Leveled diadora up almost exclusively solo because the playerbase is very low. That was tedious, and not very fun. I figured, what the hell? Let's take it slow, over a long period of time, and just grind away half a level every few nights. Hopefully the pvp scene would be fun.
Generally speaking, the pvp sucked ballsack. I steamrolled a few noobs, and it was just kinda like, 'eh, whatever'. Got frustrated at the lack of action, and when there was action it was always super lopsided. I'm talking about fighting three assassins (one villager, two village applicants) simultaneously, getting one rounded, just stupid matchups I had no chance of winning.
Then I started to experience the veterans. Look. I'm not going to pretend I'm any good at the game. I can do A/B/S, protection, stoneskin, desensitize, and bring happy devils to a fight, attempt to lag, and do the general "conjie" thing. If I die, I'm not too upset at all. What fucking pisses me off, is the multikilling.
Vanedyl, Erhiadkeb, these fucking jokers obviously are riding high on the power curve of their character's life. If you kill me, that's fine. Erhiadkeb needs to drop me 3 times in an afternoon. Vanedyl has to be up my ass every login, every chance, every minute of every hour. Did I ever once put up a moderate fight? Did I ever get you below 90% hp? Nope.
That's the kind of shit that makes this game unplayable. I don't know what the fuck folks are trying to accomplish, but the tedium of the game is strike one. Strike two is the lack of players. Strike three is the players that are left are multikilling fuckwads hell bent on padding their stats. Finally, the game ain't balanced - you obviously got some crazy power curves on classes which allow a lot of shitty behavior. I complain about that shit, I get smacked for "not roleplaying appropriately". Jesus H christ. Roleplaying. Wanna know how much roleplaying I saw in my hours? None. It's just an odd thing to bitch at me about, when it doesn't fucking matter.
You all will be happier without me. I'll be happier not playing. Tedious. Frustrating. Imbalanced. Poorly maintained. Your heroes are cheating immstaff, griefers, and stat padders. Also, Daevryn's ice devils @35 is a load of bullshit. Motherfucker was abusing mechanics none of us know about to accomplish that shit. I was dropping 1200 conjure devils from 35 on and first ice devil I saw was probably level 39.
