Lol :P if you can't beat them join them! Gotta level my DC NB!
He might have switched home campaigns or something, but he was definitely there with Ithilwenn tonight.
I never found Tyndreos to be squishy. Ithilwenn, on the other hand, I fought a couple times and didn't notice I was fighting the Emperor since she didn't change her title.
I was bored being out numbered and sitting with nothing to do at fara so i decide to RP as a lemming todaywas fun pushing the limits of how long i could survive the overwhelming AD force
All i'v ever seen Ithilwenn do is sit in the back and cast snipe. I have never seen her do anything else. It does not surprise me that people dont find her an impressive emp.
then again i would not do much better. lol
It was definitely a refreshing change of roles for this one as well.
They hope you enjoyed a day in the shoes of this most humble and unskilled battlefield vulture, and hope the mallet stains will pop back out of your skull with little fuss.
@ Other peoples
As for Ithilwen. I'll say she does a good job of keeping on top of the overall strategic picture and thus fullfills the role of tippy top dog better than some who were more of a wrecking ball than a commander.
Not every Emperor has to be a one man reenactment of Thermopylae ya know. Kind of like how every flappity flap doesn't have to be a shield rushing reflect spammer.

She's smart enough to know that she's not speced out to be a front line fighter. There are many NBs that are, I know, but that's not the build that she's using. In spite of this she is consistently in the top 3 on the AD side in Haderus, so clearly she knows how to earn some AP. I agree that she's not able to use her empress powers the same way others do, and some may see that as a fault or a weakness, but she remains very successful and has a good core group of people to go to battle with.the emperor is supposed to lead, not sit in the back barking orders.
that is not leading, that is just being annoying and wasting zone chat space.
not saying Ithilwenn is doing this, but if she IS "leading" by hiding in the back and barking orders the whole time, then she is not worthy of the title.
Any player that is at the battlefileds and helping out the team to the best of their abilties earns my respect, no matter if they are a1vX perma block DK or a single target ganking NB.
I assume my views are similar to other peoples.

So...that fight with Emperor Malady & some pacters at Faregyl tonight? Ya know, the one where the stair way caved in, and we all spent over an hour trying to just command that narrow gap?
I believe that classifies as, off the hook.
Also managed to complete two bounty quests in all of that. ^_^

I doubt it. Thorn is the big prize because of the end-of-camp rewards. Most of what we're seeing is overflow because of the reduced pop cap. Besides, there's 2 other perfectly valid servers to use as well.

"What it's become"? What has it become? A better question is what WAS it before? It was AD's buff server, because AD didn't want competitive PVP on any other server but Thorn, and it was okay for AD to monopolize entire servers in season 1 and 2 of the old campaigns but not for any other factions. Completely disregarding the fact that [snip] had emperor for 2 MONTHS, [snip] after that for 4 weeks, [snip] for 2 weeks, [snip] for 2 weeks.
But when EP takes emp for even an hour or two its all hands on deck. It's "you're forcing us to pvp" or "you're ruining our AA runs and DSA runs". Does AD even stop to consider the consequences of monopolizing the server for so long? Hell members within the AD faction itself argued that there needed to be valid pvp in the server, that other factions needed to be able to take keeps. How else do you get the capture x farm quests and capture x scrolls and kill x players?
Gate camping? EP suffered through that for months on end. If we took a resource we'd see exponentially more players. We'd hold on for a while but it would always turn into a numbers game and we'd get crushed. We could've quit. We could've xfered to another server, or heck even Azura's Star since that was EP's 'buff server' at the time. Alot of EP actually quit the game due to the heavy infestation of bugs in the game, player-based exploits, and disgust at the mechanics required to remain competitive i.e. batmonkeys and blobbing.
So the tables turn and you just up and give up throw in the towel because you can't have things your way 24/7 7 days a week all through the campaign cycle. We didn't, nor should you. Stick it out. Grow a pair. Aspire to be stronger players, stronger people. PVP is reliant upon the ebb and flow of combat. Factions dominate then over extend then are beaten back and the cycle repeats. Some years you get the Steelers and the Broncos and some years you get the Saints and the Bears. The key is persistence and perseverance.
Don't forget so easily how members of AD begged us to help them dethrone someone who they dubbed ******* because they wanted emperor for their own members. So if you can't have emperor than no one can, is that it? Sour grapes, sore winners, and sore losers that's the impression I'm getting.
Go ahead and run to Thornblade or Chillrend or wherever you want, but I'll bet you won't have nearly as much fun as we have digging in for the longhaul despite all the times we'd capture Kingscrest and hold it there for 3 hours before getting overwhelmed by literally 5 to 1 odds.
I've seen a couple of the AD natives still hanging around. [snip], [snip], and [snip]. Keep making things hard for us. Learn from your defeats as well as your victories. You too[snip] you felt you had to gank me while I was looking at the AD leaderboards to see how many natives were still on the server. Don't take your ball and go home. Get mad, get even, and get stronger. That's the spirit of PVP; unceasing combat and riding that rocky bus all over the hills and valleys. That's what competition means.
Whoaa guys, hold your horses! First of all I like the fact that pvp has come to Haderus, what I don't like is being zerged to oblivion by EP, and yes we AD zerged you few times, but usually you had bigger numbers then we did (Surprise! Surprise!) And our guild was fighting against more EP then we had, ofc we had pugs and rarely pvers, so I admit that you were getting outnunmered at times but not always.
Conserning [snip], he wasn't gate camper, he was the one saying both in /zone and ts, to leave gates alone and give you some breath. Yes we were fighting at gates, but we refused to camp them.
And honestly he's tired, of constantly defending server against opponents with little help. He barely had any sleep during his emperorship, and even after he got dethroned, so you'd better stop ***-talking about ppl you don't even know.
I might stick to this server but after today tides have turned, I know all EP is happy to zerg the whole map in few hrs, agains like 15 AD at the end. I dearly hope that they will be fair competition between all 3 factions, without bringing Thorn zerg blobs. Campaign with great fights, respect between players, and no zerging others to Oblivion.
But that's just my dream...
This server has potential and it can be whatever we make it so lets make it a good server.
