    Where would DC be, without @jameslogan425 marking people... before dirt-rolling them? lol

    Yoooo. Wait. Sure, when I'm running solo, I'll assess a situation from stealth, mark the target in a cluster of enemies with the lowest HP, ambush to them, Dawnbreaker of Smiting all of their faces, reverse slice, reverse slice... but I'm not seeing how that makes me a ganker.

    Also. I do not have snipe or cloak on my bars.

    First of all... you better edit this post and take out that "</3". lol

    Secondly, a ganker role isn't the "bad word" that people have associated with it in this game. It's viable, especially with the rocky outcrops and terrain surrounding most keeps in Cyro.

    Third, although I never even called you a "ganker," how many times have you sat in stealth outside of both, an outer wall and inner wall postern door... on the opposite side of a seige... and killed players entering/exiting those doors....? Many, many times... that's how many.

    You're the perfect assassin. Period.

    I've got a solo gank build I've run on my templar. Was only really fun in 1.6 but it was amusing to play the role not generally associated with the class.

    They're a little *too* perfect in the current meta, since they can take down everything in a couple of shots but maybe Malubeth cancerplars, but that's a balance issue to be addressed later.

    But you get two or three of them along the horse route to the closest keep where reinforcements are coming to defend a siege, and they can really turn the tide. That and it's just funny to see one hidden friendly guy in a sea of dead bodies waiting for a res.

    No matter how much I have hated on and continue to dislike the AD that originally inhabited AZ - the reality is they have either moved to DC to feed off the AZN Invasion - or they have left the server for the most part. This new DC zerg needs a good solid butt reaming. I heard about a DC emp who is bringing entire zergs to defend emp keeps - and the 20+ that come to resources and well...I was "coerced" into coming back. I have to rework some things in my build to become top tier again - but I had some fun the past couple of days. I'll be around - not attacking AD - for the time being.

    The best is when we have 5-6 EP defending - and the 40+ DC all stop to teabag you as if what they did took some skill. Newsflash - 40v1 is not feasible and no one is going to tank it.

    Yes, my faction with 2 keeps won't let anyone else have anything.

    Edit: and even if I was DC, if I was out and about not attacking your keeps how would I be to blame anyway?

    I think... Umm. svartorn is just a bit salty at the moment. Fighting the DC horde, while it may be decent / good AP, is a bit bad for the sodium levels, as it barely feels like PVP.

    Anyway, Taylor, I think those EP just wanted to do the dolmen. If it's just me coming across an enemy faction player soloing a dolmen, I always whisper them and see how they react. But then people tell me I'm a carebear and I should just kill the enemies when I see them. So, eh. Who knows, yeah?

    The imbalance they were talking about is the japan people coming in and capping everything. Like I said earlier, there is nothing any of us can do about that.I am pretty sure the argument was everyone left because of the early morning pvp. What do we do? tell them to stop playing? Ever since Rylana and TM guys stopped leading on this campaign it went to ***, which is obvious how the action has been recently.

    If I made a post for every player complaining about me doing this and that we would have 99 pages, is it really necessary to call out someone?

    Seems DC's population has grown a bit over the last several week in addition to the graveyard shift crew. Departures certainly do not help.
