Ok so it starts out with my newly lvled 29 hunter. I decided it was time to check out the wz so I entered and chilled for awhile at central hoping someone english speaking would come by and be interested in doing some hunts or something. No such luck. After awhile I got bored so I went out solo. I tracked two warriors southwest of my position and decided to close in to get a better look. Purples, damn. I noticed they were trying to flank central from the southeast so I decided to follow them and see where they ended up, they turned to the right just before getting into visual of save. I decided to make my move and attacked. It drew their attention and I led them back to save declaring "Hey guys! I brought food". One warrior took notice and gave chase along with myself. He got killed twice before we were eventually able to defeat one of them. while the other tucked tail and ran when reinforcements arrived.

So there I was solo again. I decided to check out the scenery, I went up near stone and debated for awhile whether to cross the bridge into red lands and try to find some easy lvler to pick on, but decided against that idea..yes too risky. So I made a clockwise move around our borders checking things out, nada. I made the mistake of thinking that the beach was a popular lvling and hunting place, So I went there. Right on cue I tracked an archer to the northeast. I move to high ground to see if I could spot him, since I don't have range data on my track skills yet. I track again and find he moved to the northwest. I shortly after made visual contact. To my dread it was a high lvl hunter. Damnit I thought, I'm toast.

He immediately spotted me and gave chase, I turned tail and cranked up the mobility. I was slowly losing ground due to his faster passive and mobility. At one point he casted another speed spell and started gaining ground at amazing speed. He got off a ensnaring and that's when I knew I was doomed. He was gaining even faster now. I noticed a large formation of rocks and I thought if only I could get to cover I might have a chance to hide.

I quickly made a sharp turn into the rocks and started casting camo, Time seemed to slow to a crawl as I watched the blue bar creep across my screen. Any moment my adversary will turn that corner. Hurry up and cast! My worse fear was realized when I saw him round the corner, as I vanish into air not a second later.

Just my luck, inbetween the rocks is choke full of aggros, and I'm wading right through the middle of them as my pursuer watches closely to see where these infernal rock golems lead him. Right to me that's where. I can see him behind his monitor laughing. Silly n00b. Ah but they finally cease chase, I'm free. Now just to shake my attacker. We'll you'd be surprised at how much -25% speed really is, when your trying to run out of visual range of someone.

I knew I'd never make it out of visual so I must try to fool him somehow to gain a lead. I start running back where we came, through the rocks I thought and out the other end. He'd follow where the golem last was and I'd be heading in the opposite direction. Perfect. I wasn't more than 5 body lengths behind him before I see the unmistakable casting of "track realm enemy". Alright buddy, time for a rope a dope. As soon as the animation came to an end I did a full 180 and started running straight for him. At first he didn't flinch and I started to doubt my tactic. Then suddenly he started running. Right for me. This is my chance.

He did just as I wanted, He booked it in the original direction I was headed. Right through the middle of the rock formations and out the other end. As soon as He was out of visual, I casted mobility, canceling camo and ran like hell. Back to the safety of the inner realm.

The End.

You are a true trickster!!! I loved the story, reminds me my first experiences in WZ, I was around 30 and teamed up with a warlock friend of mine... on that day I understood that although a hunter has all the job warlocks get all the RP!

My first time, i went of of the ignis gate, feeling so powerful and proud...i saw some green person (i now know their syrtis), i clicked on them, and talked in general (real stupid)...till i saw a red circle next 2 their name, they waved, i challanged them (feeling powerful)...a lasted a little while for my first go (GOD BLESS NECROMACY!) and i died after a punch 2 the face, then rep shot....i felt so bad i didnt go into WZ till the next day

I love going to the WZ at level 30. Just having some fun, leveling close to a fort that's been taken by Syrtis. ^^
Attacking the guards and then running like hell...
Good times, good times...

I remember going to the wz on my alsius knight.

Went to fort samal with another lvl 43 knight and a similar lvled hunter to me back when I was really low lvl(around 18). Then the guards and an Ignis hunter came and killed us.

After that I went to syrtis territory and got killed by a marksman and conju.

Then...I decided to head back
