When i try to solo with Bowmaiden, i just run into group after group of assasins :(

I guess that will never change

Still haven't convinced the fg's running that i'll not start a pet spam, powertranfser and ask the paladin to spam EF when pets start landing melee hits etc. Daoc sucks when your labled as a PvEr.

I like the insta rvr. I think it takes some - getting used to - thus tho know where to roam, if your fg, or even solo. When you know this, its kinda fun imo :)

I'm in two minds about IRvR ...

In group sessions, IRvR is great when it works... It's nice to have an area where you can go quickly and easily and be pretty much guaranteed a fgvfg fight... Loose and it's just release, rebuff and straight back into the action within 2 minutes... Unfortunately with it, comes the constant add (from all realms) and the whine that comes with it.

I dislike IRvR when I play as a soloer. Find a 1v1 and 99% of the time you get added on to hell or steamrolled by groups who are never very far away from solo fight spots...

I hate IRvR as an Alb... It' pretty universally accepted that HW > other IRvR locations... The terrain just seems to suit it better (although I wish someone would remove the damn villa with its wall bugs and abusers). The problem is it does disadvantage the realm it's in (normally ours). Two keeps down before the action even starts makes it far too easy for anyone who decides to exploit it for relic raiding.

But, no matter what you think about it, IRvR is here to stay... It's become part of the culture on our server now, it's the microwave dinner of the RvR world. It's not as good for you or tastes as good as a properly prepared meal but it's quick, convenient and easy to do...

Didn't vote as there was no

"yes, because it's actually easier to get fg fights this way while roaming hadrians"



Only that zone is good for irvr, the other 2 are utter crap :D

iRvR is good imo, as Zebolt says, Action > all, even if it suddenly turns to an AJ slugfest and you want to smash up your keyboard; 5 minutes later youre back and roaming.

If you know where and how to move around, its great, FG vs FG fights, Hadrians has great terraint for it aswell.

Didnt like Hib much tho, but perhaps it could be an idea for duo/trio area? and Odins area for ze stealthers or smth ;)?

It has been mentioned, and it could work, iRvR in all three realms, Hadrians for GvG, Odins for stealthers/soloers and Emain for small groups ;d?

imo ofc.

I keep trying the iRvR, but not getting anywhere much with it.

I like Keep/tower RvR, in OF and NF. The days of there being a BG up (in Alb anyway) for the frontier, and (semi)organised frontier forces seems to have been dead for the last few months. So that's the sort of RvR I prefer dead, anyway.

HW IRVR seems to mean no Epic questing for Albs, which is a pain for non-50's in my guild. It's also a lot harder for 'noobs' to get started in that sort of conflict than in a keep/tower fight, where the pace is typically a little slower. That would seem to push new players starting the game out again, which isn't what I want - I want more players out there!

Irvr is a good concept, too bad people feel forced too zerg up more then the other realms when loosing so we end up with a zerg from 1400 - 0200

Quest for the holy RP wins of the sake of a good fight i guess..

I think the fault of Irvr lies in the layout of the maps putting the bridges too close too the keeps, maybe the new island will bring more widespread action and invite people too stray from the zerg...

You lot at 50 think you can cope with me? Eh ----> if I devoted time to getting properly equiped and specced? Wot if I decided to play as an inf or ns at 50 with all the bonuses they get? Nah, wotever I decide upon (too late now) I would be the best and you lot know it too. You think there is so much diff between Thid and your scenario? - nah - not met a single person that can take me out when we both unbuffed - a couple of years too. I too good and always will be. I might take a a long rest and decide to show you lot too at 50 - you never know. Take it from me you will meet something you ain't met yet in this game. Wot makes you think you can take me when you can't in Thid? Eh wot?

Oh c'mon MKJ... You've been spouting the same old nonsense for as long as I can remember...

Ever heard the phrase 'Put up or shut up'?
