Nicknames!

[bredo]

can someone please explain the following stuff for me as i'm pretty new here

emain
BAF
zerg
proc

Thanks a bunch...

 

[Khazik]

BAF: Bring A Friend, its when a mob (monster) comes with 1 or more other mobs when you pull it.

Zerg: Groups running around together en masse

Emain: Frontier Zone

Proc: If a weapon has a proc it means theres a chance the effect will 'go off' or come into effect.

Hrm, hope this helps.

To elaborate a little on above replies, 'Zerg' is a semi fond nickname give to large numbers of enemies originating from the game Starcraft where on of the races you could plays main tactic was to breed really fast and therefore win by shear overwhelming numbers.

And Proc is short for 'Process', when a weapon 'procs' it triggers a process of usually dealing out some damage or a debuff or some other effect upon hitting, or a Reverse Proc on an armour will 'process' when its been hit.

Emain is in the Albion frontier...

 

[fl3a]

cuz of all the albs there eh?

 

[Repent Reloaded]

dont flame the noobs or I will slap you!

 

[hiban]

U will see the 2 words "albs" and "zerg" together quite alot as u get to play the game at higher lvls

They call it tactics and skills themselves. or simply blame it on their so "weak and useless" classes. Learn to smile at albs and look at their ears when they speak to u, then u slash em with the axe when they turn their back and walk away. good luck



Take care

 

[katt!]

nono. you get it wrong,

its "zerg" when albs move in big groups. in hib and mid its called "skill", "tactics" and "cooperation" when they move in big groups.

 

[MesS°]

what katt! said

 

[hiban]

Oh i see


(albs never move in "big groups"... they move in MASSES. Huge amounts of ppl. All with either plate or some sort of insta ae...)

Albs zerg, hibbies _ALWAYS_ comes up from the behind (how!?) and middies charge and gladly die and port back as if it never happened.

Thats how it is, admit it or send me candy.
Love u all, even tho u have big teeth

FLAME AWAY U SILLY KNIGGITS!

albs don't have insta-aoe...

well nothing useful (we have a range 200 pbaoe insta-mezz on a rarely-used specline! rah!)

That honour is saved for the hibs and mids

emain is short for Emain Macha, a part of Ulster and also the extreme end of the hibernian frontier.

It happens to be the most popular RvR hotspot for running around like headless chickens/gank groups/zergs.

 

[vintervargen]

bredo, only take the first post into consideration, skip the others

Zerg = "I'm whining, ignore anything else I say."

One of the funniest things I've ever heard was when I asked my brother (level 42 Cleric) what the name of the Albion epic zone is and the reply was:

' Umm can't remember, think its Emain or something......yeah, Emain Macha'

 

[k9awya]

KRABBA

 

[old.tRoG]

How do you pronounce Emain, anyway?

Ee-Main is my best guess.

 

[k9awya]

E Main

together
