Ok, i am new in rvr, but i cant understand why people call if someone helps to someone as add ? I mean , he helped to his realmmate, didnt he ?
I've been played with few pvp MMOs so far (and daoc is very lay handed after them), but never saw people call zerg when like 16 ppl ran around. Its not zerg, its coordinated attack (we are in war, as far as i know), and if somone dies from them, shrug, its his problem. After all, the main reason why ppl out (beside fun, and conquering keeps), its the RP.
Ohh, one more tought about "add". Once, when i was really newb to mmos and etc, i got into a very organized guild. We were low numbered (20-30 ppl online), but in battles we were very organized, and we even won 2:1 battles. SO, once one of my guildmate fought with someone 1v1, i thought he is ok, and didnt interfere - after that i was almost kicked out from the guild cause i didnt help to him (brothers in arms..).
I just wrote this as from another point of view.
Ahh, an aftertought, its war, and i learned in war there is no clean tactic and etc... becase only one thing matters, who will hit the floor and who will stand.

As always lastnight we tried to ran FG and not to add on fights. That went pretty fine; except for Warlocks (as they deserved to be added on from).

But yeah, we had, i think, 2x FG vs FG with you basically, one fight it was over very quickly and the other fight you referring too we got adds in the end; fight lasted eons (our only dps where Suo and me pretty much as Nuppu chaininterrupted by the reaver in your FG) and i think you both your clerics used BoF and atleast 2xdemo from your light-tanks ===> fight will last long.

Was nice fight regardless and i think we deserved that win too :)
1st fight was when you /hug me?

Well, we didnt have much more dps as well cause Straef were grappled during all time :D and we had 1 BoF fired only, but we had 3 clerics, cause couldnt get any dmg dealer to last spot and just a bit earlier we had 1 cleric only so wanted to even the heal department. :D And you didnt deserve it tbh, cause you began to die (Nuppu and warden who was bging him) when Jamie's added ;)

But its not true. They are way far from coordinated. Most of the times they are solo/duo/trio ppl together in a 16-24. Actually if they arent warlocks with purge 3, they are easier to kill (maybe longer) than a semi decent fg.

i think when a stealther adds on someone they get called a leecher, when a fg steamrolls a 1v1 stealth fight no one seems to make a big deal of it

imo i think fuck it, why should i have a nice 1on1 fight for a fg to hit teh guy once and reduce my 900rp to 100ish. i see rvr as war, if you see someone you kill em, in a 1v1 situation i may throw a stun in as it dont leech xp (im a mincer) to help the guy but leave them to fight.

if a fg is fighting another one i may creep round the back and aoe mezz, maybe feck their healer up..yes thats leeching but its also help.
I have only done this a few times but once but i saw a kupo group (does not matetr which grp) aoe mezzed so i managed to demezz the ppl with purge down.

us ppl who dont get uber groups need to make rp's and when you get your fights ruined it has a "cause and effect" affect.

the fg's should stop whining about things like this. you make 50k in 1 night or whatever it is you make where as we solo ppl do not. in a way its like saying "mummy my gold is not shiny enough" not realising what you have.

QQ me all you want im sure some people may agree with me on this

btw Aran i borrowed bowmaiden for 30 minutes and ran into you :)
Finaly thought i'd have a 1v1 with your and another scout(+zerg behind) added :( At least you got away :)

Well i have enough trouble with a one on one, let alone when 2+ scouts decide to join in, nothing i can do in that situation apart from run.
Spotted you and replied the emote later after you got run over by a FG.

If i saw Bubble then i would be tempted to add, just for fun as 15rp's isnt really worth it. <grin>

i generally try not to add on fights of 8 v 8, tho i may stand around and wait for the inevitable adder that i can then fight against for my own fun, the crazy thing is, when i attack the scout/ranger that adds i quite often get a ffs noob dont add thrown my way.

i had a nice experience last nite tho where when fighting puppet we got left alone til we finished fighting, and as it would happen while we had witnesses i won :D (only to be hammered 5 mins later but that wasnt seen) but i would assume that was cos of puppets fame as opposed to them leavin us cos it is the done thing.
however after all this rant (gettin longer than it was meant to now) there are some fg's i will add on now as they never show me the same respect of not adding.
but the same goes for some stealthers, to some peeps i wouldnt attack cos i respect them for soloing and i know they do the same for me and some i will just add away on cos i know they will do the same for me also.
its just a case of trying to learn who adds and who doesnt and trying to adjust who u add on accordingly.

hope that is clearer to u lot than it is me btw :p

shame you didnt mention your ingame name, otherwise i'd be sure to yell "dont kill him ffs" on ventrilo in case our grp saw u fighting ;)

if its the fight our grp (mostly kupo flux) was watching, i can tell you puppet wasn't the reason for not adding. policy in the grp kinda was to not add on any fights, but at least i personally had very hard time following it just because puppet was involved, so many good fights he has ruined :p

Only useful thing was Jamie slamming you so you died abit faster; I had charge up again tho (got charge3) so you would have died anyhow. And yeah we ran at a certain time with 3 grapplers (Peyson played by Xxcal, Gaio and Suo) but both Gaio and Suo barely grappled.

Anyhow if we shorted out your dps Im sure we deserved the win :D Also Manisch running from his BG and firing SoI on the wrong time (during the time he MOC'ed and was BG'ed Oo) and his own pet on defensive (granny) who was whole fight on me and broke the quickcast root from Manisch by his own pet = we deserve to win tbh :

Would've deserved to win if that voriid guy and some others didn't strafe like madmen ;x Apart from that I enjoyed the fight, but not being able to touch someone even when facing is silly ;/ Didn't really enjoy the perma-bg on the bainshee either :p

usually go by past experiences with the person on wether to add or not if they repeatedly do it to me will get same back others who dont i wont touch( /hugs goree and co at beno docks other night xD).
As for fgs usually depends who in it most time not that interested as yields low rps per kill but then if one of ppl mentioned b4 in it then they may be reason enough to add :>

Hmm, Jamie didnt touch me tho, just a lvl 48 menta, but he/she hit hard :> Other clerics and theu got adds (some of them maybe not even been lvl 50 tho ;) ) Our communication were crap, due to TS was a bit zzz, so like half of the grp left it xD Here is our chat during that fight (altered the names, maybe others dont wanna be famous xD ):

3,0,[Party] Killerbee: "I should get 512mb more and a better card than mx420 :p"
3,0,[Party] grpmember1: "m ;x"
3,0,[Party] Killerbee: "CM"
3,0,[Party] Killerbee: "slammed"
3,0,[Party] Killerbee: "CM"
3,0,[Party] grpmember2: "OOP"
3,0,[Party] grpmember3: "M"
2,0,Septina sends, "omg, she called it an ugly teddy :<"
3,0,[Party] grpmember1: "fuck grapple"
3,0,[Party] grpmember4: "m"
3,0,[Party] grpmember5: "m"
3,0,[Party] grpmember6: "oom"
3,0,[Party] grpmember5: "addds"
2,0,You send, ":<<<<<<" to Septina
3,0,[Party] Killerbee: "yeah, adds killed us tbh"
3,0,[Party] grpmember1: ";x"
3,0,[Party] grpmember3: "Jamie alwayssolowithhisfriendskjukju"
3,0,[Party] Killerbee: "was a nice fight actually"
3,0,[Party] grpmember5: "aye"
3,0,[Party] grpmember5: "fucking bainshee + bg'er though who was chain grappling me :|"
3,0,[Party] grpmember2: "getting tired cant focus probebly hehe"
3,0,[Party] grpmember6: "beside of the fucking unrootable vamp"
3,0,[Party] grpmember1: "mjeh"
3,0,[Party] grpmember6: "we were lucky there not being buttfucked by mids"

I cant comment Manisch work as I was busy with shearing and healing, he was quick with demezz. Usually running with Littles/Roadie.

Anyway, as I said it was a nice fight, after one like this I dont complain if we die. Miracle we didnt get adds earlier tho. ;)

Whats your point of view on this, if your a solo stealth and you get ganked while fighting with another stealther by a FG, do you feel you have the right and honour to attack them while they are fighting 8v9? Do you run in a group of 8 and feel anything gos, your in a RvR zone, expect to die if caught. Or are you the type who like 8v8 battles and hate people adding.


Personally speaking I very rarely add on a fg fight. After having Legacy add on my fights last night with their fg 3+ times they got me adding on them back cos tbh fg's zerging a fight or me being popped by some tosser infront of a fg who then just insta kill you gets rather annoying when its every 10mins. So anyway, added once on fg last night but only after being provoked => they lose their eld mid fight, though they were just raping some random albs so was no real loss i think :p


Aran Thule said:
One thing that is annoying is when your stalking a target, get into position, draw your bow, and suddenly a FG charges over the hill and inst kills them.

I actually laughed when I read that since you were doing a very good job of trying to pop me for a fg last night (which you blatently knew was there as they were following you :p). /hug the mids that attacked them so I could get away o/
