there is less and less albs online and nobody in rvr.

you often see 2 fg hib vs 2 fg mid and 2 or 3 stealthers alb

no other way to kill somebody if you are alone and not a stealther, i agree, i do the same thing.

but when other people log, maybe would it be better to do a nice rvr group.

i often hear "albion sucks, i'll join an other realm i think"
lot of people did it already (even some guild mates) i already went back to hib too.

but please if everybody do that, it ll be mid vs hib and some guys begining on alb that will stop the game very quickly.

sure there is lot of problems on alb, sure it's the usual realm for beginners, but maybe could old (goods) players stay or join alb...

if GMs could help for that...

if not i could help hibs or mids that would help for more fair play and join us

the problem for high lvls in alb is:

To do RVR is impossible atm, they dont have a cleric --> loose in rvr
and no one like it to lose only in rvr .( so they say alb sux ...

that`s what i gues ...

Being successful in rvr needs supporters. As Massa already mentioned Albion
lacks those supporters atm. The major problem about support classes is that
you can't farm items/gold and are heavily dependend on good working lvl-groups,
due to a missing ability to exp solo.

The easiest way is to support your supporters. If your supps are happy, they
stick to their char. If they mention that they stagnate in leveling/getting what
they want they begin to play alternative chars.

Just take a look if there are any clerics at lvl35/40+ and check out if they are
played continuous...maybe you find a mainchar cleric. Support that guy and
help him. Usually players starting up with a supp will stick to their char, because
they once made the decision to play a "helping hand".

Next problem is that getting RPs if u are dead doesnt work correctly i think.
If enemy know what to do, then the supps are first ones who are dead and they are really frustrated that they havent the chance for higher RR and new abilitys. So they log out after one or two battles even if the battle is won.
yes I know that the supps need protect from deff-classes, but often it really difficould to do that. In my Opinion its not very easy to to a sucessful group-setup in alb, u need more different classes , but thats one of the reason i love playing alb, 1 shamie, 3 healers 4 tanks and rulethem all doesnt works here:D

bad english, i know, hope the not-germans can understand it

Might have to do with the famous nice tone in Albion as well?
Or is that just an urban legend?

Oh what a useful comment...

Thx - next one plz...


But, as panachier says, the problem is at hands. Albion most of the time had no keep boni for almost two weeks (and more) now. That speaks for itself.

I agree with Gaius, there is a problem with rp. Don't know excactly, but as supporter you hardly get some rp. As mezzer or healer you are public enemy No.1, often killed in some seconds (even WITH a defensive guard) and after that...it's like gamble if you get some rp's.

But that's nothing new, so the problems in albion are to be searched somewhere else. Every guild has to take a good look at itself. As for my part, the Army is growing but not able to take and HOLD the keeps against full mid and hib grps with high RR.

Yap, Massa is right, if we look in albion we have 3 active lvl 50 cleris in alb , and we are often without any ....
Leaving realm is not solution ppl must find way to solve problem otherwise realm will be completly dead in future

And those suprters must answer question : do you fight for your realm or for RP's only? I am caster, i usualy die in begining and often i dont get any rp's but i dont care i fight for my realm !!!!

PS: i often say alb sucks and i am gonna change realm etc , but those are empty words spoken in frustration that is so bad. I will not leave my realm

@Elwin

You are right, you fight for your realm. But honestly, it is a game, and a game should be fun for everyone. Being a supporter often gives you a very short lifespan ^^ and - as many of us said - sometimes (often) no rp.

Always dying and not getting much out of it is frustrating. And - as i said before - it is a game, and when a game is nothing but frustrating, you try to change the game or the way it goes... Or you leave...

So, the "fight for your realm" is a honorable idea, but after all (i repeat myself ) it's a game, not the real life or so...

Nobody likes loosing and getting nothing at all.

At the moment there are a lot of high level Hibs and Mids in Emain - some are even from Albion and have switched sides. Chances for a non "8 times lvl50" grp are not the best at the moment in alb...and so dying...no rp...no fun..you get my point.

So, it's no whining from my side, it is just telling facts. If you want albion back in strenght, pull your guilds back together. Get the players back from mid and hib country!
Ally and fight. Or level up some support classes - and if you do not want to do so - support the supporter with tanks or other classes. Every cleric or sorc needs tanks to level up.

Just my two cents...

Greetz,
Kronos

I got your point and i say this not as a tank, but as a caster who die first in fight even faster than supporters ...
I would like to make suport class too , but without keeps it will take ages
And my guildies stay in alb

The problem was recognized, I think. There are quite many support classes "growing". In Wilton there often were 2 or even 3 Clerics.

The fact is that on Albion if you want to build an optimized group for RvR, you need much more classes than on the other realms... Finding those guys is not always easy.

Most of the time, we're without cleric, our most important class ! Damage dealers like mercenaries are inexistant on our server, theurgist have been built only to farm (kill Dragon, kill Legion, and for afk leveling), only 3 sorcerers level 50 (our main mezzers)... but infiltrators are very popular on albion. They're everywhere...

We should try to give us some schedulded hours to play with a nice and well built group.

First thing too, Albion must be more organized, more friendly, there're lots of problem on Albion right now. People are not that friendly as on Midgard for example.

There're lots of things that have to be changed.

well i wouldn't say inexistant but yes, we lack some classes from so-called perfect group, sorcs, cleris, mercs...

There're only two guys level 50 playing their mercenaries. That's what I call inexistant.

oki i ll be cleric and mercenary... pfff what would be albion without me???

somebody would say a paradise

teh other problem is that clerics dont get grps in albion....

i know 4 clerics dont lvl cuz they cant get on without grp, i couldnt belive but its true


and the problem is not only to get clerics, but to get a whole grp for rvr. in albion most rvrgrps get 2-3 stealther, we didnt even got sorcerer, the basic albish grpchar (lvl44 mindmezz, demezz, root, interrupt (amnesia), interrupt (pet) ). its a total difference in mid or hib, there are more chars healin than tankin sometimes...
