Re: Nordland and the never locking for Destro Syndrome

"Never" locks because it seems that Order runs more SC premades.

That or the Destro zerg is feeding too much at the warcamp.

Re: [Destrp] Best DPS?

Witch Elves can tear up DPS but you have to be very good at the class, or else you will get screwed.

Maguses can net absurd damage totals, but only in sustained damage situations.

Re: [Blackguard] 2H only?

1. 2h BG is doable if you are playing for a specific role. If you go high toughness then the armor drop of FO isn't very relevant. You lose significant damage from not stacking STR, but so it goes. The 2h inherent DPS will balance most of that.

2. The main reason why people criticize 2h BG is ...

Re: [BlackGuard]Worth leveling?

Personally I would recommend one of two general loadouts on a BG:

1. High STR high WSK 0 toughness sword + shield build that uses block and shield abilities.

2. High Toughness build with a 2h.

Note: these builds are focused on scenario-scale or smaller.

Blackguards using the toughness tactic can ...

Re: Medallions on area lock?

Gear is a carrot,

One of the core reasons why DAOC and WAR were successful with with their PvP implementations is that "99%" competitive gear was ubiquitous and easily attained through most of the games' lifespans.

A *minor* and inconsequential power increase for gear is a useful 'carrot' if a ...

So this thing called RoR ...

I heard about RoR a long time ago but it sounded like it was really alpha-ish. I was reminded about it recently and decided to give it a spin -- I've found it fantastic so far. Logged on, hit level 2, jumped into PvP and my blood was already boiling for some action.

I used to play on Badasslands on ...

Re: Medallions on area lock?

Oh I wouldn't expect welfare gear just because higher tier stuff comes into play. The point is working for your gear. You think Conqueror is going to be any easier?

I was never a fan of significant artificial barriers to competition.

I don't understand the concept of "working" for gear in a game ...

Re: Debolster Infographic

Two miscellaneous questions on the de-bolster:

1. What are the normal level caps now for T1?

2. Does the high level player who gets debolstered lose access to their higher-rank abilities? Or do they retain those (and that's why they de-bolster down to an enforced 'level 9' set of gear, even though ...

Re: RoR Career Builder

My vague memory says each point invested increased baseline damage values by 3%. But I don't know if that's accurate.
