What is doing AD in excalibur ? ( Albion ) discuss

[stubbyrulz]

well to be honest its probly better for alb if they all dont follow the example of these leet guilds because then people will still have the chance to play class's they want to rather than having to play fotm class's to get into rvr groups

 

[Thaadi_]

not to mention very hard not to add, when all Norse and Celts switch to me as I run past... (like @ that DC hill fight). I was trying not to add but a man has to defend himself...

sowy

 

[Awful]

Nukenin stopped by us when we were fighting a fg near dc grogans one day and actually pm'ed us and asked if it was ok to add, we said 'no please' and he actually respected that and left our fight alone. If Nukenin can respect us wanting to do our own fighting I think there is still hope.

 

[Tinyheals]

Shame nobody replied to my post.
Are some of those AD guys Mid/Excal noobs who are trying to prove Albion/Excal is viable?
Regards, Glottis

Yup some of us are

 

[Tinyheals]

you found a smiley huh? ;p

 

[swords]

I have found that if you want FG rvr Odins gate is a much better place to look for it.
There have been Hib zergs recently and a bit more albion activity but its still alot less zergy compared with Emain.

We have been running a balanced Albion FG for some months now, and have successfuly beaten equal RR guild groups from both Hibernia and Midgard.

Its all how you use the tools given to you and how your groupmates work with you.

Btw Glottis...we have beaten RR7-8 Hibernian PB and midgard OMG look 3 savages groups...so can you please stop posting the same whines about us not being able to compete over and over again on every single rvr thread you post in. christ you turn gratz threads into savage whiens daily.

 

[AtomicBattleHamster]

actually we tell people who ruin our fun to fuck off.

not how they should play.

And they, in turn, have the fight to ignore your plea.

Define "our fun" also, because that could be their fun and therefore you're inadvertently telling them how to play. Ohh the jolly times on the word play we can have when people think they've got it sussed.

Swings and roundabouts

how many thanes or runemasters do you see in a perfect set mid group
how many champions and mentalists do you see in a perfect set hib group

Thing is that there are classes that aren't very viable this patch.
You can all rvr as much as you want, go 2 fullgroups, i dont care at all,
just - don't - help - us - in - a - fair - fight.

Hibs and Mids perspective of albion as a realm is a bounch of 12year-old kids with shiny armor in a glorious chatgroup so the realm will win the holy war.
And that there's no chance in hell even if they bother, that they can kill a fullgroup enemies, but instead yell in the chatgroup for more people to come.

this is wrong, albion is very hard to play, but we can do really good.
Just that albion on excalibur seems a bit "not-interested".

woooo, this thread popped up fast Oo

if you are at a pve camp, happily pulling etc - i wouldnt run in and start killstealing. most people in albion wouldnt.

in rvr however - they do.

why?

 

[Freppe]

Who gives a shit if they dont to nothing for the realm. Its their game, they can do whatever they like.

As ppl have said, they really have gr8 fights with the opposites realm best fg. Which makes also albs viable. Nothing else. Tho albs may have it harder. The thing about rps/week is nothing else than hibs/mids got zergs etc to fight. And dont say zergs dont give you rps, cus they certainly do.

No reward "rp's" so much for pve, majority of albs are too stupid to make a semi decent grps and make rp's in fg/2fg rvr that they just add/zerg as they can't get them any other way

was talking about the general idea etc ;o

if people can avoid spoiling others fun by not stealing camps in pve they should be able to respect it in rvr as well.

i dont mind much if they 2fg or zerg etc, just dont steal our 1fg mids/hibs ;[

prolly smth to do with the CoC then ain't it against coc to steal peoples spawns etc? otherwise you never know, people may have done it in pve, if there was no rules against it :/

 

[Aussie]

i wanna ADd on this thread too

well, afaik its only against coc if you steal a mob from someone who is already hitting on it.



p.s. the leetness is strong in this thread! ^^

 

[Treon]

AD > Any Alb guild, and the majority of Mid guilds.

Only run into you 3 times but big respect for going 1fg prime time.

how can u say this if u only meet em 3 times, sounds weird to me

This is the million dollar question, which I don't have the answer to.

But over the years of playing this, I've noticed these people fall into 2 categories.

1. They genuinely believe they are helping "the realm" or person being attacked by making the kill go as quick as possible, thus everyone will be ready, with less downtime for the next encounter. These people could often be those that are not au-fait with the "unwritten" rules we all govern ourselves by.

2. They are selfish gits who leech off people, knowing full well that their actions are interfering with others, but do not care about it. (We can't do anything about them and 1000000000 posts about it won't change a thing unfortunately, nor will stating this fact over and over and over and over again.)

Asking why we have these people here, questioning their motives over and over again is futile and really wasting your time. I feel for people who are so moved by others in game that they write posts with such passion, vengeance and malice; in the hope it achieves something more than the usual retort of "QQ", "cry more noob" or "insert self-styled-ego-fuelled witty comment here".

In retrospect, there's nothing wrong with being passionate about making or wanting your realm to work together and do it well. But we're dealing real life people at the other end of these computers here and no amount of shouting, screaming, pouting or observations can make a change without direct actions (ie. having in-game mods or CSR's who actually have the time to play/help, but that's a whole new ballgame and potential can of worms ! ) or a DECENT penalty system of non grouped RP's or combat initiated RP's.

I'm not right on this, this only reflects my opinion and how I see the game.

 

[laaken]

Err.. it's not illegal to pull from the same "spawn" as someone else, the creatures are there for everyone. It's illegal to start hurting pulled mobs on purpose though.

Morsan added on us last night!!!!2111

BURN HIM^^

P.S. How's the diet going?

 

[Gordonax]

Albs said they cant compete fg vs fg, now AD showed them something else. Think that's what was the point.

Only people who've never played RvR in a decent group would think that Albs *can't* compete. People have argued that it's harder for Albs to compete, because more classes are required to properly balance a group. People have also argued that insta's give Mid and Hib an undue advantage. And, of course, people have argued that savages are unbalanced (which is a whole other story).

But I don't think anyone has seriously ever argued that Albs can't compete 1fg vs 1fg. There are plenty of people, me included, who think that 1fg isn't the be all and end all of the game. But that's another story.

And Alb's view of Mids is of a bunch of 14 year old Swedes who never leave their LAN mates, who have no skill but rely on having a FOTM setup with overpowered savages. So what's your point? You've played both now, so you know that both views are bollocks.

why?

Because it's Realm Vs Realm, not 8 vs 8. Really, if you want fair fights, with even numbers, play something else.

Someone is jealous?


Look they ARE by far the best rvr based guild on Albion, take a leaf from thier book, and quit zerging with your noob-filled random groups, and make a balanced group that can compete in FG v FG rvr.

Just when you think someone if growing up a little, they post trash like this. Fluid, if you have nothing serious to contribute, don't bother, ok?

no.

its a game, its what you make of it. i want fair small scale fights, and i want others to not ruin it.

If you bothered to read what I posted, instead of coming all knee-jerk hardman, perhaps you would contribute something useful to this discussion. I don't know, and don't care if they are the the best in 1fg vs 1fg, because I don't value that kind of play. This is realm vs realm, not 8 vs 8.

Like I said earlier, fair play to them for playing the way they want to, though. But that doesn't make them superl33td00dz from the planet Mid.
