You suck Enledar! xD



Aye I read a thread about AoD leaving a solo cleric to die vs jammiesmallicus in the albion frontier the other day, seemed like every single alb adored them for being nice friendly and non-elitists judging from that thread.

Regardless of that, best in my book = best teamwork and hardest enemies to beat, not someone who's friendly but suck at RvR, ie. PE is best alb/pryd ever could present. (Sotl were obviously best grp of all on the server, for their time :) )

not really on the topic of the thread but anyway IIRC SOTL and to a lesser extent PE were at one time as popular with other albs as finding a wart on the end of ur knob - l337ism in DAOC was generally a direct function of who reached high lvl first and still is - first necros got los abuse, first reavers got stacking TWF etc etc - casual players and those who want fun without playing 24/7 are usually hit by the nerfs

[qutoe Elendar] didn't really see any coherent alb grps out
kind of sums up the whole thread - as i speak hibs have zerged the whole of the north of alb, camped bold docks to gank ppl wanting to get to the action and ubeh intelligent mids have taken a Hurb tower so albs can't port anywhere not many albs gonna spend 20 minutes trying to reach a shroom field assuming they can get past the stealthers :(

AoD were Albions best GG, and only ever ran 1 fg - every feckin alb can tell you that, hibs like u will qq cause you died to them so many times. adds ? nothing to do with AoD. zerg ? tell me one grp that hasnt.

LoL another idiot thinking the word "best" only applys to how many feckin RPs u got - get a clue

Just maybe the definition of best could also mean attitude to the game and your fellow players, having a down to earth, non elitist approach and being liked and respected by your fellow albions ?

In this respect AoD were leagues above the rest when it came to the "gank groups" Ask any Albion player and they will tell you the same.
Sorry but you're the one talking about AoD being best GG that only run 1FG. If you wanna talk about their realm spirit or popularity then do so, but 'best' in FG terms defines how they work together as a team... has fuck all to do with RP's also.

It's good to look back here, same old ppl with same old sh!t. How can 8 men AoD grp can be free rps when they are always zerging? There are no 8 man AoD grp you always say. Most hibs and mids have a portion (2 bit from the 3 bit capacity) of them brains where 'AoD always zerging' was burned into like a ROM. Congrats! :clap: :clap: :clap:

True, that is the result of always seeing AoD among the Warder zerg. Ofcourse, you could also see them elsewhere at times, but once the warder zerg arrived, AoD clung to it immidiately. <shrug>

You know not all of some rvr guilds are total assholes towards others? they may be a few at times who were but sometimes it's not like they aren't provoked to be one, not like other guilds have all saints in them anyway.Why do you say elitist?i am just curious, is it because they invite guild players and ignore people outside guild? well if they got the classes then why not use them.

Was a laugh if granted only once a lifetime you can say that re the current situation and the game. Ran as a trio, 2 wardens and a druid in afternoon and ended up having a laugh with twf, just like later the Albs did with like 5 twfs. Bring on instanced zones.

I guess the answer lies in why AoD were not in the pe/fl rvr alliance, I dunno why. AoD just mixed with the majority alot more.

Most of FL have nothing against AoD and they know this themselves do not know about PE but guess they are the same, alliance wanted to be small was the main reason so it could be more organised.

does it really matter about who zergs who and OMG guild groups grouping up to kill people.

Reading through the new animist team leader report i really hope that some of it gets into mythics head Im tired of being classed as a one trick pony.

I use shrooms because thats all ive got access too if i could bomb you on the battlements i would but i cant there for shrooms do the job.

as for AOD is that the people who steveh used to run i dont really know but ive ran into full groups of albs before and they were a good fight generally hitting hard and fast.

All i can say is if your idea of rvr is i /stick /afk then your going to end up dead. I managed to suicide both my characters into the middle of the defence group out of bold today they didnt die at the fringe they died in the middle if i was a twf user or such and had someone chain healing me you would probbly all be in the middle of a lot of pain.

Wake up smell the roses and for got sake when the doors of a tower go down and there is no oil rush the lord room instead of standing outside waiting to be farmed.

Anywho think the thread should be closed i didnt really understand why i was picked on as an example of why hibs are owning in rvr.

Think about that daoc is a MMORPG and not MORPG...

Well, to be a "dead realm with everyone leaving" you're still able to move tens of people in frontier. I had to go for a quick afk in eras, no alb in sight, level 3-4 tower ... came back 2 minutes after, tower lost, last report was 70+, that was a fast realm resurrection !

One of Albion's biggest problems in RvR is that the more established guild groups are quite happy to sit outside Sauv waiting for fixed group members to logon, instead of giving other people a chance. This week a Cleric within our guild said she was quitting because she hadnt managed to get into a group for 2 months. I've even rolled 2 group friendly classes so I can do my bit and get some groups but can I get a group, no. When I ask in /as or /broadcast why I cant get a group I'm told it's nothing personal but people dont know me or my chars, but if they dont give you a chance how will they get to know you ? Am and alb, only play alb love alb :D

Gregor - 50 Ice Wiz
Beaster - 50 Inf
Stinkywinky - 50 Spirit Cab
Stinkypinky - 50 Necro
Badbok - 48 Minstrel
Fumby - 50 Cleric
Dingo - 50 Scout

in hib this is totally diffrent, on relic raids and such roleplayers and "elites" play together and have fun.

maybe arthur should try it aswell

a solution for your problem might be to group with other people who is in the same situation

I guess this problem ain't an Alb side only 1 m8.
It's got nothing to do if u are good player or not, if u are a good guy or not etc. Peeps tend to stick with each other known ppl much like in real life, that's it.
Only real way to get rid of this problem is to raise a new "circle" of ppl u know and run with em on a regular basis.
So start with that Cleric u know, grab him before he quits, search for some other ppl to complete a reasonably balanced group and get out to fight us imo.

Mourning, mourning and even more mourning ...

Just ask yourselfes why do you join rvr.
Is it RPs to get better abilities, or is it the fun of interesting fights, or is it a victory versus an even or stronger enemy?

I think it is something of all this things.

And now ask yourselfes, why your "enemies" join rvr.

Rvr lives from your enemies, and if they leave, whom you will fight?

Sadly due a multitude of factors the majority of people I played with since launch have gone, the bulk of the guild I belong to have gone (Seven such a great guild with great people but so few left). Please also understand my post above aint a plea for buddies as I'd quite happiliy play my scout if I can get a group. Just thought it should be said that they'd be more alb groups running and less alb players quitting if some of the other alb groups were a little more ready to give people a chance.

You know when you can't get a grp with a 'normal' char and wanna play you have to roll a char what is playable without a grp, like a scout...

That's a vicious circle that's what i mean, u can't get a group, u roll a scout, there aren't groupable chars in Albion (they all playing Scouts, exageration but imo not far from reality).
U can stop the vicious circle when: u can't get a group, find other 7 peeps who can't get a group, roll a group on regular basis, go out play. I mean, we all started that way, bored of not getting groups and/or bored of playing with pick ups and wait ages in Ligen before actually playing.

Gahn, read my post before making yourself look silly. I believe I stated that if I cant get a group after a while I'll happiliy play my scout. For you information I also keep an eye on /as and pimp my cabalist. Oh and if you have a look at the classes I list in my original post you'll see a minstrel which is at 48, this is being rolled so I can offer yet another character for groups. I hope Gahn you're not saying that rather than play my scout I should just sit outside sauv waiting for an invite or just go play something else ? That way theyd be even less albs in the frontier and less opponents for hib/mids. Oh and further information the scout was rolled on day 1 of the european release so it's not the case I rolled fotm either, in fact the opposite as I'm making a mini. So why not read people's posts and think a little before just typing any old comments in to up your post count.

Thanks :D


edit . apologies if I come off hostile just winds me up when people talk pap :p

Ofc was a joke to raise a bit discussion, see my other post over Tafaya and enjoy ^^

Edit: btw instead of saying i'm an idiot (like u clearly hinting in this post declaring that i don't think) u should try to get hints from players who may have a different point of you from you, and maybe got same problems that u face now, BEFORE u and solved em in some manner.
But anyway y the hell do i care? it's your problem, play your scout and stfu tbh.

LOL, when your suggested hints and tips are I've rolled a fotm scout and thats where my problem is, when I've said I've rolled and am rolling chars to encourage grouping then sadly you are an idiot, well done on taking the hint though.
