Albion RP slags

k, i've been around DAoC since the release of the game and i've noticed a change or two.
Emain has always been the zerg area, albion has always had more then Mid & Hib.
With the release of SI and the holl's we got a flood of new players, most of which went to Albion. its now been a few months and these new people now have one or two level 50 char's. I've been going RvR alot over the last two weeks to get my shaman some RA's and every day of it emain was zerged by 3 - 5 fg of Albions. Each day Midgard couldnt get close to 4 fg, it was mainly two or three if lucky, same went got Hibernia.

Due to the zergs the groups i was with didnt even get more then 4 kills on most attacks due to being totally outnumberd.
two nights ago i got into one of the best RvR group's i've been in so far, we got twatted by zergs so we chose to go to Odins wish is ment to be the "zerg free" RvR area. we ran into one or two hibs, killed'em, ran into half a group of albs, killed'em.

I thougt this is much better, hope we run into another fg, which we did, had a long fight with 1fg of hibs, we just about won, rezzed up and went off again, then boom, hit by 4 fg of albions.
Went right back to emain, 4fg+ there, I remember the time when mids could camp the atk in emain, make brill ambushes (at that time i was an alb myself so i was used to gettin twatted by mids)

Now no tactics can be used due to the sheer numbers of the albs.

The fun is going from RvR, its being ruined. Something has to be done about this and its possibly one of the hardest and biggest problems in DAoC to fix.

Maybe they could make RvR zones for 16 people only, like a server on port, and leave emain and odins for anyone who wants to zerg. Im not complaining about this im just tellin you lot what i've noticed over the last 5 months, do u reckon there is a soulution to this or should we fuck off to WoW and SWG ?

AoE mezz also rules battles to much, it needs a major nerf or taken out of RvR imo.

Sorry to burst your bubble Repent, but Mids are zerging like the best of them.
Mythic should just make interesting rvr areas, which is what they are currently doing. Shame GoA will have to translate it for all those French and German people who are too lazy to learn English, making us wait longer :(

Never said it didn't, but then bolt range mez isn't on a timer is it? Well, unless you count the 30 seconds between quick casts.

Complaining about albion zergs when you're a mid is useless because i've seen mids zerg 100's of times in Emain... Mids camp AMG, albs camp MMG, mids camp ATK, albs camp MTK.... it's just very repetative and shouldn't be, considering RvR basis is around keep takes and relic raids, RP is a major amount of RvR but even Mythic don't like the zerg vs zerg vs zerg method.

granted, but you can pretty much garantee that a mid grp has at least one of it's insta ae cc spells up every time you meet it.

That is ofcourse assuming the group has a healer...

...and ofcourse your assuming that healer is pac/mend, or a hybrid of some sort. with atleast 38 pac for the first AE insta. Not Aug/mend, Mend/Aug, etc, etc...


...Unless your counting the Skald ST insta mez :)

Abso-fucking-lutley.

I've lost track of the times RvR has become "run to hotspot, get mezzed by casters, die pointlessly" over and over again to the pointy where RvR has become something I endure so as to get realm skill points and nothing more.

And don't say "Purge" - use Purge, lose it for next 30 minutes, get mezzed again 5 seconds later anyway. AoE mezz needs serious nerfing.

How about I say determination 4, purge and get some fecking resist buffs?
If you're still playing dark age of CCalot with your warrior then you really have only yourself to blame.

+mezz reduction chant for the group:). And unless sorceror is playing speed (which imo he shouldnt), albs will always have this chant if the sorc specced mind.

Group Mez. Length Red. Chant Type: Energy Range: 2000
Lv. Spell Name: Value Cast Targ. Lasts
29 Solidarity of Mind -5% len. 4 sec. Group 10 sec.
39 Unity of Mind -10% len. 4 sec. Group 10 sec.
49 Brotherhood of the Mind -15% len. 4 sec. Group 10 sec.


edit: and aussie you are really picky :p. As normal resists also descrease mezz duration. So it is sort of a resist buff for mezzes :p.

It's well known that 1FG Albs have no chance vs 1FG Hibs/Mids (unless they are lucky, or playing n00bs)

Alb just has abilities spread over too many chars :/
