Nicely done, I see some impressive teamwork.. The only thing that's kind off a downer are the constant HotW. Still for the rest keep up the good work!

For me the same. HotW (or Beacons) imbalances kinda ruin such fights for me as you can kite any number of slow enemies with constant speed advantage, as seen in so many videos on utube already, 3 archers vs 10ish higherlvls etc..

To be honest, as I've already told jesus multiple times when we argue about this, I do not find long and boring kiting impressive. I'm the type of person who has fun when I die in an exciting short neck-to-neck fight, against the odds, and it reflects in my playstyle.

However, I will not undermine what I saw. Disregarding the presence of HotW, that was an impressive display of lock skills in terms of awareness of the surroundings, reaction times, and simple combo spell flow by both you and pti, and it served once again to remind me that you guys are at least one notch above most other Syrtis locks - something that I already knew from my arena fights with pti ofc. In multiple occasions I was sure that you would die within 5 seconds, and yet you always turned it around and surprised me.

So hats off to you, but jesus is still a little hit-and-run bitch <3

Edit: I forgot to mention that your taste in music is way way way better than most people who make RO vids, especially since you chose music that is both FREE and GREAT.

Well, that's true and not true.

Beacons and hotw can clearly create imbalance, i always said it.
BUT in this video, almost all groups have warmasters, beacons and hotw (this isn't a bunch of wm ganking low level grinders).

Yes, it is somehow kiting, and you know what it means (), but in an RvR fashion, it can fail very badly, and sometimes work very well, this video is showing when it works, not when it fails.

Hotw isn't enough, Dispell are needed too (much more than beacons).

+1000 to this. This was the most impressive part of the teamwork, and not the hotw spam.

Depends much what you face. Dispells come in handy, sure. But they dont allow you to stay on range of the melee/cc and/or separate slower&faster classes that easily. Horn vs no Horn just allows you to stay untouchable until you have a good constellation. or in case of range only, or even archers only allows to snipe down or weaken from secure range until closing in is secure.

Just noting, oldschool smallscale fights i find way more entertaining.

So if you see a good opportunity to get one while frapsing and you know your opponents wont use/cant use em either you could consider to pass on them.

very brave, beacons...
and kiting? why not just have a proper fight without running away?
