So where do assassins go these days?

[Jimmi]

Just wondering.

I've been stuck at brynja bridge for the last couple of weeks, getting farmed over and over by mid st zergs. I really can't find other places to MAYBE get some rp every now and then.

No I don't want to pour oil at mids and hibs.
No I don't want to operate siege equipment.
No I don't want to hammer at doors on towers.
No I don't want to go for the flames and the crossed swords.
No I don't want to add on random fights.
No I don't want to camp dropoff points.

Where does one go for those cool solo/duo fights?

I tried the docks in hibbieland, but they dont have a bridge that leads to the docks like bledmer has. I always end up aggroing guards from the tower a few meters from the docks. It's prolly ideal for rangers/hunters/scouts to camp there, but not for a assassin.

I tried brynja bridge at bled, but its always packed with stealthers and non stealthers. Can always be sure to die pretty quickly there.

I tried various bridges in hib... but omg they're really really empty. I tried camping around beno too... maybe 1-2 stealthers every hour. Really really boring.

Sometimes I get lucky, like last night. Down and the southernmost borderkeep in hibbieland, hibs were running out alone to get to the towers under siege. Got lots of nice solo fights there, and loads of rps... finally!

So where am I trying to get with this. I don't know. I'm just looking for places to get some decent solo fights... without having to follow the damn flames and crossed swords like all the other muppets. I really haven't been lucky since NF was released it seems.

So where do you guys - all assassins from all three realms - go?

i went to my house in meath, cooked a meal, fell asleep and never woke up anymore

 

[Skaven]

I would say where I and a few mates go, but it'll just end up being zerged by other stealthers so I won't

 

[Jimmi]

pm plz

 

[Salamurhaaja]

We go WoW m8

 

[Spamb0t]

err.. u go stand in the middle of some tower/keep under attack and the closest keep the enemy can port too.. what else.

 

[Kagato]

When you find out, let me know. Think last night was probably the shittiest yet for boring rvr.

 

[Worfen]

Dunno why, but it seems brynja has become NFs equivalent of AMG.. Kinda good to know where to go for action, too bad it's too much zerg action (no, not just mid zerg action, us albs are quite good at it aswell)...

 

[sweetleaf]

Seems going to the create character section and rolling scouts/rangers/hunters etc

I must see now 3 scouts to every assasin.

Only scouts? i see too many hunters aswell tbh only rangers that you don't see too often

 

[Whisperess]

I tried Beno docks a bit, and the bridge near it (can't remember name) - had a few decent fights until they brought friends. (no point with Brynja since everyone keep adding on whoever I attack)

After losing ~2100 life in 3-4 seconds vs. Dha (I should've looked up class before attacking) I can now be found on de_chateau

You gather more friends, then out number the enemy realms force, then go comment in a whine thread someone makes about xxxx realms stealthzergs after a few days.

Or you can roam around solo or something, rogue classes are usualy about patience, waiting for the right moment etc.

 

[Light]

thats the gay thing about NF the porting means no-one roams anymore, so unless u camp docks or run to the flames it can get fuking boring unless u wanna join the zerg fights .... zzzz

i noticed been jumped by a bard and a lvl46champion must have been a zerg action since after adds got us u emoted some crap 8) and u had certainly died if it wasnt cos teh adds 8)

(mb a fair fight is if i jump u solo with a bard xd)

uhm theres more roaming ppl now then it ever was before running to keeps under attack which they cant port to and such... but i guess being a hib i didnt get to attack all those hibs 'roaming' between ligen and emain before NF ;-(

and wtf is brynja. sounds like a fjortishangout where i live. (brynjan - dunno if its still around though ;p)

 

[Gesta]

I must be lucky cause I havent' seen a mid stealth zerg since NF, seen a few duos, only thing I ever see is a ridiculous amount of alb stealthers camping nged bridge, but if ya lucky you can pick the odd one off b4 one of his bumchums comes running to either land a stun or zephyr on you.
Portal keeps are good too, can pick off the odd straggler and hope that there isn't a stealth squad of albs about ready to either a) stun you or b) zephyr you (generally in that order).
Or head to a mid portal keep and pick off some stragglers there. As Jaem said patience is the only way unless you're an alb and just join a stealth squad.

ok sure ill go join the other million st'ers camping exactly the same route as its always very obvious where people will run from to a keep under attack - as i said i didn't want to join the zerg fights

but i guess being a hib i didnt get to attack all those hibs 'roaming' between ligen and emain before NF ;-(

I went and played my cleric aehaheahe, i sometimes pop out for guest speeches and opening care centres.

 

[Larc]

Go to the ancient lands of the east. Perhaps there you will find comfort. Or maybe, salvation.

i went and played Rome Total War .. cool game

In the few times I've logged on lately, theres been a stealthgroup(s) going around on all sides, but yeah, there is alot of albs going around MoS too see your fellow realm mates and know when to move along else where fun.

I think that brin bridge or most bridges are fair game for stealther fights, any docks, and also the route from nearest keep you can port to -> keep under attack. These are pretty much the only places you'll get "fair-ish" stealther fights without being nuked to hell and back in 2 seconds.

Not really much else stealthers can do, I do the occasional treb session, or I try and pee full groups off sometimes with Poison Mine + Vanish(which works when it feels like it - should be called Lucky-one-in-5-chance-it-might-work-RA).

There are other things you can also do - but tbh when I get bored - I play my bb shammy for a few goes, or go and craft.

After seeing what NF has to offer for an assassin, Miho went home to Torrylin and only occasionally leaves it to get some alchemy ingredients......

 

[[NO]Subedai]

with trying to solo as a zerk i find best place for solo'ers/duo's or stealthers is basically the Bridges/docks by a while. Prefably the alb docks but that wuldnt work for u though

 

[Adorith]

So you want regular fights in remote areas with no adds. That is, you need to find someplace where people go by every so often, solo, and with no stealthers around but where you can pick targets, get in position, and initiate combat.
Good luck finding any place like that.

The alternative would be roaming over bigger areas not quite as packed with enemies but where you can fight anyone you see or anyone who sees you.
Sounds to me like playing an invisible class isn't a good idea tbh, might want to try a visible class and take on the random stealthers.

Where does one go for those cool solo/duo fights?

So where do you guys - all assassins from all three realms - go?

Dont know, I run solo 80% of my online time... Dont know if I ever see any other players run solo or far from ads I always get assjammed by 3+ stealthers and some ML10 stealth buffed sorcs (albs).

And ofcorse there are some gimp SB duo/trios around that are easy rpts useally


I useally camp highways between keeps under seige etc. For example the other night we had Arvakr, then I camped between Arvakr and Vindsaul Faste - some solo stealthers ran by and some other gimps. Still got assjammed by a alb trio then gave up

Certainly died? even after FZ you two had barely scratched me and I still had all my RA's to use yet and thats without any of my artifacts even active.

And I emoted for doing such a poor job of double ganging a soloer even with FZ. No offense but it hardly deserved a /bow.

Camp beno again, I want a decent fight

just shows how clueless you are, if u expect the dmg output of a bard and a lvl46 semitoaed rr2 champ to kill u on fz duration xdd
adds saved you because u were going down since u simply f8ed the tank leaving me free to heal/dd till the skies turn red, and no emote of any kind was needed

poor sod.
