If only I could capture a vid of VGN killing FC, shame they are never 1fg.
Anytimes suck (especially if you're thrust), unless your target just stands there and spins like a top you never need them.Originally posted by old.mattshanes
To Fatality:
Do not use punctureit's like 0.30 growth rate :/
Maybe adjust quickbar to something like:
Sting/Peirce/Dual shadows/Flank/Shadow's Rain
Would do good damage if you land those styles often.

TBH, if you'e going to spec thrust at least learn to use positionals first, slash is much more forgiving of the spam anytimes thing.
I have landed a perfect mezz on you a few times and we still lost
comes down to how many savages have purge really, or if a healer purges then demezzes another healer then they both demezz the rest of the group. But you had a lot of PR's up and after sos/bof was out you turned the fight around and won. ) Originally posted by Jiggs
as i remember it u fought them straight after fighting us at the mill and u used all of your PRs/instants in that fight, and you aren't that tough when all that stuff is down (as we saw the other day

Oh, and its kinda funny when the Albs on Prydwen also express themselves about Albs on Excal

I understand that, becoz a fight obviously lasts longer, they are all tanks. In our case, we either kill fast or die Fast, so people think we are easy targets, but the truth is that we do kill full groups of both Midds and Hibbs, just seems that no1 acknowledges it. Anywayz, I'm not gonna blow my trumpet anymore. But we aren't easy targets, and I hoped our spammz would show that.

We have been jumped by ur group once and we had like 0 chance.
Assisting casters (rr10) kinda hurt :x
If u tried to hit one of em an ice wizard came, and if u went for clerics u were so f00ked!
Very nicely played tbh zoy
Caster groups can be very good but u need to get the jump mostly :/

Man you guys are picky
Do I need to remind you we only had 1 cleric, we did still kill vgn even if they did have a few low RR in there they still had some high RR's and used good tactics.
In the first fight, like Ali said 2 of the vgn group had seperated (prolly chasing us) they used ae str/con and we turned. Now if we had 2 savages in the group no doubt we would have killed the luri and the bard. You did notice that although the luri was our first target the bard purged, so hitting him as well was a good idea, plus a bard is very good at interupting me with insta dd/amnesia when I am trying to ae interupt a pbae circle.
So the luri dies, the bard is still alive but look fatal and konah both change target.
Then after killing vgn we get immediate mid adds, and you will notice our cleric is very low on power, hence when the hibs add as well I die quite fast.
Maybe the assisting isn't perfect either, but from a tanks perspective its easy to tell if the assist is bad. From a Shamans perspective its much harder to tell what the tanks are doing, for example the JH vs FC video:
First fight, only Poon and mumin hitting me, Sushii not assisting.
Looks like the shaman then breaks a mezz on strondor? Well Strondor wasn't casting and with Alithiel hitting the Shaman the last thing I would do is cast a DoT on a theurgist. He then runs up to strondor and uses his cheap insta pbae disease.
Nobody assist Sushii who is hitting the minstrel (the minstrel still dies very fast with just ONE savage attacking it).
Second fight good assisting from both sides, look how long FC tanks are hitting Exioce, compare it to how long it takes JH savages to kill me and the clerics and Strondor.
Fight vs the alb zerg, right away i see mumin hitting McPain a TANK, 2 secs later i see that tank dead with just ONE savage hitting it. Now you moan at us for poor assist and target selection, what can be worse that hitting a tank first by yourself !!!! But its ok he is a savage and kills him in under 5 seconds anyway.
Last fight, I can tell you that sushii chased me solo towards apk, meanwhile mumin is busy attacking Strondor. Next you see mumin and sushii on our minstrel, poon is hitting strondor. Don't say its becuase you were interupting, a skald can do that with one dd, a healer can do that with 1 insta haste debuff, a shaman can do that with 1 fart.
Anyway back to our video I think it makes a nice change to show a video where we lose a few members but still win the fight, unlike JH who just wtfpwn everything with their overpowered savages and barely take a scratch.
