They are pretty much the best kiting class in the game. Agree on that one. Dot + Endurance + Disease = VERY evil. Combine that with a Healer and ... yeah. ...and you do not have a solo shammie any longer IRC: 09.01.2013(15:16:36) Dotto: we zerg if other realm zerg in rvr,, we never start zerg thats all!

Any solo druid cleric or shaman is a joke at this patch level. That's why you play a minstrel and the other guy I'm not sure but it's certainly not a smite cler / nature druid / cave shaman. Shieldless Wardens / healers / bards also stink. I will not speak for Uthgard 2.0 since it changes RA's, but in Uthgard 1.0 I can say that solo buff classes did just fine. I'm not trolling. Look at the classes I played (10L+ ranger and 8L+ hunter). I played 85% of the time solo. I fought EVERY class MANY times solo. Razor would beat me almost every other fight on his solo spec'd druid versus my hunter. Friars would beat my hunter or ranger many times. Wardens (usually needed everything up) could beat me solo. Ask Nayeh about his days kiting my hunter down on his bard. Runental was a nasty lil guy on his shaman which he normally ran solo on. So please, as Baman said, please tell us who your characters were and how much you actually played solo on Uthgard 1.0. You may very well be right for Uthgard 2.0. I did play with Old RA's on Live, but as we have talked about, Live and Uthgard are 2 different situations. I won't try and speak for what Uthgard 2.0 with Old RA's will be like for solo buff classes, but solo buff classes DID do very well on Uthgard 1.0, if the player behind them had any sort of skills. silenced wrote:Everyone knows you made ALL your RP by killing green enemies in DF, and sometimes killing grey enemies too, just for the funsies. So you are not knowing anything at all about solo-RVR, which, in addition, makes EVERYONE else know MORE than you. Got it? Everyone know's Baman was a gray killing maniac when he was here. I was not the biggest fan of Baman either, however, he did beat me on my ranger in 1 vs 1 fights on several occasions. I beat him a few times, but he beat me in 1 vs 1 fights WAY more than I beat him. So I have to say that he did indeed know a bit about solo gameplay. Yah, he was cheap, but he did play solo and did it well. This is coming from a solo player, which anyone that played during American times at AMG knew I was.

These guys know for sure I never could have possibly left DF... cause they leveled a LOT of bg toons in there.

THEN if you can handle that, you will have to store enough experience agaist all kind of solo classes in order to counter them (=> Ability to learn counter tactics/get advantage of them). For me, the first part was too much boring and the second part doesnt fit very well with my spirit, which is more oriented on the teamplay, especially smallmans where you actually can set up some serious combos/skills with your team mate(s). Baman was (is?!) a bast4rd that was tipically camping DF most of times (except maybe late night?) killing all xpers and magically disappear/logout everytime someone tried to kill him (or Purge+SoS+IP ), which made his deathblows (and rps) very hightly sought by everyone Of course wasn't the only one, but as much as i could hate him for killing me during XP, i got enough satisfaction the times i was able to catch and kill him There was a time when Uthgard 1.0 existed and maaaany toons and arrpees arose... but now:

So true. Like you said, its the patience over a wide scope of issues. I wish I had kept track of the amount of wasted hours spent sitting at AMG/MMG just waiting for somebody, ANYBODY to come out so I had somebody to fight. This was at its worst when I put myself on a 10k RP goal every night. Very well put Caemma.

Or play against a group like that? I have. Absolute devastation. The group that runs up against them can't kill them fast enough because smite clerics have sooooooo many tools at their disposal combined with decent ranged damage with 8 of them dudes doing it!

I might have never killed a level 50 but all those grays and greens were worth an average of 607 rps each! I don't think I killed a single gray that was worth less than 500. Adds up pretty fast. after reading some of these latest posts and learning of your playstyle and what you like to do, its no wonder that you're the most outspoken advocate for having max buff pots and charges on this server, being thrown around like coke at a yacht club party. and then proceeding to want to know what everyone else's toon was......makes total sense now....you should be ashamed

That's why literally EVERYONE had at least one rr11 on uthgard, cause it was that easy! Hopefully they won't make it so easy on uthgard 2. (But in seriousness, the reason I'd like to know if you even played daoc before is because from every statement you've made it seems you have approximately zero experience with the rvr in this game. And if this is the first time you've heard about me, you DEFINITELY never played on Uthgard )
