so now its not feasible then? so why say u dont need a FG at the start of ur quote? You seem to be a bit lost

 

[old.shotgunstow]

Ok, you probably need a FG now, but in 1.36 patch as you say when there were few lvl 50s, you didn't need a FG. Anyone remember Teza the troll skald? Purple con, mostly

no thanks.... one is enough and from what Ive seen so far most albs here dont have a clue what there doing in rvr

of course there are zergs on prydwen too, and of course are there people whining about it
but most zergs are primetime and what most people call zerging there are actually like 3 fg albs/mids/hib meeting up cause they heard enemies were at that location. and then its organised groups
not like the emain zergs here with 3 fg albs running in one big group hardly wihtout any speed and organisisation

LOL

A couple of SoTL groups try to run alone occasionally but apart from that you will never find Albs in 1fg on Prydwen. That is why RP's are easy for Mid on that server.

Hibs don't show. Mids zerg emain. Albs zerg every zone incl DF.

Sums up Prydwen.

Easy to run solo when you con purp..especially under the old 'to-hit' rules meaning hardly anyone could even touch you.

rofl, u havent been to pryd for quite a while m8, there r enough albs who at least try roaming as 1FG and avoid zerging at any costs and some of em like PE do really well, believe me-_- and for whom rps are really easy on pryd are hibs if they bother to show up in emain, and NP has proven it.

Hmm...sorry, but I just don't believe you. Not unless I was dreaming the zergs in HW/Odins/Emain/DF.

Thing is, I know why they do it and I understand the group inbalances. Players don't just log in frustration when they get zerged. They also log in frustration when their 2fg gets wiped time after time by 1 fg. I don't mind the Albs zerging on Prydwen.

Seen it from both sides. I can even remember saying on /c once that I was starting to feel sorry for Albs on Prydwen. Even agreed to go PvE for a bit to give Albs the confidence to come back out again.

Things might have got abit better but the fact remains. Albs are easier to play against.

Soz, but its a total BS, if we r speaking of random/imbalanced/gimped grps then its no matter what realm it is, they will get wiped by an equal number of balanced/well organized enemies, and if we r speaking of balanced/well organized FG then albs are by far not the easiest to play against-_- And u r right, things have indeed got better and not just a bit better.

Take a perfectly balanced hib group, a perfectly balanced mid group, and a perfectly balanced(lol) alb group. Which one is the easiest to play against ?

Define "perfectly balanced" for each realm, pbaoe/ranged nukers/melee etc then Ill tell u pretty easy whos on top and whos at the bottom.

In what patch was it please? When there were like few lvl50s in each realm, and look at the realms now, at least 100 lvl50s logged in at prime time. And if u ask me I can hardly imagine em all going in emain solo, but can easily imagine em going as single FGs, and not as a horde of headless chickens, communicating with eachother if needed.

First port as a level 42 R1L2 noob Mid in a group ranging from 40-50

After first death visit trainer to spend the points for R2L3. Second death spend the points for R2L6

Never done that as an Alb...or did I just become more tactically aware when I decided to logon a Mid char

 

[sorusi]

albs on excal, zerg they have done it since day 1, they wont stop, most of them wont because they do not want to loose, and if they do not zerg they loose... so for them its either 0 rps in a fair fight, or 5rps per kill when they fight in zerg

alb has by FAR the best 1fg grp, with sos it can beat hibb grp anyday, hibbs have no chance to beat it, and vs midds, its allmost the same just that they have a bigger chance.

But either way a cg is essential in the fact that it spreads information around about the location of enemies, whether the people in it are working together or not.

no its not, its essential for zergers who want 4x2fgs to be at the same spot when they attack yep.

i bet the 5 groups you refere to is really 3-4 fg's ..

and there is a big chance that they dont have any sorc with em at all ..

1fg albs with no sorc vs hib/mid group with AE mezz will die if the hibs/mids know what game they are playing ..

90% of the albs do really want to do the 1fg vs 1fg fun .. but 99% of the time it is not possible .. becuase you lack the the class's (mostly sorc's) we need to make balanced groups ..

and there is no way to make up for it .. unless all albs was willing to have 3 lvl 50 each ..

(around 50% of HB got 2 lvl 50 chars to make groups with.. but we still have a very very hard time making good groups)

Filip minser of HB

start makeing sorc alts, start treating the sorcs correctly. then you might have sorcs excal/alb are the worst place in whole daoc to play sorc on...

Just albs won't take lowbies into groups.. if you're not 50, you're not RvR worthy according to albs..

True, actually.

With a sorc, a theurg, a mincer, two wizzies two paladins and two clerics, you can take out just about anyone

They gave up after like 1 week of RvR in alb ;>

 

[old.Filip]

excal/alb are the worst place in whole daoc to play sorc on...

we have had sorc's and did/do protect them as good as possible from the day HB startet to rvr on excalibur. With Taunter/Aikmore and later Huma as examples

i think the there is more reason's to the fact we have so few sorc's..

1 of em is that in the "perfect alb" there is fewer slammers that there is offensive tanks in a good mid..

i see lone casters/healers all the time in mid groups (allso good rvr guilds) and every sorc i group with get a personal slambot

this is the common response to the zerg which reduces potential rps for all
