Independence Day meets Tremors Part4 the GW Brood

[Fate]

Staring all the BGN Guild!

I know I signed off a lot earlier but was awake and wanted to know what would happen. Giant worms and fireworks. Crazy.

Thanks to all for making it really fun for me. Dream, Goddess, Inda, Iona, Tiger, Eld, Asya, X, Yoko, and the rest(Sure I missed a couple). I got around 400+ pictures so I plan to post a few.

I had a really great time. Even did some PvP in the Crag as a Monk and won some. Never got to PvP except with Tiger. But now that the pressure is off maybe we can schedule regular times for GvG, PvP, PvE which is a lot more fun for me now that I know Flare is only 5 energy.

What a great guild!

Oh BTW I had to work Sunday Morning so my 7 year old son wanted to play. He had an almost level 3 warrior in KoA. I forsee having to buy another copy. He was giving me advice afterwards too. "You died becausue you didn't fight and tried to run". He is so smart.

Some things I would like to see in future releases.

1) Private chat windows. If I send you a whisper I want you to see it even if you are a way for 5 minutes. Then if you don't answer me I know why.

2) More than 2 in KoA. I know it is training but hey we have moe than one other friend palying at a time. How about at least 4.

3) Please bring back ctrl+lclick back to call a target. Some of us are mouse dependent.

4) A penalty for people who quit a PvP game after commiting or after dieing once. We won a couple after being comletly wiped the first time. Also after some loser had droped out as awell.

I really didn't try and get into the GvG this time learning all the Monk stuff and hoping we were going to be in the top 5. But I heard we did great anyway. However, truely if you need a Monk or a Warrior or and Ele for a planed Gvg, let me know.

I got the monk thing down now. Stay in the back. Monitor your team mates. Keep them at 100% health.

If you get attacked run to a bad ass NPC to protect you that you can heal.

Also went to the Underworld by accident. 200 gold to go to die at the hands of a level 29 in one blow. So cool!

As you can tell lack of sleep, caffiene, and excitement make me wordy.

Luv ya guys!

p.s. Magis I need a new sig for my new char. I can send you a picture or two. Something like "Healing/Killing, just tell me what you need"

Uh oh, that's not good. The idea is to keep them above 50%, not at 100%. You're going to run out of juice if you keep capping people off so they're at 100% constantly.

Ctrl-space is a lot easier for target calling, if you can manage ctrl-click then I'm sure you can manage to use ctrl-space.

Good point. Unfortunately it seemed if they got down to 50% it did not take much to kill them. Esp if focus fire was on one of them. When everyone was going down then I would concentrate on the lowest one. then the next lowest one.

if you can manage ctrl-click, then I'm sure you can manage to use ctrl-space.

ctrl-click just did not seem to come easy for me. I mean you are usually picking out the the healer in PvE and they are usually not the closest, so hitting the c was out. So I usually click on them. Then I would have to hit the ctrl+space. And for some reason ctrl+space did not seem to always work for me first time.

I tend to use tab to go through the targets at the beginning of a battle, later on I try use the mouse. But a healer shouldn't need to call anyways.

Focus fire will be tough to deal with, but if there are protection monks on the team they could always throw a shield of deflection or at least a guardian to make the job easier for you. If you try to keep that person at 100% you'll only run out of energy more quickly, and the person you're healing or someone else ends up dead.

I understand ctrl-double-click works for calling targets now.

Valid points. I will keep in mind.

What was happening most of the time in the Crag was I was keeping all my guys alive and hen they would figure out I was the monk and start attacking. In which case I learned to run when that happened. If they followed me I ran to hte Ghost Lord nad let him protect me while I healed him. Sometimes that worked.

Dream whre do you get your borders for your Sigs?
