The only annoying gankers were the stealthers - I'm not sure how effective stealth will be in AOC so its difficult to say how much of an issue this will be?

 

[Vasconcelos]

thats a bit of a generalisation i do a 40 hour week miniumum as im sure many many other ppl on pvp servers do and ive never considered myself "l33t" i just get fed up to the back teeth of constantly grinding xp its boring its dull and above all else it starts to kill the game off a lil bit of pvp amid the grinding breaks the monotony

each to their own but please dont assume those who are going pvp are no lifers. wow has left a nasty tase in ppls mouths when it comes to pvp and they are scared of going on a pve server and getting the same thing again hence they are going for pvp

Well, i guess its a matter that you are just gifted with a lot more patience than me

When i decide to pve, i want to pve in a relaxed way. I dont want the stress of looking behind my shoulder every sec, or w8ing for the odd stealth ambush when im fighting 3 mobs or doing a dungeon boss.

And in AoC, all the classes have stealth (assasins obviously develop this ability further) so its not gonna be the usual ud rogue jumping on you. It can be a dps caster from a safe spot nuking at you w/o u even noticing he was there

This isnt quite correct.

All classes can reduce their agro radius vs mobs via a sneak ability, the soldier classes ( barbarian/assassin/ranger ) get a hide ability which is a stealth type ability but barbs/rangs is limited and not great, only assassin has a decent range.

Add that to the fact that LOS greatly affects it etc.

Think more of FFXIs sneak spell rather than every class being a rogue.

tbh its a mute point no reason why we cant have a guild on both server types sure we will all be welcome on one or the other

Well yeah, but I don't quite see the point of choosing two different servers either, would be less people to play with and I don't really see peoples urge to play one or another. Can't people be social and adapt ?

 

[chipper]

the point is some ppl dont want to be on a full time pvp server their choice they just want an easier time there's no point them playing pvp if they aint gonna have fun.

 

[Cadelin]

As far as I can tell this guild doesn't have any specific aims. Its more for the casual FH user to get started on. So it would be wise to have a guild on each server type that people join depending on where they want to play. Unless the number will be very low?

I never said those "l33t" people are all spotty teenagers. I know quite a lot of them are people like me with jobs etc and that they're still able to be top of the line of the server with all the latest gear and whatnot. Thing is, I'm more casual than that, and my feeling is that a PvP server is not fun for a casual player who doesn't want to race everyone to the top.

Besides, I see myself in the end game as PvP-ing pretty much all the time (certainly more than a little bit, as you say) anyway, but then with player built cities and sieges etc. I'm not much for the roaming group vs group style PvP that I know many others love.

I'll definately try both server types, but I think we may have to accept that people are going to prefer different rule sets in the end.

Well, no point at all if numbers will be <10 . Can't even start the guild . Should be a decent number so people actually can find others to group with, that was the original idea. If everyone wants to solo around, then fuck it ;p

It's a great iniative, and will be very handy for us all int he beginning of the game when everyone needs protection from gankers.

After all nummbers > gankers

Plain and simple a good idea, like having a starter guild in daoc we make one when we arrive, and all who wanna join it can and when you need something diffrent you can just /disband.

/edit,

Also very handy for like items/money transfears in te beginning when you don't know anyone that well ( can always trust most of the FH community ). And for the ease of making groups for casual PvE/Grinding etc/ before your exp group is online.

Sneak requires shadows to hide in and is not too effective, but Rogues can for example hide in plain sight of people, wait abit and attack again with 100% life. Since hp regen goes so fast when not in combat, you can basically turn around a fight with kite tactics solo against say, 3-4 soldier classes. Lesson of this? Funcom needs to fix a few borked mechanics (which they will) and never go without a friend or two

Yeah that was the main idea, gank protection will of course depend on which server type etc. If things work out we can do higher level stuff together too (building guild city, things mentioned before). Remember when playing you will not be alone! So if we choose RP-PVP like many have put up, you should always have a shoulder to fight besides!

 

[chipper]

well theres 9 up so far that will go pvp-rp if they must etc plus im sure we all got some m8s who are going to pick the game up i got at least 2 who are gonna pick it up sure there will be more too

 

[Levin]

Actually guys, I don't mind so much if we make this guild on the RP-PvP server. It's true that if you're going to have a guild on one server and be solo on one, it's better to have the guild on the pvp server. If you're solo you'll have an easier time on PvE than on PvP.

I still prefer the PvE server but I'll follow along if it's decided that we go PvP.

 

[BloodOmen]

Aye up for RP-pvp also.

 

[LordjOX]

It gladdens my heart that we are agreeing more and more!
Levin has some very valid points. On a RP-PVP server there will always be protection with the guild.

I'll keep updated member list / interested list here:

Actually reading around a bit has made me wonder about RP-PVP - apparently people on such servers are often assumed to lack pvp skills so it becomes attractive to griefers and those who want to 0wnU!!!

So although we favoured them for their lower numbers of griefers we may end up with more - doh!

We now number 20 + friends!

Agreed it might be a special situation rynnor, if people think that RPers will be easy targets. Although people that want to PvP might want more competition aswell. Not to say that we'll die like screaming pigs though, we'll rise up above that.

Add "Elisabeth" into there my gf, she will play with the guild also.

 

[ECA]

I have 3 friends who'll be playing and would prefer PVP server type.

 

[Levin]

My gf will play the game also, but she is a bit shy so I don't know if she'd want to join the guild.

 

[Elisabeth]

Add "Elisabeth" into there my gf, she will play with the guild also.

Thx Was to lazy to post here myself

 

[pez]

Sign me up for PvP. I also like the idea of RP but only if the guild rules are fairly relaxed. For example, paragraph I just wrote should be perfectly acceptable even though I didn't use the words 'thou' 'hast' or similar.

Roleplay with "thou" and "hast" is just a bit silly. Good roleplay doesn't need those old style words in order to feel real.

I was wondering the same, if we end up in RP-PVP, which i hope not (not in PvP) i willl have probs trying to express my self in the ole tongue

 

[old.Tohtori]

Actually it's the worst RP players who try ye old language of thou hast in thine pants.

This, what i write here now, is the way one would roleplay.

Even saying "I like to roleplay", when in character, would be ok as it would refer to the character you roleplay to like some roleplay

Roleplaying is a playing a role, not talking bollocks for no reason
