The gauntlet is cast!

[Belomar]

Given that there seems to be a good chance that Prydwen and Excalibur are clustered in the future, I see a big challenge coming up for all Prydwen RvR guilds and groups. Now, all of a sudden, you will get to compete with and against the flower of Excalibur, guilds and groups that are eager to show that the myth of Prydwen RvR being superior to Excalibur RvR is just that, a myth. What is your guild doing to prepare for this, and how will you face this challenge? Will you taking back some old-timers who return because of the clustering? Buff up your own ranks? Change your setup?

We already know Prydwen runns the best RvR guilds in the whole game. No guild on EU stand a chance. Theres 4 or 5 guilds on US which could put up some resistance.

Thats how it used to be atleast. Have no idea how many that quit playing after me.

 

[Belomar]

How do we already know this? We don't. Clustering will help answer this question, at least for the two English servers.

I think in the past Prydwen ran some of the best groups, but currently I think they are quite far behind some other server's roxxorgrps.

 

[Conjurus]

Dont want to say this but i agree with ilum :<

The glory days of pryd guilds are long gone.

 

[Martok]

the old timers are returning the guilds are reforming.....

The hot iron fordge pumping out fresh new amour and getting ready to battle its largest battle yet againts its fellow players of the other servers!!!!

May the battles commence!! and teh zerg farming begin

 

[Jupiter]

people whined about not getting enough opposition, now what will they whine about? ZERG's, if they cluster excal & pryd imagine what Bryjna bridge will be like, atm with our low pop server we have 2-5fgs camping there, couple this with excal and it will be mayhem... as for the "glory days & glory groups" whatever, Pele was a greatest soccer player of his generation but put Pele in the modern arena and he would be classed as an average player...

100% agreed, prydwen used to be the top of the pop, but has fallen behind, quite far tbh by now.

aye it has as have the mids and hibs no offence great fights but we have become accustom to our fg vs fg area's!!! yes there will be zerg whine but its time to pull the old guild and the new rvr guild out of the ashes and get them ready for teh feirce battles that lie ahead.

 

[Dwali]

there will be 1 guild on excal that will be hard to kill...and thats Nolby Pride...from pryd...so u all know how hard they where on hib/pryd...now there mid/excal

 

[boppas]

Most of the NP crew that ran in there opt setup went to WoW afaik?

 

[Invisibul]

tbh ownage gg's or not, if GOA did cluster pryd/excal it'd bring me back to daoc 100%, there's bound to be good rvr to be had, as I see it, it can only be a good thing. The Alb zerg shall be feared again!!!

so AoD r coming back, thought dem zerg monkeys left for good...... /whistles to himself and gets his fishing net ready

 

[sneakies]

sounds like it should be fun.

and on the brightside, it could result in an end to the whine regarding underpop bonus'

And importantly for us hibs... we will have enough guilds to keep all our keeps and towers claimed /o/

 

[Belomar]

AFAIK, Nolby Pride were Mid/Excal before they were Hib/Pryd.

Well, there sure aren't any good alb groups left, compared to what they used to be anyway.

people whined about not getting enough opposition, now what will they whine about? ZERG's, if they cluster excal & pryd imagine what Bryjna bridge will be like, atm with our low pop server we have 2-5fgs camping there, couple this with excal and it will be mayhem... as for the "glory days & glory groups" whatever, Pele was a greatest soccer player of his generation but put Pele in the modern arena and he would be classed as an average player...

It's mostly mids at brynja tho, and if we'd get clustered the alb population should increase more than the mid population (afaik, quite some more albs than mids on excal, tho I'm not sure bout active rvr pop there etc ~) and thus the mids camping there would get some more competition :<

btw how do u cast a gauntlet, u could throw down a gauntlet, take a gauntlet, cast a die, dunno wtf is cast a gauntlet....

 

[Iceforge]

AFAIK, Nolby Pride were Mid/Excal before they were Hib/Pryd.

100% correct, they started up mid/exc and the hib/pryd was never more than just some random fun, atleast thats how I understood it on their webpage, what they do now I have no idea, would be fun for them to come back through, having "semi-opted" groups on 2 realms (Hib and Mid) they could switch around, depending on which realm would give the most entertaining fights?

Its going to be very busy .... just hope we can make to the docks at byrnga bridge ...

actually what i always found strange was where the placed the docks at beno and bled compared to crauch (ie both have to cross the bridge to get to), but that would give u lot something else to whine about..... fishing is bad today

gauntlets and such can be cast, ie the guantlet was cast down at my feet i rose to meet the challenge? is functional to say it in english if somewhat of an old word :>

Combine the two, what do you get? A challenge, and an irrevocable decision.
