RE: Anybody trying out Frontlines? - Kage - 07-18-2014

I have lots of fun when I get to do it with people can work as a team.

If not, working with my bestie is just as fun.

Because we rock. We make good team.




Most of the time.

Well excuse me. I guess I will stop trying and marking your assailants then since its obviously such an embarrassingly pathetic effort on my part and not worthy of even acknowledging as "anything" =w=

If there's another healer in your group, it's very very hard to kill you.

This, seriously. If you got 2 healers, it's so so so very hard to kill one.

3? Well... I'm more likely going to die approaching the group :/ Cause one of them is most likely going to holy me / drain etc

No one can seem to put pressure on more than one healer at a time.  I had a really solid Scholar with me at one point, and I swear people just started running away.

Wasn't worth it.

I -try- to defend healers, but Dragoons are not the best equipped for that. I find I am more effective creating pressure on enemy casters/healers. But if I see a melee going after one of our healers, I stun and slow them.

I do defend outposts, but if a sizable group does not stay with me, it is often just me and one healer standing there; waiting to see a party of foes come gank us.

Are you from the Adders? ;_;

Adders 4 lyfe!

I am indeed. I was invited to a LS yesterday called "Mad Adders". The LS is dedicated to Twin Adders for Frontlines on Balmung it seems. If you want to join, Clover, I can ask them to invite you, and anyone else interested. Unless, you and K'nahli already joined an EU one?

If we ever end up in a Frontline Party together, I would watch your back..... And likely die with you. Laugh

Ah, we joined one called "Adders! To Arms!" (if I remember well). It's not exactly an EU one, but it was created by an EU player. A very good leader if I may add. The first day we partied with her, the Adders kept winning non stop. Sadly, lately it's been difficult to find matches with people who actually listen.

I hope both LSs can join forces, somehow. The more, the merrier!

Haha, it's better to die knowing that someone out there actually cared ;_;

As a healer, I've met some good Paladins who'll peel my attackers off me using their Shield Bashes and whatnot -- makes me want to give them a kiss Heart. Other times, I hit the PvP skill Attunement (which grants, like, 90% evasion and damage nullification for ten seconds -- the offside being that you're inactive for the period) and happily watch the pile of enemy Paladins, Marauders, Monks, and Dragoons whale at me for nearly no damage to my health bar. It's super funny to watch, too, because my character is a tiny little lalafell.

...Then, ten seconds later, and the dream is gone...

I got caught up in Hunts and grinding CT for Oil (that I never got, grumble) and only managed to go 2-0-1 this week. I am shamed. WAIT FOR ME, LION ARMOR. I'M COMING.

RE: Anybody trying out Frontlines? - Kage - 07-23-2014

I didn't get any real Frontlines during that last reset but...

This is interesting. Haha

RE: Anybody trying out Frontlines? - Aerghwab - 07-23-2014

Cool that they added a multiplier. I actually just unlocked Frontlines myself. I need some Maelstrom folks to queue with!

Take me with you! *clings to the nearest Maelstrom Frontliner's leg, despite being a rather large Roegadyn*

Fixed. I've seen groups with 3-5 heals eat it because they either don't work together, or know Wtf they are doing.

Well, yes.

But that's why it's just like AB.  Big Grin

If you get into a brain dead group, it'll end up scattered all over the map with the healers turning in circles and gazing at their navels!
