People vs. Purples

Posted by Sarc February 23, 2010

Intellectual thievery? Psssht!  I’m just answering a vital question about today’s MMO scene:  How the Hell did people get to the point of Purple vs. People?
I was listening to the MMO Voices podcast, and they brought up a post from their site which asked the question: When did people stop playing for fun and start [...]

Aion: Right, Wrong, Improved

Posted by Sarc October 10, 2009

I did it.
I put down my fanboy, and stepped into the role of objective critic. I’ve figured out what Aion did right, what it does so very wrong, and where it needs a few tweaks. This list should be a crystal ball since the things that are “wrong” and need to be tweaked will either [...]

The Wild Hunt, the latest WAR live event

Posted by Sarc August 1, 2009

I hop onto the warhammer online homepage to check out the latest announcements and see whats up, and im greeted with The Wild Hunt!! What sounds like a COMPLETELY cool event. Ok, well we’ll see how it pans out, but it has potential. Here’s really the two most important things you can pick up from the page.

2009wildhunt_kurnous_thumb1- There is a new Instanced Dungeon only accessibly in High Elf vs. Dark Elf Pairings. (RvR area)

2- There is at least one AMAZING reward- An item that gives you MOUNT speed for a short duration. Can’t catch that Engi who’s kiting you? What about the Squig Herder who’s always stickin’ up your feet? Well hot DAMN if this isn’t going to own faces in 1v1.

3- IT STARTS TODAY! AUG 31!

War Newbie Guide: RvR

Posted by Sarc July 26, 2009

At this point in the game you’re probably wondering why you would want to control the zone. I mean, with scenarios queue-able from anywhere and quests galore, who has time to jump into the RvR lake?!? Well, first Tier 1 open RvR is very exciting and as you get higher in level you will HUGELY crush lower level opposition since you have more skills at your disposal than they will. It’s Honest to Sigmar fun since if you capture the pairing you receive a big fat chunk of experience and renown!

So here’s the deal, there are 4 battlefield objectives around the zone, pop open the map and look for Flag symbols, they will have a timer next to them which is counting down, we’ll worry about that later. At each of these flags there are NPC guards that you will have to defeat in order to claim the BFO, in Tier 1 they aren’t terribly tough so you can solo or duo the NPCs with smart pulls, dependent on your career of course. Once you take the BFO by right clicking on it after all the guards are dead, you have to maintain control for 3 minutes. Pro Tip: During this time the opposite realm will have been alerted to your activity and will likely be running their tier 1 booties over to your location so if there is any advantageous terrain now is the time to get on, in or behind it. (i.e. Ranged DPS should try to get elevated, MDPS should hide behind a building or a rock so that they can surprise anybody coming in and Support should hide behind something obscure so you can pop in and out of Line of Sight to heal your friends and cast spells on your enemies)
