why is all the action ending up in mid/alb land? ive played daoc for many years and its always been primarily done in emain, for good reasons also. But here its mainly mid ive noticed and i cant figure out why.

At the beginning of the server launch, once some got 50, it seemed that almost all were getting steamrolled by mids in emain. Since then it has seemingly switched to mid because a lot of groups stopped going to emain other than to take keeps and what not. Add in that mids soon started camping DL/DC in solo,small man and 8v8 groups and I think, at least hibs, decided it was better off going to mid to rank up.

Seemingly since then it has since stayed active in mid. Not to mention the amount of folks in mid frontiers xping, offer a bunch of rp's for those willing to run it. While hib land stays rather quiet in frontier camps because of the constant camping and everyone expecting it to be camped since hib land is the most well known rvr area. Most xp groups won't even venture out there even though some of the best camps anywhere are located there.

Some folks have even started to call out hibs as "dodgers" because they dont run emain all the time. In any event, most of the frontiers seem active, just switches a lot but it does seem that mid frontier is the place to be, at least during NA times.

i feel like rvr is more accommodating to mids in midland, the landscape isn't ideal for caster groups, which most hib and alb groups consist of, and its less demoralizing to buff and run out of SF instead of waiting for porters/people miss port ect.

I think albs and hibs should actively try bringing the action back to emain. Mids will camp DL or wherever it is you come out of if they are hungry. You can watch twitch and see during all play times 90% of the rvr is in midland.

We need more people out RvRing in general. Hoping to see pugs & casual zergs going for keeps & stuff soon. Prefer 8v8 myself, but getting old seeing the same few people d1ck flexing on eachother while nobody else goes out to play.

The rvr will only become more active as the server ages. Lots of people xping, rerolling, etc still.

I think action started in odins because of the bog of Cullen lag. and it's just kind of stayed. I've been enjoying it. Mid frontier isn't bad. Fights on the road in Odins and Uppland and Jamtland are fun. I think Uppland is the place to go for smallman action and the 8 man stuff kinda builds off that. Also RvR is so crowded that u end up with both zones populated which imo is better than an emain with messy fights every 10 feet.

50s mainly port to emain, bringing it to mid/alb, gives us a chance to actually get xp'ers, which do give substantial rps... instead of just meeting high RR mids/albs and getting sad.
