When retaking towers from Mids....

[Skilgannon]

Don't just claim and runoff, leaving behind all those dead Mids scattered about the tower.

Healer self-rezzes, pops EoY rezz and tower is back in Mid hands without any gate-bashing.

Make em auto before you leave

 

[Belomar]

Pfft, of all the useless, no-good RR5 RAs there are, the Healer one is down there somewhere. Why, popping Sputin's Legacy implies that you don't have faith in your own abilities, so I never use it.

 

[Flimgoblin]

when taking towers from mids in midgard bring enough to defend from 40 people as that's what you get inc

(though it's possible they just couldn't find their way back from nottmoor spire after the fight 30 mins before)

 

[Jimmi]

self-res? :O

Nice

Its still well above the clerics RR5 RA.

Whatever were Mythic thinking

 

[Snarks]

And it's even further above the oh so useful Minstrel RA Ameliorating Melodies and their RR5 30 sec pet mezz

 

[Daws]

Whatever were Mythic thinking

Mythic were thinking: Hey - how do we improve our fixed group ? I know let's add a feature where if we're playing against stupid albs we'll never have to release... give healers self-res!

 

[Flimgoblin]

Whatever were Mythic thinking

I'd put my money on:

"Hey, remember when someone misread the Perfect Recovery description from the original RAs and thought it was a self-ress. Wouldn't that be kinda cool?"

Similarly I believe the "Vera'erius the Brave" named Drakoran in Avalon City probably came about from all the bullshit that was spouted about what made the dragon breathe fire.

(he'll fight you alone without his guards unless you use any offensive magic on him including weapon procs and reactive procs )

and that is leaps and bounds ahead of the Armsman Snapshot MoC'ing-Xbow uber pwn RA : /

 

[Daws]

Ahh armsmen... were they ever any real use?

 

[Vindicator]

Depends. with a few armsmen you could have some nice Cannon fodder .

Yes of course they were and yet still can be semi-useful.

 

[Heath]

Well, i still play mine,,,and he lives a lot longer than some of the "fodder" who dies beside me (o:

 

[Booze]

[Xplo]

Jimmythepost owns with that RA

 

[Skilgannon]

Think Belo was a bit tongue in cheek there

 

[Snarks]

Can I also add that when taking Mid/Hib tower after having reclaimed your own don't let the euphoria of success make you forget the vital things like

Ram - it does make getting the doors down easier and stops people ld'ing from constant pet spam
Catapults - helps to take out the NPC guards without getting shot by them and will help take out the boiling oil should the mids turn up. Will also help take door down quicker as well

Thankfully between myself and my wife we had both of these items and I was also carrying a ballista just in case.

It was good to see Albs assiting in the use of the ram at Bled T3 last night even if it was just a humble teenie one.

another thing to watch for from any realm is stealthers hiding in the tower, waiting for the retaking force to leave and then killing the poor low level tower captain.
