these statements that mid is weak in 8v8 is for ppl like you so they realize it
going to rvr zone for a relic defense thats it and then starting to talk about balance in rvr while you obviously lack experience :X

I was talking about large scale RvR, no word on 8v8, espacially not on Uthgard. I played extensively pre-1.65, so I daresay I know the patch level very well and know what my realm, Hibernia, is capable of. On my old live-homeserver we Hibs dominated 8v8 and espacially keep and relic related RvR, coincidentally while being the smallest realm too.
So I am pretty confident the future on Uthgard will be interesting.

P.S. since I like to play the smart way my first two characters are PvE chars, not much point in doing 8v8 with a creep Ani or pet Ench. Next one will be light menta, so stay tuned.

Avalon? Hibs did not...

*psssst* dont tell him that actually mid was most of the time the strongest one on Avalon

While Xian is raging about some small bugs, he is right in that this patch doesn't favor mid even if the bugs were fixed.

I play an alb as well and can admit it. pr and ichor are a joke compared to sos/bof/baod/gp.

I think what people are trying to say Xian is that mid groups are easy to setup. shaman healer healer then 5 whatever.

you can't really do that on alb, at all.

ROFL i can't stop laughing at this comment, weakest at this patch level? Are you kidding me?

the Reason that Hibs are doing better is because alot of mids got tired of NOT finding anyone to kill and rerolled!

Well, if you look only into low RR RVR, then yes, Mid is OP. But as soon as Hib and Alb catches up and get their 'signature' RAs, well, good luck killing anyone.

It's a fact that Midgard is the weakest realm, even with 1.65 patch setting.

But yes, keep laughing.

Uthgard 1.0 had it right... Old RAs are unbalanced... It's nice for the nostalgia but that's about it... Some things were actually changed to balance the game... It would be nice if more focus was placed on that here.

How are amnesia and snares bugged? I haven't noticed anything that would indicate they aren't working properly.


That speed thing definitely sounds like a bug though.

edit: I would also like to go on record stating that both hib and alb are more poweful than mid at this patch level no matter what.

With an effective group setup, skilled players, and good communication:

Alb > Hib > Mid

10 times outta 10.

What, like paladins actually having a range to their endurance chant?

Sure.

For people asking about snares.

I don't have a live account to make a proper clip so you'll have to take this snip from 2006. Halfway through the snare the run speed starts to increase (I conquer him again).

On uth you remain 60% for the entire duration.
