Why do people who wern't playing at game release feel the need to comment on the balance of the game at that time, as if they'd know?


Hibernia was, for the longest time, the WEAKEST realm in the game. Mythic even made a statement about this on the herald somewhere - way back, talking about "improving the impression that hibernia is the 'red headed step child' of daoc".


Midgard and it's chain stunning healers, flanked by omnipotent thanes were ruling most servers, *including lancelot* near release.


Hell, when i began this game Hibernia was barely even finished. I remember merchants in Mag Mell selling "studded" armor, such was the nature of the hasty Copy + Paste release era hiberna.


Midgard and Albion both got itemized before we did, and leveling in both of those realms was infinately easier as well.


Trying to say Hib has been overpowered or even strong, or even DECENT since release just makes you look like an idiot.

Only Hibernia would consider dropping assassins over a wall on door 3 a "Prime Time" raid. I'm sure the looters during an earthquake boast to their friends about taking stuff in broad daylight too. You people love challenges remember?

I'm on page 13 mom!

Its a good tactic why are you still whining about it.

Mistwraith thats incorrect......


When you were running amuck on lance, Hib owned the majority of the relics across all realms... I looked it up one time...was about 50-60% hib owned, since the chanter nerf, and spellcrafted armor that tide has turned to alb/mid owned relics....

Frenzy was (and still is) overpowered...not Zerker base dmg.

Nadagast to stop posting information that makes sense.


p.s. how did Sad to see what has become of Warder Zerg turn into zerker nerf discuss!

I had Round Table Pizza for lunch, it was tastey.

Sorry TK, we have nothing to prove to you or anyone. We are not a gank group guild. We didn't level up 8 classes to run together every day by the same pool of people to wtfpwn everyone.


KoS is a large guild with many skilled players in it. We build balanced groups from this. Sometimes it's melee heavy. Sometimes it's caster heavy. Occasionally, it's healer heavy or even stealther heavy. We don't build groups at certain times to go play --


-- that's gank group. We've done that 2x in the time that I have been playing lancelot. The first was the original slut group, but even then it wasn't a set-group. I wasn't in taht group, or even KoS. I was in the 2nd one, however. It almost tore us apart. Our guild is not a gank guild. Running a gank group in this guild goes against it's very nature. The only thing similar is that we run 8, period.


We build groups when we have them. When key players log, we try to replace them. If you can't, there is no reason to run out to emain and RvR.


I will not RvR without a bard I have confidence in if I know there are good enemies out. Why? Because the bard is so important to the group. No other class in the game gives groups the utility that the bard does. It is the most important class for a group in DAoC. Speed, end, CC, heals, buffs, rezzes, supplemental CC, curing mezzes (only hib class that has it, unless u find a rare mentalist with 28 in mentalist [good luck - i can name one]).


Would TK run to emain without a Sorceror, Paladin, 2nd healer and minstrel?


We have some good bards. Unfortunately, we can't force them to play a video game when they have something in common with the rest of us...well, most of the rest of us...real lives. If they can't stay on -- they can't stay on.


We don't avoid anybody. We don't build groups for anybody. We don't pvp to farm mad rp's or to fight specific people. I say it again: TK, we have nothing to prove to you and thus will not make a gank group to come out and directly combat you. If you are out and we are too -- awesome. I love fighting you guys. If we are out and you aren't -- why can't you log on and fight us? Real life is the problem?


Yeah, happens to us, too. Hypocritical at all?


You can only play during primetime, it seems. Does that mean you can only farm hib and mid noobs for rp's? When KoS shows up, you fight them...but almost always the fight gets spoiled by one side or the other having allies intervene.


That almost never happened in the mornings when we ran the gank group that Frec is so disgruntled about. We, alone, would take out the SAKURA zerg as we called it. 2-3 groups of rr5-6-7 and yes, even an 8 or two in there. rr10 dragoo's stealth group in with it. Whatever.


TK, I'm afraid that with all the talk YOU have been doing, it is YOU that NEEDS to do one thing:


put up or shut up.


Come find us. Build your best gank group to tear us apart. Good luck figuring out exactly our strategy, as our groups change day-to-day. You can't build a group to directly defeat us, because our group's make-up could be completely different than the last time you saw it. If you hear in your /as that we are out, then come out and back up what you have been saying. Can't do it because you don't have a full guild group? No sorceror? No minstrel or cleric? OMG, you are avoiding us! Cowards!!


Sound like anybody you know?


afk.
