Nice Match up

Just to say thanks to Hydrax, Develle(?), Dreamreaver, screaming skull and the others in Sirens Call for a really good match last night. Most impressed by the team work and I'm sorry for those nasty squishie snipes

Yup was good fun, nice to see a few new faces around. The battle went back and forth a bit, unusually last night there were more heroes than villains, usually it seems to be the other way around.

A couple of moments that made me smile where against the stormy (eir I think it was), first time I thought right I need to get a bit more accuracy so popped a yellow, did build up and miss, miss, miss with the punches in the hurricane. Short and swift retreat followed (or death can't remember which) :P

Next time I ended up stood next to them I just thought ah well and took a single swing with stun, no accuracy boost at all. *hit* stormy stunned...woooo! Don't think I killed them but still made me smile the randomness of it sometimes heh.

The other great moment for me was running out solo into the middle of about 8 heroes with super speed on, no mez protection just humble rock armour. I zipped in and out and around the group about 5 times, with everyone just turning around to watch where I was going. I assure you I had no plan at that point, it was not a cunning tactic, I had no insps at all just wanted a suicide run with there being no villains near by. What amazed me was the amount of time before someone fired a shot at me, it was like 'what an earth is that idiot brute doing, should we kill it?!', then 1 shot fired from someone and everyone just launched in. Swift face plant followed.

Really getting annoyed with tp in the water btw. It really doesn't work. As you can imagine being stone I don't really have a lot of choice in travel power if I want to move around a fight under my own steam and have mez protection at all. It simply won't allow you to target a spot on the ground in the deep water, so I couldn't tp next to someone to hit them.

Hope they get that bug sorted soon, its a real pain, that coupled with people just dissapearing while swimming means its a big tactic gone for self tp'ing.

Still an excellent night of PvP didn't hear anyone complaining from either side whatever the outcome of the fight. Good stuff

Hell yes, last night was great, evenly matched sides, wonderful people playing, and no complaining at all.

Shame about today then... At the most 5 heroes in the zone, i counted 12 villains not including MM pets camped outside the hero hospital. And we were getting moaned at? I couldn't be bothered to argue, so i left. Hopefully later on we can even the playing field in regards to team sizes and bring it back to what we had yesterday

(By the way, any villain who was there this afternoon, anyone who knows me, knows i love pvp and employ all tactics to win. But i don't camp places that have no defence. Comprendé )

I think I turned up after you were there, they certainly owned the zone due to lack of Heroes. I returned later on after doing PvP missions in Siren's and it was back to normal

Listen, we told you - we were there to get down and boogie.

If there was a stormy around, it certainly wasn't me. You did get me the second time though - I ran the first time after you took Doctor Gonzo out, to back off and rez him. Second time, I stayed to the bitter end, sacrificing myself so he could carry on.

Was certainly a good evening though. I wasn't expecting to have such a good run as an empath/blapper duo, honestly... and more importantly, people really seemed to be having fun, rather than having a go at each other.

Not wanting to start any argument, but I feel I have to set the record straight.

There were six of us on the villain team at the high point - and one of us had left by the time we battled you back that far. One of our teammates headed off elsewhere, leaving me and three masterminds near the hospital. There was one brute who wouldn't join the team but had been hanging around us - I think trying to killsteal, a couple of stalkers who kept bouncing around nearby, and another mastermind who was there some of the time. At the height of the battles a little further down the street, we may have all looked like we were fighting together, but it wasn't an organised attack. I guess the others just followed the battles or their Most Wanted icons up that way.

It does seem a little odd that the hero base has so few defenses compared to the villain base... but on the other hand, most of the map around that area is filled with Longbow, as we kept finding out. Regardless, when I'm fighting on either side, it doesn't bother me if people want to sit near the base. There's always more than one way out, and people will always take the fight where people go - the Most Wanted system makes sure of that. If I want the battle to move elsewhere, I go wherever that is, and let people follow. If you move as a group (as you were, from what I saw) it works. We actually did the same by heading to a hotspot when we decided you really weren't all going to head out, but I guess it must have been just after you'd left.

In all honesty though, if you'd come out in force at the point we were chatting over broadcast and dancing around hoping to get you to all attack, you'd have completely overpowered us, as very few of us were left there. Some of the later heroes who came in quickly figured that out and took two of us down in no time.
