Hibs And Keep Farming

[old.Cher]

Hmmm i remember posts from a couple of months back saying

"where are the hibs? i see albions rvring, and we constantly go to emain but there are no hibs to fight"

now we're fighting and your whining

and now your telling my the honourable albins who whole realm is based on the code of chivalry decides that it can put a

"4hr no go zone on an area"

nice, least the Order Of The Knights Templer still have there pride, enjoy your albion estoric, and enjoy your game, since if it were up to u there'd be no keeps and no relics, that way we could just all exp in our realms and not have to go and fight each other........

and if u hate zergs estoric, please tell me why u were part of the 83 albion force that tried to dislodge 30-40 hibs from a keep????

 

[amazingsteve]

Someone got his ass kicked.

mooooooooooooooan!:sleeping:

 

[Esoteric]

Erm cause it was our realm's keep? just a stab in the dark.

As I say was gonna leave it gave it a shot next time I won't bother.

Oh and the only time we actually try to put a zerg together is to counter the hibbie force of unskilled players. Most usually go to a different zone that should give you a major hint as to our view on zergs.

Hibbie zergs are like yapping dogs feed them and they grow larger don't feed them they starve and usually start to eat each other.

 

[Falcon]

And this is serious btw when we know hibs intend to hold a keep we generally exclude going to that area, sort of like a disease waiting to dissipate.

Cool so all we gotta do is stick a few mana chanters in Crauch and you wont come to emain anymore? What's that you say? no? Oh ok, didn't think so.

Keep taking for df and to take relics nothing more.

Not that that's anything major or anything, you know, relics and that, being the centre of the games design pretty much.

 

[old.Cher]

Now explain this no go area for 4hrs thing.

because in all my time in hibernia we have never put an area on NO GO alert.

we fight, we don't avoid

 

[Esoteric]

Well its very simple major alliance one says we are putting a curtain up around this zone or area. And no one goes their. We stay around it and cut off links and set up our own defences.

You knew we were out their, had some fun with some middies and killed a few hibbies, probably scouts.

All I ask you is "why do you think it took us so long to even bother to try for it". We were there had the numbers but just could not be arsed cause most of albs new the outcome.

 

[old.Cher]

i thought u albs were slow because whiners like u think u have no chance, and u didn't stand a chance with people like u saying,

"Why o why must we attack benowyc, i can't fight against anything that is an even battle, lets wiat for more people, and lets pray they don't even have one pbaoe person or we will all be killed......o woe is me!"

so your in fact happy for us to own a keep??

and it doesn't make your blood boil that a group of hibbies are sat around inside your keep doing floral arrangements and weaving baskets???

 

[Esoteric]

Nop, infact I'd like to buy one please, its coming up to valentines day and hibie floral arrangements are the best. Just leave one behind you, when we eventually decide to take beno back. I'll leave the money in a tin can near the hpk.

 

[civy]

Or to get past the pbers in the lord room. Nip to snow. Pick up a windchaser. Run back to keep. Pick up a bit of damage from pber. Watch as the windchaser ae’s the lords room

A 5 min run will get u a LOS ignoring, unlimited mana AEing machine.

 

[tildson]

Yeah, we always merge 3fg together when we meet 1fg as 1fg... Btw, yesterday, there were 1-2FG at Lord already beating at the Lord and that NP came PBAE'D us all is = 1 strong lurk from 1 FG NP, no more NP than that in hadrians that moment, ran in and MoC-PBAE'D all room to death. 1 LURK! Try stun next time

And what are u all whining about? Before you had no hibbie-resistance, now its too much? zZzzzzz... makes no sense really

what is the point in going on like that, geez, how pathetic, we won a fight so we are unskilled hmmmmm

and tbh it wasnt a zerg it was well organised, a mass of hib wanted to take the keep last time i was in a keep take group we went for beno and got "zerg'd" by 5fg of albs so in order for us to take keeps we need big forces, and we had rams etc it wasnt just a big zerg running round, NP were running round and yes they do have skill i have seen 2fg of np munch through 4fg of albs in emain without a single death no matter what you say that is skill just they can be annoying hehe

If you dont like zergs how come you always zerging us in emain or at ligen, just grow up and grow some balls ffs

 

[old.Downanael]

You fit perfectly to the picture i got from albion Esoteric.

Keep it going

Wasted about 30/40 mins of good kip time at beno, f-it if they want it that bad let them have it, fecking zoo animals from a freak show.

Let them log and the next day take it back.

Ailinne used to be that spot for Albs....or wait....you dont know where that is sorry....

We did got your relics on primetime,we did hold our relics primetime,we were brave enought to start on the weakest realm when Daoc came europe.

And now you saying we didint do anything? please :sleeping:

 

[Falcon]

<cough> did I just see np and skill muttered in the same sentence. Heh you guys get trounced on easily if numbers are either slightly less or on a same footing. In fact I'd go as far to say as you get pwned. The only way NP can win is by running around 1.5fg-3fg against 1fg albs or mids.

The more you speak the more you prove your jealousy and lack of any real RvR knowledge/experience. The fact is Nolby consistently take out forces upto and sometimes even over 3 times there size. Sure they might take out 2 people on their own when they're running as 3fg but hey, it's not like they should just ignore them is it. Esotric please at LEAST before mouthing off go get some experience learn the game, learn the server, watch whos who and who knows how to play and so on because at the moment you sound like an 8yr old school kid trying to give a lecture on a quantum physics, i.e. something he'd know absolutely bugger all about.

Or you could of course just keep making a cock of yourself and providing the entertainment

 

[Esoteric]

This is my 2nd level 50 on this server mate.

I was around in the days back when the middies liked to camp pk's for hours on end.

Hibbies evolved nicely, and just before np came along we had a nice situation with rvr. The zergs had started to take control but it cooled down and rvr was about skill.

And before this when hibbies took a keep it was to farm rps no other reason.

Now NP have come along.... nice one.

Seriously whenever I have faced np on equal or so numbers they have lost. One time we were on even odds beat NP twice in a row they come back with 3fg.

I have a fair bit of rvr knowledge, and I am not jealous otherwise I would have moved to hib like teador. I knew him when he was about too.

Perhaps I should try to find a way to beat you but I just don't have the juice in me to do it atm.

I have had my rant now Im happy, see you on the battle field.

 

[old.Nikolas]

The whole point was to open up DF, which Hibernia has struggled to have for a long time now. Most of the people who helped capture Beno went to DF.

Our guild claimed / upgraded the keep and decided to stay back with about 15 others so people could have chance to get to DF. We expected an Albion zerg to come and reclaim the keep and you guys delivered lol 88! I expected to see our guild get their asses kicked, and then NP turned up and the battle was won.

Our guild was placed up near the keep lord waiting to die fighting, and we didn't because only 5-10 made it that far, we didn't get many realm points at all but I enjoyed every minute of it People were finally able to enjoy DF again, and for that it was a job well done.

Shame so many people died trying to capture the keep, lol reminded me of Helms Deep in Lotr's, I am so used to getting killed by Albion zergs in Emain and I tell you I have never complained yet about its part of the game.

NP pride don't win all the time either, they just keep on going when they get killed they try something else.

 

[Esoteric]

Nik stop talking like that ur beginning to win my respect

 

[bone_idle]

Esoteric: So does " see you on the battlefield " mean. We'll meet you with our alb zerg in emain ???. Sounds like to me you'd rather run around Emain with 200 friends than take back your own keeps. With you saying this, I hope Hibernia and Midgard take more of your keeps. Grats to the albs that went to Beno and try and take back the keep. Its always great battles and keep takes when the enemy is around.

 

[VodkaFairy]

Esoteric, it's not the end of the world that hibs defend a keep you know. Just chill down

Wow..this is your second lvl 50!

You liked the situation before NP came along? is this the "oh Hibbies, please come to Emain..LOL Hibbies only zerg PVE these days" situation?

NP zergs? Nope, they move in 2 independant groups, who team up if they face superior(2+fg) numbers.

 

[tildson]

If hibs evolved so nicely, why did they have 22% of the total RP? You havent played on multiple servers, i can tell you that 22% is very little!

Seems like people dont agree with you that much, maybe you should consider if you really are right?

 

[Krillin.]

We defended keeps against mids at eras the other day and won. Fair play to Hibernia and holding the keep and fair play to NP.

Was a fun night in HW and enjoyed it. Think Eso is just annoyed that sometimes it can be frustrating being smacked by chanters although i imagine the same can be said about bof & sos combo. Swings in roundabouts and last night was our turn for an ass kicking. Here's looking forward to when the roundabout stops somewhere else

I swear i saw generic poster post here as well but i forgot he doesn't exist anymore

 

[Turamber]

Leave Esoteric alone!! Take it from me Cher, he is a very pleasant chap and not an Emain zergling - hence he spends a lot of time in the Albion frontier.

It -is- annoying trying to take a chanter defended keeper. Anyway moaning about it is just as much part of the game as you guys enjoying your victory. So ... chill

 

[swords]

Hibs keep farm...albs grey kill....what do Mids do?

 

[Falcon]

...stealth mostly

 

[old.Cher]

wow, that was the biggest keep (save relic keeps) rvr event ever tonight

144 albs
65 hibernians

roughly 201 people over benowyc, grats on the way u took it back guys.

now i'll take it back tomorrow at 7:30 if u want to do it again

 

[jonstone]

well unless there is another albion event I sincerely doubt you will find benowyc undefended. It really makes me laugh all the condescending talk between the realms when the actual fact of the matter is benowyc has been defended by GoP for the last 3 months and in that time the most amount it has been outside our control has been the last 2 nights, to which i congratulate the hibs. Now, not wanting to discredit anyones rvr knowledge but people seem completely unaware of the fact HW/Beno and the albion frontier in general has been defended for a long time now and the only keeps we have lost are usually surbrooke and hurbury and the main reason for losing them now is due to the gbps bug :/ Anyway to those who we see in HW keep coming back we have great fights and long may they continue, hope people dont cotton on to the fun we are having.

Personally after hitting rr5 with one character in emain and hitting rr5 with another purely in HW I am just really glad that on this server at least the focus is not just purely on emain.

 

[old.Finster]

i had diabolic fun squeezing into the little space with the woodmerchant and duking it out with 4 LoEs on the opposite parapet. had real adrenaline rush while holding 2 scouts a cleric and an avalonian at bay + avoiding the mincer coming up from left side.

and yes. we were 1 FG, coming when asked for assistance by ppl at ligen pad.

And I was their for the take too I got over my getting pwned hang ups and thought what the heck.

And turamber you know I have a very high opinion of you too.

I needed a good old moan and I had it.

Plus I have been to tesco's and replaced my fresh coffee supply, was getting withdrawel symptoms.
