We need more, i think its clearly obvious, so can we organise maybe 1 or 2 this week, and hopefully, people will attend without raid leaders having to label it a war.

go go go

Being discussed. I don't want to see rants anywhere. These problems will be fixed and we'll have fun doing it.

The war against DW was a great tank practice.

WG just recruits too many people who have small banks + know nothing about pking in the first place.
Lets fix the problem at the source.

Yeah, the people that need to practice tanking probably won't come anyway.

Not true. Its the people who can't tank and WON'T admit it that will skip.

I can't tank to save my ass but I admit it. Plus I'd come to a Tank Practice every day if we had one tongue.gif

This is very true.
The best practice is in the real thing.
Not necessarily full out wars, but mini wars too.

I definitely need to come to some tanking practices if you have them. Have anyone ever thought about using the calendar anymore? When I first joined weegee it was used alot and was an easy place to quickly find events if I didn't have time to read through all the recent posts. Also, its a good reference to go to if you have not written days and times down. smile.gif

Just get more fights.
Tank practices will never do anything
You learn to tank by tanking in real situations
Don't waste our clan's time on tank practices. They have never worked, and never will work

if we keep making members learn to tank at wars, then the same thing that happened today will keep happening

Yes and no.
Look at all of the good tanks in WG.
They didn't learn in "tank practices."
They learned through experience.

yea msot people perfect their tanking through wars, but some obviously still need to learn the basics.

if people get koed in their robes, they need to l2tank

i didnt really learn to tank until i went a tank practice with DF, from there, i practiced in wars and now i get compliments from lee at the end of war with dw.

wot

Honestly, the basics to tanking are so basic that tank practice means nothing. Any idiot who knows they are about to be piled, with full health, energy, prayer, and inventory can tank 10 WG who are fooling around in a CWA practice. Oh yeah, I forgot. They're also already standing next to a barricade.
You really just have to train your own reactions during wars. It may look like an ugly start at first, but people will learn quick. Those who don't learn tend to not care enough to try.
Its the same people that usually hold us down.
* The ones who "give up" and never learn to tank because its too difficult.
*The ones that "lag too much" or "can't figure out" how to bind.
*The ones that ditch practices and wars and don't inform themselves well enough to succeed.

What if we made a video guide explaining the methods? Do you think it would help?

Already been done.

Nevertheless, don't make practices. I learned how to tank in CWA wars. Maybe that will help?

I honestly think Tank Practices would be nice whenever we had a new member but I noticed I get better from experience.

Once you know the theory of it, you can only do so much. You actually have to experience it to get good at it.
