyou will see people from all bgs lvls say that the doors are to tough.

ive been on keep raids in the 20-24 and 25-29bg and both times we had a good size army bashing the door with very little resistance leaving us free to bash hell out of the door for quiet some time. and we barely scratched the door , by that i mean it wasnt even dmged 5% ,,


btw is grwmstorm or summin like that a dwarf in your guild ? if so i got a nice screenshot of him using that bug when u climb on top of buildings that cant be accessed any other way without using the bug , and from that vantage point using his spells on the albs below . :sleeping: :sleeping:

Not condoning bug use/abuse, but it's not as if this is a major catastrophe. You have very little protection up there, and you gain no real advantage. The range on a bolt or AE or whatever is the same as the range on an arrow - less, in fact, than some bows.

But that's besides the point. The point is, it's all good fun, in the BG's, and doing something like upgrading the keep doors isn't going to change that. You just have to use some different tactics, that's all.

Besides, you make a great target no matter where I'm standing , and I'm sure I do too!

Firstly, spookily, I'm not pyschic, we upgraded as soon as we had chance, not knowing that doors (even lvl1) are too tough. I dont regret it anyway. Go get a Ram.

Secondly, yup, I managed to get on the roof. At first I thought, cool, nice view, no LOS issues, then quickly found out i'm an instant pincushion, and all the ranged attacks go through the roof anyway, so after that first night (and several quick deaths), I dont go up there, safer to stand on the walls and drop outta sight.

As it is suggested to be a bug, feel free to report me using Rightnow if you feel that strongly about it.

Btw that spot is no worse than the very crowded pillars on the bridges where all the archers stand on top, where its impossible melee them.


EDIT: Can I see the piccy please? no point in depriving the masses of the best looking dwarf in midgard

 

[old.m0000]

ceixava its not our fault you gimped ur char

my leve 24 scout has 7 shield (for engage, can you say roxxor?), 10 thrust (never used rvr) 24 +4 (28) longbow and 19 +5 (24) stealth. 24 stealth with items means no one ever sees me in bgs except infil classes with detect hidden.

Oh and to u middies, sorry about spamming ur screens will all my kills, i guess its hard enuff me 1 shotting most of u and u dont need the constant "was killed by cows, was killed by cows, was killed by cows" reminders


Hmm i should update my sig,
for those who dont know
Cows GoMoo is my level 24 scout bg plaything

 

[old.m0000]

arrg just got killed for the 2nd time in 20-24 (
some noob hibs took advantage of me being on 3/4 hp and no end with a keep archer hitting me

ah well i guess its the only way hib tanks can get a kill, by killing 2v1 on a scout running after a orange con npc archer has whacked them twice

all i can say is, at least mids have balls

 

[old.Eeek]

OK, took your advice, we brought a couple of rams and got one door down and half way through the second before getting wiped out, took damn ages though.

The level 1 doors are much easier btw, we got one down to 75% the other day with just a few people banging on it, only took a few minutes.

 

[Breni]

But wasn't it more satisfying that way?

 

[old.Eeek]

Actually, the funny thing about the other day when you upgraded the doors was that I was yelling at people to stop killing Hibs and get the doors, I got the reply - why bother, we would only have to defend it

I like the idea of the keep changing hands alot, gives everyone a chance to experience it all before they get too many RPs and get kicked out the BG

Some of you mids must be damn close to the limit - whatever it is..

 

[old.Kladen]

nice RvR going in thidranki at the mo. 2 albion seiges and 1st one only had me defending while everyone died and i took you albions ram hehehe. i bet you hate me now but its good fun.

also wolverines i know its nothing wrong with upgrading the doors but its less fun for us if we do coz its far to easy as it is. i hope no one upgrades em in the future as newbies rarely have nice ironwood rams.

where are the bloody hibbies! i hate u elves all of u elves! gahhh! i want to smash your small twig bodys with my dwarven hammer!

 

[Hircine]

Some of you mids must be damn close to the limit - whatever it is..

Im afraid thats true, reached limit yesterday, so no more fun for me.

 

[old.m0000]

all i can say is if mids didint have the keep guards to save their asses.....

IMO hibs and albs need to gang up on the mids here, to take the keep (even if hib get it, would be a nice change from these middies thinking they own thidranki just cuz they got the keep by killing a grey npc, and no one can take it cuz the doors are far too hard for level 24s

 

[old.m0000]

a few pics of fun in the bg
(only 2 atm, saving rest for a nice slideshow w/music)

1 2

 

[old.Kladen]

quit whinign please and albions did take it after us once then we got it back. npc guards arent that hard to handle if u have a army to siege the keep.

 

[old.m0000]

no the guards are piss, weve often killed them all off
just u cant take the doors for shit (20-24 bg)
mids will have that keep until theres a patch/change to degrade the keep door levels in bgs to something more apropriate.

 

[old.Kladen]

could u albions do me a favour and kill the middie PK campers at ur keep so we can get down to some nice fighting. just go round them or something and u dont always have to go to keep via the bridge. i want some fights!!! fellow midgardians campers are newbies and wont listen kill em for me and other people who want nice fights in thidranki
