Hi, seems like a lot of people have no clue about which siege equipment to use where, so here's a short overview:
trebuches > wall pieces
- treb on a tower next to a central keep to blast a hole in it
- field treb to blast a hole in a keep or destroy a tower (makes hookpoints unavailable, oil etc)
catapults > people
-greek fire / ice balls for strong damage, stone shot for large radius medium damage
palintones / ballistas > siege equipment
- field ballista is nice to kill palintones on towers/keeps with, or destroy oil pots
- palintone on a tower/keep is nice to destroy any kind of siege equipment
rams > gates (duh)
- can combine up to 3 rams to one big one
sooo,, next time you wanna put some omglolzbigasstrebuchet down, do it where its supposed to be done, and not like i've seen earlier today:
on a tower to try and destroy a trebuchet punching a hole in the keep (use a palintone instead.), or
put a trebuchet on a tower MILES off anything remotely close to a keep or other tower
