just some light entertainment in Warburg

This is from my log of Monday night. Everything that was said and emoted is included, minus other players' names (and the obscenities edited out by the forum software).

I log onto my fortunata (Dominique Moreau) in Warburg (Virtue) and see a team of two super strength/willpower brutes fighting arachnoids. I check their info to see which is the weaker and kill her first. The other is able to heal and consume enough green inspirations; eventually I run low on endurance (I don't use inspirations on this character) and withdraw for a rest. The brutes return; I kill the weaker one quickly, and the arachnoids get the kill on the other.

Expecting them to throw in the towel and leave Warburg, I return to chatting with a friend about another game. Once again they return.


11-01-2010 19:44:40 [Tell] --><my friend>: damn, these guys are persistent. one sec


Arachnoids again get the kill on the stronger, but the weaker is able to reach the hospital before I can finish her.


11-01-2010 19:48:20 [Broadcast] <weaker brute>: :P


This time I move to another part of the island to resume my conversation. Soon /whoall reveals that not only have they not left, the weaker brute has switched to a scrapper. I return to investigate and discover that she's martial arts/regen, but probably not much more threatening than her brute. I ignore her entirely and go for the stronger brute. Without the arachnoids, I still can't overcome the greens and heals, and so eventually must withdraw.

The brute speaks.


11-01-2010 20:06:25 [Broadcast] <tough guy brute>: thats right u better keep running


I rest up and return to find the brute glowing green, a sign hung on him by our thoughtful developers to let everyone know that he has a launch code and his five-minute launch timer is running. I resume the attack as he runs for the launch terminal pillbox and the regen scrapper tries to kill me. We reach the launcher and the brute speaks again.


11-01-2010 20:11:04 [Broadcast] <tough guy brute>: ******* ***** u better kill me


At this point I decide that he isn't going to be leaving with his rocket. I activate my jet pack and hover over the launch terminal, webbing them both to the ground and continuing the attack on the brute. Eventually the launch timer runs out before he can get enough of a break to enter the launch code. Low on health and probably low on greens, unable to get off the ground, the super strength/willpower brute seeks refuge inside the pillbox. I turn off the jet pack and land on the pillbox.


11-01-2010 20:15:14 Dominique Moreau yawns


Deep within his concrete redoubt, the brute vents his spleen.


11-01-2010 20:15:33 [Broadcast] <tough guy brute>: then go the **** away u piece of ****
11-01-2010 20:15:57 [Broadcast] Dominique Moreau: Not after the rudeness. Now you have my full attention.
11-01-2010 20:16:02 [Broadcast] <tough guy brute>: unless u wanna stand toe to toe sto p that ***** jumping
11-01-2010 20:16:34 [Broadcast] <tough guy brute>: and the rudeness because yer trash


Leaping from building to building to avoid the regen scrapper, I consider what to do about the brute hiding in the pillbox. Seeing him peek out of the doorway, I try something I've never used in PvP since I started in i6: I put a Shivan on the doorstep. Rather than avoid the Shivan, the brute and scrapper begin attacking it there at the pillbox door. I get behind the Shivan and resume my attack on the brute through the doorway. Before long the brute runs back inside the pillbox, chased by the Shivan, while the scrapper switches back to me. Eventually, in what I suppose was a final act of desperation, the regen scrapper presses the self-destruct button.


11-01-2010 20:18:30 <regen scrapper> MISSES! Self Destruction power had a 13.61% chance to hit, but rolled a 52.47.
11-01-2010 20:18:30 Shivan Decimator: <regen scrapper> MISSES! Self Destruction power had a 37.42% chance to hit, but rolled a 59.88.


Concluding that he's not better off alone inside the pillbox with the Shivan, the brute emerges. Time to put an end to this.


11-01-2010 20:19:08 Chemical Warfare: HIT <tough guy brute>! Your Warburg Chemical Weapon power had a 54.31% chance to hit, you rolled a 46.55.


What the hell, I already had two lab tech codes dropped by the weaker brute. Have another nuke.


11-01-2010 20:19:23 Nuclear Blast: HIT <tough guy brute>! Your Warburg Nuclear Weapon power had a 62.06% chance to hit, you rolled a 60.94.

11-01-2010 20:19:30 You gain 487 infamy.
11-01-2010 20:19:30 Fatalists gains 7 prestige.
11-01-2010 20:19:30 You receive a bounty of 5.00 reputation!
11-01-2010 20:19:30 You gain 1.00 reputation.
11-01-2010 20:19:30 You have defeated <tough guy brute>

11-01-2010 20:19:36 [Broadcast] Dominique Moreau: You lose.
11-01-2010 20:20:45 [Broadcast] <tough guy brute>: yer an ******* u killed me but i can respawn u can't change being an ******* :P


The regen scrapper revives, probably hoping to finish me off. Not feeling particularly merciful at the moment, I kill her. They return immediately; again I can't overcome the greens and heals and have to withdraw. They leave Warburg, and to my surprise, the tells begin.


11-01-2010 20:33:07 [Tell] <tough guy brute>: and u seen i was doing scientists thats why i was rude you were rude first
11-01-2010 20:33:47 [Tell] --><tough guy brute>: Go read the warning about PvP zones. I could care less why you are here.

11-01-2010 20:47:34 [Tell] <tough guy brute>: well hope ya run and fly fast
11-01-2010 20:47:51 [Tell] <tough guy brute>: because thats the ONLY way you'd beat me in rv
11-01-2010 20:48:02 [Tell] --><tough guy brute>: Bane with gun attacks instead of mace. Probably the only one in PvP. That's why everyone knows me. Except you.


On Virtue, that is. Don't know about other servers.


11-01-2010 20:49:14 [Tell] <tough guy brute>: well i have been in rv alot lately, like last 3 weeks, because that is when i started pvping and i haven't seen u
11-01-2010 20:49:39 [Tell] --><tough guy brute>: True, I haven't been there much lately. Been leveling a PvE brute.
11-01-2010 20:52:00 [Tell] <tough guy brute>: well u beat me in rv in a fair toe to toe fight and i'll call u the man
11-01-2010 20:53:40 [Tell] --><tough guy brute>: You can call me anything you want. I don't fight "toe to toe" on either of these characters. I just make sure the orange names die.
11-01-2010 20:54:32 [Tell] <tough guy brute>: lol thats what i figured, what kinda talent or skill is it to fly and run around? none so i'll call you what i want lol
11-01-2010 20:55:16 [Tell] --><tough guy brute>: I don't think your 3 weeks of experience, such as they are -- fiteklubbing -- qualifies you to judge my level of competence.
11-01-2010 20:56:01 [Tell] <tough guy brute>: yer right about me being a pvp noob, but i seen enough to know, if u can't toe to toe u ain't ****


I elected not to reply. Hey, who can argue with reasoning like that? Not me.

If you wouldn't RP and actually use inspirations on that toon then you may have beaten them without having to go away to rest or recover your endurance.

That is what I got out of reading that and that they were bad because the 2 of them should have been able to beat you, if they would have had a clue on what they were doing.

Sounded like none of the three in that story really knew what they were doing. And you were half fiteklubbing yourself since you 'don't use inspirations on that character'.

..and who the hell is Axl?

Ok, I'll give you a serious reply about fiteklubbing and inspirations.

The problem people have with fiteklubbers, myself included, is that they expect others to follow their own simplistic, imaginary rules in zone PvP and then complain about it bitterly when others do not.

Like this guy, people in the zones use inspirations against my fortunata all the time, and I ignore it. It's part of this game, I'm used to it, I don't have a problem with it. I mentioned it here only to explain the action. As an irrelevant aside, I make an exception for arena matches and use inspirations when my opponent wants to use them.

Yes, I could use inspirations on my fortunata in zone PvP and be more effective. It's not exactly a profound insight. I could also retire my VEATs for better PvP archetypes; get another account for farming PvP IOs, power-leveling, and buffing myself; only come out to fight when my cooldowns are up; leave the zone to refill my tray after every fight; etc. The list of ways I could be more effective is a lot longer than the utterly obvious "use inspirations". I don't do any of the above merely out of personal preference.

As for the "you don't know what you are doing" observation(s), it's virtually the default comment in every PvP forum I've ever seen. The forum software ought to prepend every reply with it to save time.

I didn't say you didn't know what you were doing, I said the 2 that you beat, had no clue what they were doing.

Wait till those two see you on your Psi/Regen in RV... they'll be sorry!!

:P :P :P :P

who posts that lol
must not have anything else to do .....
well it is expected from x pat pvp. :P

Sadly, he isn't in X-Pats. If anyone knows Squid, He PvPs with what he wants, and he (Most of the time) gets it to work, and does great with it. I still think he's the only huntsman build that does awesome on a team, and great solo. His Fort is still one of the better ones, and PvE wise, his brutes do great.

He posted it to show how people think about PvP zones now a days. Yes, Warburg has nukes and Bloody Bay has shivans, but it's still a PvP Zone and needs to be treated that way, not like Faultline or another PvE zone.

Eh. I read this, got a laugh, and got over it. That was all it was posted for. The Lawls.

No one cares about zone in general or your personal experiences there that lack relevance.

Next time you want to post something so uninteresting, at least make it shorter. Then I'd actually read more than three lines and have something more specific and critical to say.

What's Virtue?

COOL STORIE BRAH!

No but seriously it was amusing, we all get a kick out of angry noobs. On that note what the heck did the OP do to warrant a response like this?

No one cares about selfish ****** bags in general or your personal trolling here that lacks relevance.

Next time you want to post something to make yourself look tough, at least make some valid points and use logic to shut someone else down. Then I'd actually read more than three ignorant words to see if you have something more specific and critical to say.

What's E-peen?

Hey, mad kid. Shut up. Stop whiteknighting, biter.
Something needed to be said. I said it. Your anger isn't welcome here.
Wipe your mouth.

Thank you, Hot! You're my hero. <3

I don't hate Smoke. I don't know you. =/ I don't like you. I don't dislike you. I'm too amazing to know all of the little people, but I can say that I'm trying. With that in mind, please, mad kids. Stop typing and start exercising.

Trash Talk!

They only love you for the flamey chicks.

I'm cool with that.

If you don't like what your reading you're better off leaving the thread then showing how immature you are by bashing others. The forums are a public thing and we have the right to post just about whatever we want. It's best to just get over it b/c you can't stop it.

So you're shaking your finger at the 'bashers' by.. bashing.. them?
