Too bad the fun in Thidraki is so short.
After 3 nights (170 rp:s one night) there i hit the cap with my shammy Zirkonite.
Now he´s been shelved for a while, and i´m instead trying to get my shadowblade ready for BG.
See u there some day.

I'd like to apologise on behalf of Albion for capping you guys out of Thidranki so fast. I am seeing Albion in a whole new light since playing my friar Cadfael.

As Lurkalot my Inf I pretty much worked alone, got in made my kill got out (where possible).

With Cadfael I am getting to see the utter chaos that goes on in the unstealthed world. All I here is "charge", "heal", or <insert chimp here> yells for help from the west (generally the same chip that ive rezzed 5 times in the last 10 mins).

Last night for example we we're outnumbered heavily by Mids, but still we were sucked in, chewed up, and spat out when chasing the small group of retreating Mids who would lead us to the main Mid zerg.

I'm also noticing that the quality of our Infils seems poor at the moment (or lacking in numbers), the SB's are having a riot out there and are pretty much unopposed by our stealther threat. I have spoken many times with Mondoh (mattygroves) about this and both of us wish that we could clear our rps to have another shot at Thidranki (all those lovely poorly stealthed SBs).

I have many more gripes/observations about Albs in Thidranki, but these for me seems the basis for the reason behind Mids capping so fast.

btw. I saw sammie for the first time last night while on Alb bridge, little white haired feller in green armour I think. Was about to charge him when a norse thane and a troll showed up behind bridge and I charged them...good fight guys, would have had that thane if his troll buddy wasnt beating on me at the same time, or if the albs who stood 10 yards away had responded to my yells to take the troll down.

You see, I'm griping again.

Bless you all,

from the Grumpy Old Friar

dont worry cadfael, you get used to it, and most of the time there is nothing you can do about it.

After playing Mack (SB), and then Sammie (Zerker) i had the self same wake up call, from operating independantly to running with "the zerg"

we have the self same chimpanzees who wont back off TK, and get nuked by the men at arms or master wizards, shouting for rezz with alarming regularity, i know for a fact that i am LOATHED by alot of people every time i join a cg, as i 100% advocate (and bluntly state) no rezz ok ATK. this gets up the nose of certain people who feel they have a god given right to a rezz (risking healers in the process) after they have fucked up for the Nth time in the day.

bollocks to them, let them release, rinse and repeat, they will learn the hard way.

in regards to getting used to it tho, sometimes, just sometimes, you get a majority of players online in thid at the same time, who listen and co operate through the cg, and then everything is fun and hunky dory (for your realm anyway).

in regards to capping on thid, my mate has sent an email to GOA (as a first port of call) suggesting this.

players characters can stay on thid, but once the 350rp allowance is reached, no more rps are gained, thus no1 can gain more RA and improve themselves over any1 else.

i think this is a GREAT idea! and as a realist i know it is unlikely to happen, but even if there is a 0.00001% chance, i think we should support the idea and also email GOA (again as a first port of call). some of you have deleted characters to reroll with the 4 character slots we currently have, i know this is alleviated a bit in SI, with 8 slots, but thats ages away.

Mack and Sammie were great chars, i loved them, but i was forced to delete because i want to move on and try new chars.

the bottom line is they want us to play (and pay) so if enough people emailed, who knows....maybe something would happen.

p.s I AM A REALIST! i know there is only a minimal chance, BUT i dont need you to reply here negatively. if you think its a good idea, then say so, and do something, email GOA, if you dont.......well, you dont...no comment needed.

regards all

 

[Madonion Slicer]

I have to say the same, with Draw i worked alone and relyed on myself, but now with my minstrel and Cleric it is a whole new fight, and in the BG we seem to suck bad at group battles.

 

[BlitheringIdiot]

Come to hibbie, we need more people and as of yet we seem to have a lot less morons than alb and mid

Well, I've just sent an email myself to GOA regarding staying in BG, so you never know, if we get enough people petitioning them then maybe..........

Xoz mate, im considering hibs next, considering it as a very real possiblity, its dependant on what happens with PvP and also i would like to play my runie (L18) and my new hunter (L1!!) through the BG.

its also dependant on A) a money transfer and B) some nice people (like yourself) to show me the hunting spots from 1-24 and to level with.

regards

 

[Hercus]

true they should raise the rp cap in the bg's, like r4/5 in bg1 etc

 

[Flimgoblin]

or you could maybe level to 25 and go to the next one?

maybe? just possibly? how about it?

get some of your friends to go from the other sides?

RP cap is fine as it is. Part of thid is that people don't have many RAs.

 

[mattygroves]

Yup, it's a great shame that the other BG's are unpopulated. I went to Murd recently with my theurg and the only thing I saw was tumbleweed blowing eeriely along the road.

I think another solution to the RP prob in bg would be to lose realm points when you die.

But I'll email in support of the above suggestion too.
