Why does it seem like only LoD, Sinister, and Varangian Guard are claiming cities

[nessan]

Are the guild that pathetic on this server that only 3 guilds are claiming villages?

edit: yes, I fail on thread name

[Musent]

Are the guild that pathetic on this server that only 3 guilds are claiming villages?

Because not every guild has seige hammers?

[clockwork23]

What he said.

There aren't very many clans with access to siege hammers as of yet. Things will start spicing up when more clan weaponsmiths hit 75.

god you're an idiot. Most people are farming to build the cities instead of feeding to a weaponsmith.

Yes, the "guild that pathetic that only 3 guilds are claiming villages". No, your fail is unfortunately far more advanced than you think.

Pretty much this.

Those 3 are the ones exploiting the most Deathless Mages for bulk golem sparkstones

[Tribaja]

You don't need siege hammers to claim a city that isn't owned by anyone?

You just have to get into the city limits, be a general or higher rank officer of a clan and use a clan sonte.


Get your shit straight.

(If you actually mean taking cities from other clans, I guess that they just have more time to exploit/farm mobs all day and thus have more siege hammers and shit.)

He means fucking villages you baddies

Its the same thing as last time, all the other guilds are busy skilling up and will crush them as soon as they get to where they want in skills.

[braveliltoaster]

They had thier shit together better than most. big fuckin whoop. I say goodjob for getting hammers so fast

[fay2dumb]

No exploits needed. We farmed up a weaponsmith before anything else. Had our guy to 75 before our city had a bank. Its called dedication. 20 guys supplying one guy with mats. And us and a few other clans are reaping the benefits of it while the rest of the server catches up.

And no, hammers are not for sale.

since deathless mages are the only source of GOLEM sparkstones.....
since you need SOO many siege hammers to claim a village, it must only be clans exploiting TONS of them.....

If you still need to exploit deathless mages to kill them you're doing it wrong.

I find this statement ironic. I'm sure anyone that isn't a non-factor on NA would probably agree.

In no way was I saying that anything was bad to feed to a weaponsmith. I was stating that he was an idiot for assuming everyone else was nonfactors for not claiming villages. We personally claimed 5 yesterday.

[Cetra[EQ]]

This leads to the question, why aren't other guilds waiting on the villages to go vulnerable and killing the siege hammer groups, taking their hammers and claiming the villages for themselves? Is NA-1 really that barren, or do a few guilds really have such a big knowledge advantage over the others?

Well, at this point, without true forge weapon the benefit of claiming the village doesn't really outweigh the cost of the siege hammers mats it seems.

So far we've only had two of our villiages taken by other clans before they timed out. I think one of our groups ran into some geared PvP late last night, but the opposing group bailed out in the end. No losses on our side.

It would be nice if there was more guilds out PvPing and looking to claim villiages. Its a lot more fun then ganking outside newbie towns. There's too many guilds blind recruiting newbies and are not collectively working together to gear up, build up, and learn how to survive in this game. I hope the new players leave these mass recruitment guilds and not get burned out with Darkfall because some asshats don't know how to properly run a guild.

[Ssly]

running out of stam jogging from one starter city to another must suck

[Rivers27]

It's funny, all these poor new NA players get to learn pvp from scrubs like Sinister, Exodus Syndicate, LoD, and Varangian Guard. This servers gonna be such a fucking cakewalk when the EU transfers show up.

More clans would be out fighting for villages if more clans subscribed to the mass recruitment sentiment you're taking a shot at, yet ironically enough - a lot of clans haven't been able to grind out 75 WS yet because they simply don't have the number of people to go farm massive amounts of wood and ore. I think you'll find with a little more time, you'll see a lot more clans out PvP'ing for villages. Don't take the quiet last few days as a sign of people being unwilling to fight, I'd say it's more along the lines of our weaponsmith is progressing, slowly but surely.

[Rhade]

Sick Bastards has the ability to take villages on Day 6 of NA-1. All your villages belong to us now =)

Our clan has 30 members. We had 20 members on day one, all rerolls. It doesn't take that many people logging and mining to level one person. If anything its harder for the people mass recruitment to get this shit done. Try convincing a day 1 player to chop at a tree for 2 days straight.

But at least Shipwreck Pirates is starting to claim villiages. More competition/PvP for us. :)

Its funny that you claim that those taking villages are just zerg recruit guilds considering we hado nly about 20-some people in the guild when we started capturing villages. Hell, even now we are only at about 30 people as we try to be more tight nit than many of the zerg recruiting guilds that are appearing on NA1. Although numbers always help, I think that when a 20-30 man guild is the first to make seige hammers on the server (also the first on EU1 mind you :sly: ), I think people should stop calling village captures a number game.

[Dawgdoc]

I love how the people who stayed behind in EU-1 enjoy talking smack when the majority of them had either hacked skills, or acid pooled defenses, mega macro'd skills prior to regs/etc.....and on and on.

As well as they all had uber gear compared to everyone else due to getting lucky and having a favorable location on the map with a ready supply of mobs that dropped loot that was disproportionate and overpowered.

Thats not going to be the case if EU players transfer. They can macro their little hearts into oblivion but AV has not said 1 definitive word about the transfer restrictions. I have a feeling there is going to be a world of 'qq' from everyone who believes they are going to transfer some uber-op skilled toon from EU to NA. Just my personal opinion, but I think the restrictions are most likely going to be very harsh.

The field is leveled. Come to Erinthel already and stop talking trash. Grow a set and roll on NA otherwise you are cowards.

Don't remember stating that those taking villages are inherently zerg guilds (Edit: Nope, just re-read my post, didn't call anyone a zerg guild. Imagine that.)
Don't put words in my mouth -- I said that it's easier for bigger, open recruitment guilds to get things leveled and built faster. Let's save the PvP for in-game, and not imagine offenses somewhere where it hasn't been given and PvP here. I never called any clan out on being a zerg clan -- Reading too deep into things, taking things out of context and looking for injury where none was given doesn't help anyone besides people trying to start a conflict, something I'm personally not interested in at the moment.

Logically speaking, you are pretty delusional if you think that numbers don't give an advantage when power-leveling a clan smith. More players = more gatherers = more resources = faster crafting = faster 75 smith = faster hammers. It is, in some respects, a numbers game, assuming that all people are playing 20 hours a day and sleeping 4, like most are.

Yeah, sounds about right. Should just take him and a few of his friends, against most of the inhabitants. Usually doesn't take us any more than 5 or 6 to take on the 11, 12+ you guys bring.

No, actually, we're the Black Shields.

NA-1 is truly like a reverse mirror world. Since the population is so small, the big clans pretty much rule the server. Exodus has one of the highest pops of any clan (due to recruiting anyone who asks...just yesterday I was approached by an Exodus recruiter randomly while mining and asked if I'd be interested in joining, no joke).

I had some fun inside of DIE's city naked and they accused me of teleport hacking. Makes total sense considering they have killed me every time I'm there. They run past me on their mounts and don't even notice me, then they probably think I magically teleport hack behind them when they dismount at their bank. On one occasion I killed someones drake at the bank, and that person and the other 2 around him that I hit with my side swing didn't turn around. I sprinted out, but somehow I "teleported" my way out. 1 person intrudes on their 100% privacy and they freak out throwing around accusations and turning into assholes. I have found a lot of their members to be good guys, but I still have to facepalm at some of them. This is just an example of how good fun can turn into something incredibly dumb when my pathetic excuse for pvp is introduced to them.
