New FG RvR Group

[Varna]

Hi,

I'm going to try get a set group running, mainly becuase I'm bored of the way I've been playing the game so far, I feel this would offer me a new challenge. Days / Times I've not thought about, but this can be sorted I guess later, just want to get general idea on those interested.

Main points are that 2 of the classes in the group will be a reaver and minstrel, and other classes I'm not too sure on - Assist train I'd like to see would be reaver as MA (me), and armsman/merc will assist me. Minstrel will branch out and supply interupts, whilst reaver also provides both slam/levi/debuffs to the assist train, aswell as TWF i.e infront 250 units with TWF on MoC'ing casters - and backup minstrel with interupts.

Only thing I ask now is show interest and post your class/spec/rr etc so I can get an idea of what groups could be made.

Thanks,

if you are going reaver + mini setup you would like a setup that i used to run with a few guys here that was kown as the evita group!

we ran

Minstrel - INterupts + assist
Sorc - mezz nuke
Merc - MA
Reaver - Assist + interupt ant BGed caster
Enhance Cleric - Buff Shearing/healing
Rejuve cleic - Healing
Paladin - BG/End bot
Firewiz - Damn Graendels nukes hurt! (but personaly stick a thurg or a cabby there)

Aye was an awesome set up but i think the base of the grp was all being rr5+ to start. think hes trying to set up a grp of ppl that will just run rvr as a set grp not worring about RR

as of 1.83 wizards get nearsight in the earth line meaning most wizards will get at least the lowest nearsight... hopefully this will increase their groupability

Oh dont remind me i made a cabby since my merc got no more rvr groups and well their main advantage is Nearsight and Debuff, without them 2 it would be like a firewizzy mixxed witrh a sorc

reaver is a shit ma, with all your interrupts you should be changing target several times for a quick dot/lt then carrying on assisting

 

[Dakkath]

Have to agree with Stoner 100% here...

Reavers are not MAs. We have a lot of toys and interrupting/rapid target switching is more to our strengths than sticking on one target.

Our styles, though godly in some situations, just aren't designed for being a MA...

Martok's right, that setup was pretty solid for us as a reaver grp when we ran, had a lot of fun and got a good number of rps...

Damn I miss that grp sometimes, it felt like home!!! Now-a-days however...

I'd be interested with Cabalist or Armsman - the Armsman could easily be MA although he is only 4L1 at the moment he's still fairly useful.

Dnt think rr will have anything to do with this grp tbh.
So whos wants to get a grp formed? wanna get back into rvr and having a set grp will be cool

 

[Martok]

well if you ever need a merc or a cabby, just give me a call since i dont play as much as i used to pointless me being in a set group but use me as a stand in anytime if you need! dan knows were to spam my mobiel

Aye Aye First Corperal martok!

 

[Saraden]

can come with cleric if you need

Apologies not replying for so long - Whats been said about reavers and MA is something which I can partly agree with, so maybe swap that role around and give to someone else - However, I still think having mincer and reaver playing as interuptors in the group would still be decent. If the reaver doesnt work, I'll use my caby instead - but want to try focus on using reaver - not becuase of rps but its the class I enjoy playing and I think it has a space in alb groups still, despite alot of indirect nerfs.

 

[Martok]

me and wisty ran in the setup i posted above for a good 6 months and it worked wonders! with a good minstrel with str cap and good dex in temp they can be good on assist (battler mincer spec) + interupts.

Reaver = Assist/stun munkie untill a caster/target gets BGed then he turns into killing Bger while interupting the Bged player ace combo tbh!

Merc will always be MA imo its what the class was designed for.

Although OP, I think reavers are getting a boost - hopefully something like an AOE spell spd decrease / debuff - minor but not as effective as say ML2 / ML9 BL. I think for inspirational purposes, have a ganders at a US reaver called Tirral, he released a vid a while ago and plays his role very well. I think the merc should be MA also, need a good one though! The armsman will be ace for the train, especially where reaver is concerened and the new abilities armsmen get for CC issues.
