BOtB - Guild vs Guild

[kotton05]

Let's be honest. At this point nothing is that trivial. Seems there is a lot of question who's the best.

Is it awakened for their methodical tracking and endless encounters at late hours?

Is it aftermath for their seasoned TMO vets?

Is it Rustle for the ex rampage and fearless leaders?

Could it be CSG? Lots of hella geared folks in their that are low key!!

Well, I propose we pick two mobs, one being a 32k hp and one being a velious merb. I think trak/zlandi could work (trak being the triggered one with lair clear idk the best velious one, need ideas)

The participating guilds would all bet their minimum # to engage without a wipe.
The guilds would then post their engage for all to see.


I'm down to squash all the banter now to see who gets the true bragging rights. If anyone wants to help bring this to life let me know. Even if it just ends up being a triggered trak still think it'll be fun to see how each guild goes about min maxing.

[icedwards]

Pretty fun idea

[skarlorn]

Pretty fun idea

[kotton05]

Maybe switch zlandi with vindi?

[Naethyn]

Vindi is a better pick. Have that go down then up the stakes.

[Lammy]

can I come?

[Detoxx]

Sign me up! I know our lowest trak was 12 and vindi 17

[Tupakk]

And here I thought I was gonna read a PVP guild vs guild.

[Lhancelot]

Sounds cool!

[Phatso]

in before guild artist challenge

dieing server will be dead

[mickmoranis]

Then merge red blue and see which one wins with easy mode turned off

[Mead]

Then merge red blue and see which one wins with easy mode turned off

Yea red would be good for this challenge seeing as they always have to do raid bosses with 12 people.

[mickmoranis]

The best part is when those 12 people would kill 64 people than do the boss :D

[raato]

CSG did our first MotG with 9, but other than that we don't support low number kills because we want everyone to have fun, no matter how useless you are.

Sometimes at Ring War and AoW we have to ask useless guys to log out to prevent desyncing and its always sad :/

LOL :) thats a guild strat necessary for Zlandi for sure.

Well wouldn't you want to try it with Europa? I said csg but in my mind I thought since it was abit smaller engage force each of the 3 guilds from csg should be able to try it.

[Yasi]

How about all of them enter the arena and the last standing player will be allowed to keep his acccount?

[Swish]

Would there be player limits? Or bring as many as you like?

[kotton05]

Loser leaves server type LMS?

[Spyder73]

Anyone reading this who thinks this is a "cool idea" needs to realize they have beaten P99 and move along. Not all games are meant to be played forever.

I didn't sit thru 4 years of kunark just so I can move along xD

I just want to see if we can get some good videos and banter going, this is way more friendly of a competition than most Raids this server sees weekly for most spawns.

Showcasing PVE at its finest (its most likely what you would do on an instanced server anyways)

[danzig]

This could be fun if someone wants to organize it. I think all you'd need is a ranking page with a video next to each.

I mean people speed-run "A Boy and His Blob," we could go real far down this rabbit hole.

[Daldaen]

Derakor and Triggered Trakanon are the obvious targets.

Derakor can probably be done with 12 dudes. Trakanon can probably be one grouped at this point.

But lots of those low numbers kills are just like 5 Clerics 1 of the necessary support and 10 rogues. Would prefer to see a crew of 1 of each class and see what that raid of players can do.

[Kagey]

Is it Rustle for the ex rampage and fearless leaders?



You got more BDA than ex rampage. Surprised you decided not to acknowledge that, way to hurt their feels.

[Mistle]

It would definitely be cute, seeing which of the little fishies in their little pool can be tbe biggest little fishy of them all.

Never happen though. Let other guilds have an uncontested Trak and Zland? There are bps and hearts to rmt. I mean sell in ec. "Sell". Yeah.

this is a great post , I agree that if you consider people watch all those awesome games done quick someone will watch this. I'm sure if we scrap together a little show case based off friendly competition in the long run it'll be cool for new players and returning players to watch.

Once I get a little more organized I might make a real server post. I would hope other non top end guilds would participate like f/v and infernus. Just be fun to see the numbers and damage parses/time of engage.

Dude triggered trak can be spawned over n over.

I also agreed with naethyn that vindi is a better starting point and encompasses the classic tank n spank real well.

Pretty much this. Just an attempt to get free, rotated pixels.

This competition should start with Rolandal (http://wiki.project1999.com/Rolandal)

[supermonk]

when I read the subject thread, I was hoping you would suggest each guild would nominate one person to represent each class then do a guild vs. guild battle.

Make them sit for fifteen hours straight non afk staring at a door or stairs and THEN fight.

Its not a test of skill without fifteen hours of staring at stairs. This is p99!

I was thinking that 10 enchanters with charmed pets > 10 rogues. no?

[BallzDeep]

I find it funny that the people who are most interested in this....are the so-called casuals. It basically just comes down to class make-up, latency and chance. 90% of the time the guilds that kill shit with less people, they didn't intend on it and they've done the complete opposite where they have killed it with 20 and then also done the complete opposite and wiped with 50 before. I guess anything that floats your boat when your stuck in rustle but seeking acknowledgement.

lol.. such a troll post.. and idiotic.. so the only reason people kill shit with less is luck with latency.. no skill at all involved. Suuuuuurrreee.

[mefdinkins]

I will sit this one out cause a wiz ain't getting invited no where.

Too bad no manaburn raids will ever happen here. )

[BallzDeep]

You must be new to the raid scene. Luck is a larger factor than skill in a game where you press maybe 8 keys maximum and auto-attack? Desync, Timing of AoE's and effects are a much larger importance than "skill" in this game. If what you say is true, why is alt+tabbing a thing? Skill you say?

Honestly, you just sound like a glass half full kinda guy. I look at the same variables and see it taking a good amount of skill to avoid unlucky AoE timing, repops, crits on the tank, desync, etc. Every raid guild here has had unlucky situations they have managed to survive by good spot healing, tank reactions, dps moving, etc. A good crew with good cohesion can turn bad luck into a successful run. Maybe not 100% of the time, but who cares. It's still a cool challenge.

[BallzDeep]

There is a small amount of skill but people mostly came to the realization that this game is all about time, luck, reading up on shit that someone else already wrote and a small fraction of skill. 99% of the time on good spot healing- the healer didn't even know he was going to be clutch until it actually happened because it's all based on random crits, hits and everything else. The same guilds that cleared shit with 12, wiped to Gore with 60+. The only thing that requires skill is learning from your mistakes which most people do after they've killed the dragon once or twice and how quickly you can read Allah and apply it.

[Spyder73]

/Cringe

[Tasslehofp99]

Jus have GM's implement /guildwar, that would be fun.

[Lieslana]

Rustle did Vindi with 14 on day 1 of the guild. Can we do it again ?

[Nommis]

It was actually at least 18-20 including myself <AW> and Troop <Ven>. Others not included in the parse (or in view) are:

Kaleader, Rotation, Getsome, Braad, Tabasko, Gurv, Slowdown, Nothing, (maybe Sibrina)
