Warhammer Online / Re: HELLOOO ANYBODY THERE......?

Yeah, I'm in Ginnunga. Lots of good people there, feel free to send an application (make sure to mention me as a friend in the guild), but I think we're only recruiting healers right now. You could also check with our allies, Phoenix Legion and Soul Pact. Ginnunga alone has about five groups regularly running Lost Vale, and we put together alliance warbands of around 10ish people on weekdays, and almost two warbands on weekends. I see Artheric playing regularly... he's in Relaxed Mercenaries, I think, who seem pretty chill (and they're recruiting, judging from the forums). Warhammer really shines from being on an active server, and it shines even more when being in a good guild.

Alot of people are kinda waiting around for the 1.2 career changes (lots of boosts in there), the Slayer and Lands of the Dead-stuff... I expect Karak-Hirn to be a bit more lively then. Still, that didn't stop us from breaking into the Inevitable City this Sunday.

So I've gotta into Ginnunga. It's fun, but it's always hard to get into a group full of landed vets that have known each other pretty much since launch. ORVR really is a different experience when you're running with an organized group on Teamspeak - we've been experimenting with Alliance-warbands with lots of AOE-spec RPDS-classes... shit goes down FAST. Also got into Sigmars Crypts and Warpblade Tunnels for the first time this week.

...for many a grind is a grind is a grind.

Oh yeah. Mythic really didn't live up to their promises about a grind-free game. I still can't bring myself to seriously commit to an alt, mostly due to that soul-crushing grind from level 30 and upwards.

...a tacticless zergrush which it seems T4 is.

Agreed, it really is. To me it seems like alot of the zerg-warfare comes from order trying to mimic destros tactic of only running in one big group. Too bad it's so damn effective, with most RVR-areas being very small and having lots of chokepoints.

Oh and then of course the pve side of it, its fun, but why on earth does it have to tie into the pvp side (sacking etc?)

Works the other way around, too - I'm mostly interested in PVP, but I still have to do PVE-stuff to get better gear, since greater ward-level PVP-gear only comes from taking fortresses, which never happens. This really isn't a game where you can focus on one side of the game if you want to be really successful - you even kinda have to get into crafting if you want access to the (in my opinion overpowered) potions and talismans.

Ugh, lots of whine here, but I still enjoy PVP alot. At least from a BW point of view, it's so much fun to cruise around the edges of a group and see the damage-numbers fly.

I have decided to leave Hands of Justice, mostly due to reasons of low activity in the guild and lack of T4-players. I have been running with some Ginnunga warbands lately, and talking to some people from Phoenix Legion. I'll be staying in for a while longer until I know where I'll get in. If anyone knows an active T4-focused guild that's looking for Bright Wizards, let me know.

I've been having tons of fun with you guys, and I hope to see you in game and on the forums. Best of luck.

Someone estimated about 300 players in the area. Really heavy lag, and destro eventually gave up on trying to get the fort. Really a shame this endgame feature isn't playable right now... but then again, it doesn't happen that often. I took screenshots, though.

Gathering up for the storm. We were waiting on this BO in Black Crag when Reik locked:



These were the destro that were guarding the BACK door of the fortress:



And this is the front gate:

I think Hrodgar was there for some of it. I played most of sunday morning and afternoon, when we were trying to flip Reikland. We were literally 1% away from locking it, when destro locked Dragonwake, came pouring into Reikland and took everything we have. That's when I logged off. When I came on today order had pushed them back all the way back to Chaos Wastes and Black Crag, as well as having retaken Dragonwake. Some major glory-moments for order.

Warhammer Online / Re: Rerolling on Med population servers

Yeah, looks like it. My characters are actually avaliable for transfer now, but only to some spanish server. Good to see more people coming to us!

Just got a popup when entering the server saying that Karak-Hirn population is low, and characters can be transferred. Can't transfer from my profile screen yet, but if it comes up I think we should strongly consider it.

If we transfer, we should probably do some research first on where folks are going, and what servers have the closest to equal order-destro population.

Let's revive this shit.

Semi-hectic RVR action. Check out the flying RP being Marauder-pulled and trying to heal someone. Also prime example of Njaldurs leadership style:



I love how you can trace the route of the fighting on this one:



After a full day of slaughter, KotBS stack their victims neatly:



...but they do need some work on burying their dead dark elf hookers:
