thats probably the opposite of fun in my eyes. - been on the receiving end of that for fuck knows how long.

Ah well, all personal I suppose. But I prefer fighting multiple enemies and taking one out instead of fighting some solo - winning a fight as a solo'er is all about luck imo..luck in getting the proper evades in, a stunstyle, etc .. :)

,and tbh Bridges arent the place to solo----->i think thats the biggest mistake people think they can solo at bridges.:eek2:


I go to bridges everytime, ofc i always boat. I don't think i make mistake going there, just more exciting and means i have to play better then i usually do when fighting people either together, or one after the other.

For a heavy tank i think the only viable area to solo is bridges. You have no interupts, and you usually can only win if you start a fight in close quarters, as for the likes of casters that can just kite you for miles in the open.

People can solo at bridges, you just have to know what your doing.

Soloing is fun and duels most fun of all. Often need to fight against grps and if then success kill atlest some of them and survive alive get awesome kickass feeling.

But sometimes fail too many times even staying alive or kill any1, then good option is grping, well reason for that can be just that m8 want grp, then we grp
and kill grps or soloers and then just come 1 bad solo enemy who wipe we both, ouch

So i think it´s ok grp while, but if grp all time, then just don´t have skills play solo and then ofc need to grp cause are so bad player

the " must " solo notion and the 1 vs 1 notion is many times so flawed and hypocritical so i dont hink anyone should pay it any heed just cause other yapp about it. But daoc seems to be a whole lot about that...making assumptions. My boss have a good expression he usually sais to me if i assume to much. " Never assume....then you will make an ASS out of U and ME"
It goes pretty well here also only the assuming person makes more of an ars out of himself imo:p
So...ur not out after rps are you....and ur only after a challenge. Why do so many of those 1 vs 1 people choose suchs a deadly character. Hey kiw..why dont you go out solo with ur drood and try kill some stuff? Sure you wont kill many but i guess the challenge must be top notch. Who said you had to group with a drood....i decide now that its wimpy and nerdy to group with droods...everyone have to start soloing with droods or im gonna deem all that doesnt hypocrites and wimps of the highest order:p
I think grouping as a stealther adds to a whole different thrill. It makes for a laugh with ur friends and as someone mentioned there is always a stealth zerg in the vicinity that gives you a challenge, and if they are solo they gang up so it even out the odds.

And also a bit tiring to hear the same old statement: The people that group up cant kill a fly on their own so they zerg and group up bla bla poo poo poo"
What the heck is wrong with the people that say that? Do you have some kind of nerve stuck in ur brain that twich everytime you see more numbers then one so when it happends the nerve twitch and you gotta rap it out everytime? Or do you actually think first and still just assume and accuse and judge everyone around you:p?
And what if they cant kill you solo? What if they DO decide to group up to have a better chance against you? Who is the wimp and the arshole to demand they throw themself at ur ranks and uber skillz and die to ur blade everytime to humor you and make ur gametime worthwhile but not his?
This game is a bout making YOUR time joyfull and something worthwhile. When i buy something for my own money like a tv or feckin anything, i dont let a total stranger come in to the store and paint a big blotch of red pink in the middle of the screen just cause he think he likes it. I buy a package that i like and no one else have the right to decide it for me. That arshole that wanna paint that red blotch in my screen can stand there in the store and whine and say he wants me to have that red spot there. But boi do i ignore him there as much as i should in this game....

Its all a matter of opinions, people say you destroy for them. But thats all in their own head. If they make an assumption and expect a whole feckin world around them to dance after their flute and that everything else is gonna be scorned upon they must live a very strange rl. I dont know where this wierd dilusion of thought comes from but they are not right.
Have no EXPECTATIONS about anyone....have no ASSUMPTIONS about anyone, and you will enjoy this game a whole lot more.
over and out...

imo there are a big % of players than duo or trio because they generally lose in 1 vs 1 we all know some examples

so what:)? If they die to everyone else should they just keep on doing that or are they allright to play as they like and even out the odds? Or should they humor all the 1 vs 1 players and play as they wish? They play for their own fun..if they dont think its fun to die over and over again cause they cant get it to work for them..then let them right? Or are we all dictators that decides for them though they pay for the game with their own money.
Nothing harsh against you excal. Was just a thought for the comunity that thinks this way..

Of course a high RR inf/sb/ns is going to want you to be solo. If you start grouping there's an extremely high chance he'll lose the fight.

Have to laugh everytime you kids come up with this 'fair' 1 vs 1 or 8 vs 8 concept. Game = unbalanced due to realm ranks and character races/classes.

Have fun!

the problem is if you die to multiple opponents there isnt much you can do about it. like its kind of got an unrewarding emtpy feeling and u can die so fast. shit happens but when thats "all" that happens you kind of just get hustled out of the game and you loose interest.

like at the end of the day you have 4 options when its zerggy.

a) you log off (that toon and do summin else or play another toon or just log)
b) you quit
c) you group up
d) you carry on (this option becomes less viable after XX amounts of getting shafted)

I think the frustrating thing is daoc has all the ingredients to be good. the combat system is ok etc, the way it all works is cool loads of fun stuff and abilities.

Its just like if you keep insta dying you get pissed off. a lot of stealthers dont wanna group up as well, thats just the way they wanna play so when they keep on getting chain greased over time they just give up and thats whats happening I think.

Game needs a radical overhaul or numbers will just keep slipping away.

WHY DO PEOPLE INSIST THAT STEALHERS SHOULD SOLO ?

Hmm. Most stealthers are alone pretty strong characters. With MLs and articharges a stealther can kill most targets.

Us playing mostly visible classes, are a bit pissed or confused on one thing; i dont think I've ever gotten jumped by a stealther duo when beeing in a visible duo. Same goes for trio and more. Still all stealthers claim they love to jump small groups when they themselves are in small groups.

So basically most visuals are very sceptic to the statement

We dont only kill soloers when in a stealthgroup, we jump small visual groups too

From day 1 of taking my hunter out into rvr i continually got ganked by a fg of Hib stealthers called PM.I got so fed up of it i stopped playing the toon until i met some other mids ina DF group and we got talking about our other 'toons'.I mentioned why i never played the hunter and they had exactly the same experiances as me with this Hib stealthzerg so we started to grouping together to stand a chance.Strangely the Hib Sz soon gave up and vanished and even more strangely their 'leader' was reborn as a 'hardmode' soloer with his own irc channel of reverance! happy days.......:england:

if you lose being rr10 vs lowys and need to group to kill something its very sad


i am always praying to find aim , rodelsb etc... and his crew alone to givv them a good lesson

I wont whine to casual players or normal that grps to get fun but i will whine the lamers 24h/7 days rr10 constantly grouping just to bother soloers and gank them...

2-x number of grouping stealthers against solo means better chance of winning followed with better chance of getting dem arpeez.

kinda funny i can't even come up with a proper answer to the question why stealthers should solo. probably because a mix of a few things:

- hard to coordinate and keep track of each other in stealth, its a hassle
- too few proper enemies
- small grp vs small grp is usually lightning fast combat, again, which is hard to coordinate

nice thing about playing a stealther is the freedom to afk whenever you want, go whenever you want, kill whatever you want (or try to). duoing is nice if you let the other have 1v1 fights, and jump in when there are adds.

i really can understand why stealther sometimes make groups,specially at primetime at the bridges the survivability is crap for them.
i cannot understand when they team up when nobody else is there specially high RR once.
Its lame to fight 3-1 but its sometimes fun to fight the stealther groups when its nearly even in numbers.
ofc this is the same for visibel players.

Ive not played much lately but i will admit i do add but only for a reason,like this one time even though kilsimba has a bad rep as a ranger i saw coldbeard add on a good 1vs1 i saw so i added on him.casters i will add unless i know they will not do the same to me and that go's for most even though they treated me shit in the past.

People that play casters really do go for the easymode coz they cant play anything else and do well.

Lols, look at this great post, it features some zerging prick claiming that I added on a 1 v 1 with , behold, here comes a great moment, KILSIMBA. Haha.
If you want to post some shit at least make it beliavable, like .. 1 v 1 vs Kilsimba? Get a grip you dumb fuck.
