Hello all.
I know Im not important or well known in the community, and chances are that hardly anyone reading this will have heard of me as such, or met me in game - But thats not the point. The point is that I feel I need to apologise.
Over the last week or two Ive noticed Ive been swearing alot more, and probably been quite offensive in game. This really isnt me, and I really wish to apologise to anyone that might have been offended by anything Ive said.
As to why this is Im not sure. Regnum seems to have been frustrating me lately, for many reasons; mostly players and their "tactics." Its sooo tempting to name names, but Ill resist - that wont do any good for anyone. The second reason I guess is personal stuff, this years been bloody hard for me. Its cliched I know, but I dont care, its the truth.
So thats all really, I really am sorry if Ive offended you, or anyone you know.
Thanks all,
Matt :)

You know, you don't have to apologize, or in better words it's very kind of you... many players acted your way and i can understand what you're feeling about our poor tactics (let's say things like they are !).
I've fought on your side with you many times near meni save, sometimes we really suck because we're 20 and no team work... but if you say some critics about people then you get yourself molested... despite the fact that's right.
With experience you know it's good to listen to these critics... without Elrik's ones i would be even noober than i am currently :p Some haven't listened... and don't play anymore because they're just bored to be cycle killed ;)
Some others have understood that critics were really constructive and are now very good.
And unfortunatly our time zone is not that good for nice fort wars, who stands at the morning for us ;)

you shouldnt be apoligizing about the tactics those ppl need more slaps in the face about this, i think all us smart ppl should get together more often and plan real tacics. if you tryed to mention my name as a crazy conju using a zarkit go ahead slap me i deserve it :nunchaku: ... ouch :mf_hide: . you have nothing to apoligize if you have a reason the only swearing that is unacepted has no reason.
no regards.

It's good that you came out and explained yourself to those people whom you might have offended. I'm glad to see some people in this world are nice enough to swallow their pride and apologize.:smile:
I'm sure that whoever it was you may have offended will forgive you. We all have those times when life gets hard and I think everybody can understand that.
As for the tactics:
Don't follow your realm mates' examples if you don't like their tactics. If you show a good example yourself, hopefully people will eventually see that you are the one powning better than they are and having more fun and adopt those techniques themselves.

Yeah, I have to restrain myself not to go berserk, whatever the realm I play in. At least in Alsius there are very few Conjus so I learned not to expect anything. Sometimes I take the Conju to show how it's supposed to be done: ie:
DO NOT RELY ON AURAS. GIVE MANA AS MUCH AS LIFE. ALWAYS LOOK AT YOUR ALLIES LIFE BEFORE ENEMY LIFE. KNOW WHO IS TARGETED. CAST DI AT FIRST SIGN OF WARLOCK, ARCHER OR CONJ TO 1) CONJUS 2) WARLOCKS=KNIGHTS. GIVE MANA AGAIN, YES THAT MEANS SYNERGY BOND. NO, NOT ALWAYS TO THE SAME GUY, BALANCE MANA. NO NOT ONLY YOUR FRIEND JACKASS, PEOPLE WHO ARE FIGHTING. CAST AREAS WHEN HEAL ALLY IS ON COOLDOWN. LOOK AT YOUR *OWN* HEALTH STUPID, YOU'RE GETTING KILLED. DO NOT WASTE SANCT BECAUSE THE VISUAL IS FUNNY. DO NOT WASTE STEEL SKIN. DO NOT WASTE AURAS WITH SANCT FOR NOTHING. TREMOR HELPS WHEN YOUR HEAL ALLY IS ON COOLDOWN. GIVE MANA. PRESS V. WHAT'S SO FUCKING HARD, DROP THE ZARKIT. REZ PEOPLE WHO DIE WHEN THEY DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!! BUT WHEN HEAL ALLY IS ON COOLDOWN............ HEAL WARRIORS, THEY NEED IT TOO !!!! IF SOMEONE IS RESTING, HE NEEDS MANA OR LIFE (yeah I'm yelling)
/me shoots himself
As you see, in Ignis, I get really mad at all those noobs but I take revenge when I go to menirah and kill them all over and over :beerchug: and they come back for more :fingers: :fingers:
PS: Bad players are over all classes, not only Conjurer. It just so happens playing bad offensive classes has less impact on teamplay, because even if they choose the bad target they still try to kill, do some damage, and are good canon fodder.

No worries Matt, When things get you stressed you just need to back off and relax. Find some music to listen to or watch a movie. I've been pretty busy lately with the new clan and all and I've been playing pretty much nonstop. I had to lay off a bit or I was gonna strangle someone.

You need no tips, you had the gift of Healing, shall your Conju and Barb return to Alsius. I never played much with your Hunter (except in February some hunts at pb with la fragua) so I don't miss him much but your Conju was good and I enjoyed killing with your Barb :p

Thanks for all the kind words guys :)
About the tactics i was talking about; its not necessarily always my realms "tactics." Yes I know in Ignis we are becoming slightly more disorganised etc. But its also how cowardly players can be. Id much run in head 1st into the enemy, take down 1 or 2 people and die a horrific death, then just stant back and watch. This happened (quite literally) four times at meni vs. Alsius a few days ago. Whenever I would run in to use my area, or just basically just start fighting, I would find myself out numbered 3 to 1, look around and "Oh suprise suprise Im alone, oh hi realm mates 50m away!"
About the enemy tactics. Hunters have alot to do with this. I hate what they've become. Obviously its not all hunters, but its a good 90% of all hunters have turned into hit and run cowards. Here an example; I was chasing a well known hunter, who has just made the top spot on the rp rankings for his realm, on my own, from PB - Herb. He continued to run away from someone several lvls lower than himself to Herb - which was packed full of Syrtis. I knew I would died pretty instantly, but I didnt care; I just wanted 1 hit on this guy to let him knoew I wasnt a coward and that I meant business. But what does he do as soon as he reaches the group of syrtis and turns around to shoot at me?
HE USES SON OF THE WIND. IN A 20 + VS. 1 FIGHT, HE SERIOUSLY USED SON OF THE WIND, AT FULL HEALTH.

Ask him for a PvP then. It's just like Saguenay, they're good at running and they do it a bit too much to play with their opponents but they'll be good in PvP too.

I was at that fight...
You will die an horrific death without killing anyone if you don't catch a couple of things first:
1st. Check who's there, names and clans, classes and most important: the warlocks! Get used to understand how the others play, some clans are over TS and only one of them will talk. Prepare yourself to die if you play solo... often. Check also the opposite names and clans, their lvl and where are each class positioned. You'll notice that in Alsius, unlike Syrtis, the archers are not the front line *unless* they have bigger numbers OR the clan isn't a "groso" one.
NOTE: In that particular battle it was a "groso" clan... actually it was "The worst clan in Regnum" :superpusso: . They rarely go much farther then the front door (unless they can pawn us up to the limit), their archers are inside and you never see a conjurer out of the fort unless to revive or do some nasty conju things, they have a knight and a barb who play as one, a true midget "knarb", and it's difficult to decide which one is more hard to kill!
2rd. Know how they play, what they do, check the general constantly and remember that in Ignis they only rush after a terror... unless stated otherwise. If someone rushes against Alsius they'll most probably receive us with control spells being MoD and Dome the most efficient. If they have bigger numbers they'll try to pawn us with warriors rushes, if not they'll use more refined tactics... being the "knight bate" my favorite. They are the best realm on defending forts, but they have "goat" imagination! (I wished! :mf_hide: )
2nd. Let others be a target (knights and archers), I know you are a barb and have a lot of cool stuff but if you are prime target, and you will be a prime target, you'll die before killing anyone.
3rd. If you remember how the fight ended, there is a timing for rushes!
4th. Last but not least... don't play hero, you'll only get a "pt" death... leave it to Red Star. :fingers:

Actually that was the tactic!!
I didnt what to kill you on the sorrundings of the PB, I whant you and others making chase me. So you spread out and so also the syrtis from the fort go ahead. If not ignis people stays on bridge for ever.And yes low level barbarians can kill me easy if im short of mana or you are 2 or 3.
PB:yes so much time on ignis is converting me to a ignis.Isnt that way the game history anyways?

Thats all well and good, except that there was no one else chasing you except me ¬_¬
I still dont understand why you used SOTW in a 20 vs 1 fight...

Sometimes I take it for reaching barbs running.Not for the evasive.
why is his name in red in his sig :D?
Because he likes the colour red and his clan name is green.
That is so lame.
Well, you wanted to land a hit on him, so he prevented you from doing so ;)
Or maybe his armour needed repairing and he didn't want the repair costs so high :p
