Leirvik: Greatest Hits

All a matter of tactics on that Island.

Absolutely, can't fault anyone for it, it's just the way it is.

Also, buy a water breathing pot, then you can chase em in there.

No, this is the problem, you can't chase them because they use the water interface to shake the stick, which is bug abuse IMO, and stealth when they can. Half the time they don't even have to, because you are near death before you can even get to them. And a pair of scouts can never be touched by a tank. I even snare, but you can't stop them getting to the water interface.

There are plenty of ways to deal with them using mezz and dots, and your own stealthers, but none of that has anything to do with a tank.

I don't really mind, I'll just play PvE until RvR, or maybe try if there are a dozen others there so I stand a chance of contributing. It's just taht it's the first time I ever did any PvP and it's a badly flawed map from a tanks perspective.

Agreed the island is a bad design. I realise they wanted to get people used to boats and probably expected some naval battles. Reality is nobody is doing it. The Island should be revised to be 2 to 3 times the size it is now.

Regarding the water 'bug/working as intended shite', it is being used in Frontiers RvR also. Some of the stuff being done is really lame. People using zephyr on departing boats etc....etc. Get used to it, sad but true. Doubt Mythic will change it.

Best thing for tanks is a group. I'm sure you can get one there in prime time. Although Dou's work very well to. There is a mincer/H'Ogre merc doing very nicely in Leirvik. Constantly seeing them pawn hunter/sb teams.

Went back to PvE and dinged 45, If I get another character I'll try out the RvR again sometime. Doubt it will be a tank though.
