Surviving the Black Zone: A Guide to Roaming in Albion Online - Gear, Safety & Navigation - Part 1

[@andrasprohaszka3512]

Let's talk about the chest bombing before anybody gets too happy upon a seemingly uncontested open world chest. So, you are the only one at the chest and can hardly contain your grin... when suddenly a group of gankers are flashing through your screen with every speed and damage buffs imaginable. You are dead before even clicking on your mount. They were just lurking at a convinient distance then rush in.

[@ProfessorScythe]

This is correct! I will be discussing ganking tactics in future videos as there will be ALOT to talk about for this video series and I want to try to get in as much information as possible! I hope you enjoyed the video!😁

[@gih3297]

So?

[@matteoblasoni8726]

I'm looking at this video just after having experienced something similar. We were in 3 actually, I wasn't looking for fights so I was willing to go away and leave them the chest when one of them invited me into its group. I was thinking "oh ok, maybe he wants to team up to kill the third player and divide the loot" but as soon as the timer ends, he starts opening the chest and so do I. While I was taking my part of the loot he ends the party and kills me :( Is that a common trap they use to do? (Yes, I'm a beginner 😂)

@@matteoblasoni8726 Albion is a dog eats dog world. Trust no one in the full-loot lethal zones.

I like how theres 2 volunteers helping you to demonstrate navigating ganks just as you were recording 😂😂

[@Matshiro]

You are really doing best guides. Also great editing, everything is nice and clean :D

[@ProfessorScythe]

I appreciate the kind words! More to come!😁

[@RydonKG]

Most definitely! Love this content helping me grow as a player 😎

[@AngeloTatsk]

I'm not afraid of losing my gear it's just feels unfair when brought an expensive gear when in fights my mobile freezes and the enter net connection

[@cr1tikal899]

Don't do bz because you'll die no matter what,its the harsh reality that nobody wants to talk about,this is why people stop playing this shit XD

[@yourvenparianen5390]

Your guides are so much better than any other content creator out there especially incentivizing new players to venture out in the black zones and not making it this scary thing it is *cough* casualbenji *cough* 😂

[@ProfessorScythe]

I appreciate the kind words and I am glad you are enjoying the videos!😁

[@silverslasher7477]

Lol he traveled 4 zones and got lucky with a chest ain't replicating that every day

[@adenhur5148]

Great video! I love that u share ur thought process in a way that helps not only to learn the common methods but to also know how and why, so that if u need to improvise u can apply the same logic and get good results, obvi it's always tricky in a multiplayer game to ever predict everything the players will do, as people keep adapting to each other and coming up with new strategies, but to know the right thought process helps a lot! Tyvm

[@ProfessorScythe]

The thought process as well as developing the situation is one of the most important concepts in this game! I appreciate the kind words!😁

[@Yareakh]

I'm so glad your doing this started a guild and I'm scared to take them out in the black zones I personally am used to black zones but not with a group so I can't wait for you to cover that topic ty for the video :)

[@ProfessorScythe]

I am glad you are excited for the series! More to come! Stay awesome!😎

[@ZeroSleap]

Unfortunately for me today i found a Rare solo dungeon on BZ and someone entered it, i well decided to exit and outside there were loke 5-6 people... My bad for going in a zone next to the portal...and not checking if people were around. Rip

[@ProfessorScythe]

Dungeon dives always be looking to gank for sure!🙃

[@GlermG]

Este foi o melhor guia que já vi! Realmente é um professor...

[@ProfessorScythe]

Obrigada amigo! - Translator 😂

[@Lost-Faith-In-USA]

A PvP game...where I did not experience PvP. 100% PPPPPvP type of gamers usually. :) Target the weak..with Gank group. No skill needed...and ruin a fellow gamers night. Sad to see PvP die in games

[@bristleback1759]

I gotta question, I mean in bz guild members says no costly gear only tier 4,5 gear with enchanted weapon but then there comes player with tier 7,8 gears and kills me . Is it possible to kill high gear player with tier 4,5 gear (solo 1v1) ? And how (because the damage given by tier 4,5) are so less!?

[@christiankinglubaton-jb9ob]

Mr Scythe how to be strongest person in albion and how to handle many people who kill you while farming thank you I played Albion but many people hunt me and took my loot while I’m farming wood and stone

[@thegamer8412]

[@christiankinglubaton-jb9ob]

Mr Scythe can I add u in albion online no one like me when I playing and they said to my your just a Weaker noob they said that to me and they said I have T3 only I’m just getting to know the game and how to be a solo gamer

[@Failfer]

I just clicked on the vid but Im looking forward to the series

[@ProfessorScythe]

It will be an interesting one for sure!😎

How do I unlock poison abillity of the mage cowl?

[@ProfessorScythe]

T4+ mage cowls have it, but it got reworked recently!🥶

[@Gojo_satoru2004]

may i ask if my weapons or any items inside my treasure bank will get vanished after dying in the red/black zone or after going inside red/black zone?

[@dogutun]

i subbed for this series

[@ProfessorScythe]

I appreciate you!😁

[@PaulSullivan-u4u]

My record speaks for itself I have never ganked I have exactly what I need neatly sealed away on my island in storage that stuff oh noo I only use in big fights

[@UltraDumbass]

Bz really isnt that dangerous. U make it seem like hell when its like catching butterflys, also dont go on his tracks he will defo gank u

[@ProfessorScythe]

It isn’t dangerous when you are use to being out there, I am making guides that show people my mindset I took starting out and up to now through all the roaming I do. I have multiple people asking me to make this type of series! If you don’t feel any fear when roaming the BZ then what this series is achieving for players has already been obtained by you! Which is awesome!😎 I hope you enjoyed the video! Stay awesome!😁

[@UltraDumbass]

Ah i guess that makes sense 😀

[@dimaknopf]

I find it amusing that the only players that really care about pvp fame are the gankers. And every one of their kills are in a party of 4 or more fighting a defenseless gatherer or someone at a disadvantage. That's nothing to be proud of.

[@kennethreyes7545]

not to mention that the kill fame is divided equal for each pt

[@ProfessorScythe]

Yeah ganking is an no honor activity for sure, but will always have a place in full loot PvP games! We just have to do our best to avoid them!😎

[@Larimuss]

Risking 340k yeh you might as well out in some buy orders for a good escpae cape or dmg caps

But still a little bit in fog

[@ProfessorScythe]

They are an ability that is “toggle” which means “Can be turned on and turned off” Abilities with a “toggle” nature CAN NOT be purged because they don’t act like an activated buff that once pressed is used up to the end!

Very good and informative. What weapon would you recommend a new player focus on/max first? Likely a very versatile weapon that would allow a new player to test the different elements of the game with decent efficiency. Cheers!

@@danieldelgado6861 it’s worth the grind. Battleaxe is SO GOOD for open world.

[@Lunaaatical]

Normally, after leaving the portal, i quickly rush into the Road of Avalon portal. Because once you in Road of Avalon there will be other portal that can drop you into random zone in outlands, so instead travelling all the way 3 zones, maybe road of ava is better.

[@Jacobs7382]

Hi i wanted to ask, i have a month of game so i still have lot to learn. I sometimes go with my guild roaming looking for bosses/resources and maybe kills. But i feel like when we do look for a fight we don’t have a proper “engage”. I feel like we need to fix our communication of meeting people with a ping. Is it fine is mf for example someone stays behind so he has time to dismount?
