Be the change you wish to see? See the wish you be to change? Change the be you see to wish? Really it's all about yelling in zone things like "stop hitting the fkin door... hit the wall AROUND the door". Or even better, "buy siege and Check drinks." Learned tht one from Rak.

There's always "Quit trying to front door Ash!"

I actually have only experienced the invisible player bug once or twice. Did notice a couple other bugs though. Sometimes my Flame Lash won't go off, even though I'm able to hit an enemy with all my other abilities. I also had my health get stuck between 80-90% a couple times and wouldn't go back to 100% until after I died. I also noticed that my healing wars animation wouldn't go off, although the ability still worked so I kinda like that bug.

At least they were hitting the front door. Pugs just love to play on the porch.

Enipfodnuos

sometimes I run to the porch when I'm feeling particularly nihilistic.

I was thinking about pug zergs trying to plow through outer front doors... Ash, Roe, Alessia and BRK all have front doors that face the nearest outpost (nik and sej) , yet Chal and Ales do not face bleakers... I wonder why that is...

It sounds like EP beat you to your own plan.

If I wanted to morning-cap an emperorship I would've just called in LoDG's Oceanic branch. It's more simple than you think.

However, you intentionally were on for a morning cap. Whereas, I was just online to PvP, where-ever it lead to.

Holy sht. I get the don't camp tri keeps thing, but these implicit rules r getting way out of hand. Who cares if EP morning caps? I spent August through October in 2016 fighting the endless AD zerg and losing like 20 campaigns in a row. I DIDNT COMPLAIN ONCE. Pls kindly stop coming up with all these hersay rules when cyro isn't running the way you expect or want it to.

@Vurian97 ah just like you're doing right now with AD at 2 bars at noon on a Thursday morning? Just askin' for a friend.

People complained when I did it while on DC, so I will complain when it happens.

Going wherever the PvP leads to. AD has been known to overpopulate in the morning / afternoon compared to the other 2 factions. I didn't intentionally make AD 2 bars or intentionally hype the faction for an emperor push. A lot of AD has been pushing for it on their own.

This is honestly what I want to know. 1/2 of fights are completely random based on invisible enemies and whatnot. I did win a 1v1 against an invisible person, which was hilarious (they potatoed and stayed inside destro ult and ritual of retribution, eating skoria procs and whatnot).

AP is literally meaningless now due to a couple of well-known (and incredibly easy) exploits.

Even people not exploiting are mainly playing ring-around-the-resource for easy noninteractive AP. Leaderboards are utterly meaningless--and they were pretty meaningless to begin with.

Ummmmm. This is how emps almost always happen on DC. So why even make passive aggressive comments like tht? Ah sht, I'm being troll baited successfully aren't I?

As far as I'm concerned the only thing really cancerous to a campaign is gate camping. With night/morning caps, its not really ideal or fun, but the campaign doesn't just stop from midnight to 3pm the next day it keeps going and frankly people should get used to it happening more and more. With the changes made to AP so that you're making ungodly ap for capping unmanned keeps and resources night capping bad emperors is going to be more and more common. Again, the campaign doesn't just stop for a certain time of night so either stay up all night defending or say eh its not worth my time. Honestly it feels like the emperor title isn't really even special anymore, which is sad. The costume and title are still my personal favourite tho.

Having all 3 factions as a legitimate threat to the others is good for the campaign. I have heard plenty of complaints when I'm on my AD or DC toons about EP just sitting around and not pushing $ENEMY_ALLIANCE. But at this point EP lacks the numbers and at times the organization to be a threat to both alliances simultaneously. Which leads to a two sided meta like we've seen the past few months where it's a blue map in the morning and a yellow map by nighttime.

But I have been seeing larger, more organized groups showing up on EP. I have hope that there will be more good fights and actual contest coming to BwB soon.

God yes!! Not knowing where the next attck may come from or where is half the fun. More three faction threats please!!!

SEA stands for the Southeast Asia/Oceania region. It seems like DC has a higher number of SEA players than EP or AD since their pop numbers stay pretty high (comparatively speaking) late night/early morning NA time. It would explain the frequency of night/early morning caps. Either that or no-lifers.

It's also a shitpost.

Edit: It's mostly a shitpost.

LOL is that so? Like I've told you in-game, you need to kick whoever your informers are because they're really bad at keeping you in the loop. I woke up and logged in randomly after an unplanned free-day to see DC slow-boating emp with just BRK and Alessia to go. Myself and 2 others (one of which is the current emp himself) prevented a 9 man group from flagging Alessia (which was under ad control and like 2 defenders), wiped them at arrius and then reclaimed chal. From there we decided to go get our scroll which was in Ash. We picked up the scroll and decided to take Roe and get emp because it would be 2 birds with one stone.
So thank you for making bad calls all morning. We couldn't have done it without you.

The last few days I've been talking to my friend "Lord Heals" ( a.k.a The King of Forward Camps ), about creating a guild together named "House of Emperors". My intentions are to bring large groups of PvE players into BwB and steamroll AD. I'm thinking each raid will be 2 groups of 24 players. Our goal is to crown everyone Emperor that is in the guild.

Oh.. I can just hear the babies crying

CTSCold

On an unrelated note to the whole bs emp, night cap, gate camp subject: is there any reliable IC PVP In BwB?

Thanks in advance.

I would say No. I lived in IC for three months and it gets very lonely down there. It is a good place to farm stuff but if you are looking for action I would go to AS or TF IC.

CTSCold

Thanks, I'll just wait till I vet out then for IC.

Haderus IC was a lot of fun last time I was in there. That's where all of my vets are.

Never under estimate a PvE player. One thing I learned about PvE players is they love their achievements. If I give them motivation and reasons to come to PvP, they will come to BwB hurt your feelings, crown Emp and then ask if you would like any tissues.

That's just it, though. Hypocrisy and farts are the same: we hate others', and prefer our own.

Is it bad that both of your voices popped in my head as I read these. Maybe I've been on TS with you two too much.

Complete agreement.

First off all, that some deep sht. Pun intended.
Secondly, I'm really sorry you've been subjected to our self absorbed banter Deciever. While I find it hysterical, I have actually watched a whole group log off while name and I waxed philosophical on such things as farts or some other seemingly trivial topic.

Q-team wins. Q-team always wins, even if there is nobody left in the channel to hear it...

Keep up the good work Vurian, you are the missing piece that AD needed.

I really think they need to tear down this statue and put a statue of Vurian in its place: You show leadership, dedication, and are a strong warrior. Everyone needs someone like you.

@vamp_emily , that House of Emperors guild already exists. It's the Guild of Night Blader. I'm having trouble thinking of a member in our regular play group that hasn't been emp. I think Mad is the only one.

Adenoma

You two just need to kiss. You're both the least intimidating trash talkers of each faction. It's like Romeo and Juliet. Who's the Capulet and who's the Montague?
