The whining is a bit sad imo. I heard lots of talk that hibs should come out more and rvr is so boring atm etc. When the hibs finally come play, suddenly it's killing the server (like it was already mentioned here).

Get a grip. :doh:

Ugh I hate to agree with Xanatea (him being a twat etc :p) but mid groups are a lot stronger than hib if properly made up.
Basically you either go tank heavy and take 3 or 4 zerks then 2 healer, shammie in support and skald for speed. The zerks with end regen and a few levels of determination will just cut through anyone in seconds, especially if they are all assisting one main tank. Seriously I've met a 3-4 zerk group on excal and they kill heros in a couple of seconds.
The alternative is to swap 2 or 3 zerks for SMs and use PBAE. AE mez the group, SMs speed in, AE stun (hopefully just after GP) and everyone dies. It's really hard to counter because of the two forms of CC and the insane speed/damage of the SM pbae. Doesn't matter that the stun lasts for like 4 seconds on half the people, you're dead in 2 from pbae. :p

Afaik we left to Hib/Prydwen just before Camlann because the MMG in Emain was camped for 2 weeks long every day by 5fg Albs, which isn't really fun. We didn't get "owned" by Hibs.

After Camlann, NP returned to Hib/Prydwen and has become what it is today. And the reason we choose Hib has already been said by Xanatea.

And that we usually win with less numbers is because we have the better lead + the balanced groups (which is easy in Hib) - We won 95% of the fights when Xanatea lead us as a bard, doing the mezzes perfectly and leading us through emain very well.

This is something i don't see on the other sides - a very good leader. Especially Midgard here needs some pacification healers who are very good at leading and playing their class. And Albs need some sorcerers who do so too, or a minstrel. Get a CC'er to lead and you will win a lot more fights. And yes, the people who feel they aren't a noob should get their ass off and lead the others.

And people who have played enough against us will know we don't have a radar, as they will know the times they have surprised us too.

My 2cents.

Edit: and yes the sorcerer doesn't have any insta-CC compared to the other realms, but the Range 1875 in 1.60 evens that out and it's a very fair change i think.

Edit2: and who unbanned Gombur? :(

Agreeing with original poster (better not say much more or I get accused of some random type whine which seems to be best defence of any argument on these forums). Lucky thing is Albs get some love in a later patch so they will prolly powerlevel there soon and prove to another server how great they are, maybe we can get back to the way things were :)

You mean back to zerging... no hang on, that can't be right!

I'm afraid I haven't met any Noby Pride, either as enemy or ally, so I don't really have an opinion on them as players or people. They do seem to know what they're doing though, which is probably why they are so successful.

Meeting players who know what they are doing will always be the downfall of Midgard players, as we generally don't have a clue.

But yes, get rid of Nolby Pride, then we can go back to 'the way things were' (running around emain like headless chickens, whole groups breaking ranks to kill one enemy... yada, yada, yada).

Oh... almost forgot

;)

The past 3 nights at about 1 - 3 am there has been 2 fg's of hibs running around together as well as another full group. We just about had 1 fg and mids had a couple of fg's running around (not together). We beat the mids a few times and the hibs single group then 2 mins later the 2 fg's of hibs run up kill us and proceed to camp apk, occasionaly running to amg. They continued camping even when we only had 4 - 5 people. What the fuck is the point, as has already been said 1 fg of well balanced hibs is very very strong, surely you dont need 2 fg's to deal with 5 people. I can't understand how you get enjoyment from the constant 2 fg zerg against far less opposition. At that time 1 fg is plenty. I thought it was supposed to be fun > RP?

Midgards perfect group would be something along the lines of...

1 Pac Healer
1 Mend Healer
1 Aug/Mend Shammy
1 Skald
1 PBT Runie
1 Shield Tank
2 Berserkers

IMO anyway. Just looking at that you can see how hard it would be to get a group like that together.

Whereas Hibs just get a Warden, Bard and a Druid, toss in some random characters and go on their way.

yep, hib is by far the easiest realm to form a perfect rvr-group with, since we all know how many mindspecced sorcerers there are out there :)

you need to calm down and get better faction with the Legion of Lurikeens :D

Might have a good point there. With the odd exception nightshades are useless. In Albion even people with top quality class mains will roll infiltrators so they don't have to rely on other people, and cover themselves in glory.

However they'll never do the business against full balanced groups, only against soloers. Still they pay for their account so how they want to use it is their problem of course...
