Why?

[Mybuddies]

Before I say anything, this is NOT a whine! It's a genuine question about stealthers that someone who has a lot of experience with them may be able to help.

I've found that a large proportion of stealthers I come across immediately, as soon as I start to fight them, turn tail and run as fast as possible for the water. I end up chasing some halfway across Thid before killing them, often with only a couple of half-hearted last minute blows back in return. Which is odd, since plenty of stealthers have killed me in a straight 1v1.

So the question is, is there a pecking order of strength between Infs, SBs and NSs? Which makes 1 of these classes go 'uh oh' and run to the hills when popped? Or am I just being unlucky? (By the way, this happens even when there are no other Albs for miles).

I'd be interested to know.

i think its Inf>Sb and NS pretty even atm
Inf because of the extra spec points
SB because your base class can have more str than your counterparts in the other realms and access to 2h to counter the in general higher dmg of a NS

imo anyway

 

[Elkie]

i had fraps of me doing 2 laps round thid chasing after this sb for fun xD, yes i was bored. Problem with stealthers and im very critical of thid stealthers is they dont play class to its potential end with them loosing aint back in thid yet so aint got full scale of what your talking about but im pretty sure its happened to me in the past.

I forgot to say, this is when I'm playing my Infil (ofc).

if they miss pa they dont really have much of a chance vs you unless they luck out unless they have put time into AF charges etc etc to become very well equipped.
You generally know after the first hit whether you stand a chance or not tbh

From my experience when albs had the keep u seemed to be hovering just outside it, so if anyone pops you they will have to run some distance to make sure they dont get adds from the 2x theurg 2x wizz and sorc that camp on the battlements, try moving away from the keep a bit

I'm very rarely hovering near the keep unless I'm recovering health, going afk or there's a hole in the wall with hibs pouring through it! I'm not one of those players who gives a monkeys about dying. If you saw me there its unusual, I prefer bridges

 

[Glenmorangie]

It really depends on where you are fighting, if its near other players/keep/bridge. Also depends if you get a PA in or get PAed.

Problem with crit spec SBs is that their dualwielding damage sucks, and a 2H is so much dependable on the opponents defenses.

Bludgeon is nice though

i dunno i spose cos they phear the OP infness, stealthers run from me too mostly, only the decent players that dont add ect are the 1's that stand an fight 1v1 the little zerging poping fuckers sprint to keep/FG then come back with a friend, its not so much the class, just the attitude of the tit behind it

Generally speaking, i think your a bit of a tool.

But i agree with you on this

 

[Dorimor1]

Too many stealthers full stop!

This is true. I rolled out a new toon, an armsman called Myblades last night. Unfortunately he got chain ganked by a group of stealthers who were camped by apk.

So I got out my stealther.

Thats the problem. People get zerged so they roll stealthers, people get stealthzerged so they log stealthers, people log BDs to kill stealthers, people roll vamps to kill BDs, everyone else rolls a stealther

 

[Demon2k3]

i don't play stealther , i got a scout but i don't play him. i use my easy to see friendlt minstrel singstar in thid . coming soon again to stun you with my voice .

cheers :worthy:

(By the way, this happens even when there are no other Albs for miles).


Not so true u popped me infront of a fg of albs at the ck when u guys had it and i run to the water no point standing toe to toe

That example still doesn't make my statement untrue.

I said what i had seen of you.I did see you without a fg (no running to water then)in toe and i cant see why any ns or sb would run from you tbh. So like a said i think u must pop alot of ns or sb out when u have a fg close ps just what i seen maybe some of the sbs ns that run from you might no more ?

Then you are wrong and so is your logic.

ROFL u just run back like a little baby just now to your m8s on mb as a one on one was to much for yea ))))))

 

[Dorimor1]

Atleast Mybuddies isn't talking crap

 

[Yeke]

I'd guess mostly as the large majority of times people get popped by a stealther less then 5 seconds later another 1 or more pops on you too

 

[Ravencroft]

rofl and u think that why???????????? he posts about sbs and ns running from him but he is the wee noob that likes to pop peeps when he is close to or in a fg no point coming here saying why do stealthers run from me like he is leet infact he is a easy solo as for u u always talk shit tbh

btw anytime u feel that peeps run from u if u see me wave ill come show u the way home

And Bugz rolls a reaver and unleashes carnage from the heavens of the earth. :worthy:

Exactly what I was gonna say

 

[Mybuddies]

Ah Ravencroft, what a surprise I come back from holidays and see a load of posts.

Why is it, whenever someone starts a thread they get 2 kimds of replies. A decent, informative one like chronictank who answers the question. Then there are the other kinds of replies, either from a forum troll who just feels like sticking his oar in, or someone who died in RvR wanting to cry and deride the poster.

I'll say this slowly so you can understand... The phrase:

'By the way, this happens even when there are no other Albs for miles'

DOES NOT MEAN:

' I only ever attack people when there are no albs around, causing them to flee because I am so uber'. That would be nonesense.

IT DOES MEAN:

'I attack some stealthers and they run, even if there are no albs around'. i.e. I can attack them near a fg of albs, or I can attack people miles away from albs and some people still run.

It sounds to me like you have some beef about me popping you or fighting you near albs. Well, if you stealth near albs expect to be popped. The fact that albs are nearby makes no difference to me. In fact I wish they wouldnt keep adding on my kills but well, they are paying their subs too. I'm often popped near mid groups and I expect no mercy. I certainly don't go and trash someones reputation on FH like a kid throwing his dummy out of the pram.

I am neither leet nor uber. Plenty of stealthers have killed me 1v1 and they will no doubt post here sometime to tell us. It makes me sad that people can't ask a simple question in these forums without it degenerating into a slanging match. It saddens me more that you have such a lot of time on your hands that you can waste it trolling in this way. But the saddest of all is I wasted 5 minutes of my life defending something I have no need to defend. I won't be posting again on this thread. Youv'e had your whine and I have replied.

I should know better than to ask a question on FH when there are so many idiots ready to jump in.

and if u can't live with being popped by an enemie stealther in front of a fg of his realm mates ... then don't bother playing a stealther or don't go near that fg

not everyone has a bb, not everyone has spend 5-10plat on a thid suit with leg weps etc... some ppl take thid far too serious and "casual" ppl dont stand any chance at all vs that type, so why feed em free rps?
