I mean, I manage to transition only with audio, but the odd time I lose sight of the fall in leader I'm just out there in the open in robes, have to switch back to rune and back again... Also, when you move your screen around constantly to be able to bind effectively, "Get on X north-east" is a pain to figure out. AND we could get more KOs, hopefully. --------------------  London RL Meeting attendee - Paris RL meeting attendee Joined WG in October 2005 - Original DG - Ex-Raid Leader Proud Council Member from October 21st 2007 to May 19th 2008 | ||||

Guess this one was different for some reason. We gotta make sure we stick to it, it works wonders. As to your cartographic navigation conondrum, its a good point, but how else are we gonna say where people are? 'ok go left then straight on then right, then towards the grey wall with the trees behind it'. I guess we could use 'jail side' as a direction, then you just gotta differentiate between the 2 team start points. -------------------- ~Aetas: carpe diem quam minimum credula postero~ "Seize the day and place no trust in tomorrow"  | ||||

 IRC Nickname: bto Group: Emeritus Posts: 3815 Member No.: 196 Joined: February 3, 2008 Total Events Attended: 332 | Fall-ins = vital if you want kos. KOs result from either the tank failing hard, or a huge damage burst in literally no time to react. You can't depend on the other team sucking for KOs; the only way you can affect this is through your piling. What was happening at todays fight was basically just a weak stream of people one by one joining the pile; you cant get a ko that way. It is literally like deathmarching; you cant expect a solid pile right off the bat. Also, instead of moving AND trying to find the pile, people just follow and just simply have to find the pile. High tier clans dont need to fall-in as much because of their sheer numbers. -------------------- bto  Ex-WG Warlord  "It is our direction, not our intentions, that lead us to our destinations." | ||||

 IRC Nickname: Gorgemaster Group: Elite Guardian Posts: 9840 Member No.: 3 Joined: December 26, 2007 Total Events Attended: 540 | I guess it's difficult to define whether a fall in is needed. For example if a there's a really good target right next to the guy who just died then there's cause to get on that person without a fall in.... However if their pile is far away or if we are all scattered then a fall in should be called  --------------------    | ||||
