Playstation: NA and EU (Gray Host) - This Must Be The Place...

That's normal if people are cool with passing their top 10 ranking spot to someone else to get emp.

Or maybe he needs a break?

it happens from time to time - particularly later at night (early in the morning ) once a lot of the zerg stuff has died down and it's mostly just the old "regulars"...

dang, that's brutal...AD has both factions gated???

yikes...

memorial day weekend - so, hopefully EP and DC get some decent pop bumps...i imagine the queue for AD will be in the triple digits...

seems like forever ago when the issue in scourge was a flood of blue...

i've begun to really despise having to ride out the alliance starter areas

TequilaFire

Only 1 min que for Ep! lol

TequilaFire

Well blue managed to get Rayles back and we got Farragut and Kingscrest, so one small step...

oh...............................................yea that is a thing I have not done this 'School' thing in many years

I also took a really long break from playing, I'm not even ranked on the leaderboards

someone had posted in another thread the idea of buffing the gate keeps to make them extremely difficult for an enemy alliance to take over...

I would imagine some mechanism for allowing it to be easier for the home faction of that alliance to retake the keep would also need to be included...

giving a dominate faction a 1,750 point health boost for emperor, plus all the other buffs for owning everyone else's scrolls is a poor setup...

Skills
Note that these passive skills are not cumulative, only the highest rank applies. Specifically, Home Keep Bonus is replaced by Enemy Keep Bonus I, which is then replaced by Enemy Keep Bonus II, and so on.

If you do not hold ALL off your home keeps, you will not receive any of these passives.

That is why I laugh at people who say scrolls and home keeps don't matter and just go for emp.
They also laugh when I suggest to take all those buffs away from emp alliance before dethrone attempt.
This is what we put up with on EP.

it got a little weird toward the end at bleakers - folks kind of just stopped fighting each other...thankfully I've played enough to know when there's a cease fire in place going on...it takes a moment and then - "oh, okay I get it" ...break time...

Isn't that when you're about to get DC'd? You pray to Vivec that the connection comes back. And when it does, you're usually somewhere farther away than previous or fallen off the wall.

Looks like allmadden dipped out of the campaign. One minute he was top scorer. Then he was gone.

Kinda like Keyser Soze.

That's happened before after he got emp. He seems to do it so others can get emp. I'll see tonight if he's asking if anyone needs a group as usual.

We just lost our last keep, guess AD will just have to play with themselves now.

This argument happens everyday, even on DC and when AD was at the bottom.

Gotta hand it to AD for staying above ground. DC has 3 bars and gets gated so I can only guess many players are in the sewers. EP with 2 bars constantly pretty much is tough. And with the same DC group always pushing Chalman and Arrius, it makes it even tougher with AD pushing everywhere.

geonsocal

this was literally different faction players all just standing around - unstealthed - at bleakers (it was past midnight west coast)...

it involved players east, south and north of bleakers...

it happens on occasions, I was tired anyways, plus, most of the players chilling had already killed me several times...

no need to push the issue...

TequilaFire

Let me make a prediction, now the map is all yellow they will get on their blues and flip the map again.
Damn this alliance changing without cooldown.
I refuse to join in.

But what if I want to re-roll to help balance the campaign?

PhxOldGamer68

11 more days until new campaigns. Can't wait to see all 3 alliances pop-locked 24/7 in Vivec. The winning alliance will have less players in the sewers. That's my theory.

Never had a problem with switching at the beginning of a campaign, just switching at will during the campaign.
So come on in the water's fine! Well there are a few slaughterfish.

Used be in his guild. Got tired of taking keeps far away from everything and the constant demand that everyone wear the tabard from the guild or dye your armor purple.

not sure why - but, went away from using soul assault for awhile...started using it again on my magblade...the channel takes forever and a day, but, the tooltip damage number is crazy - like 40k or something...

the ultimate I really need to start mixing in is dawnbreaker of smiting, unfortunatley i've stopped trying to level fighters guild with most of my characters...

dawnbreaker has shown up more consistently on my death recaps since I started playing than any other skill...

just read the tooltip on the skill - for some reason I had always assumed it caused physical damage...it actually though uses magic damage, very interesting...

hmmmmmm, might give it a try on my magsorc...
