How to Stay Safe in the Black Zone

[@pines3326]

Imagine gathering in a black zone with millions worth of materials in your inventory. You feel satisfied as you look at the numerous slots filled with pictures of extremely valuable rocks, plants, and metals is all you see. However, as the amount of estimated silver increases in your inventory, the overwhelming dread also adds to the weight you're carrying. You look at every possible direction any sort of hostile player coming your way. The tiniest hint of red in your screen is your indicator to run away from it as fast as possible. You know this. You've trained for this. You got this. That's when it came, a slightly transparent red username at the top right corner of you screen becoming more and more opaque. You immediately stop what you're doing and hopped on to your mount. You made sure your ride was fast but also strong enough to carry the items you've gathered. As you're about to bolt away, you see something every kind of player would be mortified to see when they're about to engage in a confrontation. A phrase that would make any man fall to despair as they can only accept the inevitable.... Connection Problem?

Being paranoid will help u survive in the black zone, scamper away with any hint of danger

[@normie9806]

I suggest going from avalon portals, they will send u different places, and it's just much safer. He already explained it in the video. Avalon roads are just much safer

[@SaltySalman]

true. but today idk how a 5 man gank group just dropped on me and destroyed me in bz . i was fishing in t7 zone . im 100% sure i didnt see a glimpse of them before they started attacking. usually its 1 guy scouting and calling friends

[@BlockwizardGaming]

Paranoia pays the bills

[@cqllel5186]

Paranoia? I call it, "being extra cautious"

[@jeankristein3238]

I am super paranoid Still get ganked and lost all money I stay in yellow for now

[@rp1readyplayerone32]

We need a new video of "How to Stay Safe in the Black Zone" for the lands awaken update

[@lawrencesolomon8325]

Thanks for doing this as I need a video to reference for Bz safety

[@alexg3348]

Some great advice that I can attest to. Good video McGee!

[@batboy555]

Just ran my first ones tonight. It was interesting. They never got me. Came in with 500 t5 ore which I needed badly.

[@glennraiders7220]

I understood today that a good Mount means much for surviving. Its better to buy a stag or t5 horse than me riding on T3 horse for to save money 🤣

[@shahidchaudhary52]

Armored horse is also better

[@dainsle]

@@shahidchaudhary52 depends, if you're a gatherer you'd want something with some carry weight to it. So generally people go for higher tier ormal horses for more health/stag/moose/boar.

[@EpicSam]

As a new player looking to try black zones thanks for this video very useful.

[@Straeger]

I got hunted down by a group of like 10 gankers today over 15 mins. I could have got away, I was literally outside the 3rd zone from where the chase started but for some retarded reason I decided to look at the map to see how to get back to the portal. Scout found me and they managed to chase me down and trap me. My 2nd death... the gear I had was only 4.2 solo dungeon gear but I just finished a dungeon and got decent loot. So many things I could have done like maybe hiding in a dungeon in the zone I was gunna go to and wait them out. I might just go in with nothing but a t4 horse to try and get more experience evading gankers and learn the area so I dont need to look at the minimap

[@Alikun11]

very helpful guide

[@udaychauhan512]

Your videos are good fellow surf mate

[@AA-hd4dy]

Btw caerleon has no portal

[@muhammedterzi5640]

I think it takes more time for gankers to dismount you if you have defensive stats on your mount. I prefer armored horse over normal horse.

[@hrabianero]

good luck with that :D You can mount a tank and you'll die if they just stop you, but armored horse has that benefit, your mount will not be killed imediately by mobs and fresh gankers

[@wayneogle1792]

Thanks for the tips. Combo for you.

[@CrikeyMate-89]

Little hard to inspect using mobile haha

[@jeffjeff2760]

how to stay safe in the ava roads next pls

[@okamichamploo]

I coulda sworn I saw a video where someone harpooned a guy right after he got the invis potion outiside the portal. If my memory is correct the guy turned invis, lost his bubble, and then was hooked by the spear's harpoon right before he was able to mount. Is this possible? or am I just imagining things?

[@BigLipsMcGee]

It was a bug but has been patched since then.

[@mantisguy746]

@@BigLipsMcGee lol, I died because of this bug

[@brizzy1237]

Good stuff

[@Kiomi248]

What’s a good black zone build?

[@potato3554]

I dont get a bubble near the portal i just die instantly to gankers

[@jeankristein3238]

Might go back gathering is bz when passive income at least 3x of my gear set

[@miniscoil417]

Your voice just made this tips and tricks more interesting.

[@senegoid7354]

Could you do a Beginner's guide to making a good build for actually surviving encounters with gankers?

[@sueycuomo8673]

I just started and have around 14hrs in the game and have been doing solo t6 dungeons and am now staring my first time dungeon. What mount should I use? I use a 80k gearset and want to use a 250k gears set but last time a used a 250k I died 😅....so what mount would be the best without breaking the bank?

[@enescakmak2615]

Thanks

[@salendrak]

Good info! Fingers crossed that the comment about escaping gankers being a whole another topic means that will be coming soon? 😁

[@klopperbaer]

Hey man, good video for beginners. I have one question how did you get the AoE Markers by your abilities?

[@harshpotato8462]

What stage in the game should I try to enter the black zones.

[@BigLipsMcGee]

After you have enough money to afford losing a set of gear - check out my beginner guide kzbin.info/aero/PL8mdibURLzfSQk31d7mr2pBP-ybUOEFMc

Thx

[@planetmini417]

Can I do okay in the Blackzone solo dungeons with T4 gear? Or gathering? T5gear is much more expensive.

[@ace_sweethell292]

I can clear tier 7 black in 4.1, i've a lot of spec, and a good build, BUT i think u can achieve tier 6 bz with any 4.1 gear as long as it make sense

[@ItsMe-zs3iy]

This, I got lucky and got a 726k chest in t6 bz solo dungeon. Had flat 4 gear

[@Rudeusshiro]

Any tips on how to lose a ganker following you and not get cornered by his mates? Usually that’s the only way I die in BZ. Unless I’m out for pvp stuff

[@anitogarciaiii1429]

dont be kited to where his mates are,

[@paradisestudios6986]

this is good stuff but i also get killed in black zone dungeons

[@5000Rox]

I sometimes agro the Morgana lady that summons bats. Those bats will randomly pick someone. And may just target the swiftclaw chasing me. Doesn't always work but I prefer that than being chased by gankers for half an hour XD

[@psypherveritas895]

So can you lose your mount in a black zone?

[@BigLipsMcGee]

yes, you lose everything if you die in blackzone

[@kr5335]

As a returning player, can you advise a spear/sword based build to focus speccing up and how to go about doing it moderately efficiently solo?

[@Delacr0ix]

GG

[@robertp2013]

what is the key combo to inspect other players?

[@wysiwyg9878]

Y

[@dainsle]

The default is Y, i also suggest you to activate the double click to attack option since if it's turned off you'll walk to the direction you're clicking since it triggers the attack command.

sharing resources makes it a lot less valuable in BZ unless u go to roads imo

@@stevendekok6435 always gather in roads, there are aspects everywhere... Bz is ok but also nerfed and most likely to get ganked
