Last week sometime I went on a war with 3x (3xtermination) on one of their accounts when asked by a leader. They did a few things differently, some good but some bad.

Teamcapes:
All though I agrue with Abs over this, they do actually help new members. I knew none of 3x and they didn't have teamcapes on. I found it very hard to follow the pile to begin with. Teamcapes should be manitory from now on as it helps newer members. If our applications were closed and everyone knew everyone, then fine. But we don't. TEAMCAPES SHOULD BE WORN.

Rune Maces
i don't how often it is for you guys that you die because you ran out of prayer rather than food. Rune Maces give a +5 prayer bonus. So if you run out of prayer regulary, throw a rune mace in your inventory and equip that when you get piled. But remember, when you get piled, Prayer First, Food if needed, THEN the Mace. Don't equip it first and get yourself koed.

First Pile
I thought it was a bit strange when 3x piled a level 116 first, but it was an instant KO. He wouldn't have expected it at all, neigher would I, and when we're defending im gonna be scared, cause I doubt i'd have time to throw prayer on and start tanking. I think we should start attacking the higher levels first (stay 110+). Also, they did a countdown on TS for when to attack, not just the leader attack ingame. Worked better IMO. And spam: "Red:@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@" works kinda cool aswell, we allready to it sometimes though.

Pileing
Traditionally, we would say "W on ....". However, what 3x did was just spam "x" to make a spam tower so other could see where they were. However, all names were called on TS. It worked great, and if somebody doesn't have soundeffects on and isn't paying attension to their HP. Its an instant KO.

Not sure what you'll think of all these but I think they're good. Also, there is a recording of the 3x war below if you wanna see the tactics in use:

Teamcapes definatly need to be mandatory.

I've suggested the ingame spamming of just W before- it makes it much easier/faster to spam+ combined with calling on Ts, could be much more effective than our normal tactic

Yeah, I suggest we just spam "W" rather than the name. Make TS mandatory so that the name is called on TS and the spamming is mainly for direction.

The best tactic is the nameless spam. The only time the mace may become useful is when they only have like 10 people left piling you.

This is a good suggestion. The nameless spam is good because of instant ko's.

Teamcapes : I agree about you here, EVERYONE should wear them, the only reason is that leader can wear skill capes so they can easily be spotted for fall ins etc.

Rune Maces: if they do not know how to tank , then bringing one instead of staff would not be so good.

Pileing : agree with you again , everyone say their name.

First Pile : Agree about you again, we usually pick lower levels first but everytime they are expecting it. and its always me that tells others to have @@@ on

Nice suggestions. I do believe teamcapes should be mandatory esp. in F2P for the exact same reasons stated. As for P2P, in fights like matched opts, then other capes with more bonuses should be worn 'cos you should already know your team anyway.

When I was in RSD, they made us memorize the names of members in the clan but I guess that would be a lil too hardcore for us now lol

I would still go with piling low levels first tho. You won't exactly know for sure how good someone is at tanking, whether he's lagging or if he's not paying attention. When you go for lower levels, you know for sure, his stats, esp. def, isn't that good so you can get piles going faster.

If there's a need to be tactical, then leaders can be the first few targets too

As long as we have spam tower, things should be good thumbsup.gif

Another thing we could do is scan their memberlist before the war, and find any mid-levels with low defence and higher atk/str ie. barrows pures. Might be a bit of trouble when we're defending, though

some good suggestions u got there.
And i never knew that about the rune maces ohmy.gif so ima bring one next time biggrin.gif
And yea i totally aggree that we should definatly all wear teamcapes to a war so much easier to tell who to atk and who not to atk and where ur piles are.
But with the "X" spam tower thing i dissaggree with it, because if we have ppl spamming "W on ..." its the same thing except we know which person they are atking, and also our raid leaders to call the names on TS biggrin.gif
But ya god suggestions

All Good points and that rune mace thingy your talking about is an okay idea iv tried it myself a couple times.

Piling mid high levels at the start is good sometimes just gotta make sure its not their main tankers. You should also try piling their main TS callers/fall in leaders too helps out gud.

Spam should be always kept to a brief 3 letter call as W ker. Or doing straight W to find where you are is gud. EoS has done it lots of times.

Team Capes are essential. They may look like crap and stuff but it helps you get that 1 click on the enemy. And if your high level u can be a jerk and take yours off from time to time so the other teams low levels cant 1 click you. Its really fun to tank like that lol
