sirens control?

Is there something wrong with sirens balance? I spent about 2-3 hours gettin hero control of the zone. I come back an hour later and already its close to slipping back to vill.
What is going on? And in the past when I have turned total control to heroes with the extra temps its back to villains in a few hours. Without player intervention do arach just pwn LB?

Or is there some villain who goes in every day and turns it back to villains. I go in regular and that last time i remember heroes having control I had done it. And that was a long time ago.

Thanks ROOKS. No idea what you are implying but thanks for the response.

Sorry for breaking the run of emptiness on the pvp forum with sensible questions.

Cant imagine why no one posts here anymore?

If I translated that right I would agree one Widow I think it was took down 3 competent PvPers in SC this was my last experience of PvP and frankly again I would say the 'balance' Dev was on holiday the day they sanctioned that.(see other post about PvE plant control)

Fair enough. No idea why you are so intent on trolling me in such a fashion.

Anyone else noticed this problem with sirens?
I spoke to someone in game before who claimed it was the same with defiant sirens. Always villain controlled.

Is it a quirk of the zone or is there a villain like the tooth fairy with a mission to control sirens call?

As I see it even a full 8 man squad satnds little chance against a couple of patient Stalkers, you WILL have to rest from all the manic movement and they WILL kill you. Game Over thanks for playing please insert more credits!!!

Well I thought fortunata's were over powered but admittedly overall they are balanced in a relative way. Stalkers are fine tbh.

Bigger problem is how daunting pvp is to newbies but there is another thread adressing these issues.

Btw tonight with someone i met in sirens while i was fighting for control, it was me on a scrap and an emp against 3-4 stalkers and neither of us died while the stalkers had a few casualties.

Stalkers are fine in themselves. I think the problems they cause are due to wider issues that are far more complicated than a simple nerf to stalkers could solve.

Don't ask the question if you can't accept the answers

For the record, no fortunata can stand up to a half decent Fire/Em Blaster. Holds make no difference on proper teams which have multiple sources of grantable mez protection.

That is totally true what i can see from your quote. Seriously Forts are eminently beatable. I have beat them in duels with different toons. I even beat a fort with my pb but the fort was only 42-44 or something.

Well thanks to both of you for completely derailing my thread with something completely unrelated.

Sirens is fine?? I really enjoy the zone on the whole. Yes certain AT's and sets outperform others due to the level limit but there is plenty of fun to be had in there.

I was enquiring about the zone control system. I feel it is biased to villains but atm that is purely conjecture on my part.


 

Posted

Villians I would say obviously get more kills because of the stalker effect, no hero AT allows you those 'Stealth Kill' powers, We can joust for hours with tanks/brutes, Corruptors/Blasters, Maybe scoring 1 to 1 but all the time Stalkers (and possibly the new Veats) are consistantly notching up Kill Count, Hence Red side controls the Zone, without some serious Blue side pressure

Kills have no reflection on zone control? It is down to the battles between longbow and arachnos?


 

Posted

Didn't know that but my 0.02 inf is about spent so in answer to your question, Haven't got a clue! else Longbow must fight like my Granma

Awhile back sirens defiant side was usually in control of the heroes, till some hard working villains went in and changed that. Not sure if there is a real problem with how the npc's affect the zones control. I have not been in sirens for awhile myself so cannot truly speculate other than it might be possible that people are there, when you are not and work to regain control.

No idea if that actually helps but atleast it is on topic.


One of the leaders of the Harlequins villain group and currently on defiant.

That was my experience to, Sirens on Defiant was under hero control pretty much every time i went in there.

But having just checked 2 mins ago, it is under villain control, so perhaps the tide has turned

Rooks and Alphane - hes asking a serious question and all uve done is ignored the point of the OP... what was asked was the controll of the zone, whihc means the fights Vs the Arachnos if Hero and Longbow if Villian.

In SC myself i have experience pretty much Villian Controll, granted the Arachnos have a varied amount of attacks and certainly some that are a lot stronger than the LB themselves, whilst the LB only really have flamethrows and there varied Warden/Officers attacks. the key here is not the inbalance of Arachnos (becoz quite clear they aint over powered), but Vs the uselessness of the LB they are Overpowed Vs LB. thats my two pence

I get the Ops post, but I don't get why it matters =/ When I go to SC its to PvP, not help out in the hot zones.

NPC vs NPC isn't really PvP either, so I don't think many PvPers will reply to the post seriously. This is just my opinion ofc, maybe loads of you care about LB vs Aracs?

Too be honest (Being a bit of a N00B and all)I didn't know control related to NPC action not player interaction. So my apologise to the OP.
