You are calling someone who is not even playing a Cabalist a "retard" when you, yourself, who has a Cabalist as their self-proclaimed main, does not know that the Mage baseline LT is 2.5 second cast (aka fastest cast DD in the game), exactly the same cast time as the Body spec LT?

Oh, and here is your clue, now go do your homework and learn your class properly.

hate to burst your bubble but Mythic already stated that the delve times are NOT the actual cast times.. time it yourself.. unbuffed its 3s.. not 2.5... ofc its possible to speed up using buffs and ra's and other stuff but unbuffed its 3secs.. mythic also stated that they left in the delve times cos they couldnt be arsed to remove them and that they dont reflect the actual cast times.
if you dont believe me go look it up on a grab bag, its there.

1st attempt, 51 ALbs attack RK, constant LDing after the 1st door was down, we couldnt even kill guards properly because we had to be "out-of combat". Hibbs weren't doing much from inside the Relic keep. Then siezed the opportunity to attack when we retreated and were left with literally 25ish albs not LD. Surprise suprise 2fg+ MIdds hit us in back at exact moment.

2nd attempt, 104 Albs attack RK, take door 2 to about 6%, and this Time mass LDage caused our numbers to dwindle by half, Hibbs sieze the opportunity to attack, Surprise suprise 2fg+ MIdds hit us in back at exact moment.

At no point in the whole evening did I see any heroics from Hibernia, except for a glimpse when some Luris Jumped and PB bombed us at door1 :D causing the Mass LD in attempt 2.

1. Shrooms were not a problem.
2. We did not zerg the RK, it was a small force in the first strike.
3. Hibernia Realm defenxe is a joke.

Couldn't give a rats ass what any hibb doofus comes to say, I was there, I know what I saw. But you guys acting like we got pwned coz of Crap Server, is rly v funny, when the truth is you didn't do shit to defend realm, and were under house arrest hiding in RK from the second we arrived, the only albs dieing were to Guards or loggin back in from LD.

Wether you liek it or not, Albion owns this server. IF it wasnt for the crap servers, we would come and take the relics tonight and every night.

you can say all you want but when i was playing my sorc i sure noticed the difference in the lvl 50 base body nuke and other base spells that said to have 3.0 sec the body nuke speed is insanely fast tbh

There is an easy solution to realm population balance, Mythic could introduce basic AI Bots to play some of the Hib classes, such as Animist. I'm sure even the most basic of programs can handle what is required:

/groundset <range>
/spam shrooms until out of power

Says the shroom spammer... and Horlely, I've certainly seen your a few times in rather large groups, so don't come Mr Innocent when it comes to zerging. :)
Actually Hibs certainly knew how to use numbers to their advantage in HW earlier, when after being beaten in a pretty fair fight they came back with 2fg to beat all seven or so Albs in HW... including our little group of three (two clerics and a sorc, naturally - nothing but the best line-ups for us!). :)


I ever told here i dont join mg camping whit 2 fg or 3?NO
And i still can(and join) run in a roaming fg , even solo whent its need.
But its so typical scool is out and there the are headless albs on amg emain whit 6fg and more.
About HW yes when you win its a fear fight :twak: but when you loss a fight you guys try find something to blame it even on this last RR.

Shrooms!!!So? its a part of the animist class
You tell to stealhers dont go stealth we cant see you? or to a cabalist dont use your pets?etc etc.
When you run headless in a shroom zone ofc you can die.
I seen most of times that mids can handel the shrooms and use good tactics.
What i cant tell form albs , the just uber in whine of other realms classes on forums(same on the VN boards) so the will be nerfed.
So the dont need work on tactics against a other classes.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

p.s even when the server dint crash we will killed you :)
sry for my bad english

so we should just let you have relics cause you are more then us?

realm impopulation is as lame in tactics as shrooms, imo.

No m8 I disagree, the bigger army usual wins, thats just logic. Im not saying dont use shrooms, what I am saying is that its a bit stupid that mythic have basically given pet spammers of both realms the ability to instantly end a relic raid by spamming and spamming and spamming till the server dies.... its overpowered in the way that it cant be counter acted.

Zergs can be counter acted, fewer groups defending relics against a zerg can hold the zerg back long enough for re-inforcements to show... or even with some good team play kill the zerg.

Its not even like it was a massive zerg last night, truth be told there wasnt that many of us compared to some other rr's, and it wasnt that laggy cept for the occassional weird server lag ever since GoA did their "maintenance" before Gorre NF Beta came up. Weird server lag got worse...maybe cos of shrooms?

50% of the alb force disappears, I was left aoeing the doors with few of us around me, then sneaky elf got me gratz enjoy my rps ;) then mass LD again took me out.

Sucky server sucks tbh, wouldve enjoyed that battle if we won relics or not.

Wow. I have to applaud you. Even in the face of all evidence, you persist. Now read my lips: The Mage baseline LT is 2.5 second cast. You obviously are clueless.

As for the delve times not being actual cast times--obviously, since the actual cast time is computed based on your dexterity above 60 (or something similar), MotArt, and ToA cast speed bonus. You will actually have to work hard to cast as slow as the delve casting time (i.e. it's not enough to be unbuffed).

So, please, I beg of you, look up the grab bag which contradicts what I am saying, or better yet, show me logs of your 3.0 second cast time. For myself, having played with my 2.5 second cast time ever since I rolled my Cabalist back in the day, this is highly amusing.

And to Draylor: Yeah, what about my sig? :p What does it look like?

Actually we had this funny incident in HW the other day when we were trying to go defend Beno, which was claimed by Blood Eagles (Mid-guild) at that moment. 3 fg Mids charged through the open first door to face the 1 fg albs that were bashing the doors only to find... nothing, half the mids and ALL albs LDed. And we're talking about aproxiamately 35 people in the same zone at the same time.
But yes, it is sad to see the servers can't handle those numbers and I'm honestly sorry for Albion since you should be able to use full force in this game. Don't think you'd win just because of that, though ;)

I think Albs deserve some easy mode fun also once in a while Draylor.
So let those people be :)

So, let me get this straight: You're not even RR5 on any of your chars, you gained 5k RPs last week, and you are talking about pwning Albs? All right, just checking.

And when did you get active again on Prydwen, Mr Sneaky? I thought it was no more daoc 4j00! :)

Nope, I call it a fair fight when it's between roughly the same numbers and lasts for a good five minutes, only ending when some lickle Middies hit the Hibs from behind. That's a good fight for everyone there, Mr OneButtonMustWinAtAllCosts.

Mind you I did find it amusing when a bunch of Hibs were chasing after a single sorc who was being chain healed by two (completely uninterrupted) clerics. That's entertainment!

And as for you... you zerg like everyone else when it suits you. And if you had the nads to admit it, I might even think you're wise beyond your years, my son.

There's been some weird bad lag happening of late, which I think is actually network rather than server related - either Goa's network architecture is creeping, or some routers somewhere close to them are having fits.

The lag and ld problem seems to have occurred since opentransit did some maintenance a few weeks back now.

I reckon they hit the "Annoy people living outside of france" button in support of their Fisherman/Truckers/<insert any other french trade that goes on strike regularly>

As I said earlier it was a good effort by albs and fun for all etc but feel I should clear something up.

I was inside on walls during both attempts and when door was @ 5% I can assure you shroom numbers in the cy were minimal. There wasnt a huge number of animists inside dagda and tbh hibs were a bit disorganised and shroom spamming was low. I know you only have my word for this but I dont bother with the usual kiddie repartee on these boards and have no reason to lie.

If servers cant handle 80 albs and 80 hibs in collory then I fear for NF.

Well, that "rr" was kinda interesting last night. After getting bored of no action in emain we took keep after keep waiting for hibs to come out. In the end, we were thaaaat bored we even took a swing at the relic keep. It was funny till lds started and it is strange with so little people around from both sides (I blame theurgist and animists pets! Imagine if mids had a pet spamming class too!!). I don't think we expected to get relics or anything (we would have used rams for all this process if it was serious!) but just trying to have fun...:D

Now, I wonder how server is going to handle NF if it can't handle so low numbers of people!! :mad:

was a fun fight sadly mas ld's (ld'ed 6 times while defending dagda) all over crappy server

and so did most of the defenders inside also
so when few of us made it back and saw albs had ld'ed also ofc we charged you guy's twice over in front and why not you would of done same to hibs :)


Darksadness said:
Aye we still need 3 FG albs to kill 1 hib... so i guess its fair to have some more numbers... o welll... balance the realms... maybe its fair that way... when in 2 nukes 1 hib kill 1fga. In that time, 2 nukes, we dont have even time to hit fh key. and then you say haaa albs have the long range mezzz DHOOO... why you want a castable mezz when you cant use it moving...

uhm??? maybe range of it?? and btw we do have casteble mezz :p and it used more than insta one

Bad luck on the raid :( good to see people still trying even after all the times there's been an LD/zone crash when RR.

To all the hibs who thought it was a good attempt, and admit so :worthy:

To the person bitching about sorc/cabby lifetap as the 'fastest dd in the game'

Spiritmaster Extinguish Lifeforce (spec), Valewalker Cycle of Death (level 45), Animist Cycle of Death (level 45).... maybe missed some.

You could at least have called it 'fastest baseline level 50 castable damage spell' :fluffle:

Guys all stop this wtf pwn i got u got me got shit....


It was a great zerg by alb, a great defence by hibs and a great rear entry by mids....

What really won was the crap servers that are used by GOA to power this game. Maybe they need to invest some money in new servers (i once saw a post that they run their servers with 2gb ram!)

I reckon that the mids were waiting for the 2nd gate to come down and alb / hib to engage, then they were gonna come and own us all....

Great fun spoilt by GOA - will they respond??? cos NF is gonna bring these problems on a larger scale.

i think mids where up to same sadly hibs also did kill of the mids when we charged out in very disorganised way couse of the LD's most people in the charge wasent grouped ;)

but still made albs try and run of into the waiting mids and hibs didnt stop at the albs but wiped mids also

and hibs didnt gather any real big number until albs came back for 2nd atempt
before that only the usual few hibs that cared for the greater good of hib was out at dagda doing what they could

so lets end the lame youre more over powered than me crap was good fight sadly server couldnt take it

to be continued if ever goa gets some decent servers and opentrasit fixes the huge lag they running with of late

havent read all posts =)
its nice to see albs whining to hibs and hibs whining to albs =)
yes indeed ... albs use the power of numbers...
but will give u 2 things..
1 the fga vs fgh fights....that actually albions w/o relics can win u..
2 see the catacombs....goa gives 2 new classes...cause of the numbers
of albions...albions miss on some petspaming classes u have...so they have to
use the thing they have...u have the profit of clases...we have the power
of zerg tbh ... if u think that u r so strong...let us bring 4 fgs vs 4 fgs of yours =)
i think that u r afraid to stay and defend relic keep w/o animists though =)

How did our arses get kicked? Oh yeah damn you zerged what was left of the alb force after 2 mass ld's, grats, that takes some l33t skills.

Me? For once Id like to have one of those big huge epic battles, win or lose, rather than the server dyin everytime the opportunity to have em arises.

Dont you listen? We had mass ld´s to you numb nut.. When a zone gets unstable its not like all the albie newbs ld´s and all the hibs stay in game.. Try using your brain a little more .. might be good for ya mate..
