Excellent job guys, we did amazing there, here are my views on the PKRI:
  • Binding: We weren't that good at the start but in the middle we binded good in my opinion, we even got a KO streak of 3 people because of it.
    Conclusion: Keep it up and more binds in the future ##
  • Tanking: Well, lots of people got KO'ed at the start, partly because they had a list of those they were going to pile.
    But it should also be mentioned we had decent tanks as well, especially bto, I remember when you dragged them from GDZ to like the end of the boundaries on the west tree or something, gj. (Or was that snipers only, can't remember)
    Conclusion: Get +90 defence and keep up the good work.
  • Spamming: We lacked at times and at times it was just a recipe for success in KO's, though we should work a lil bit on spamming.
    Conclusion: Spam more and we'll have a better chance in KO's
  • Piling and switching: Bto and Glenn you mates shined up there, pile switching was great, we only had one or two who managed to drag us away enough for us to call a fall in. We also got a good number of KO's.
    Conclusion: Awesome piling, just make sure you get a click even before a pile is called for maximum ko power.
  • Leading: Loved your fall in's Glenn, it was so easy to find our fall in at all times, at least for me.
    Conclusion: white: Wg in #################################
  • Returning: wtfbbq did we ever get less than 75'ish options at the fight? The speed of returning was epic, really gj guys.
    Conclusion: Epic speed guys.

Only one disappointment, the sign ups, we pulled less than the amount of Yes, hope it can be worked on.

Epic job guys, really epic, it was matched for the most part so we did great (Considering their average is 120 f2p too). I can see a good future for us in even better PKRI's

Oh and one more thing:

[21:12:29] <sander> was our first decent pvp fight tbh
[21:12:37] <sander> first one i enjoyed myself
[21:12:40] <sander> crash free except for se

They PKRI a lot too, so don't take my word on how well we did, look at his response too :P

Feel free to post what you thought about the war and your own personal review.

To be completely honest, i thought were were in trouble when they pulled similiar to us. We really did a great job fighting against similar numbers and much higher levels.

Great job guys

And yes, I got piled at 100% run so I tanked from east tree around gdz to west tree woeh.gif

Lost like 5 food, looted it back

Everything was perfect. One major thing Mickey needs to work on (Not bashing him, just constructive criticism.)-calling Fall-ins. He does great piles, but when they're finished, it's about 5 seconds or so until he steps out and calls the fall-in.

That

and sign ups. WHERE DID EVERYBODY GO? neko2.gif

Am I the only one who's a bit pessimistic about this fight?

First of all the pull was pathetic. We had the same problem as exer. As soon as a single sniper even came near our pile we would all put our rune on and refuse to come out of it.

The pull we had was pathetic. We've pulled more people to a one day prep. If I may, I would suggest that you'd suspend the people who were signed up as a yes but didn't come.

Hand out warnings to the people who signed up as maybe but still didn't change what they signed up as near the war.

Start to set requirements for Higher Guardians and Elite Guardians. Just like you do for Honoured emeritus. If these requirements are not met they will be demoted to normal Guardian

Same thing for a guardian but they will have to go through the trial process again. All of their attendance points and war badges will be removed as well. In the case that they show improvement their old event attendance and War badges can be added back under certain circumstances.

Really, just start coming down harder on these sort of things.

Binding: It was okay. Good at times and aboslutely nowhere to be seen at other times.

Organisation: Generally good, although at times I really didn't know where there was a fall in. Next time just walk out and call a fall in and keep walking while everybody follows. This way there is more speed in it. It all needs to be one fluent motion and organised and well oiled machine.

That covers about it.

We did great.

I'm not going to lie at the beginning when I saw what we had pulled and what they had pulled I thought it would be very tough for us. The first part of the fight was definately in their favour but we hung in there and got the job done.

Things I think we need to improve on:

Attendance - No idea where everyone that said they would come were, but theres no way we can expect to win fights if our sign-ups don't reflect what we actually bring to fights. If you say you will be there, be there. If you find out you can't attend make sure you post saying so. It's a real annoyance having a sign-up of [a certain number] and pulling 10-15 less [than that number]

Binds - They were better than usual but we can still do much better. Way more of us had binds to this fight which is great, but we have to use them. Other clans only allow us like 3 steps with their binds, we give up a solid 10+. Don't get me wrong our binds were a definite improvement but can still get better. Binds are crucial and if we want to win more we need better binds.

Anti-Snipe - They had like the same 4 people on our hybrids for almost the whole fight and for about half of the fight they were being untouched. We need to make sure we have people anti-sniping or at least pile those snipers a bit more often to get them off of us for a short while.


Overall good work Guardians but we can improve.

Anti-sniping was terrible.
Honestly I went through the whole fight + was attacking snipers for 80% of the time.
Did we even have set anti-snipers?
I know I wasn't one.

But hey, the rest of the fight went well.

Rene, we had some difficulty in the PKRI because most of those came with us aren't experienced in PKRI's, this can only be fixed with more experience. In the mean time, I say we enjoy the victory. smile.gif

Yeah I agree Mike,
We will get more experienced and bigger and better as we do more PKRIs, so yah.
Considering that the odds were against us and that we are relatively inexperienced when it comes to PKRIs, we did really well!
Now we gotta do well in CWA and win Raw Rank 7!

Judging by all the posts I've read, it seems as though we could've done a lot better, but were still pretty good.

I think what we need is to hold some fun fights with our allies in PvP to help us with returning and organization and all that good stuff.

@Rene

I don't think giving people warn levels if they don't change their "Maybe" to a "Yes" or "No" by the 24HR mark would accomplish anything. I know it wouldn't for me. I say maybe because every war is between 3:30-5AM for me, so I REALLY don't know if I can make it. If I can stay up that late, then I'll be there, if I get tired, I won't. For this PKRI, I went to sleep one hour before it started. I thought I could have stayed up longer, but I couldn't.

Things like that happen. You really don't know until it's about to start.

I do however agree with talking to people that say "Yes," but don't show up, there is a problem there.
