[bg1] Hibs need ck to play ? =)

[snox]

I notised that when we hibs have ck there is around 2-3 fg minimum most off the time in thid..


but when we dont there is not many hibs there =) i do get alot off pm's when in thid (DO we got the keep) and keep wondering,

Do u have to have CK to have fun in thid ? =)

Its not that i like zerging ..but its more fun when u can keep the nummbers at the same lvl as Albs/mids .. today there was alot mids and albs in Thid they looked like they hade som fun fights =) but where are all the hibs ?=)

Might say that i dont know if i am correct here but its the way it seems ,, =) not a flame this just need to know if u think it is this way to and if u do =) why ? =)

 

[old.chipper]

no u are correct i seen it when i entered thid alb had ck and most hibs i saw on was 17 when we where taking keep it hit 57 and after that it was around 24 hibs constant dunno why maybe ppl just prefer rvr with the ck but there always seems to be more ppl dependin on the realm which owns the keep

Just that hibs are cowards and without the keep to fall back to and hide they stay away....

DAmned straight Hibbies only go to thid in large numbers when we have the keep.....but then again so do all the other realms.

When we owned the keep there weren't that many albs about until the tried to take the keep when I saw about 1-2fgs. Night after the keep went into alb hands however, we all of a sudden see about 25 albs + dozens of pets camping Middie PK .....coincidence? I think not. In my opinion it's simply a case of having the enemy come to you and having a "safe" base of operations to work from....Makes it more likley you'll survive long enough to farm afew RPs and knock your kill score up abit.

hmmmm....OR, I've just thought of another perspective....

It might just be that when you hold the centre keep you survive longer and so you stay longer which means when more people log on and see there are afew peeps in Thid they think "What the hell, I think I'll go to thid for abit" and so they add to the number of people there until there are the afore mentioned 25 strong "Zerg".......The two realms that don't hold the keep however go to Thid and get Zerged afew times and then think "Forget that for a game of soldiers" and so either log or go kill somthing else and so when new peeps log on they do a /who thid, and see very few people there so don't bother going or go there and just REPLACE the peeps who were originally there and so you end up with loads of peeps from the realm holding the keep and about 1 possibly 2 groups from each of the other realms. Apart obviously when you decide to try take the keep in which case it's not just afew people filtering into Thid but a concerted effort to recruit realm mates to help.


.......NAH!

not allways, mid's population increases, but last time i was there there were far more albs than mids when they had the CK

 

[Faeldawn]

Seems to be the trend, only time a realm that doesnt own the keep comes to thid in great numbers, they are raiding.

Fact is that most (if not all) BG characters now have lvl 50(ish) mains, and running around thid for hours isnt really very productive, only really fun when either taking or defending the keep (or the keep island).

Notable exception is assassins, BG is always full of /anon assassins

My guess is Bonedancers supspec that gives instant lifedrain 4 sec timer. but that is not a win button. Just ppl that cant solo as they did before and only whines insteed of learn how to kill the new class/race. only bad losers whine about a class/race insteed of looking at there own realms new class/race that pwns.

Necro own, animist own and so does bonedancer.

true, so true Letterbox ^^

Mate, u look a bit lost, bonedancers are mid chars, not alb.
( BDs instats are 4sec, and it is only lifetap and some "i never use" debuffs that are instant spells. )

Necro ( alb ) has 3sec timer on there lifetap, and almost all
there spells are instant, who needs a nerf ? and u cant kill em without killing the pet first... way to über.

And animist (HIB) has AE über dmg spelll that are instant 3sec timer. + baseline lifetap.

so stop your "not going anywhere" whine.

You want to know how to kill a bonedancer easy ? i give you i tip, u need to oneshot or stun on the first strike.

( right answer: BACKSTABB = stun = dead BD ).

we agree on sumat then necro are uber especially with the los thing which they seem to abuse alot but fair enuff hibs have had it for ages why shouldnt albs enjoy using it

this was never a whine just pointed out a few home truths yes i got reaver mixed up with savage it happens there new classes

i think a couple of the new classes are overpowered tis all if u dont agree u dont agree fair enuff. this is not a whine its a oberservation i have not come on here screaming for these classes to be nerfed and calling them all lame

"Hiding your pet inside a bridge pillar, wall or similar solid object that will block line of sight and make you almost unkillable, is considered an exploit. In general your pet is allowed to go the same places as the players are allowed to go. We had issues with people hiding in walls or bridges and killing without chance of retaliation in the past and this exploit is similar. If you notice players using this kind of exploits, take a couple seconds to write down the names, date and place and, once you are done playing, report it via RightNow, our customer support tool."

 

[aucard]

First one to go down is Frera ( Necro ) for hiding your pet inside a bridge pillar@ MB-BG1. Bye Bye ^^

 

[ricky_latino]

eh, you can only controll where a pet walks to a sertain extent

seeing as the los for pets/mobs are not implented yet, how can it be a bug exploit? Its not a bug, its just not coded to have los

If someone gets banned for that GAO better have a lawyer

 

[old.chipper]

i think theres a difference between someone setting pet on u and u go run away over the ridge out of sight but get nuked again player has no control over that really and i doubt they would recall pet cos u vanished however its alot different hiding your pet in a pillar where u cant attack it

I did, but that was not my point. I wasnt asking for myself as much as for other people reading this.

Two things about quotes :-

a). If your gonna quote, tell people where its from.

b). If your gonna quote, quote in full. The statement printed here misses out the first paragraph which explains when it is ok to hide stuff.



From the camelot herald news 28/2/03, This sentance was 'snipped' from the previous quote :-

'Hiding your pet in a tree, where it cannot be seen, but can be targetted with F8, clicked on with the mouse and where the line of sight isn't obscured, is not considered an exploit. '

 

[Tasans]

'Hiding your pet in a tree, where it cannot be seen, but can be targetted with F8, clicked on with the mouse and where the line of sight isn't obscured, is not considered an exploit. '

Wait that means that hiding the pet inside the keep is an exploit?
It cannot be targetted with F8 and click doesnt work through walls. So about all the bg necros are exploiters now yes?

but if assasins had the climb wall ability they could get in and click on them, so your argument is not valid im afraid
