Less Mini-Wars, More Practice?
By Dalejamesw on 07/03/2008
Personally i think we need more practice and some more tactic rather than doing 3ish MiniWars per week and loosing them all, week in week out.
We're seriously lacking tactic, 3v i saw some tatic being put in with the snipe unit.
Nonetheless everyone does really well.
Cant really say much im just tired of loosing every week and would rather spend the time practicing and learning tactics and im sure thier are others.
With a little more practice and little less warring i dont see what is affecting us from loosing, we're pulling decent.
I wouldnt mind them tatic videos lordy used to make.
Theres my two cents.
:\
I might not be a good tanker or good sniper etc.etc. but i dont care thats what practice is for.

If you wnna keep loosing then Ok.
By Zlatan83 on 07/03/2008
Agreed
We can easily find clans in W17 - There is like a small "team" there playing every night or so - Sardte/Bella Sedai/Sir Dazzy / Nemesis boy - are their CC.

o.0 for help tanking, this is what i did, it helps with hugging.
Go to duel arena, u get food, and no armour or wep. You use the barricades as an option and hug them with them using a whip os high dmg weapon and you try anticipating your attacker and hugging the stuff so he gets stuck. Its not the greatest but its good enough if you suck. Make sure the person is at least your level or higher.

Ye we make some

Success is a combination of both practice and experience
By Snowzak on 08/03/2008
Right, it looks like people want practice events, then we'll have some.
My frame of mind was that minis would actually give us practice, since they are the real thing. I think we've been learning quite a bit from the losses we've been having - and I think that it's by warring that you do get better.
We'll make practice events (there's discussion going on in Level 3), but do attend if we make them, because practice with 10 people is worth nothing.
I still think having wars is the best way to practice, but practice events can't be harmful.
By Elyxiatic on 08/03/2008
I actually think many things.
Here are some
1. Yes, give us practice.
Doesn't look good to be losing 3/4 mini-wars a week.
Then every single opponent out there will want to mini-war us because they say "lol, wg is an easy win".
Half the ppl in a fight get ko'd, half are scared to hybrid.
You seriously need to work on these two things.
- Notice when you are getting piled + when the opponent might pile you
- If 1 person has binding gear on, they stand out. Make 4-5 ppl in a fight have binding gear on + then you'll get binds on your opponent.
2. Mini-wars we can win.
Loss, loss, loss, loss week in, week out.
At least start fighting against lower clans if we constantly can't win the higher ones.
I don't care if it isn't a clan everybody knows.
As long as we can win + it's a decent challenge, we should be fighting them.
After a few wins of those clans, everybody has a boost in confidence, we then should move onto the larger clans.
3. Mini's for Aussies.
I know karel, is like, getting up early in the morning to attend those mini's we've been having.
Two problems with this:
- Many aussies can't attend due to work (me).
- He was assigned as an "aussie-timezone-based" raid leader.
So I would like to see less cwa trips for aussies + more mini-wars.
I wouldn't really care if it's 5v5, I really don't give atm.
We need something other than boring old cwa against randoms atm.
I know this clan is EST based, it's a lie if you say it isn't, like was said so in a recruitment vid 6 months back.
But at least don't neglect us, or we will have to move on.
4. Umm, decent pkers?
Ppl like bto used to pk.
They know how to pk.
We need ppl that know how to pk.
Otherwise, it'll just be fight upon fight of losing for us.
Instead of people just rocking up to a fight + attending half-assed, umm, recognize those who can actually pk properly + think fast within the wars.
Then ppl will strive for that, general pking/warring technique will increase.
Anyway, that's it.

I agree 100%. Practice is one thing, but those who know how to PK, who have pked for real back in the day, are more useful than those who don't.
Im not saying exclude those who don't, but like he said acknowledge those who can. Use them.
Maybe make them teach others?
Just a few thoughts.

+1
maybe this should be such as mandatory for trial guardians to show their war experiances and to make them better.

That's like participitating in a rally when you've never driven a rally car before, but driven a vauxhall astra in 30mph residential streets all your life.
Some people will have war experience, but people need practice, and sometimes they can go blank in the last minute prep talks in wars, because they've never really had the experience before.
