Thornblade (NA) Alessia Bridge

In the wake of the uproar about Forward Camps, I would like to offer a different perspective. Last night there were some extremely fun fights on the Alessia Bridge. Fighting on the bridge may extremely inefficient way to make AP but it was a welcomed change to the unfulfilling meta that PvP had devolved into.

There were many open field fights too which are much more fun than punching holes through a keeps and lag-zerging the keep into submission with an unlimited supply of zerglings.

    Hear hear!

    Yup. Was great last night. Sure there's a bit of horsing around, but the back and forth push was nice.

    Interesting to see all the DC heavy-hitters too.... Hova was there (and no impulse in sight!!!) and there's this german-sound-name guy from AD who's a tough nail to kill... and how people still put oils on the ground lol...

    Was lotsa fun.

    I don't think Mrs. Jones was ever a Vamp. Just Hova and AOE and some of the others.

    Lol she was only a vamp for maybe 2 weeks of the game total.

    Although, all 9 of us online last night turned into werewolves.

    no. 10% extra DPS after a heavy attack is better.

    Ah, I remember bridge fights. Things had become too routine, with always taking the same resource, setting the FC, and sieging the keep from there.

    It was fun at first, but got boring quickly. Push to Sej, get chased back to Alessia. Push to Sej, get chased back to Alessia. Just the same thing over and over.
    The real fun was taking the inner ring to get emp for Zerg N Stein while trying to not use camps and everyone really focused on not dying.

    Yeah, if PvP has become fighting at Alessia Bridge then that is a sad state of affairs because that is exactly what we Veterans would avoid doing pre 1.5 patch.

    You know things are bad when you consider going back to play PvE...

    Hahaha I couldnt stop laughing was just trying to leap from person to person dressed as a peasant turning into a wolf. I only died 15 times last night but it seemed like a million. Half the fun was running around like a chicken with my head cut off and accidentally spam fearing no one as a wolf, or stopping in the middle of a zerg to try and feast on a player whose name I recognized. Turns out seducer isnt exactly great for WW :smiley: haha

    but ya good fun and fights out there! we are going to come back out now that we are going back to normal and look forward to seeing how this open ground pvp is going to work out. I already like a lot of parts about 1.5 and I think as people get over the fact that hey, you may have to ride a bit to a fight they will become more agressive again.

    We had a blast but I think the next few weeks will be fun and challenging adapting new strats/builds for a lot of us.

    Unstable wall for instance is something I love and have used for a while now for very specific applications but seeing it everywhere and used poorly so suddenly is meh

    Alessia bridge was a lot of fun last night, many lol's to be had.

    The top of the bridge was just full of the sound of arrows being shot, and reflected back, fun times.
    Been here since Feb 2014 - You'd think I'd be half reasonable at this game by now...

    For a change? This is the first thing I have whined about. You don't know what you are on about, mate.

    I can list all the things I have whined about by looking at my post history, are you ready for the MASSIVE list?

    1) Complete removal of FC's.
