Remembering Influential Players in your RO Career

[Immune]

This is not a thread about pr0 players, nor is it about popularity. This is meant for you to share the names of people you've met in the game who you'd PERSONALLY just like to reminisce about. It doesn't matter how long they played for or when they quit or if they still play, it doesn't matter your reasoning for mentioning them either. Any server and any realm goes. You can name 1 person or 20, even entire clans. Share stories if you like, or just make a short comment about whoever you list... whatever strikes your fancy. I've never seen a topic like this, so I decided "why not?" (The Hall of Fame seemed sort of similar, but it was too easy to get back into the "best players" mindset.... none of that here please.)

That all said, I'll start.

Ignis Hunter + Rage Hunter: Some of the first english players I met on Ra (we were all n00bs), we founded my/our first clan together (called Ignis Fighters... creative, I know.)

Battle Angel Alita, Boukarou, The Hunter is Here: Difficult for me to mention 1 of them without the others. This was my inner circle before Ra started dying for me. Us 4 would wreak so much havoc together... I still miss these guys.

Hephaestus: I believe he was with us in the group above, but I think he came along later. Anyways, we were always pushing each other once I switched to Alsius, and we were nigh unstoppable when we worked together (before WM anyway...)

Warpath: We were friends, not great ones, but we talked. But ultimately he is the one who got me into the hunter class (inadvertently though it was.)

Lexen: He had another name on Ra, but I forgot what it was; Anyways, we started up on Horus together, and we founded Apocalypse together (I actually suggested the name idea; I left for Alsius soon after though).

Jacque: One of my first friends I met on Alsius/Horus. A lot of people didn't like her, and I understood why, but I always got along with her.

Compost: Fought him plenty on Ra, but never spoke to him until Horus. I was in his clan(s) for awhile, he's a cool guy. He sure knew how to stroke my ego, telling me how my warju was intimidating. (I understand now though that all warjus were intimidating, lol.)

Alsirian Legion (Clan): Simply put, this clan got me through the early parts of Horus. A lot of awesome (and crazy) people here. Klutu, Kyrottimus, Anyriand, Ultimate, Enio, Jippy, etc. etc. Good times.

Aarisewan (or whatever his freaking name is/was): I never told a lot of people, but I gave syrtis a real (though short) run. During my time there I met Aari, who coincidentally found me in the starter zone and welcomed me to TWC. I still only made it to 36 there though, lol.

Tristan + Sinister Evil: Knew them both on Horus (iirc), and just kind of got drawn together when we moved to Raven. Both really good-natured and friendly. We had one of the most "family-esque" clans I've ever been in.

Squi: One of the people who welcomed me when I switched back to Ignis on Raven. He waved to me a lot even when I was still a goat, but I never understood why, haha. I stopped trying to speak french because of him though, because he makes me realize just how little I actually know.

Replica (aka Kate): Seriously, everyone calls her Kate. We met on the forum when she was still a gelf (Sonnet). I made a gelf toon just to say hi to her in game and eventually that just led to me convincing her to leave Syrtis lol. We were bestest friends FOR LYFE, and I taught her (as best I could >.>) to play hunter.

Bois: Rarely if ever spoke to him in game, but he sure knows how to debate on the forum. I used to post in the suggestion section a lot, and I'd always know it must be a good (or at least interesting) idea if Bois posted.

Probably missed a few (if not several) people, but, that's it for now. I kind of wrote a lot, but you don't have to do that if you don't want. Have fun posting

Vernus Pl - Showed me a glitch in PP or PP2 (forgot which) where you could run through a block in the bridge and hide. It's fixed now, but that was pretty memorable. He called it the train to Hogwarts.

Efrendi - I looked up to him in game, and he didn't treat me like a dirt bag even though I was level 29. Introduced me to the concept of trolling gelfs.

Hephaestus - I feel quite safe with him, because he's a pretty capable lock.

[Awrath]

Ah, Aarisewan was also the first person I met in Syrtis and was promptly recruited to TWC. An awesome player and a great guy too, used to take my newbie butt (along with others from TWC) to forts and explain how they worked! I do think my first trip to the war zone was with Aari.

I didn't stay in TWC since they seemed to make a big deal out of multi-realmers joining the clan, and I play for fun and prefer not to take thing so seriously. But, in a way that was good as I ended up in Reclamation, and I had so much fun in that clan! Missing players such as Bamaboi, Arwen, Lussiel Rilme, Haranaka, Aphro, Alty, Wire, Saralanna... the list is endless! Reclamation helped me get more enjoyment out of the game, and I learned a lot more about the game mechanics whilst in this clan.

Kornelius, a Syrtian knight was the first player in Syrtis who gave me some nice epic knight gear. Bamaboi also was with him, and provided me with some nice gear too!

Jakob is a brilliant knight in PvP and I remember him taking me to pp, when I was level 30ish, having PvP matches with goats at pp, shame those don't happen any more!

Mr Egg - taught me to sync dance!

Prettykitty! How could I forget her. Thanks Angel_de_Combate. Prettykitty helped a lot of people out including myself, by handing out free items and expecting nothing in return. I learned this trait from her and even today pretty much everything I gave to people is free of charge (which makes me a bit broke in terms of gold, but not a big deal!).

Pnarpa and Ratpool Pan! Two of the most hilarious people I ever had the pleasure of playing with, both awesome players too!

Scias, Selian, Rathaloz, Detalhez, Meleager, Narzoul, Beeker, Tapantaola, Von, Shadowtale, Vitez, Repoorteht, Pauluzz, Jesus, ieti, Medichick/Xaro, Minamoto, Anpu, Annavilya, Ereinion, maciamd, renger, Nel, Salvia, Wolfhound Strider, Silent Shadow <3, Ricksa Arcus, Eragon Shadeslayer - All people who I had quite literally hours of fun with and would instantly /party when they came online.

The list really is endless! I'm sure I forgot plenty of people, but for the most part, I had a lot of fun with most of Syrtis Horus. I never really got to know most of raven that joined after the merge, as soon after that I got bored of playing in Syrtis and mostly played hunter.

As for players from other realms, I can't really speak about them as I haven't played alongside them. I am playing in Ignis at the moment, but will take some time to get to know them so far been (mostly) a warm welcome. Based on forum presence however I respect the opinions of many! Artec, Immune, Ulti, Kitsune, JainFarstrider, standistortion, Kharb, Shwish. I'm sure I missed some out, but I basically value well thought out comments and people who look at the bigger picture rather than their own individual class, and people who keep their cool and explain their concerns without raging!

Ah, you make me reminisce!

All of the above (and more I am sure) have had some sort of influence in my style of thinking and game play on RO.

Nice thread!
These are some of the people who made an impact on my RO experience; both the social and combat aspects. I'm only mentioning some of the people I met in my first year of RO, or this post will turn into a book.

Twiztid/Sicker (Ra) - Didn't actually meet him in RO, he got me into this game. Gave me heaps of advice about the game and recommended that I be an Alsius hunter in RA. I ignored him and became a Syrtis barbarian in Horus, but I still appreciate his help.

Wood - Friendly Syrtis conjurer who got me into his clan, where I met a lot of nice and helpful players, and he grinded with me all the way to L50. If not for him and the clan, I would've given up.

Serjio/Suok - L35ish Syrtis marks I used to hunt with all the time, as my PC was shit so I couldn't do fort wars. I would have been very bored of RO if not for him. He also moved to Alsius with me (we were both hunters) and was one of the few hunt partners I'd have.

Ice Cube and No To Studies - Two great friends and hunt partners. Playing besides a warju/healer/tank and that suicidal barb was the best fun.

Rios - He's always had the ability to make me amused or extremely annoyed, in all three of the realms, whether it be in the chat tab or in combat. He's a stupid, arrogant, overconfident, annoying troll, and I've never met a player I like more.

Aarisewan/Aasiora - When I met him, he was a friendly, L45ish player who recruited me to The White Company Dragoons. I remember thinking "lol this pt will never reach 50 or be any good". Shows how much I know. He really earned my respect in the time I knew him, and I don't think I ever told him what a good player and good person I thought he was. ...That sounds lame, I hope he doesn't read this.

Some other mentions:

Lumi, Solomon Dean, Vultureman - Thank you for every LOL your words and actions gave me. It made Alsius a truly unique realm. People should strive to be as awesome as you three.

Lil Hathy - Why couldn't you let players grind at Trelleborg beach peacefully? Why did you have to make life so difficult? Why would you go all the way back there after you were killed numerous times? Thanks a fuckload for making the grind from 35-40 longer and harder than 45-50

Yasur - If not for you, I wouldn't have an Ignis character above L10. You were, without a doubt, the coolest noob in Horus.

[Eyfura]

Blusi, Nini and pogranichnik - My first friends in this game. I used to speak very bad english, was always asking pogranichnik "how to say this and that in english" when tried to talk with Blusi or Nini... Pogra was my real life friend but he passed away some time ago. Nini gave me her 50mil gold when she quited RO.

Sheena - When I was very low lvl, still in initiation zone she came and gave me 10k gold and told me to buy mount with it. She also gave me some low lvl equipment. I don't know who she exactly was or does she still play, but I remember this little thing still after years.

Louvina - Alsius warju. She really was always camping in the forest around syrtis gate with her OP zarkit... And most of the times with friends of course. Made grinding as noob very hard.

Terminator - would be so epic to get you back, even for one day

Compost - I was still quite noob and used to play my hunter a lot. Always got pwned by you Sometimes Biwie raged because I played too bad. Good times anyway.

Bamaboy - One of my favorite persons on RO. Hope you come back some day!!

Medichick - I won't forget it how you have helped me.

Orava, Carawen - ...and some other finnish players. Liked to speak my native language with someone in-game. Sadly you all quited :/

Kilero - Old friend, I wish I could see you more on!

Lussiel - You were good conju. Come back!!

Tirsla - goofy goofy goofy goofy goofy goofy goofy goofy goofy goofy. Such epic troll(?), paid like 100euros for warbanners so he could spam syrtis with them. Reported talking alone to NPCs. Had some funny chats with you even though most of people had you on ignore XD

I am not listing active players on this.

RO career...well it is game...so no such thing.

I remember my first clan Terror & Hubris formed by Fonzy and Fiddican and Ina. We was low level grinding till fatigue hits and then we was doing everything on our mind - playing hide & seek in Fisgael, going in war zone at level around 20. This clan got me so good memories. Then it merged to Inquisition and i met new and nice ppl. Sadly i'm the last from T&H which still plays...

Enitharmon, Alvan, Isemon and Arwen. They told me alot then i was still low level conju in WZ. Always supportive and nice even i was squishy and nooby. The awesome leaders of Syrtis...

Zodar, Mele, Tervel, Bulgaro, Umaril and all on my level when we grinded in PB1 g-spot. This place was so awesome with the perfect spawn, Ignis constantly coming there to get a fight. Awesome parties and laughs when someone agroed so many mobs and died with o-shi, o-shi, o-shi...

Tsuku, Nighchill this guys was pr0 really pro. Tsuku get your ass sometimes and see us again please...

Biwie scans... 1a ne....POW zerg strike from the opposite direction....

Then i met Galynn and Jeka old conjus and read some stuff from kim about conjuring. This was people which told me about heal priorities and survival.

Syrtisa, Gandalf, Shroud, Healer and Asdaf. Always fun to play with and against them. I try to look them closely and catch what they use and how they play. I can always learn from them.

Not to mention Enio, Hepha, Donato, raely, smurv. This guys are "annoying" and if i stay alive after their attacks i feel like lol it is so fun.

Ulti and SoL. Sorry to bug you guys i love when you are around. SoL was the worst grinder ever landed in Syrtis. It was really sad then you went to alsius. Always funny with you around.

Tyr's Zorn. They was the glory of the goats. Feared and proud. I still hope their spirit to return again in goats and you PWN everyone and everywhere once again. They pwned us even we outnumbered them alot. Real war machine. I can not remember the nick of a tyr huntress which organized the awesome inter-realm WZ bosskills.

Hmm prettykitty was the nicest and caring person ever. Giving items helping grinders and always happy to talk. I loved to talk with her when i was not in a mood to war.

Hmm can not remember all. Alot people came and go. Everyone was unique and gave something of his own. Even Tirsla. I love Syrtis not for the zergs meaning the mass of people, but for the anarchy, for the gelfnes and goofiness in everyone.

A bit of nostalgia for the old days and a bit of hope for better in the new ones.

Best video from Scias.

It hurts to see this again, game was much funnier, with old forts, and so many people i see in this video left, what a pity.

Nowadays there are no such fights

And yes videos from Scias were always great.
