Alesis, just stop talking.

your guild couldnt kill aoflame? wiped at 50%? too bad for you, kick the retards, get better players.

before you say any "motherfucking elitist" and such sort of crap: look where xanadu was over a year ago. we werent even pulling avatars, we couldnt even get a raid for mmis mayong, and look where we are now.

nuff said.

Actually I spent quite some time on Naggy, but the PvP here is a joke, and just doesnt have the balls Im used to coming from DAoC, where skill actually meant you where good at your class, not just able to "wake up first" run and ACT parser and follow a script.

PvP here left me feeling like it was pointless, and badly designed, so in the end, I came back to what the game was designed for, following scripts like reading a novel.

And I wasnt intersted in cockblocking raiders on pulls, whats the point in that? I was arguing for the fact everyone should get a chance to practice the thing, not that I wanted to see those who could have the ability taken away. I dont care if you CAN pull shit and kill it, I was just saying everyone else should be able to practice it as well.

Yeah? Lemme ask you this: Whos the Confirmed of your server? (You may very well have an NPU or something, I dont know). But in the current state of the game, as its designed now, noone will pull an avatar again on Unrest not named Confirmed.

So for real, what top tier guild on your server did you start pulling Avatars out from under bud?

And if you did start pulling them out from another guild, what was the state of the guild when you did it? had they lost players? Where they reforming? Your statement is pretty broad and bold, Id like to hear some more.

And yes 5Rings couldnt kill AofFlame, but thats another story, and another joke, for another day. You prolly have to be from Unrest to get it.

Why don't you look around at the servers that have had changes. There are multiple Avatar pulling and killing guilds on a few different servers. I'm sorry Unrest sucks so completely bad that the other guilds don't even stand a chance.

Defiant dominated a year ago, then stopped pulling, you took over. Gotcha.

Be back in a few hours, I got shit to do.

Ah, how cute. Read what you want to. They showed up, learned mobs, and started killing them first. Why? Because they don't suck like your guild did. They didn't need the other guild to stop showing up.

How many servers never lost a single Avatar in EoF? Maybe half at best? How many servers never lost PHH?

I think it's funny how you call these mobs contested... cos they sure as fuck are NOT contested. Can anyone run up and kill you while you're fighting them? No. Can a mid-teens healer run up and stun/mez/fear half your raid with a single spell? No. Can ANYONE run up and miracle charm your tank then evac? Nope again.

PvE 'contested' mobs aren't contested at all, its just a matter of who gets there first and can kill it. They shouldn't be refered to as contested unless you play on Nagafen. If you don't play there, then they should be refered to as finish lines. Cos the only competition you'll have is the race to see who can get there first.

Also agree with whoever it was talking about guilds transfering to servers who don't have guilds clearing avatars. You don't want competition (if you did, you'd play on Nagafen) you just want the loot and the e-peen waving rights.

Grats you woke up first, want a cookie?

Or, Xanadu took over and Defiant never had a chance to pull because Xanadu took over?

Contesteds aren't contested mobs on Nagafen, they're look at me, I'm a mob sitting here waiting for nobody to ever pull me because that'd be a waste of time.

Newsflash retard, I don't play games to have competition against players 100% of the time, I play them to have competition against developers to see how intelligent they are at designing content. Good thing EQ2 has shitty developers who seemingly get dominated at every turn.
