Dawnbreaker NA - Reloaded

SwampRaider · July 2014

I know for a fact that 2 of those AD on that list were actually helping EP find the location of the exploiting AD FC in the chim scroll area.

anyway DB wasn't fun tonight because 75% of DC decided FPS was too big of a boss. I wanted to actually take keeps, while others wanted to farm AP instead.

Uneventful night imo

Yeah, I did notice two of those AD did not fight back.

3, actually. I sent L'uomo to pick up the scroll and give it to EP if it dropped.

I was there to stop the exploiting. I've seen a lot of it going on AD side, and it really sickens me. We had enough people to take the EP home keeps and go after the scroll legitimately, but apparently that wasn't good enough for some of us. On behalf of my faction, I apologize for tonight.

@Magister_Aena, hopefully the integrity on Dawnbreaker will be there and the sort of bug using mechanics we have seen on other campaigns or Emperor flipping like Celarus do not occur. I mean not exactly like Celarus but scheduling who is going to take Emp next and helping them in some way, instead of your faction.

Whats going on? Aint no sploitin that im aware of.

dcincali · July 2014

Dunno, I haven't been logging for a few days due to the FPS garbage.

Somehow, BDG got into chim gate and spent a good 2 hours or so trying to steal chim scroll.

EP had all of their home keeps, so it couldn't have been possible legitimatley.

bitaken · July 2014

Well, EP was steadfastly pushing south this morning. They went heavy after faregyl and then managed to get bloodmayne and pick up the scroll of mmen. We decided not to let them have it - took it from them south of Alessia - which we took to dethrone the AD emp. We took it to Alessia to see if they would get too distracted and allow an emp for us - but alas they defended BRK and we took the scroll to Ash for the fun of a defense against AD - and also to allow AD to cap it back at some point without too much fuss. Also, it should be a nice gob of AP at ash

Personally - I want to maintain the balance in this campaign - if everyone has their scrolls the chance of loss of population should be less. That is...if the FPS issue is actually fixed tomorrow.

Dropped me before I could swap weapons and fight

das my scroll! Lol good fight at BRK though I knew what u were doing

took 12 people and went and defended it, was a fun fight minus the FPS

bitaken · July 2014

Yeah per usual these days bud. We got the outer down at BRK saw the camp and the flood of bodies - did not want to stop trying to take it.

Got up the stairs - with 1.2 FPS and relogged after that death.

Got up the stairs with 2.5 FPS and made a fight of it sort of.

Said - bah - let's go cap it at Ash and let the dominion get it back without having to trounce thru DC territory.

Thanks for the scroll though

The open field fights are manageable - but the keep battles with siege engines...I just get right down to 2FPS and it's useless trying to lead my guys.

Grats on finally taking the keep. That was one of the sloppiest offenses ive ever seen in my life.

Additionally, since it was off peak hours, it kind of devalues your achievement anyway, right?

Was a fun ride while it lasted though.

12 severely drunk people and some PuGs... it was a bit sloppy yes.
My jesus beam will find you again worry not.

My guess would be taking the scroll back was never the plan, the plan was to bait people to attacking so they could farm kills.

But thats just a guess. I have no idea what the plan was, but Ive learned that people will chase a scroll until the end of time.

poopoohead · July 2014

Clearly if you are behind the enemy's home gates when they lose their home keep, you are a dirty exploiter. As soon as that keep is under attack, you must sprint out of the gate. If you don't abandon your endeavors, scroll or pvp, you should be banned.

Halrloprillalar · July 2014

so much fun farming EP at our scroll gate today, thanks all

Halrloprillalar · July 2014

my god 4 relogs and fps still <5... wtf game

Rylana · July 2014

Abour 3 1/2 hours til patch time. Heres to hoping when I wake up in about 6

dcincali · July 2014

I'm not holding my breath.. This is what i ran into today 7/6 while browsing the forums... I've already canceled my sub and have 11 days left. Well see what happens between now and then.

I canceled last Monday. I really hope that it gets fixed today. I want to play this game for the PvP and the alliance war. I won't continue to pay for a broken product though - that's just a fact.

So, if it's fixed today I will re-up my sub and log in and have some fun. If it's still borked after patch I will be hearing from my guildies when it will be fixed and I will come back and try to play once they fix the bug.

However, I see no reason to try and play when after every single combat with a piece of siege equipment nearby causes me to drop to 2 FPS and forces me to relog.

Agrippa_Invisus · July 2014

I'd like to apologize for being part of the EP force blocking Valnas's push for emperor on Dawnbreaker last night.

That's if I was sorry.

Good fights. It was a close one, and you guys even had one flag of Chalman flipped before we were able to push you back off. We just had to hold out until blue made it to Aleswell and flipped it, and that was that.

Between the lag and Fireshot stomping puggies around the walls, it was a tough go. Good job, EP, in preventing the coronation.

Aeradon · July 2014

Were the DC scrolls hacked yesterday? We stood by the scroll with runes, caltrops and oils on the flag, and the EP were just standing outside the temple with meat bags and no intention to rush in.

Next thing we know, scroll was out of the temple in split second. Guards did not budge, players stood as they were, runes did not go off. None of us saw what happened or who took it, and we were all inside the temple, I was even looking at the scroll, it just disappeared in a blink of an eye and the notification poped up after.

It's bad that the FPS is close to negative. EP was already at 2 bars with no competition. Nobody was putting up much resistance to the EP keep rushes, and there weren't any numbers to combat the zergs. Not to mention DC has already lost all their keeps, we were wiped off the map with nothing but Brindle under attack, both gates were open.

So if it's a hack, why? It's like Suarez biting ears off for no reason.

Are you referring to the first scroll raid (about mid-late afternoon) or the one near midnight central that ultimately did not get the scroll out?

3fps and apparently no one else but me with negate. Much sad.

Chalman is AD's Achilles heel on this campaign...

Remember the Chalamo!

Glantris · July 2014

man, that defense at chalman was solid. longest fight over a keep i've even seen since coming to dawnbreaker.

fire shot just gliding like the beautiful fairy princess he is onto the top of the postern door = highlight of the night

Durandal · July 2014

Fun fights yesterday! After playing cat and mouse with the large AD raid deep in their territory all day, stopping their coronation at chalman last night was epic. Now if only I wasn't dragging ass at work today...who am I kidding..it was worth it.

Thank you.

When you guys infested that NW tower and we just couldn't break you out of it, we knew it was going to become an inner keep defense at that point. We tried to keep it out in the bailey as long as possible.

That was the longest yellow siege I've seen on Dawnbreaker and it was tough as heck. The longest was when we, EP, held Roe (don't ask) as the only inner circle keep against blue and we KNEW we weren't getting reinforcements from our faction as they kept bouncing off BRK/Chal. Held that for 2-3 hours until AD grabbed Alessia.

And yeah, I remember the Fireshot D-Leap up onto the shelf with the oil pots. He started stomping on people, so I just had them negate / soul strike / resto staff him once he dropped a banner. That ended that.
