who needs masses of people

yesterday 5-6 of us took 2 towers in mid and blasted a hole inside blendrake, with some assistance later we now have DF for the first time since NF release and we have a place in mid to port to :p

it all comes down to taking initiative :)

Vf is right.. Its all about taking the first step imo. Who says we cant take alb relics etc? I mean.. Back the time when mid took one of our power relics and gave it to the albs.. We just decided in CF /as that we would go take it back in 30 min... and so we did. And the albs where afaik just as many then as they are now :)
Maybe we could use their ignorance regarding the relic gate system to get em :flame:

Very nice going VF btw :D Do we still have the keeps?

hmm damn i dont have the yesterday log when i make a /who all found 200+- matches then i do a /who ranger and i found 62 matches :puke:

well imo leave all your rangers back to where they belong :kissit: and play again with your normal chars then we will have stronger force to hit the Mids and those damn Albs (damn i cant say that they only know to zerg cause now all just zerg :( )

P.S.
Plz dont tell me u was playing with rangers before NF my main is a ranger and i see 10K new rangers every day :p

All the Fotm rangers is a big part off why i am leaving actually. Indirectly though. Its kinda NF's fault that every noob can get rr5 in 4weeks as a ranger. Where we, old school rangers, had to fight the good fight for months, some even years to get where we are. TOA made a big diff aswell though. after toa rps started rolling in for the lowbies aswell with all the new leechtools etc...

Oh well ...just me QQ'ing

Ive been doing quite well in most of the runs Ive done in the last 3 weeks ...dont die and by the time the run is over we have taken a keep/tower and killed a fg or 2 at least ..

ranger is fotm but that will die down and it will go back to people who played rangers pre fotm like gray etc..

the one thing I will say is im an optimist ..generally the glass is half full to me but...in the last few days, even winning the battles etc ..just seems like the game is lost now..

Even though we have a reasonable population on, I dont recognise many of the names and most of the people I knew have left due to the usual whine .
I really thing mythic have backed themselves against a wall here because Daoc aint the superpower of mmorpg it was pre and just after SI ...
I can see it even if I dont want it to happen , people will go to wow ..

I dont just mean the people that have said 'yes im going to wow' - I mean the people who havent , or who say they wont ..the majority are going to go wow as the game is getting worse as we go along, maybe not the game play but the visible lack of major players in DL etc ..the spams of 'im hanging up my cloak threads' etc ..

Infact .. i dont know where im going with this post as its been said 100 times b4 so I will leave but on major point is this ...I dont get owned anymore , Fair enough i play my class well and my gear is a good standard but I should still get WTFPWNT sometimes and I dont - the reason being is because all the good albs and mids or the majority of them have gone and therefor so has the challenge ..imo ..

some agree with me others dont - dont mean to offend - just a p.o view

Assisting archers is one of best ways to slowly kill of enemy zergs, with constant preassure on their rezzers and keeping them at range.

Archers arent really leechers on our realm in NF, they very powerfull alone and with zergs.

I kinda hate them though :p
atlantis and NF made them way too good both melee and range same time.
Their new toys make us assassins bit out-dated :/

I know topic wasnt on rangers but it got brought up (again).

Well, I've been having fun in NF thusfar. I'm not one for keeptakes or standoffs though because as a healer/resser it's quite.. zzzzz.. more fun to have a little organisation rather than have everyone rp horny on the first person in range they can find.
So I've been roaming around fights a lot with my guild and doing quite ok, killing the occasional fg's, taking out parts of the zerg (usually take down at least 2 fg before going down ourselves).
There are plenty of negative things about NF:
- hard to find fg fights, so have to try and lure from zergs or face zergs sometimes..
- everyone and their dog leeches on zergs so even if you do manage to kill like 3 fgs, they get more rps for you than you from them which is a bit odd because i'd like to think that you'd get rewarded for facing overwhelming odds..
- hard to protect groupmembers from archers nowadays. make bg work against arrows, or remove pentetrating arrow so i can use pbt again with the idea that it's useful (archers only had problems with it because they didn't assist and used the slowest bows for big damage (and no rapid fire back then), now all they do is assist .. bit weird imo)
There's also a lot of positive things about it:
- You know where fights are and roughly how big they are. Some see this as negative but when you have a fight you're almost certain more people will be around there shortly because of the swords on the map. You can see big engagements and avoid them or patrol around them to lure from the zerg or get other groups inc to help.
- The perfect group syndrome doesn't seem as prevalent as before (not once have i been asked 'got bg?'. Now this can be because there's not much wardens around these days and any is better than none. But personally i think the chances of meeting another perfect group of an opposing realm has been decreased so that means people don't feel forced to have their own perfect group anymore. (in emain you would just get killed and killed and killed by another perfect group)
- Porting, no longer taking 10 minute walks is great although it somehow got compensated by taking longer to find a nice fight. but everyone can be equal now.

Anyway, i'll stick around for a bit. I still have a lot of fun with my friends and i believe i'll continue to do so for a while still (ps: you don't need a perfect toa template to rvr, i've got 0% cold resist, 3 lvl 10 arti's (egg, spear and zahur), lvl 0 gov, lvl 3 sash.. so a bit gimped on all fronts really so things could be a lot better but you don't necessarily need it to have fun (for other classes this might be less valid though))

Ok, now i really need to get back to work ;)

Cya and have fun!

That's because you rock though Thana. Best warden ever! :wub:

Seriously, on the template thing I guess it depends on your class. As a caster I get nuked a *lot* so having high resists is important to me (all 25%+ except matter at 15% ;>).
