With all the complaints of lack of solo action
How many would be interested if this was to be started up again?

There would be no rules other than you cant engage a person already in combat, after that they are free game unlike the previous attempt which i personally felt removed all the "risk" involved and keep the combat as "natural" as possible.

not for me at least, think im some kind of masochist who enjoys being zerged now and then, because duels without risk of adds are too artificial and boring for me.

ofcourse it would be nice to visit occasionally, but it's too hard to keep it going for those occasional visits. correct me if im wrong, but didnt the other zone die out because of this problem too? if its not, then ofcourse it would be a great idea. especially for the visuals.

....or just give irvr in some realm and let all soloers go to the realm irvr isn't in ;)

actually- on some US servers the lake in agramon is sort of a designated place for soloers to go to, i think it's a pretty nice idea. too far for random leechgroups to grief around (i hope), but downside is that some of those soloers will add on fg fights in agramon and in return the fg's will kill soloers going to lake. ;/

duels are boring, for higher rr's and mainly pointless vs several of the tanks doing it

erhm...chronic, we kinda have a zone allready:p There is a reason for that its not working out obviuosly. We been trying in two different stages to start it up now. Its still running....but the turn up is low indeed. It just wont work. People wanna go around the crowded areas obviously and then whine on adds etc...it seems to be the nature of the game. Like vodka said, some likes the action around but still dont like adds:p
You can start another one uo if you like..but trust me...is the zone gahn started up with forum and all wont work...another one wont either( even though i wish i would have...). I prefered the zone in front of all the bitching around crau tbh...and we had great fun there at times. I must say rvr been on a all time low atm...and im seriously thinking of retiring hero if it doesnt get better. But either getting zerged or standing in a circle outside of crau and have duel every 2 hours is getting on my nerves...
over and out..

Starlight lake is pretty good if Agramon is quiet, on Devon though some FG's (*cough*) passing through or going to find action in Agramon used to make a point of clearing the soloers out of there. Best place for a solo area that I have found is in front on a relic gate somewhere. Take along some bots so you dont have to run there everytime, et voila. It would only really be good for 'arranged' duels though, too far to run for a FFA type duel area.

The best thing for ya to do is go Agramon, Devon cluster and Merlin cluster no groups go agramon but soloers do, they go to mid side of agramon near the broken tower at the lake was pretty fun tbh alot of soloers went their, i suggest you do this hear, agramon is a big place and would be great for teh soloers.

so lovely...we see yet again that a lot of people seems to want a zone. Then why the heck doesnt anyone turn up when you have one???
Stop voting yes if you cant work for one imo. We had 7 pages of registred people in the forum gahn put up, and how many showed from those, maybe 10% tops. Great:p
It also showed a great hypocrisy imo, many people claimed it was all for the fight itself and the honor from it etc. Even then everyone stand and duel close to the bridges! yehaaa. Great choise if you want an add free fight. If you dont care an ounce of the rps and just want straight fights...why dont go to the zone?
Please someone give me a good answer to that. And i know some poeple like the excitemrnt of extra adds and comotion around them. So do i...but then again i dont abuse or whine at others when that happend either. So i want an answer for the poeple that do whine and abuse and jst care about the fight itself. Why not use the zone?
over and out..

Ur making a good point gamah, but i really tried to advertise it with two big threads not long ago..and many answered that and registred, but maybe it wasnt enough...dunno.
We will see what happened. Im tired of wasting a lot of my time to try and make it work, espcially when i see there seem to be a huge intrest for it and no one shows up....

how about you fuck off? if by "leetboys" you mean someone that doesn't find fighting 1 person with 100 friends fun then yeah sure. Now isn't there a fucking bridge missing your rogs somewhere?

No means that 'leetboys' doesn't like to fight the same kind of oppenent over and over again, in other words we want variation, unlike some certain rp-whores who just want to zerg and add over and over again.

This post just shows how elitist YOU are for being just so plain moronic about people who would like to enhance their alternative gameplay experience. So what if they want to play differently, hell they're even trying to move out of the way so it doesn't disrupt others gamestyle, what more do you want?

Despite that I'd love an add free environment as a rr3 ns, the pleasure and joy killing an rr4 scout in a stealthgroup is great :)

imo givf a solo caster zone too (without warlocks bonedancers)
hardly ever see a caster solo and when i do solo (rare cases yes facking whiners)

i find myself vs 3 casters + di bot or random tanks + random casters + random stealthers vs me xD would be hard to make a /bow duel indeed

but oh well givf some thoughts about it how could it be a duel caster vs caster :eek:

solo fights are fun, but I think it worked better when it was just a "people tend to solo around boldiam" sort of agreement - you still had the randomness of a vampiir turning up with his 3 pals or fgs hunting soloers but it was still better than around the big action zone.

The agramon idea might work... I'm sure if people add or don't add on the fgs who go there they'll get recognised or the like. Of course it also gives you a nice bit of a challenge to get past the fgs there too ;)

thats the vision or dream i had when the solo zone was opened first time..in beginning when it was on top it was around 20 solers around at same time, was also quite cool, but would have been nice with 50ish in numbers:)
