8:15 chat "this is not pvp...combat sucks"....wtf? xD

[@Lupain]

what you do use, heavy or medium armor for this battle mage , looks very nice

[@whyareyoubothering]

The one issue i have with pvp as of now is that it's lack of establishment doesn't allow the tactics that an entire guild could pull off in future combat and these videos show the lack of communication that the defending keeps have in beta. But i feel that once major guilds take control of keeps as assigned by i guess the emperor we'll see more tactics than "siege up the walls and throw some oil."

[@GamesJoblin]

Nice. Just few concerns - it felt bit too zergy for my taste. It seems to me like prolly dozen or more people could be on /follow or AFK and the keep would eventually go down anyway. Also I am afraid that melee might not be that useful in sieges, and this certainly didn´t help with my lil fear.

[@SabbothArt]

Well once a wall goes down, it's all melee from then on. There's not much to keep the entire group occupied when taking the outer wall. Once you're inside and working the second wall, melee combat really shines and those people that would /follow or AFK are going to need to be there or the siege is going to fail. In this particular video, it seems that this keep just wasn't being defended at all, it looked like they were only fighting the defending NPCs and maybe 5 real players vs their 50+ team. If you watch Angry Joe's pvp impressions, you can see a really good counterattack from what looked like a successful siege.

Melee will be useful but only once you are inside the walls, i suspect most melee will have a ranged weapon for their weapon swap when it comes to ava Zerg doesn't rule the day in this game at all, there are plenty of things smaller groups can do while avoiding zergs and even against them if you know what you are doing

CopyCatastrophe chales duncan ***** Ty for answers, I was just concerned about few things - sorry if it sounded differently. On ´politely fighting 1v1´ OFC not, I was thinking about melee role/usefulness groupwise, especially during sieges/massive fights. In lots of AvAvA vids I saw so far 1) people are playing range/healers more (I dare say much more) often, 2)melee is often on some kind of ´follow the zerg´ mode, sometimes taking part in 3v1s and such, 3) once inside, there doesn´t seem to be much attacking to do (unless you count in that moment when Angry Joe got squashed like a bug ;) - I often have the feeling that ´defenders´ are demoralised/outnumbered or just jumping out tru backdoor/windows and running away....and connected to that 4) almost every keep siege vid I saw ended with success!? What is happening to defence? looks like it´s much ´wiser´ (statistically that is) to jump outta keep/runaway and go attack something instead!? Speaking of melee- and not only DPS - I would like to see some kind of PvP tanking implemented (if it´s not already ingame?) Say, WoW protection Warriors, or even better - Warhammer Ironbreakers, these were often key factor in RvR. I would prefer something like that to simply swapping to range weapon (or, at least, I would like to have such option).

[@FodTyranno88]

blavisha you cant tank in pvp, if you really want to support your group and make a difference you have to be a healer, otherwise u can go leeroy jenkins style and try to get a few kills before the inevitable

[@DuBstompper08]

i just want the beta to be back on :,(
