a huge thank you to all the resistance leaders of red99

[lite]

Thank you for coming together to make the bigggest fight in red99 History possible.

I had a hell of a time, and it was super uplifting to see that we can work together.
That makes me super optimistic for Velious.

I hope to be able to work with you more often so we can grow stronger together.

This was a huge uphill battle, with different teamspeaks and trying to put this together with such limited time and opportunity for preparation.

Regardless, we did great with very limited communication. Round one was a huge success where we demolished our enemy and pushed them out. Unfortunately with separate teamspeaks we weren't able to properly synchronize a push outword which would have secured our victory. This kind of thing can be easily resolved.



Azrael is super excited to continue to participate in this kind of event, and we are already discussing ways to have even better results.

[Luniz]

Looking forward to entire server vs empire.

[snufzaimoverlord]

We all gotta donate so the zones can handle these big battles, that should have been way better.

[krazyGlue]

^^ voted. No

[Voland]

Sounds like it was cool, can someone post more info on what happened? Maybe a video?

[Colgate]

you had 130 vs our 85

in what bizzarro universe is that an uphill battle for you?

we lost 40 people to desynch at the start

the real fight that happened was 40v110 and you somehow lost

better luck next time

Wait, you claim you had 40, yet one of your dudes was bragging about having to upgrade your teamspeak to 175 players.

40 people alive against 110 alive

srs or dumb?

Racist piece of shit.

[Omnifiend]

Serious..wish I had the screenshot. Some dude with Empire tag said just had to upgrade TS to 175 players...are we sick or what? He might have been joking, of course.

Everyone got disc'ed

I had to relog after ever spell, half of the raid was LD and died to trains. Euro players and anyone on the west coast couldnt even log in.



I'll admit I did have high hopes for this encounter, but when I saw 70% of the people participating going LD on both sides. I knew it was just going to be LD people dieing to trains.

Which it was.


I had fun playing the villain here for a few weeks. You guys need to seriously consider 30 man guild caps to make the server fun tho. Good luck with the box.

[lite]

aye, really hope the server can handle these massive fights!

[TacoSmasher]

30 man guild caps. Velious in a month. lel

why is no one talking about the constant training doe? Is that allowed now?

Trains + Desyncs the clear winners here

[syzygyst]

it's an ongoing joke :P

You mean Eddard farming YT from noobs in Unrest to get his KD ratio up?

[ElemtalRZ]

Would really like to see some GM intervention during battles like this. Its not pvp when people zone in with the sole purpose of training mobs and zoning out. I understand it is KC but common really watching mobs that are deep inside Venril sathir lair get trained over and over again was pretty tiring. Watched Yibz train mobs all the way from the hand room to the zone in, watched Miranda heal a empire training the whole zone up from the super block, then da, and die killing our rezers. All I can say is this. When we were loosing we didn't even the battle by training. Pras the Staff for their hard work and dedication to this box and making it as classic as possible. Would love to have 1 or 2 Game Masters present for the next battle to ensure when people run out to train that they receive the proper punishment for their actions.

[Osyruz]

[Masq]

Yibz had a couple nice trains going.
I know all that PvP that happens in hands/bodyguards rooms, such a shame it ends up training all the LD players at the zone in.

[Pseudechis]

Bit of a anticlimax but still fun!

[Fael]

Was there an advantage to already being in the zone... When it came to Desync.

It may be anecdotal, but it definitely seemed like we had a lot more Desynced on the initial zone in.

[SamwiseRed]

jesus that is one big ass battle for everquest lol

[Rushmore]

jesus that is one big ass battle for everquest lol

biggest PVP battle ever maybe....least 250 people

[Littlegyno 13.0]

yowl people dumb as fuck complaining about training.

karnor's castle had 213 people in one of the most accidental train filled zones. it's part of everquest with such high numbers.

Lol Empire's "push" was when they grabbed every mob in the zone and between 3 monks kept them all at the zonelines. The Super Block train was pretty blatantly obvious aswell, accidental trains are one thing and aye they do happen, but most of them were not accidental. +1 vote for active GMs, at least on sim repop days.

Ryosuke of fresh is a real scumbag. That don't dont give a fuck how obvious his training is lol

[Efwan]

and Colgate's math is so bad, lol, love how he counts the desync's from his guild, but not the desync's from our side, which were just as bad, over half our guild crashed before they could even cast a spell or push auto attack.

[jibekn]

I had so much fun at this fight. That was the craziest most intense 3 hours of my everquest career and i hope it only gets better from here. Our first time working together, that whole fight I never even spoke to 75% the people on my team. Would be cool to see these guilds growing and working together on a more regular basis and a more stable alliance for the purpose of defending this land against the bigots.

a few things left me salty, Edward turned off the leadersboard mid fight because they were losing 4 to 1 in YT's. later they started selectively taking away YT when they took my kill on traj for jibeknn and 3 kills on my cleric. That combined with the 2 major trains you ran in and dropped on us. one of them killing our res station on the superblock. I'm totally disgusted by that behavior and plan to prepare for it in the future.

but yeah that shit was awesome hope to see more. I didnt record any of it so if somebody did they should post it.

[Pseudechis]

Trains were bad for us too we just chose to split force to manage them. We controlled dl and kc and managed the mobs and pvp evenly. Was a good battle but the better geared more adaptive team won

[Symbioticforks]

no point talking about training in a fight that large. Unless you personally got fraps of someone running around doing super blatant training.

Having Gore trained to druid rings when we zoned in was a nice touch.

so full of shit, nice try tho

[grannock]

Fun times, sad that the server cant handle mass pvp like that.

[magician]

i always come out on top this is a repeating occurrence. fuck im goog?

[FaithlessKR]

The Super Block train was pretty blatantly obvious aswell

Should tell elemtal to not let his pet run into mobs then

[snufzaimoverlord]

Wow Miranda is amazing somehow got all the mobs in KC then lev'd up to top of superblock since that is possible.

Use your Brian she obviously healed someone

[Rednaros]

god that was a shitty fight, grats to whoever got to experience it
literally zoned in and desynced immediately, everyone disappeared so I /q'd in basement at 100% HP and logged in dead at entrance
wtf

[Buhbuh]

we're better than you at this game, i think, is the moral here.

[Rednaros]

had fun though, 91 empire vs 120 others

[Macc]

Take it all for what it was worth. Shit was fun. Thank you to all that was there. I hope to see some more of this very soon.

[Efwan]

Should tell elemtal to not let his pet run into mobs then

Lol check the ss elem didn't have a pet out yet after comin back from dc. All mobs on the one empire player up there.

At least your numbers are pretty spot on

[vouss]

Reports seem skewed. Majority of people were not able to play the game, but a lucky few were able to run around and kill LD players, hmm.

[Masq]

goog battle, i tip my hat to you.

until next time

[dontbanpls]

had fun, glad to see the server getting back to mass pvp. lets keep it up! See ya next week for more

yowl people dumb as fuck complaining about training.

karnor's castle had 213 people in one of the most accidental train filled zones. it's part of everquest with such high numbers.

Cause you know hands / bodygaurds always just end up in your average right moat entrance fight.

[Rednaros]

ya mass pvp great but seriously holy fuck that desync

[fred schnarf]

tomorrow afternoon in hate you mean?

and tomorrow night in fear?

then in skyfire?

you going to contest, contest.

[Rednaros]

ya they prolly wont show tomorrow lets be real

[quido]

Yeah sorry guys, leaderboard monitor went down due to desyncs like 30 minutes into the fight, and since that time we've been having trouble with the webserver and are working to fix it.

I was online for almost every missed kill, so I will comb my logs a little later and get the stuff updated.

[Fang]

Lite where you on a different server tonight or something? I'm amazed at how much shit certain <Azreal> and <Fresh> members push on these forums, but I'm even more amazed at how many idiots seem to eat it up.

[Tickle-me-tiggle]

I can't remember how exactly, but I've seen 300 or so people in zones like WW contesting zones like ST or NTOV or simply key dragons and not seen issues that bad. Sure lag was an issue, and you had to turn particles off...but you could still function.

Might become a serious issue if guilds decide to contest and there are 300 people in zones where you are trying to fight a raid mob and simply DC repeatedly, they wouldn't even need to engage you in PvP to stop you from progressing.

[quido]

I kek irl to your stupid sig of lies... just be real eddard .. you fucking suck.

Do you think you're better than Eddard?

You are hands down the worst melee I have ever seen.

You click your mouse to move forward.

ragnaros does this too!!

not sure which :rolleyes:

[quido]

Nope ... I know I suck. I admit it. I don't click my mouse to move forward. Not sure why you keep saying that

You told me you do, lol.

And it shows.

So why do you think you're qualified to accuse someone of being bad at PvP when they would obviously whoop your ass in a duel?

Let the better players make the insults ya moran.

[Nirgon]

Remember when we had mass DCs and deaths to it that it was labeled as "here comes the excuses"

[FaithlessKR]

and Colgate's math is so bad, lol, love how he counts the desync's from his guild, but not the desync's from our side, which were just as bad, over half our guild crashed before they could even cast a spell or push auto attack.

There was nobody from our side able to attack on our initial zonein due to de-sync. We lost 40 before anyone was able to perform any actions whatsoever, facts are facts.

You deff didn't see Yibz train up to hands. I was desynched the entire time and never made it past the entrance. Eventually just had to fight in DL until I got gunned down :-)

Had a blast today, boys. Hoping for more of this and a lot less lag next time!

[Jeni]

There was nobody from our side able to attack on our initial zonein due to de-sync. We lost 40 before anyone was able to perform any actions whatsoever, facts are facts.

Everyone in empire seemed to be able to run to the back of the right moat just fine.

[Smedy]

glad i didnt stay up to desync instantly #everquest

[FaithlessKR]

Everyone in empire seemed to be able to run to the back of the right moat just fine.

We zoned in, ran to moat and along the way every character, pet, and mob in the zone disappeared from our screens. Was called for everyone to camp out but I tried to cast de mask so the server was still waiting for my cast to go off for 2 minutes.

Finally had to nut up and /q and wait for call to log back in, hoping I wasn't one of the first 25 dead on right moat de-sync. Came back in and everyone from both sides was standing still for the most part, and I got ported from right moat corner to right side of zone in, then back to moat and then died as 15 spells hit me at the same time.

[ElemtalRZ]

100% Certain that you can see players from holocaust in my PvP video zoning in and attacking. Keep making up those lies salt that if it wasn't for the trains on our rez station and super block you guys wouldn't have done anything.

[quido]

I could do stuff for the first 20 or 30 seconds after we zoned in, then I desynced for the next 20 or 30 minutes

[FaithlessKR]

100% sure nobody from holocaust is seen attacking in your video since we were running to the corner by right moat, desync happened while running there. Keep making up lies elemtal.

[pgerman]

we've broken everquest


made guilds so large it's impossible to pvp with equal numbers without crashing a zone


some may ask, whats the point?


What do you guys really want to do on this server? Velius pvp will be the same way if people actually choose the "recruit and contest" way of life.

At this point no one can claim victory because there is no end game. It's ether downing extremely ez pvE content with 10x the amount of people, or lagging so bad in mass pvp that its no fun for anyone.

[Barladore]

I could do stuff for the first 20 or 30 seconds after we zoned in, then I desynced for the next 20 or 30 minutes

Yea, generally speaking, I think something will have to be done to address this. The server really cant handle fights involving more than 100 people in one zone. Unfortunately for anyone living outside the eastern timezone it is incredibly unplayable. Personally (west coast) I couldnt move/attack/cast until there were less than 80 inside.

[Ezalor]

how about a stress test to determine what number of players in a zone is playable for pvp?

[derpcake]

yeah.. who the fuck accidentally runs to hands room and brings the mobs to ent? lol

Some kind but confused soul got lost, or more likely, a pet was feared!

They want uncontested pixels. Squashing a force that can't compete is the only force they want to "compete" against. This "alliance" doesn't love each other, but there's nothing better than killing a zerg amiright?

[Whoa2323]

Lol @ those that truly believe the lag/desyncs somehow only affected <Empire>. I guess I shouldn't be shocked but are some of you really that dumb? Time to put the tinfoil hats down and realize it was a crapfest for everyone involved. Admittedly to varying degrees but it was not an <Empire> only problem.

That being said even with the lagfest the fight was crazy fun and I'm sure will happen again. Brace yourself for more desyncs, trains, and tears.

At the start you had enough people not de-synced to stick our entire raid force through a meat grinder as we frantically tried to camp and /q because we couldn't see players, mobs or pets. I believe the count on kills prior to us logging back in was already at 27.

27 kills before a single member of empire was able to fight back, and another 13 when we had gongshow and like 3 others capable of doing any damage through the desync and we lose another 10.
