Emain crap (big rant inside) - Phoenix Freeshard

Hibster player here.
Formed my less than optimal 8 men pug (we have no players on hibs, so no mutch choice) and run my way to emain: we sos into an alb caster party and in 10 seconds another alb caster party engages. We kill a 4 or 5 and we rell.
We buff again and run our 5 minutes long to emain: there again 2 FG alb sticked together + random adders.
Third attempt: we engage a mid party, 1 alb party adds and than a second one.

we rell and now I cry deeply and ask if anyone knows the discord address of one of the member of this alb party.

Sad thing is that this 2 albs party were nicely setted for 8v8 and players were good, so, why the fuck do you have to add and zerg like this? than people wonders why noone plays hibernia or the population is dropping and dropping.

yeah had this too and I just ran skald/sm duo ran into those 2 alb grps twice near mmg sadly mids get the action too fast compared to the hibs which have to run 7mins to emain, and mids dont always have the numbers to beat a 16slot so we logged aswell a shame that some people feel the need to run that many especially when most what they do is zerg solos and smallman

wouldnt be so much of a problem if you could leave your portkeep through 2 ways and your example is also a reason why I dont even bother building a fg just 1 of many reasons

I heard couple of hours ago a friend from midgard who was trying to fill a pug party with flump but there were no people avaible.

Sat 11 May 2019 10:13 PM by stinsfire

Also experienced this and usually it is albs. Was playing EU morning, not a single FG mids out in emain. Only solos and a few small mans, but albs basically ran circles with 2-3fg sticked through emain murdering everything in sight.

I truly don't understand the attractiveness of this gameplay, but what do I know.. Some people prefer to kill enemies who are outnumbered 10 times.. others enjoy playing PvDoor for weeks when mids are in TG and avoiding any pvp fights vs the counterzerg in order to proceed playing PvDoor.(Hello, pilz.. OMEGALUL)

People are weird.

One of these posts again.
How many times has your fg encountered a small man fight and didnt add 8vx ? My pretty accurate guess, judging from what I see on a daily basis, would be 0.
Not getting added is not your right, but a privilege that you MIGHT earn if you get zerged over and over and over, and still stick to not adding with a specific group of players that the majority of the server will eventually realize is playing fair( e.g Requiem from uth1 ). Until then , stop complaining , you are not special and everyone, more or less is getting zerged here. But only a few are complaining, and it reeks of hypocrisy.

TLDR:

NOT a stealth rant! Well done <clap>

Sure there are times when its just shit and you should just loggout to avoid the frustration but 3 times in a row and 7+ mins to travel ? People maybe sticked arround for that when they were kids and had nothing else to play and lots of time but nowadays we got options not many will stick arround for that. Maybe not many complain but also plenty of people leave without writing here. I know a few players which left already and it started like this on live the problem is if some leave others will follow because it gets harder and harder to build/find grps you like to run with. Soloing isnt even an option at certain times on none stealth. So I would not disregard some rants so easiely. Hopefully the devs will find a way to get people back in action fast, maybe that molvik event next weekend will become permanent if its a success I am really looking forward to it at least you cant easiely camp the portkeeps even tho I bet it will be a zergfest, maybe time to respec my rm to rc for that.

Sat 11 May 2019 11:22 PM by bigne88

Update:
just returned at home, joined my party went emain and got zerged by multiple mid's and alb's zergs.

This is fking crap

The problem is the 5 minute run. I'm an alb and i fully support a porter.

During alb you can port and albs have to run. During mid task you can port and mid has to run.

So go to alb on alb task, mid to mid task, and cap a flag during your task.

Also, try and take DC and keep it.

This is not the point man, I'm ok with walking 5 minutes to get to emain to have some 8v8. I'm not ok when I have to keep relling becasuse of the alb zerg there.
Even Flump pug party had problems finding people today, cuz everyone was pissed of that horrendous alb zerg.
And bare with me: that was not a normal BG zerg of keeptakers,no! They were 2 nicely setup caster parties that were clearly sticking together.

Even Philosopher Kings, the best 8v8 party (back on hib) are avoiding emain like hell.

Shoutout to all the mid and hib small men and 8v8 players: let's disert Emain and lets meet on odin's gate.

Another rant: the amount of stealthers is fki g ridicolous! Even if you are having your fair 8v16 you will have every kind of useless fuckers archers.
Devs should put a cap on the amount of stealthers in FZ.

I dunno if this is above board knowledge, but the best alb 8 mans go to briefine to 8v8. There’s an understanding to not jam there, and if there is a jam the original two 8 mans stop fighting each other and hit the jammers. I’d suggest going there for 8v8 if that’s what you want. Organize matches on discord. I’ve seen Torms group and many others operate this way. Obviously tougher for mids/albs cause they have to get out of Emain when zergs are high.

Emain is a free for all. Jam away, Zerg away. Game is rvr not 8v8. Luckily there’s an option for that mostly.

Im running guild 8 men as well as pugs 8men (hib) and what I can tell you is that we share a common line of conduct / etiquette: never add our few hib fellas if they are having a fair 8v8.

Tought we often add smallmen and surelly we kill any stealthers that we can .

I don't know about the other parties but I don't think that hibernia has the numbers to add anything

Are there any non adding groups in mid and alb?

Thanks, I will keep it in mind.
Tough the 2 sticked alb party of this afternoon came also in brefine and, as I wrote, they zerged our 8v8 against mids.

Sun 12 May 2019 3:15 AM by Vkejai

I for one have not seen any etiquette here by anyone . If I am solo , small man or 8 man , all I see is enemies with greater numbers steam rolling.

And to be honest that's the way it should be. Your an enemy so you will die.

Sun 12 May 2019 4:18 AM by kmark101

Game was much better when the tasks rotated and you got only rewards in the task zone. Game was actually entertaining and everchanging, lots of different setups fought in or near the task zones, the scenery change was great, it was almost perfect... Now it's stale old boring emain zerg 24/7...

Sun 12 May 2019 8:41 AM by lurker

It’s the same everywhere dude...

Try running small man. I run pretty much exclusively small man / duo / solo.

Yesterday we had a 2v2 in brefine near the hub turn in spot. 2 mins into the fight a hib 8 man guild group appears. Initially looks like they will let us fight as they stand back and watch. Moments later they obviously decide they want those 60rps each too much and we are ganked by them.

So we run to Hadrian’s, running down the road between mile gates.... insta amnesia zerged by another guild 8 man (hib).

Many times in emain the mid zerg is strong and smashing everything 32vX with no resistance. Other times it’s the albs doing the same. Stay out of email at all costs in my oppinion. Emain is just a zerg fest.

There is no respect here generally and if there is it’s hard earned, especially as a small man group.

Don’t run emain, don’t add and you may eventually get some breaks but I wouldn’t count on it. Also helps if you guys running 8 mans give small mans a break and let them fight, lord knows your reputation will increase this way!

Sun 12 May 2019 11:14 AM by Anelyn77

Emain was always a zerg fest even on live servers years ago, sure you had dedicated 8man on each realm that would not add on other 8v8, but there are like 50+ peeps in emain on a basis, and the place is small, also many peeps just want instant action and gratification so red = dead until they are dead themselves.

From this perspective - and only this - NF was more manageable as far as 8v8 went, plus you had a ton more action in various places, including easier sieges (even if simply to draw more peeps to that area etc).

I did yesterday, a mid group, only group members name I remember was Fey. I was fighting a minst and they waited for the fight to finish.

3 hib grps enjoying 8(16)v1 right now

im getting my eyes checked soon

Sun 12 May 2019 12:47 PM by Kaziera

You are right, emain is crap.

if you want less zerg, go HW or OG. Did i mention the run is quite long there for Mids/Albs and they STILL do it ?

Thu 16 May 2019 1:07 PM by Milksteak

Instead of crying about not getting even fights try to become a Zerg buster grp/guild. There is no aoe cap in this game so at certain choke points a group can win while being heavily outnumbered. Use the terrain to ur advantage like past successful armies in human kind. Think of it as a challenge and it become more fun and more rewarding when you pull it off. If everything was easy in this game ppl would lose interest in the game, again look for the challenge. Besides daoc has ALWAYS had zerging deal with it or find another game.

Thu 16 May 2019 1:30 PM by kratoxin

You died in an RvR zone, man that sucks should post more about it. Rather than opening your mind and taking a few flags to port closer etc. when the task is available.. or if Emain is to zergy go OG or HW.... i run with a lot of 8 mans on Midgard and make out good in fights. As for sneaks, why try to put a cap on them? People enjoy the class let them play the class they like rather than make more people quit... lol Sneaks are annoying yes but with no healer on them they are easy kills.

Devs should put a cap on the amount of stealthers in FZ.

Early on I was in emain with my low rr ranger and added on an 8 v 8 outside of Crauch. I was politely asked by a realm mate not to add onto their fights. Now my typical reaction is I defend my frontier and if enemies are in my frontier, they are fair game (your thoughts may vary). However since this individual was polite I told him I would respect his wishes. A little later I was in a 1 on 1 fight with another stealther. The mid 8 man swoops in and rolls me. The previous hib group runs by and refuses to rez me.
So the point...no good deed goes unpunished. People complain about adds from stealthers or small men but they have no problem rolling over those solos with FGs...even if they are trying not to be adders. Welcome to the chaos of war.

I understand your frustration and I'm sure I'd feel the same.
What I ask you and other archers: whats the fun of leeching RPs or ruining a fair fight from safe distance to people that are putting effort and time of building and running an 8 men?
It must be really big fun to play archer class during sieges and zerg BGs, but if you have to gank expers and add 8v8, I feel so sorry for your life.
The same goes for FGs of stealthers camping gates to kill soloers.
This kind of "greefing" (pass me the term) is pretty miserable, especially cuz we are on a private server of an old game.

Stealth groups were fun on 2004 when there were plenty of servers and players, now, greefing on your own comunity, is not good because here there will be no new players.

Pretty much this. The whole zerg mentality and killing solos repeatedly with more than one person has cause the population to drop over tremendously in a few weeks. Enjoy living through the same problems live did, on a much shorter scale because for some reason everyone on this server is hellbent on shutting it down.

Same goes for every guild 8 man out there rolling over every small man they see surely?

I grantee you they all do it... watch their streams...

One Moment: "Oh look at this disgusting zerg, oh these nubs"
Next Moment: "Small Man Fight!! Go get em boys!!"

BTW: I want fair / respected fights. But these 8v8 guilds do seem to look down on others for doing exactly what they do... just on a different scale.

This is another thing man.
An archer in emain (or wathever) sits there waiting exactly for the moment to leech and griefe and, thanks to stealth mechanic, avoid any real fight.

In the other hand, to different degrees, every visible player knows that if he goes solo he might be killed by a duo, a duo knows that might be killed by a trio, an 8 men knows that he will eventually get zerged by 2 full groups etc.
Stealthers avoid all of this and can just pick their fights (actually other people fights, cuz they would lose any 1v1) and just grief.
To my eyes it is a pathetic behaviour, but isy personal opinion and Im sure I can be wrong.
Sure is that I can come here and have a rant!
Like for istance I ranted so mutch yesterday night when there was a stupid FG of alb stealthers sitting on hmg in odins killing only soloers or duo and vanishing if 3+ players were coming by.

Thu 16 May 2019 4:25 PM by Aeonstar

I almost had a decent 1v1 with an infiltrator 2 RR's higher than my baby hero just now. Then his friend added. This servers players are garbage for the most part. Really saddening.

Because these people, who take effort and time to build and run an 8man, will almost always(99.9%) add this ranger or any other stealther if they catch him fighting 1v1, 2v1, 1v2 etc. Whats striking and infuriating is not the adding( that everyone does) but your hypocrisy and the fact you think you are ENTITLED to not get added but also add pretty liberal on all small mans and soloers that get in your way. Seriously, just stop .

Thu 16 May 2019 8:16 PM by chryso

You are complaining about 2v1 odds?
I keep getting zerged by full groups when I run out solo. That is 8v1.

I understand your frustration and I'm sure I'd feel the same.
What I ask you and other archers: whats the fun of leeching RPs or ruining a fair fight from safe distance to people that are putting effort and time of building and running an 8 men?
It must be really big fun to play archer class during sieges and zerg BGs, but if you have to gank expers and add 8v8, I feel so sorry for your life.
The same goes for FGs of stealthers camping gates to kill soloers.
This kind of "greefing" (pass me the term) is pretty miserable, especially cuz we are on a private server of an old game.

Stealth groups were fun on 2004 when there were plenty of servers and players, now, greefing on your own comunity, is not good because here there will be no new players.

Because these people, who take effort and time to build and run an 8man, will almost always(99.9%) add this ranger or any other stealther if they catch him fighting 1v1, 2v1, 1v2 etc. Whats striking and infuriating is not the adding( that everyone does) but your hypocrisy and the fact you think you are ENTITLED to not get added but also add pretty liberal on all small mans and soloers that get in your way. Seriously, just stop .

Yea I never really cared about being added. Infact 1-2 enemies jumping in made it alot of fun sometimes. I mostly duo, sometimes solo. Being rolled by an 8man comes with the game. Never really bothered me. I just dont like it when those same 8mans stop fighting and let the enemy kill the adders before re-engaging. Has happened to me quite a few times.

I will always kill any stealther with my 8v8, all day everyday!

I dont think there is a better way for someone to own himself. Congratulations.

Doesn't get much better than that

Sadly the hypocrisy is probably lost on him

Lot of peeps tried to transform this game in a 8v8 but forgot it's not, so crying about been add is as hilarious as 20y ago.

It's a slow death and the server can be saved but won't be, the devs created this with their mod decisions. They are great at PvE modding, RvR not so much.

Did you have an animist? If you did that is why you got zerged. Oh and welcome to emain!

There cant be a complaint thread without me getting involved. I been soloing on my SM a lot so cant out run groups. Last night I had a alb guild group (6 of 8 all the same cloaks) running head first at a mid group (singular) and made a 45 degree turn to chase me down and kill me. The mid group turned after the alb group did. It just another example of RPs > competition.

Honestly no not a chance. The code I live by is as follows: ***Please not as it has changed since the circa 2004 version of the game based on QoL changes***

Situations not to add on
1. I do not add in a 1vs1. If my real mate dies I will then attack the target. (this is due to the fact the enemy got his reward for killing his opponent but my realm mate gets his part of the kill based on QoL changes)

2. I do not add in any fair fight. 2vs2, 4vs4, 8vs8 etc....

3. I do not add if my realm has the advantage and the numbers are close. 1vs2 2vs3 etc....

Situations I do add on
1. If I get caught in the mid zerg I will face role over what ever is in the way. (I try to avoid this but every now and then ill get caught at a MG and help clear out. Not a fan but I don't feel I have much impact on a 32vs X fight.

2. If I my realm mates are out numbered in any fashion.

3. I will add if my realm is steam rolling another realm toon. 5vs1 8vs2 This is mainly task credit related as it has no outcome on the fight.

I routinely get criticized by realm mate for much of these rules and gotten a lot of very mean tell but I feel like this is the way I would want to be treated and I know what makes me angry as solo player so I feel its fair to apply these rules to others. Just my 2 cents.

It's good to have a code of ethics for things, like how repeat killing of a green con player who is trying to xp is very lame. More people on here should have respect for 8 v 8s and 1 v 1 etc. I had some friar who was part of an alb 8 man run up to me and try to fight me last night while her group wanted to just keep going, as soon as they realized I was winning the 1 v 1 on Yamashita they all zerg me. Even the people who didn't wanna kill me at first ended up zerging me cuz they didn't want their over zealous friend to die. At least respect the 1 v 1 if your friend thinks she can take me, bailing your friend out counts as an even worse loss than being killed by me for your friend in my opinion since she couldn't handle it. This happened in Odins near AMG though not emain, I /waved and stopped fighting by the way when you guys zerged me, I won't honor cheesery such as this with any extra effort when it happens, I'll just do some random emote to show you guys that you aren't deserving of a duel with me.

How do you think 90% of the LE in here got it? Green con expers...

Sat 8 Jun 2019 12:17 AM by Fooj Fujiyama

What does LE stand for? hehe

Sat 8 Jun 2019 7:44 AM by Tarticus74

On my stealther that is 99 percent solo I respect 1 Vs 1 fights unless I know the person is a know adder and I have a big list

When you see groups fighting will I add damn right I will unless I recognise the 8 man and know they respected my fights most pugs will add on anything so simply I will add on group fights as there the first to roll over solos and duos fighting.

Even PK chased me miles with insta amnesia just for there 80rps each and I was solo what's that tell you

It's rvr just release rebuff and get on with it

We buff again and run our 5 minutes long to emain: there again 2 FG alb sticked together + random adders.

Hahaa, that has to be a lie.. 2fg albs sticked + adders? /shockface
They would never play like that...

Let me guess.. was it around 'AMG' the new capital of Albion? Clown realm of all time..

Mon 10 Jun 2019 1:39 PM by Snakejuice
