PvP hotspot of the week

[pomme_verte]

Since it become harder and harder to find good group fight without going in a city, I thought we could create hotspot PvP artificially, since there is no more (there was devil before for example but since devil is no more...).
The world is too big, and don't fit the population anymore, the goal is gather people in different place each week.
There would be no rules, it's just for people to know that if they come to a place, they will find some pvp there.

So, this week, come to Yssam, there is already us (BoS) who are very active on this alliance, Z5/Agenda which will provide a good challenge (if you ambush between Mehatil and C-Bay, you will meet them), JW are quit active too in Apautan, and EOA has an access to there. And Yssam is awesome to PvP.

/Signed, Around some chaos cities would be awesome.

[bobii]

may the biggest zerg win with their surging r90-100's

Well, I think there is still enough ppl on the server to not fight around a specific meetpoint, even if the easiest access to a bank is in the chaos city so ppl will mostly be aroud it anyway.

Yep we as ANG hade awesome days there but i think BoS didn't liked our city raids :( Really great fighting enviroment with all the tree's and stuff....schame all 3 other islands are more or less flat

Not about that dude, but since Krankone made a pact with the devil to make us disappear from the map, we prefer not having you near us, else I always enjoy pvp against most of you.

[ninogan]

Sounds great to me.

[Orolt Lifebring]

You never know when you should stop trolling.
And it's abut Yssam this week, but next week it will be somewhere else...

[bladerunner1]

my original idea like 1 year ago before i left DF (and came back this week), was public nodes. I suppose they ended up implementing something similar which is the sea fortress. You can probably see my original suggestion thread in archive.

The public nodes would be like random cool shit, possibly a mine that has all the different ores in it, and several variations with different things.

The key attribute to public nodes are they dont store a LOT of ore, it just regenerates special ore fast, which means you have to HOLD IT to gain from it.

The good thing about this is it has no towers / fortifications / banks. So its a different style to normal PVP.

I still think this would be cool but then again i havnt played for a long ass time i could be wrong.


**EDIT** In chatting to people I suppose this is kind of like theiryl golems today and other things anyway, so maybe its not needed now. Just an idea.

[Jonah[fataLity]]

I was about to be like I don't even...

Then I saw EU poster an I was like..:rolleyes:

[frizzles]

atleast EU has good ideas jonah....and they use bows o0oo

[ghostinthedark]

you guys should just transfer to US its better pop

[smackyou]

I dont get it, whats with everyone saying its better pvp in NA?? How could you know? Have you been in EU this week and are you exactly updated? I wasn't to NA so i cant rly say much either, but im sure you guys have fun and also have dull moments.

Though i know a lot of ppl that transferred back to EU cause they said its same story there.

Back to OP, i like the idea, if ppl start working together im sure everyone will like it :)

(B d way exploiting the devil isn't a good pvp hotspot, im glad they fixed it.)

[Neilk]

There was no devil exploit it was legit tactics, and it was the best pvp hotspot this game has ever seen but you wouldn't know because lux arcana for never there pvp'ing

[smackyou]

Wasn't lux at the time, after few weeks i joined they fixed it. And lux are located on niff as you may know, so its a bit hard to travel to center dungeon just to raid :P (Before, yes i used to do the mobs in the hard center dungeons as well)

Im not sure how they did it before, but i know it was too easy and too much money :P So i figure that out, an exploit = too easy + lots of cash compared to what others are doing :P

Its more unfair than an exploit true though.

Ofc i know you wont agree because you prob done it as well or what ever is ur resson, but that's what i think anyways.

[Neilk]

No you presume it was easy which it was not because of said pvp hotspot, it's not even in the center dungeon lmao

[KoKane]

Devils needed some attention, but they didnt need to be ruined. It was legit, but it looked sily

[KoKane]

you guys should just transfer to US its better pop

Prefer quality over quantity kthx

you contradict yourself too much... you used to do the mobs in the "hard center dungeons" (there is only 1) then you say "im not sure how they did it before, but i know it was too easy and too much money" so u used to farm them but u dont know how u did? and u also know it was too much money? let me tell u that i doubt u ever farmed in the center dungeon neither what mobs are inside and i also doubt u even know where is the entrance seeing your knowledge... devil kill wasnt an exploit just a use of mount oppness and they ARE NOT in any dungeon...

the last week u called people to yssam so you could enjoy one last wave of pvp before u locked down the island? oh wait... people wont allow that cairn2 happens.

[vrakk]

Not really on-topic but I dont see why people think Devils are ruined. It´s nice profit and skillgains for half a group of people.

Well if you were there for what they used to be, you would see it differently.

[Sonn Fere]

Center dungeon is always a good bet for PvP (at least on NA).

[Maejohl]

Of course we know the central dungeon, its various mob spawns et al. Which clan of any size worth their salt does not? And anyway, why do you care?

Thunder is not the best at expressing himself - and certainly does not speak for Lux Arcana ;)

[bobii]

Everyone knows Lux Arcana is an RP clan that sucks at PvP, sits in Angfrost, and zergs 30v* any raiders.


Also I like how 62 of your members, out of 83, don't have clanbank access. :lmao:

Pleased that you're so interested in us to look at our ranks :)

Lux Arcana is not an RP clan. Nor do we pretend to be the world's best PvPers. We do go out for PvP, we do take our ships to the Sea Towers (when we have some), we are having fun in the game and we will continue to do so.

What we really enjoy though, Bobii, is that every time you come to our city knowing that it's well inhabited you still QQ "zerg" - like it's come as some kind of surprise to you :D

If you attack a city that's well lived in (whether it's Angfrost or anywhere else ingame), what you will never get is shouts of "Errr hellloooo! Do please kindly let us know how many attackers you have and we'll jolly well send out an equal amount of defenders and ask everyone else to log off for the time being, what what."

[Banok]

theres only a few inhabited cities left on the server. and you complaining about them populating a city? what do you want a dead server?

I just wish lux's hq was somewhere more acessible like on mainland. dag was the only active city worth raiding on mainland last time I was actively pvping, and now my clans in EOA so theres nowhere to go :(, s'why I bought a house next to cairn holdings.

[Belteyn]

How can you zerg while living in a city as intended :lmao:

So when 10 attack and 30 are in a city, 20 are supposed to stand down and go and wait in the barracks? Think about it it's not difficult.

[Banok]

its still good for skill gains. I can make more money solo easy, though.

you need about 8 people tbh 6 people to block it in properly and 2 to help damage and fend off infernals.

I miss the old devils though just because blackspot was always pvp hotspot, game feels like it has half the pvp content now.

[Dawkinson]

Artificial pvp? How depressing, sums up the direction Darkfall has been going since release.

The attraction of MMOs that first person shooters don't provide is that the pvp is meaningful. Or at least it is if the game is designed well :(

Depends on the drop on Devil really. I´d say it takes about 20 mins with 5-6 people. And the infernals are a joke, nice drops for the little effort tho.

And yeah, I don´t see why more people do them. Should be a hotspot.

Hello Pomme,

while I do understand your position I do not agree with you. The PvP of Darkfall (not the whole game, just the pvp aspect) is all about taking. Taking loot, taking holdings, taking positions and defending them, fortifing them and of course also loosing them. PvP happens because players, clans and races are enemies of each other, it happens for a cause.

To reduce the cause of pvp to the same that shooters have, to simply "win" is a betrayel to what the game stands for.

Pomme, if you want PvP - go and find yourself an enemy and fight them, as you have done so far and earned quite a reputation for doing so. Keep that spirit up and hang in there until the developers finally get their game into the state they want to have it before they start their first real campaign to advertise it. Then we shall no longer even think about trivializing pvp to what you suggested, then the server shall shake again from the sound of the drums of WAR!
