State of the game ?.

Hello, some days ago i remembered there is priv serw of war. I played retail since realase till closing. Is it worth to spend some time here ?. I know dungs/raids are not in game atm, how lively/bug free is rvr/sc aspects of the game ?.

Hey - no dungeons / raids atm cause instances are not implemented yet. It´s not lively here cause its RoR not AoR but characters are mostly live like. But be aware - balance changes have been done here and will be done in future. RvR and scenarios are fine - somtimes the destro train rolls - more time my order train rolls . Give it a try - WAR Fans do love it.

Just give it a try, mate. It's free and at most it will cost you a bit of a headache installing and a few times out of your life
testing whether the server is to your liking or not. Everything that is to love like scenarios and open RvR is working just fine and the devs actually care and patch every other week. Only the first tier sets in T4 are available yet, and no city sieges, but else it's very much functional.

One thing though: You'll enjoy this game more if you play during the EU time slot. Prime time
is packed with enough players to get fast queues and action in the lakes. If you are in any other time slot, I highly recommend bringing 300 or so friends with you so you can populate the server!

Also: read the server rules. Botting and other such things will get you booted faster than you can look.

The game has a great nostalgic feeling to it and the maintainers are doing a great job fixing quests and bugs.
You tend to only remember the good parts when thinking back and after playing for a while you get flashbacks from like about order imbalance towards their "mirror" when order always come out better or equal to destruction.
However the maintainers have done several changes to make both factions equal. But they have a long way to go.
The game is most fun played with friends.

Order prefer ranged classes and hiding(defending) keeps even though they are more.
Destruction prefer melee and tanks and the AAO buff is a common buff on their side.

not sure if I should move this to intro subforum or not...

can't stress the first part enough: find a group of people you enjoy playing alongside and the game is vastly improved.

As to the second: while Order is, at any given time, at least 75% Skill Wizards, since the Great Magus Buff of 2016, destro is also mostly rdps now. At least when I play they are :p So if you want an easier time, play an rdps. If you're a MAN then play tank, and if you hate yourself, play mdps

If you are unsure about what class to play. Choose engineer. They can do everything all the other classes can do. (sort of).
Play as a tank engineer.
Play as a healer engineer.
Play as a support engineer.
Play as a DPS engineer (ranged or melee)

Orvr is not in a good state at The Moment. Community plays massiv more order than des. In prime time mostly 80-200% aoo for des since weeks. Execpt some days where forces are even and we have nice fights and fun

Why do you recommend classes to him when he said he played until shut down?
Gotta show that compulsion in every thread you can. Where did the engi touch you?
