Tbh ... If you albs really think there is honor in doing a raid at that time ,... well ...

Lets just say, there is a REASON for EVERYONE on mid always talking about "stupid albs".

The only thing you guys can do is ZERG... Yes ... The new name of Albion should be ZERGION ... Hibs and Mids DO conduct the game with honor.

But thinking there is skills in taking a relic from a keep where there is no ppl online to mount a proper defence ? WHERE is the honor in that ----> :eek7: <----

Just take a good look at yerself ... WE took one of the POWERRELICS and GAVE it to you guys ... PRIME TIME... And HOW long could u hold on to it .... pft ...

The only thing u can do is ZERG. OR if outnumbered just use SoS ... IMHO you guys Suck. Sorry to say it but thats the way i feal.

And to those saying "good work albs" and "Grats to relic" ... are u totaly insane? .... bah :/
stfu noob hahaha

Sorry, I just realised my incredibly stupid mistake...as long as it's NEARLY prime time, it's okay.
D'uh...
How could I be so stupid!
:kissit:

Gasoline, every single post you make you surpass yourself and somehow make yourself look even . Wittor was talking about the last Relic Raid on the strength relics, led by herbal which was primetime. Only for you gay middies to take em back at about 7 am on a sunday morning.

The raid started at 12 UK time on a weekend and there was about 1600 online when it STARTED so QQ more mids you lame naabs, dont even try to come up with an early excuse for ur next raid at 7am.

Its true, in fact it probably started a little earlier than that with groups moving out from atk. Its not albs fault the 126 SB's at amg didnt see us go through and move towards uppland is it.

Here here....like I already pointed out, we at least let the realm concerned know that we're there. We may not be so sad as to have 7 RvR guilds out and about at that time of morning (yes, I mean morning...if that's primetime, then so was the 7am raid you're so resentful of, so stfu), so we had absolutely NO chance to defend. If you didn't know, Hibs tried an all-out attack on Mjollner yesterday, and at least gave Midgard a warning...
:touch:

no but you have 300 mids sad enough to wake up at 5 am to take the relics. Which is sadder??

56 albs staying awake until midnight saturday night

or

300 mids getting up at 5 am on a sunday morning?

Gasoline, stop typing now cos everything you type is just plain BS and you are making yourself look silly

It never ceases to amaze me how after every rr there are whine threads at forums. Everyone has done alarmclock raids, everyone has raided at night time, nobodys is clean. So why whine? It's a 24 hour game, live with it.

Grats albs, we will get it back, of course.

Ahh, yes. How true. Whereas at the same time, everyone in Albion keeps talking about "clever Mids", you think? You don't have to be Einstein to understand that a game like this breeds a certain degree of animosity between the opposing realms.

The only thing you guys can do is ZERG... Yes ... The new name of Albion should be ZERGION ... Hibs and Mids DO conduct the game with honor.
Someone quick give this guy his pacifier back, he spat it out somewhere around here! Oh, and note that this relic raid was based on the opposite of zerging--holding the aggro on uber guards with a small but determined force--so your argument here doesn't hold much water, I'm afraid.

But thinking there is skills in taking a relic from a keep where there is no ppl online to mount a proper defence ? WHERE is the honor in that ----> :eek7: <----
This is the basis of every successful relic raid--if you have defenders in the relic keep, you are more or less screwed in the current state of the game.

The only thing u can do is ZERG. OR if outnumbered just use SoS ... IMHO you guys Suck. Sorry to say it but thats the way i feal.
Oh, I'm sure a lot of people care about how you feel.

So it was Albion that stole my alarmclocks last weekened!!!! ARGH!!!

Nevermind :) It was a nice and clean raid for sure, doesn't matter if Albion would have raided us at 22:00cet with the same tactic.. we wouldn't have noticed, since noone checks mjollnir if there isn't a guard spam. The same tactic on Excalibur won't work since albs are passing that keep all the time.

Well done Albion! :cheers:

Bring on the New Frontiers! :drink:

I have mixed feelings.
Glad that the relic is back, and I actually find the way in which it was done very nice.
Sad it was not primetime.
But the way Aussie took the relic deserves plenty of credit, along with those that helped.
Regards, Glottis

Congratulations to a nice raid albs, I hope you will defend better than the last weekend. We did it unto you and you did the same unto us, there is no excuse for mids to whine on this one.

TBH, this raid is the ultimate wusses option. Even now, with Artifacts, MLs, and various other things, you have to resort to going about a relic raid to make sure nobody knew you were there...
When this 7am Relic Raid happened, SI had only been out for a couple of months...people may well have still been using Lair chain drops for their characters...

I can see the link though..
Albs zerg...
Albs are, therefore, wusses...

Albs take a relic without even LETTING the other side know you're there (we're not so sad as to camp our relic keep 24/7)
Albs are, therefore, wusses...


And before you start throwing it back in my face about the 7am alarm clock raid, albs started alarm clock raids before Mids...
And even with all this smarmy new ToA gear, you're still scared you might have your cover blown?!
If you're scared of others, I'm sure GOA could provide free "apparently reply within 2 working days counselling service..."
Or you could come up with a tactic where you're not looked upon as wusses...
:fluffle:

Jesus Christ you can throw toys a long way from your pram!

The tactics I tested this week on the empty relics worked but were not very effective. The new tactic came from hrae/katt, not from me. Also the idea to organise one didn't come from me but from Laaken. Except from sending 7pm to the GMs and explaining the tactic in battlegroup I had a very small roll in this raid.

lol, this post is comedy gold :D

the only one totally insane are you, because mids did a 6 am raid in the first place to take str relics back and albs tried to take it back primetime almost every day with the server crashing almost every day because of it

looking at honour regarding rr's, albs are way WAY above your level.. not to speak of iq

Come on ffs its SATURDAY, there was 1600!!!!! online on excal when raid started. Very reasonable imo.

Yes. Usually I agree with Nol (COZ he's my heroo!!!!!111!), but in this case I can't. First up, the bad thing about alarmclock raids is that they're deliberately designed to ensure you have an overwhealming numerical advantage - 200 Mids (it was 200, not 300 as has been widely claimed in this thread) vs a total of 27 level 50 albs in the case of the last Mid alarmclock raid.
Secondly, 1600 is a decent enough server population. It is, after all, pretty much what Prydwen has at primetime!
But late raids aren't as good as primetime ones, imho.

Its strange that you dont see the problem about a raid like this, Its not prime time but its not a allarm clock. But that dos not mather, the prob is that no mather hove many albs/hibs/mids was online no guards was killed so mids could not know there was a relic raid. Its smart by Aussie, but it should not be posible imo.

Shouldn't be possible but it is and they used it. Good tactics.

Probably come back at 8pm GMT today to take the other two :)

ooh I'd love to read the whine then!

The point JPEG is not so much 300 mids doing an alarm clock raid...its a RR when ALL are welcome, irrespective of class, guild, race or ability

I think if you've read many of my posts you know I'm very anti-elitist, and I would love to have relic raids where all can take part. But unfortunately, there's simply too many people around in all realms who think it's ok to spy for that to happen.

Good job Aussie & rest of you...

When we zerg it with 5OO+ every mid/hib says to use tactics...do it with 4-5 fg...and they say the same...so conclusion for me...who cares tbh

The game is 24/24....but 00.00 - 02.00 on a saturday is very much primetime tbh...certainly on excal.

Of course relics will change hands again...but thats what the game is about...not to have a relic for 2 years non-stop....so have fun getting it back...go for some pow relics mids...hibs go for some str ones etc...

Game would be more fun when relics change hands every x weeks tbh...not every 6 months.

It's ABSOLUTELY NOT a FoTM Raid that exludes so many of your OWN people from having fun.


Is it possible that the Albs have forgotten the point of the game is for ALL to have FUN? or have the Albs got so suckily elite that the rules of fair play no longer apply to them?

FoTM Raids with 50 people ? You can stick that where the sun doesn't shine..give me a 300 person raid every time (as long as it's after 7am and before 1am)

mmkay

Last time alb successfully relic raided midgard it was with 500 people and at primetime. Albion then got flamed by midgard for a month or so for bringing to much people. Some silly midgard twat decided to take them back with an alarmclok raid.
Albion then brought big zergs to odin's for about a week, albion was also flamed for this due to bringing to much people.
Recently albion failed a relic raid on hibernia, due to spies and beeing spotted. Albion was then taunted for bringing to much people and beeing spotted.

Now albioin took back the relics of peaktime with some 50 people(?) now albion is getting flamed for not brining enough people and not make sure they were spotted.

Personally I'd prefer big zerg wars during relic raids but.
A. Midgard just takes em back with alarmclocks anyway.
B. Server crashes.
C. I hate shrooms.

Mythic just should remove relics all together they're doing nothing for the game anyways.


P.S This Gasoline guy makes me laugh.

Seems to me Albs invent gay,gimp ways to avoid a good scrap?

I think you mean that Albs use their brains to work out ways to get your relics, and you whine. And when we use our numbers to get your relics, you whine. Spot a pattern emerging here?

Fact is still that there is no fun in taking or defending...

albs are human bots or so ? i dunno tbh...

but then again comments from belomar & judas would be " u don't have addictive kids who check relic keep every 20 mins? no im srry only that kind of ppl live in albion"

oh well grats, we will get it back and u all know it so that explains why albs are so bitter :fluffle:

every realm has unique abilities that are usually considered lame when used in RRs:
- 3 stealth classes (2 with climb wall)
- GTAOE in a popular specline
- outnumbering the enemy
- Shrooms
- Paladins holding aggro
- SoS to break through blockades
- etc

You can argue about the time (was definitely not what I consider an alarm clock raid - maybe a bit off-primetime though) but you cannot argue about the tactics: every realm will and should always use what works best for them. And I prefer such a relic raid over a 400 people raid that crashes the server any day.

As for mids threatening to take power relics: go ahead ;) I am sure you can take them (as proven 1 week ago) but expect 150+ hibs with 30+ animists at Grallahorn within a couple of days and I guarantee you the power relic is not so easy to defend than the strength one.

They whine and bitch when it happened to them, now they do it they think its 1337 !!!!!

Well its what we wanted, you didnt give a toss about the free str relic we gave you, so we will see how well you defend this. Bring your normal emain zerg to HW and then we can see how you defend your relics.

TBH albs couldnt organise a decent ac group without bitching and whining.

Well done :worthy:

Nothing wrong in making a Alarm clock raid, but i would expect a full blow midgard revenge anyday soon.

And tbh the cg setup was filled with panic, first they weree saying go odins block amg asap, well if im not mistaken if the atk was used the relic would have past amg at the time ppl started to gather svasud.
And after afew minutes they started to say go HW to take it back fast, well good luck prolyl enuff albies in fort sauvage to defend it against a unplanned relic take.

IMO
Albs did good and deserve a :clap: :clap:
Altho I would like to see them do a raid like this around 15.00CET on a Sunday :wij:
