FAO: Newbie Pride

[Sneo]

well said mitsu!!

coman, you're complaining about them only showing up in 2fg:s ??
well what's the point of going to emain with 1fg and get ganked by 30+ albs ?!!

nolby pride are serius gamers who are really good at whay they do; play daoc admit it, you're just jealous

 

[burglash]

stop arguing about this shit.. say one reason why u are doing this.. got nothing to do huh??? this forum is a WHINEforum...

 

[old.Finster]

i give you a piece to think on:

in a bored mood i scanned the excalibur herald and guild makeup of guilds on excalibur. there s hardly any albion guild that has an active lv50 sorceror and an active lv50 minstrel at their disposal. xanatea wouldn t even leave MTK without a skald in team.

tell you what: you re balkanized, a decent amount of good players spread over a huge number of guilds which don t matter, because they can t put the essentials of 1 FG together with every single member online. swallow your pride and found some guilds that work or cooperate with your fellow alb guild instead of pouring the acid and venom of envy over our najs server.

-thank you.

Finster, <Nolby Pride>

 

[old.Odysseus]

lame thread.
albs zerg, hibs zerg, mids zerg.
NP just has the ppl to make 2-3 FG consistently and kick everyones arse.
Envy is such a waste of mental capacity.

Instead of bitching, copy them.
FC does it, DK does it sometimes, I have seen several other guilds doing it.

I'm sorry Finster but that's just pure BS. We could all play divas and demand certain things out of a group, it's nothing bad to be a bit demanding at times but eventually playing Albion you will have to wake up and smell the coffee and realise that your own personal Sorc on a silver platter is a rare and appreciated experience.

As for guilds not having active L50 Sorc and Minstrels? Come on. Active is admittedly a definition in which we might disagree but you've probably just set a RP objective and judged activity by that.

HB, BF, FC, RG, DK, RD has it and that's very spontaneously and briefly (sorry to anyone left out).

There is one final thing as was it Gwari or Kate put so well, on Albion you need 5-6 classes to fill what I'd think of as vital when other realms get of with 3, this will mean that any extreme diva attitude will have you looking for members for a fair while.

albs do need to learn to group better, many times i was in a group with 0 sorc then id move groups and there would be 3 in another group. Like the hibs say they wont leave without a bard or two, mids wont leave without a healer/skald normally. Alb does have some class issues but the people issues are more to blame than the class.

 

[-Dreama-]

Ok, maybe it's just me and I soooo know I'm gonna get flamed for this but I think it's kinda cool that NP can get that many guildies to do the RvR trips with them. I wish my guild could pull togeather 3 fg every night for it. As it stands we usually only have 1 fg out and about in emain every night.

/ducks for cover under a flame resistant blanket to avoid being singed to death.

you make it sound so difficult to build the most effective rvr groups. its what hibs and mids do every day.

Well i would put that Chipper's thread here, well part of it..

Quote:
im sick of the same shit lets go emain and zerg (TAKE NOT im not on about ewveryone here) or the oh its only 2 keeps it dont matter lets go emain. or the but im so close to lvl ill go when i ding ( 2 bubs l8r) or itll all be over by the time we get there so lets just stay here, or yeah but if i leave DF itll be closed
/end

 

[old.Verata]

How exactly is NP running around in 2FG lame? It's not their fault if 30 mindless sheep follow them around Emain hoping to pick up the scraps that they leave behind. They consistently put together balanced groups made up of people who know each other and play well together and because of this, let's face it, they're owning atm.

Instead of posting a pathetic little whine here, why not spend that time coming up with a way to beat them. They're playing the game well and you're getting your asses handed to you on a daily basis. I'm no Nolby groupie, but this whole thread reeks of jealousy.

And Wildfire, seeing as you appear to be something of an expert, please could you lay down some ground rules on RvRing. I'm particularly interested, as I'm sure NP are, in how many people are we allowed to have together before we're classified as "lame"? If we own your FC group, is there anything we should avoid doing to ensure we're not being "lame"?

Thanks...

Me Think Nolby Pride Got Some Respect

Something that happend to me in emain!!!
whas in emain and heading for amg when about 10 albs comes running back from amg and screeming NP is coming and i did think hell im trying to fight some of em instead of run home so i did think they where a zergin LOL whas only 5 from NP BUT You Got ME. Life Of a Sorcerer is Hard so i must say albs have respect for NP. There must be some group that albs and midds & Hibbs are scared to meet ? is there

 

[Envenom2]

well ive been in many Np groups now and i can say they dont run aound in 2fg, unless theres loads of albs about thats the only time they get 2fg together because comon lets face it whats the point in going to emain with 1fg? to get zerged by 4-5fg so Np get the good idea and make 2fg and they mostly wipe out everything in there path.But i can certainly say that nolby dont run around in 3fg 2fg max as stated above yes but 3fg is just lieing.

and wildfire who the fuck are you to say whos running around in big groups? everytime ur camping mmg with the albs i can hear ur big fucking mouth shouting shit piss off ffs and stop causing stupid arguments about a guild that has pissed all over every guild since they formed Np if u dont like it lump it.

 

[splash0r]

ffs ppl you are all pahetic whinning in BW about this and that go play counterstrike or sumthing whinne some there cus DAOC is like it is and ur whinne dosent change the fact some ppl have fun and some ppl will never get to have fun cus of their attitude .

 

[thorey]

a small sidenote considering the whine about ppl zerging up etc ..

Thing is i've also tried some alb for a while and im gonna state some facts here u are free to discuss what im about to say but pls if u are just gonna whine/flame do it somewhere else.

Albs population in emain during "primetime" isnt 2x the other realms or atleast not mid. Why it might seems so imo its that amg is camped almost 24/7 which causes severe problems.

If we say 30 Mids camp amg then albs are locked inside it with no possibility to get out of 2 main reasons.
The poor communication between the "masses" since alb lack a strong guild which if they would have charged the others would have followed.
Second is the lack of experience with Crowd Control there are many times i have seen sorces land very good mezzes on doors/ppl camping just behind them but just to be broken almost instantly of some iceroot or wizzie ae or of just nothing .. noone charges through and start to bash the casters doing dmg or the healers cc

Then when time passes lets say hibs come to amg wipes the mids there and take over the camp still no albs can get through.

Number keeps getting bigger until the point where they can break through by plain force and have severe losses by doing it, this leaves them with 2 options really. spread out in guild grps/misc grps or follow the zerg for a while get lost and killed by better organized small hib/mid grps
Unfortunatly it usually ends up with going with the zerg for a while get wiped while amg still is camped hence no chance of breaking through.

Thing is i really cant find a solution to it except to learn how to utilize cc better so we wont have the large zergs forming up on either side and which will also bring amg off the #1 spot on free rpts farming list..

Best regards "the one of the few kobbies who is Large :<"

 

[old.Finster]

about that Diva attitude: i have played and rvrd in albion till 50 and i know it s frustrating to put together team essentials there. basically you can t leave atk without minstrel, sorc and cleric. a theurgist for bladeturn is easier to get than that elusive minstrel. but yes, if you leave atk without speed 5, mass CC and insta heals you ll just have to be prepared to lose, because you lack what hibs and mids have in abundance.

and about the amg issue: i m first to say that emain is a _total_ misdesign. there should be a mileford gate connecting norther albion tk area with the mid tk area to allow for a 2nd route and much more sneak and hide for groups. even more interesting might be a high pass with a little tower or other fortification that doesn t lead to static gameplay like the mfgs.

my 2cp

Finster, <Nolby Pride>

 

[Envenom2]

yep i agree finster there should be 2 routes out of the tk areas in other words 2 mile gates it would make it a whole lot more harder to camp both gates that way

 

[hotrat]

basically you can t leave atk without minstrel, sorc and cleric. a theurgist for bladeturn is easier to get than that elusive minstrel

Agreed. For hib once your group has a bard you are pretty sorted. For mid you need healer and skald and then your sorted. Alb is the hardest, especially the minstrel because for some reason they have stealth (skill which is only good if ur solo, very limited use in fg's). Since see hidden a lot more minstrels group up i think, but minstrel is not much fun in a fight larger than 1fg vs 1fg (poor damage, only single target cc, not much power for lots of dd's, not much end when using lots of dd's and stun).

there should be a mileford gate connecting norther albion tk area with the mid tk area to allow for a 2nd route and much more sneak and hide for groups

Excellent idea, even better would be the high pass cus i hate mg's, but on the other hand it would be rare that both mg's are camped (hibs on one, mids on other ARGH).

xanatea wouldn t even leave MTK without a skald in team.

Only yesterday i saw him walk through mmg with only a kobold shaman i think (small shield) by his side , however i was ooe, and by the time i rested and caught him he was very close to DC (owned by mids at the time) so i just mezzed him, waved and ran away. Only to die 2 min later from stupid assasin revealing me in front of zerg

 

[old.Varg]

Aye that was a rare occurance of a healer and a shammie duoing emain - maybe the first and only

 

[Riddler]

hirr hirr, funny thread...

envy is a biatch innit?

 

[old.Wildfire]

"and wildfire who the fuck are you to say whos running around in big groups? everytime ur camping mmg with the albs i can hear ur big fucking mouth shouting shit piss off ffs"

Full. of. sh*t, as always. Yesterday was the first time I've stayed at MMG for more than about 20 seconds in the last month, and who the f*ck are you to say whether someone in another realm is spamming rubbish or giving useful orders?

EEEEEEEDIOT.
