MYTH: Albs/Mids want more Hibs in RvR. New low reached.

[Cernos]

I think I've just seen Albs and Mids sink to the lowest I've ever experienced.

It's 4.30 am GMT, there's 5 of us Hibs in the gatehouse at AMG (remnants of 2FG who have been running Emain all night). We see Mids incoming. 2FG ish of Mids arrive and come up to battlements. We fight. We do well and kill about 7, might have killed more but then Albs arrive with 1FG+ and overrun us. The Albs don't attack the Mids, they fight with them against Hibs. Then when Hibs all dead Albs stand around with Mids and don't fight, while Mids corpse jump, corpse sit, corpse emote. Mids then let Albs head off through AMG to wherever they please. Mids stand around seemingly bored for a while then wander off, then Albs come back, stand around looking bored for a while and wander off (or maybe just looking foolish for colluding against 5 Hibs).

WTF? You say you want to see more Hibs in Emain. You deride Hibs for fighting mobs more than they fight Albs/Mids, then you come up with crap like this?

I hear that this was planned on IRC and that on IRC it was excused on the basis of "clearing the Hib zerg from Emain". LOL, 5 Hibs = a zerg!? There wasn't a Hib zerg in Emain all night anyway. Far from it. Most of the night it was 2FG of Hibs trying hard to avoid any other groups tagging with them (some would say too hard, it caused some tension). Hardly a zerg. Ask Blejsarus.

One realm mustering a larger force to clear Hibs from Emain I can deal with. But two realms (who make up 72% of the server population between them, think on that a moment) colluding to do so is just bullshit. Especially when there's all this rubbish about wanting to get Hibs back in Emain. What a bunch of sulky children. And the corpse abuse afterwards just proved the point. My oh my, I hope it made you feel big (you know who you are).

And no, before someone says it, we didn't "get owned". 5 of us took down 7 before we died, fighting 3FG of Mids and Albs combined.

A new low folks, I hope you're proud. I don't want to hear any more about getting Hibs back into RvR/Emain. You killed the subject by jumping into bed together - lets hope you Mids catch some nasty Alb diseases.

Meep..

Hm.. dunno what to say, silly albs and mids :/

But on your other point, I think most mids and albs would love a greater hib presence in emain.
If you'd been running with blejs today, I'd guess it was fun? So don't let some stupid children put you off :/

 

[old.Atrox]

Well.. hibs cooped with albs last night aswell....

And how/when we did do that

 

[- Pathfinder -]

/em remembers Hibgard co-op on Relic. /em kinda laffs at Hibs whining.

That said I wouldn't lower myself to co-opping with Mids, but if some Albs do I can see why ^^

 

[Ardrias_Mid]

Just a note Path, might be a long time ago, but Albs and Hibs werent really unfamiliar to co-op taking relics from mids etc

 

[old.Gombur Glodson]

See? We're all rotten bastards.

Think Cernos' point is not so much about the cooperation, but about the whining about us not going to emain much, when it's in fact as much Mids/Albs fault as it is ours. Fact is Hibs in somewhat of an RvR depression for a few reasons.

Firstly, both Mids and Albs had something silly like 3 - 4fg camping the gorge a week or two back, they did this solidly for a few days, this prevented any Hibs even getting to emain in the first place as they were repeatedly farmed trying to get anywhere near.

Secondly, it's xmas, some people away so generally less people to play with.

Thirdly, when we do get to emain, we get zerged, there's no point Albs/Mids saying they don't zerg, fact is they do, plain and simple. Every time I'd visited emain, I've seen no less than 4fg of Albs together (Hell we even went there with 8 lvl35 - grey con chars the other day, ganked a lvl50 running to the Alb zerg at MMG, only to have around 5/6fg Albs descend on us for it) As much as SotL claim only 2fg max, that maybe true, but the fact is the other 4fg are never more than 10secs behind them, the second SotL draw to a halt to get into a fight, the other 4fg of Alb zerg newbies catch up and muscle in too.

I've heard many Hibs, sadly many friends say they're fed up of RVR lately, fed up of repeatedly getting zerged over and over. Many are even considering, are quitting the game due to it.

As I say, you can lie to yourselves all you want about zerging, the truth is both Mid and Alb do (and yes, Hib are guilty of it, but maybe at most once every 2 weeks for a few hours, or defending our relics - which realm wouldn't?)

I know most kiddies that post here will say boohoo, we don't care about a sob story, fair enough, but don't begin to whine if Hib on this server becomes a dead realm.

On a final note, some of us Hibs do still have the will to RvR and will still perservere too, but it's really not being made by current pathetic attitudes from certain players of the other realms.

 

[bone_idle]

.Why do Mids and Albs want a greater Hib presence in emain. Why does the fight always have to be in emain. Surely the Mids and Albs can fight each other in there other realms too??? . Just a sudgestion. /edit: I think Albs have to zerg because all their tanks are shite so everyones a mage and have to blow the crap out of everyone before we can reach them .

So Gorge is your only way into Emain?

 

[bone_idle]

the gorge route is the easiest route into emain without having to run past level 50+ mobs through the cain route ( daughters of medb, fuaths and bloodletters).

 

[Falcon]

It's not only the quickest way, but the only way most people know and the only way not surrounded by masses of agro mobs

Well isn't Sauvage the only way to Hadrians for albs? (if there even is one...)

 

[Jood]

Gorge also has bindstone and is closest to most the larger towns. Its the easiest to use, hence the large numbers of hibbies passing thru, hence ur camping it

OMG, so only the easiest way or no way at all? Dunno, but if I wanted to get to Odin's while Albs or Hibs are camping Yggdra, I'd just take a detour and get there anyway instead of not going at all...

 

[Falcon]

"OMG, so only the easiest way or no way at all?"

We didn't JUST say it was because of the easiest way we take it, we said it's because it's the only way some people know and the only way that wont lead to many xp deaths, not to mention the only way that wont take 30mins+ per journey.

Hilarious argument. All Albs/Mids have to do to get to Emain is sit their fat arses on the pad at their portal keeps. Mythic even made it easier for them by putting bindstones next to the pad, so when they die at AMG they only have to walk three paces to get back again, before hitting /stick on their nearest group member and arrriving back at AMG before rezz sick even wears off.

Yet you criticise the 'lazy Hibs' who won't avoid a blockade by getting on a horse, taking a long journey to Cain, then running out to Emain through a route full of purple con aggro mobs. All that effort just to come to Emain to get zerged and feed Albs/Mids more RPs. You really are having a laugh aren't you?

Anyway, nice deflection from the original subject of this thread. Perhaps because what happened last night is indefensible.

heh, 30mins =)

tops 5mins from emain to gorge/collory with highest speed, when it sure can take 10-15mins to wait for gothis/wizards to get on pad.... daughter of medb = blue con and rarely aggro, bloodletters = easy to evade, and how the fk can u get exp death if a fuath aggro's 1...2...3...maybe even 4 grps?

yes, the tiny coop this morning might have been lame, but 1g+ albs? afai can recall, it was ~5 albs, sticking to Jag...and no, after the hibs was killed, it was open rvr, tho it took a while until we could find the albs again, which indeed wiped us off to bed

get over it, it was nearly 5am on a monday morning, dead bored of emain and its not like ull see it happen all the time

:sleeping:

 

[old.Bubble]

its a fact that emain is alot easyer to get to then odins gate / Hadrians wall

Odins- hug zone walls to avoids lots and lots of agro
Hadrians- i zone wall is full of great brown drakes other is full of ellyll's/ravenclan/ cyth's(nasty invisable proc nuking SOB's)
Emain - follow road through middle of Briefine to emain


Hibs on US servers didn't have a problem every since you could bind at PK...infact some hibs get back to emain before albs and mids did

1) You have to take into account the time it takes to get from bindstone to Druim Cain, that alone is 5 - 10mins as there is no bindstone at Cain.

2) You assume everyone has speed, this isn't Midgard where Skalds are aplenty, or Alb where Minstrels are aplenty, it's Hib, where there's a nasty lack of bards.

3) There's a nasty amount of undead Mid/Alb/Hib mobs on the way from Collory to Emain, all of which have a habit of being just over brows of hills causing you to run into large amount of them, you can't run away from some of them either so are forced to fight.

4) Who said anything about 1 - 4fg?

 

[Azal]

odins is easy to get to and around without any aggro..really easy. go check some maps that show rough mob locations..and hadrians/penne, aint so bad when you know your way around

Let's be honest now Eynar, you would buy a medallion for emain if albs or hibs were camping your bk's.. in fact you would buy a medallion for emain before you even knew there were enemies at the gates.

<insert random Alb name>Sauvage? Hadrians? Are those areas coming with the SI expansion pack?

About the hibgard relic raid, as I recall..Midgard was taking keeps, Hibernia noticed and decide to quickly gather a relic force and go to the power relic keep, scouts told us mids were at strenght relic keep.
Hibbies get door(s?) down at power relic keep.
Hibbies get whiped at pow, Mids get whiped at str.
middies hear scout reports that pow relic keep door/doors is/are down, so they decide to run there. They take middie relic.
2/3fg of nervous hibbies show up at the power relic, Mids show honour and brains, since a fight would mean great losses on both sides, and no one would gain something from it, and let Hibbies take power relic.

 

[old.Isos]

hmmmm... see what happen after I log?? =)

there were some great fights in emain last night
was sooo happy some hibs showed up. and our group kind of teamed up with a loe group just so we could give some oppsition to the 3-4 fg hibs and mids that were running around =)

damn I loved that 3 way fight up on the hill at DC, mids killed my group while we were waiting for an LD and then hibs showed up and then more albs, damn that sure was a fight to remember

and damn locomo hits hard, and always forgetting to use engage when almost loosing a duel
