Yes yes, give me more of groups with those casters you're talking about!

Me and my no skill Melee Tank Runemaster. What was I thinking playing this no skill easy class! All I do is stick and hit one button on people!

BTW. If groups would stop hiding in the mountains of mid frontier looking for XPers and farming SH raids, you'd probably get "swooped" a whole lot less.

I dunno, after everything hib has dealt with and continues to deal with in terms of groups camping DL/DC and killing our xper's, surprised you guys have such a problem with ppl in mid. Just getting your just desserts.

I couldn't care less with people ganking in mid. I just hate running around in the bright white snow and trees of midgard frontier because it's the only place to find 8v8. There a reason why everyone went to emain for so long.

I'm kinda enjoying the change myself. Switching between all 3 realms and still finding fights at times is fun. Hate staying in the same place all the time. Although during my time, not much going on rvr wise but still seem to figure out a way to enjoy ourselves.

Yes because a RM who has 1 job in a mid tanker to purge NS and re-NS is really hard to play... And if you don't have purge up you just stick a bard and staff - Really well executed strategy and gameplay...

We get respected by majority of groups both mid and alb - No real issues - Idiots on this server think that a "clean 8v8" means swooping off a hill because you're in a tanker and you need the advantage. There is nothing clean or fun or fair about dieing in 15 seconds because we got blanket ichored by a group hiding in the hills and then swooping down from out of LOS - People who 8v8 say they want clean fun compeititve 8v8's, but then do that, which is the complete opposite of clean and fun. If you just want RPS, then no biggie, but if you try to be a solid 8man who has regular and reoccuring fights then you shouldn't do it. Its a lame tatic employed by those who are not confident they will win.

It's the same thing as if we always fought at Crim and always pulled back to the keep (were a caster group were just extendeding not our fault the keeps there), but in reality, if we did that its because its intentional (at least if it becomes a habbit).

Im sure the random mids will stop swooping when hib caster nerds stop pre kiting to magmell /s

Lol. So all tanks and casters that mid plays are easy no skill classes. So I guess you are a terrible and horrible player unless you play...a healer? I guess its time for everyone to reroll healer to prove our skills! rofl

I love these crazy excuses from hibs. Group didn't announce they were about to attack us and give us ample time to prepare ourselves before the fight therefor they are no skill losers who don't want a fair fight!

In this patch level the amount of skill needed on majority of mid classes is little to none, in the setups most mid groups run - its by far the most overpopulated and easiest realm to play at this patch level, hence why the game was significantly rebalanced in the coming years.

Its easy because its so strong - Any idiot can play a mid tanker at this patch level.

Theres no excuses - were the highest rank hib group on the server and with our A lineup can beat anyone - The only group we havent beat is Raifs alb group because we've fought a total of like 3 times due to our timezone differences and the fact that we like emain and they usually go odin's to kill all the dodging groups. (no biggie, plenty of action, we get it). Some days we don't lose, others we have a tough time, which is kinda the nature of a caster group - if one person doesn't do his job, the group flops, unlike a mid tanker where your 3rd tank or healer can kinda just do whatever and be carried by timer dumping and instas.

If you think mid isn't extremely strong at this patch level against hibs you're an idiot like I said - Sure sos sucks, but we also deal with it - theres a reason hib classes recieved so much love shortly after 1.65.

This is getting ridiculous, you guys are adding more and more things to the definition of "clean 8v8" which are really getting laughable

Of course the melee group (whether it's mid or not) will try to get a good inc inc some hills or any advantageous terrain... and of course casters are going to try to find a plain field to fight against them... why wouldn't they ?
There is nothing dirty about it, it's a strategy, it would be stupid for a melee group to force inc in a plain field against a caster comp, and it would be stupid for the caster comp to traval in hills and terrain filled with los issue...

Nothing wrong about that

How dare you question the mighty Booted guild. If hibs don't have every possible advantage then it is simple not fair due to the extreme overpowered nature of Midgard! Everyone knows this and if you deny it you are delusional!

If you want clean 8v8 you don't swoop hills - maybe in 2003 when most of you played, that was your definition, but in 2k17 if you want competitive fights you don't hide in the trees/hills and then inc someone - That doesn't mean you should fly in open field either - tank groups have the option to pull till a lip or something similar, but that is different then flying down a hill and insta inchoring someone as you hide.

In 2k17 - most quality groups are looking for quality, fun, and competitive fights - That includes wins and losses and isn't about RP gain. If you swoop off hills and rely on instas as your strategy you're a trash can, end of story.

If you're a roaming "region pug" thats just looking to hit everything and anything, then do what you want, theres no harm in and it and I understand that at times its a lot of friggen fun, but these psuedo 8man's who keep spamming us asking if were out, employ trashcan "strategies" that if they ran anything other then a mongloid tanker, they wouldn't do.

End of the day, if you're looking for "8v8" you don't swoop hills, vulture, hit groups while medding, add, jam, etc. particulalrly when theres only one hib group who consitently comes out to fight and dodges dodge.

If you want RPS and are more concerned about realm pride then have at it (not saying you should or shouldn't), simply calling out pseudo 8mans who think they are good.

It's funny how people talk so much trash, yet, were the only hib group out, and theres what, 10 mid groups and 6 alb groups? Hrmm, wonder why that is.

Hib grp LFF open field .. O wait thats our advantage, somehow... Mids! Flee to the hills!
