you zerg bigger than alb ever has simply because our zergs were all full of low lvls, you have 4-5 fgs lvl 50s sat at amg at 2am....

but hey hibs always were no-skill'ers.

 

[Rhymes]

Guys if you want through amg then bring a force that is capable of getting through, hibs can defend their realm in whichever way they see fit, this game is all about tactics. If you can't cope with the hib zerg then you need to come up with either more players to fight it or sit back and accept defeat. At the end of the day if Hibernia are defending their realm and can still go into albion or midgard and take one or two keeps with little resistance then they are doing exactly what they need to.
Someone moaned about their realm having x amount of players but some of then being schoolkids and not being online for more than 2 hours a day. Its your realm you chose to play it. All realms have the same problem with people not being able to sit their ass at a pc all day so dont moan about it. If albion are able to gather enough people to hold off relic raids most times then they can sure as hell gather the people to get through amg if they want.
Play the game people and quit the moaning.

In my opinion it seems there are plenty of people who can manage to get through amg, plenty of invaders seem to get all the way to the gorge and attack us on the way out to emain.

In most cases though albs prefer to get through go take cruch and maybe crim then sit on their albion asses rather than organise themselves to block DL and take the other keeps.

The thing is most hibs go to emain because its their frontier, it is constantly attacked and therfore there are people to kill. If hibs go to Yggdra and especially Sauvage they can be sitting for 20mins or more waiting for a single person to come through their border keep. If you guys came into your own frontier more then maybe you could entice us there for a a challenge.

Well done hibs for defending your realm



complaints about this sorta thing make me wanna uke:

 

[Tigerius]

It's cool by me, it's revoltingly boring but hey if the Hibs don't want regular RvRing in Emain then we'll just have to take our buisness elsewhere

An unfortunate side effect we've been seeing these last few days however is the Hibzerg spilling over into Midgard, and I'd gladly see any excuses for that. Hibs who never normally leave emain in Odins? that's a sure sign the Hibzerg in emain is getting bored.

On a positive note it's lead many mids to roaming our frontier, makes for much more interesting encounters. Shame both CS and Odins MMG were Mid camped too last night but hey

One more thing, if Hibs claim they have a right to defend at any cost, no matter how boring, then I'll take that as an "okidoki" to proceed with attack at any boring cost.

 

[Rhymes]

As I said already, no one should be moaning about another realms teactics unless they are using a bug/exploit. All else is allowed.
At the end of day most wars were won by numbers in r/l. If you wanna fight back then its up to those people to adjust their playstyles and fight against it.

And you dont already ?

Bah was bored last night so my group went towards apk to find some action. Sent our NS to scout and he said: Inc 1fg.. we started running and Gnida (NS) sent; "even more", but we thought fight keel etc. a bit later the 3fg (atleast) of albs lie there dead and all in my group is still all alive (Infernos U have some nice heals man).
Move on to Mid wall and beat 2 fg's there and log of a bit later.
Now thats the way rvr is supposed to be (granted we dont win every time but its the smallscale battle thats fun and provide more rps)

The point isn't what we do (I know you'd just argue if I raised it again) but how you react at it. Since you are saying its cool then I expect no more complaints from your side.

 

[Exiled]

its our realm we defend it, in keep takes in alb you defend by zerk (oo yes you do) so when people go into emain, what do you expect ? emain isnt a neutral rvr zone its hibs back yard so dont moan when you get nibbled on, kthxbye

 

[Kagato.]

Personally to say we are infamously the worst zergers, I havent seen a good alb zerg in ages. Usually its several small groups running about and getting themselves killed with stupidity which is even worse play.

 

[Cerverloc]

Nerf hibs.

What is more depressing is that you seem to do so shamelessly for hours in a row.
For the last few days all you do is all hold hands zerg to amg in emain, open ur thermos flask and settle down for mutual back slapping.

I suspect that this zerg consists of the usual bunch of fair-weather rather imcompetent members of ur realm who lack the skill or courage to roam and test their skills against other roaming fg's (this is true of zergs of all nationalities).

I know there are a few truly skilled and adventurous hibs out there because i meet them (novamir etc and others whose names you will forgive me for not remembering). It is a pleasure to fight kill, or be killed by these players.

But you zergers are killing the game... Albs (and mids i imagine) are faced with 3 options when u uberzerg at the mileg8s for hours in a row.
1) Zerg back.. NO thankyou . I will not sink to ur level.
2) Go to to the waste lands of the mid and alb frontiers.... But theres rarely any regular fun there... particularly as hibs wont go there EVEN as a zerg.
3) Log off.... Which is what many players have been doing for the past 2 days.

Carry on like this hibs, and few and fewer players will bother logging back on. Then u'll be left playing with yourselves, but then thats probably an apt description for ur current zerging activities.

Come on hibs. Prove me wrong. Prove to me that you are as great as you claim to be on these boards. Stop playing wih yourselves and get roaming. I can't beleive the GM's of ur guilds / alliances (of which some are noteworthy) actually think that zerging reflects well on ur guilds.

I think someone got owned!

Nah when hibs zerg emain its fun, many rp's etc. Every time i ran past amg a grp of hibbys (prolly one that is to tired of silly waiting) will charge poor little minstrell to PK, and get owned in the middle by albs. I personnaly enjoy these pulls, but sometimes you get 2 many aggro adds ;/ <Sigh>

 

[sorusi]

Wish i had an aoe dd:er or scout farm those hibbs

 

[old.chipper]

sorry guys but we used to do this to hibbies all the time camp amg for ages with our 100+ zerg (thankfully its not like that anymore) of lvl 40+ but i have learned that its more fun and more worthwhile in a small grp so im afraid you wont see me in the alb zerg cos if there isnt a guild grp i dont go rvr

ps. the alb zerg now consists of lvl 30+ some of which wanna play general custer and a lvl 30 is no match for a lvl 50 id stick to caledonia and go to odins or collory if i was that level cos in emain youll just get owned
but hey there still learning we all went through the lets zerg approach so we cant begrudge them it if u dont like it dont go with them its that simple

All realms zerg equally much. Only albion has more players. Conclusion: PLAYERS zerg, because it's easy and you don't die quickly. Some don't enjoy it, some do. The realm you play in has nothing to do with it.

1) Zerg back.. NO thankyou . I will not sink to ur level.

Players from all realms zerg. Albion players are just more numerous and thus form bigger zergs, and thus are more infamous for zerging. But really: players in all realms like to zerg.

2) Go to to the waste lands of the mid and alb frontiers.... But theres rarely any regular fun there... particularly as hibs wont go there EVEN as a zerg.

I very regularly go there with 1-2 fg's, the problem is that albs and mids prefer to go to Emain. Other realms' frontiers are mostly empty. The few times good fights do occur there, it gets posted here because it was so special. I mostly go there when I get zerged in Emain once again by Albs or sometimes Mids. I also go there when Hibs zerg, because I prefer not to be part of zergs.

3) Log off.... Which is what many players have been doing for the past 2 days.

Or go to the Midgard frontier instead of Emain, get DF and go there... or lure part of the hibs to apk; that usually seems to work.

Carry on like this hibs, and few and fewer players will bother logging back on. Then u'll be left playing with yourselves, but then thats probably an apt description for ur current zerging activities.

Good, less whiners. If you hadn't noticed yet: zerging is a safe tactic. That it's safe is determined by the nature of the game. Go and play another game if it bothers you too much. If the population imbalance sways too much to Hibernia (which I doubt will happen), some players in Hibernia will just switch to Albion again so we can have some nice fights.

1. Send up one of the 20,000 infiltrators you guys have to take a look.

2. Wait for 10 minutes or so until ...

3. Mids charge the waiting Hibs from the rear, resulting in heavy casualities.

4. Slip through in the confusion and ...

... and Alb zerg finishes it off, depending on Hib and Mid survivors.

Hey that's exactly what always happens ( :

Conclusion: Players from all realms zerg.
Conclusion 2: Stop whining about it.

 

[Tilda]

Think hibbies acctually zerg more than Albion now, but that said.. im biased

 

[old.Takahome]

Hib zerg? Have u played the old days when we can´t get past end of crim valley?

Got owned? Ask veeshan a how to play guide and stop trolling.

Outlaw´s happy coz there r more hibs, and u cry nerf on hibs, c the population chart and complain.

And to those who´s crying loud how hibs r overpowered, learn to play and remember u can not beat a rr6 char lvl 50 with a rr3 lvl 50. Veeshan´s got one of the best rvr grp out of there and they r sure powerful, learn how to play.

Btw the highest rp earner is a mid skald with 4+ millons of rps (prolly rr9) and he´s in his own mid grp which constantly ownz over 2fg or 3fg of hibs/albs. All comes down to tactics and player skill. This is much better than other games no brainer one click and attack (here styles if u wanna do dmg)

 

[old.BJ|Bored]

i bet a rr1 50 mage could beat a rr6 by just stun + nuke then redo stun when he purges ;p

 

[old.Takahome]

Sure sure, just as a rr1 alpha vs a rr6 caster, sure sure.

 

[old.BJ|Bored]

well ok how do you win ?

assume ur stunned then nuked to death ..

well come on how can you win ? soon as u purge ull be stunned again

 

[old.Takahome]

Gimme a char beside a no buffed rogue or a caster and I´ll show u. I´ll remember u that once stun´s off and enemy chasing at me we got nothing to do but try keep nuking and pray a kill/run due to immunity timer!

Just as easy as a scout shield stun and 2 shoot? (that assume he´s too lazy to shoot u from out of nearsight range) and if u purge stun again? Or as easy as a cleric beating the ass off any caster all the time? (mez, stun dd x 3 and u got melee dmg and tons of hp) Again not easy to kill anything beside casters with a stun and 3 DDs and PLAY IN GRP, ask hibs how ignea´s DD hurts (while they r stunned by a mincer/cleric/shield slam), then tnk it after patch where they got better dd with low cast time.

Just one thing, purge reseting CC´s timer was changed in future patch? I´m pretty sure it is.

Again if u r vs a caster from full range wot u xpect? As tanks say wow we need a chance against em full range then let us got a chance against melees at melee range when we can´t cast and do 1 dmg meleeing with a staff.

P.S.: if u can´t understand it, again, play in a freaking grp, u tnk hibs don´t whine when they got killed by Alpha/outlaw or veeshan´s grp?

 

[old.Takahome]

Oh and we´ll c lots of whines against hibs after patch so be prepared

 

[old.LandShark]

and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on

ummm how many rr6 tanks we have oh none and alpha doesnt rvr in the zerg he takes lone people so chance u gonna catch him unaware is umm kinda low - so exactly what is your point?

As previously stated tank doesnt get to use ip becuase hes dead most of the time before he can use it (also have this problem with my cleric insta almost no point hammering the insta heal key in the hope thta your not dead before stun wheres off )

Lol ( ;

Some peeps tried getting a Hib zerg together to get the Alb zerg out of Emain. We got 20 peeps at Crim, lvl 35-50, to match the 4 fg Albs at amg. Had a hard time keeping peeps together, and before we could gather em all, 1 fg went after a few Mids and ran into the Alb zerg. Rest of the Hibs came to their aid at amg, looked around and then got zerged too. A regular night out in Emain.

 

[Cuthervaen]

Hehe I managed to reach my friend Outlaw and give him a warmly embrace before being zergued, as not to be eating grass alone

Was about time after missed you so narrowly twice, /bow

Then time to call it a night, too tired to try the impossible task of keeping 4 FG hibs together, and too bored to play zerg wars so late in the night.

See you tomorrow, hoping for some fun fights.
