a. Be prepared to help.
b. Have siege.
c. Do as they're told.
d. Either listen to the bg leader or have the good grace to leave the /bg.
e. Function as a unit.
f. (possibly most importantly) Have a guild that's prepared to claim the towers & keep.

Watching the disarray in something as simple as most ml /bg's then is this a likely thing? Your best bet is to hope to tag along on some alliances tower/keep take. Then again how many alliances/guilds are actually pro-iRvR & would like to set it up?

a, b and f is enough if you have enough peeps, sure the other helps, but it's just one keep.

if you move fast it's just zerg, but it's because everything goes to slow we don't make it tbh.

That's where I'd disagree

. I'd say people don't make it cause 90% of the time they don't do what's asked of them & run off & stuff, they spend more time arguing in the /bg than doing anything constructive & because of that they don't function as a unit.

Add tot that that if c, d, & e isn't being done - who on this fair earth would lead that /bg?? Someone with the patience of a saint. Even poor Aran seems to have run out of that (& I can't say I blame him).

I was in a BG recently that broke down after 1 failed attempt at storming a keep. It had been going quite well despite the usual lack of listening to the leader, etc. We could have gone back and mounted a second attack with a good chance of success (more hibs had joined the fight) but for 1 person flaming the BG leader repeatedly. Everyone got so p'ed off about it that the BG just disbanded on the spot. So lack of respect for the leader really does destroy a BG.

Unfortunately the flamers and back-seat-drivers probably don't read this forum, so our words are wasted

It seems as though Hibernia hasn't functioned properly as a realm since cluster. I'm not blaming the Excallies for it, as the flamer mentioned above was a Prydwenite :irked:, but somehow we just don't seem to be able to co-ordinate any more. Pryd/Hib always held it's own because we were better organised than the enemy; it's really sad to see that break down.

& just to prove me wrong tonight we had a well run bg for keep takes. Though they did seem to prove most of my points (or is that just me trying to justify myself??). I think Shadster started it off; so kudos to him & the excal people that took it over when he vanished in a puff of logic.

We functioned well through sheer bloody minded determination that we would not be defeated as the underdog.

Last night was a nice example of the realm out in force, Excallies were graceful and a pleasure to play alongside. The problem once more for that BG was the lack of seige however and they had a few people running around after them. Still they done good.

Yeah was there, dident think the hibs would ever get a keep again =P
But as you say the not haveing RAMS with is bad, still seemed it turned out well, but we had the numbers this time

Still took most of the raid to get a group, must smell or something.....

When I did get a group, thanks Revos, was great fun and yes was a pity about the siege running out at Glenn....

Amazing /stats for me...a ranger with 6000+ hps healed!

Later though, after the raid had broken up, went back to same old hib mentality. Found myself in a tower defending, about 6 or 7 hibs there. Couldnt get a grp, everyone I tried /inv was in a grp...Got hit for six and spent a long time trying to heal myself up....Hibs got killed, tower fell.

Seems rangers arent wanted anymore, at least not this one, not even in a keep or tower take and defence

/sob

Thanks for the raid though, made a big change....

Hi Tas,

aye I saw you in the BG lfg. Sometimes it is easier to do /BG groups and start inviting solo people who are in the area rather than trying to get into an existing group. If I could do it on my Nightshade you can do it on a Ranger.

Anyway it was good fun.
