Hard to start on Camlann

[Jimmi]

Lo guys!

I've been trying to start "for real" on Camlann for quite a while now. Rolled a few chars, but the lack of decent equipment and the fact that I get killed everytime I try and find a nice place to level kinda isn't very cool.

Mind you, I really LOVE PVP and I don't mind people killing me ofc, but does anyone have some advice as to what to do as a new player on Camlann? I have /leveled a 20 skald, and basically I need a nice hunting spot and some better equipment (got that free stuff from Jordheim).

Also, as I am totally new at this PVP server stuff -- do people have BBs here? Isn't it risky? Don't they get wtf pwned when they're standing around alone?

just think about where you wouldn't go if you were on a normal server, cus it would be far away/no groups etc. then go there

I don't have any personal favorites at that level, always leveled through pvp or with a friend, but i'm sure the others can help you with that

as for bots, some people do indeed have them, but they are pretty rare and often only used for pve, as its quite a big hastle to pvp with one where it can get killed if you dont hide it well and you have to rebuff every time you port/die. I played for a long time at lower levels with a friend who had a bot, and even tho it was hidden in pretty obious spots, it didn't get killed nearly as often as you'd maybe think; just put it somewhere where people dont usually run if you're gonna use one (which is imo lame considering most ppl DONT have one).

edit: in the high 20s, consider OTDs in muspelheim for good-ish skald equipment

Cheers m8!

I'm gonna reroll my skald to Norse, but where should I place my first 30 points?

Also, is 47 songs, 44 hammer, rest parry a viable spec @ 50?

 

[enkor]

str, con, cha 10 each

and why go 47 bs? 46 is the usual spec.. (I'm 46/44axe/17 and wish i was hammer instead )

 

[Jimmi]

Thx mates

Just rerolled him, having tons of fun atm

 

[harebear]

hammer for the win, axe sucks

 

[Jimmi]

This server is really odd... I join a grp to help some people form a guild... well.. since I just left the 'starter guild', I can't help them anyways, so they decide to kick me and kill me!

Very nice of them :S

Oh well

 

[Fuzzy]

They sound like eejits to me...they probably wont last long then.

 

[Sulphur]

What was their name out of interest? <sharpens gimp stick>
:touch:

 

[Jimmi]

Can't remember their names... but they were germans... kinda explains it

 

[trull]

mithra, nisses and the third one which I cant remember is safe from pk so maybe its good to level there. Otherwise search around tir uphost or east lough derg.. not that many running around there

 

[Jimmi]

Btw; how does one gain good xp from PVP'ing? So far I've only killed people my lvl (20) and I don't really see that XP bar moving at all uke:

 

[Zephyrex]

Because they were no reward?

It also happens a lot that someone who's hurt by mobs or other players gives close to 0 rps/exp

 

[Sulphur]

PvP gives crazy amounts of exp at low levels if you know where to hunt
They gotta be rewarded, you can check by clicking on them.. If it says
[Gimp] Is worth no reward, he won't give you exp, if it says [Gimp] he'll give you exp. Hope this helps

 

[Jimmi]

Hehe how does a grey take on purps? :S

 

[Jimmi]

correction; how does a lvl 20 skald with free gimpy equipment and no silver to buy back con take out a purp?

 

[Sulphur]

Air theurg casts 12 air pets
Debuff relevant damage and nuke x20 = 2 bubs exp

Hehe how does a grey take on purps? :S

[Jimmi]

No.

But I could only imagine plains to be full of peeps, and subject to many a ganksquads.
