Competition!

 

I'll chuck 40m of my hard earned GP to the quickest returners (24m for winner, 10m for 2nd and a bond for 3rd), using the same route I did in my return example below. Reply to the topic with a link to an unlisted YouTube/streamable vid for proof to be entered. Don't flail, be the best and show the fuck up with your returns next event. I'll check the winner by next Friday (26th) Feb. 

 

(You can enter multiple times to produce the best time in the category. No pre pots or staff spec required, just straight gear up from edge spawn and sprint with full tank mage back to pond). 

 

To further incentivise TRIALS, I will also be giving out a fastest TRIAL gift. Get practicing lads!

So we just smoked Res in a real strong even opt performance. Even though we were giving them a dick slapping we could have performed better and there are subtle basics that we seem to forget when we're ahead or just get lackadaisical about, that i've noticed not only tonight but in previous matched events that we've had. There could be many reasons though I think the main one is we are getting super complacent. We have been performing well at almost all events and we can't get lazy with the core requirements to win a fight. A few i've witnessed below, not calling anyone out in particular but simply a criticism and area to recognise and improve on.

 

East/West & North/South Melee

We honestly have some wicked nig rangers who pull melee often and maul, spear, bgs, whatever. We have some super good synergy some days then some real horse shit synergy others, often when we are ahead. Let's not forget, as soon as someone ignores the East/West and then goes on either a North or South tile we then connect a 3 man and that's enough to tilt the momentum in the other direction. Respect the East/West at all times, though if not possible due to being blocked by terrain, use your smooth brain and hit a North/South instead.

(And many other examples)

 

Clumping Near Pile - Either Looting Food or Ranging/Maging Too Close

As someone who melees often this is hands down one of my biggest pet peeves. We have been a lil lacklustre in giving melee opts room to manouvre in and out the pile and in turn connecting clumps that are completely avoidable.

There are so many free squares around this pile that there's absolutely no reason for any circumstances for any of the nig rangers to be so close. We already have 2 on the pile though a 5 man can be connected with 1 strong barrage in this instance. Get the fuck away from the pile if you have no intention of spearing or going in for melee.

 

Slow Ass Returns

The last few trips we have been on it's felt like we absolutely suck cheeks at returning. Not even just returning, but massing before we hit something where we meet at pond before running to spider or whatever. I don't know whether ppl are getting caught up in the bank doing nonsence stuff or just blindly looking for their gear cos their tab is disorganised, whatever the excuse is - we can improve. Try practice this outside a pressure setting, learn to be quick at pulling your gear out your bank and last but not least, configure your inventory while actually running back to the fight! No more bank booth stallers please. See vid below for my example.

Vid of the return was very helpful, definitely going to change how I gear up, was doing it slightly diffrent before but this should help speed me up

Absolutely agree. We boss everything just get a bit caught out with the simpler stuff from time to time

Good topic, might be worth mentioning staff spec in house and pre pots.

Good write up. Some things are just assumed people already know day one, but that’s not always true for the new guys!
