July 7th Epic Siege

First thing to discuss is my change to elf. As you might have noticed, TheD is now an elf. I played elf for years on dep and many of my years here on Zero were on an infamous elf. I love elf and I am starting to get used to actually having to use hotkeys because lets be honest, knights are easy mode.. pot, swing, stun repeat. Lets see how elf is going. On to Last night...

Last night was maybe the funnest siege I have had in the last year on Zero. As is the case for most weekday sieges, we were outnumbered almost 2:1. We decided to try an out tactic I used to use on Dep when defending Giran. We created an elf line with mages to heal and melee to protect the elves.  Recently, elves got a boost, a much needed one. They then received two nerfs.. to balance things out. Now as you read this or as you talk to stripclub pledge, it might seem as though elves are OPed. But I assure you they are well balanced. On Dep 3-4 high level elves all single targeting with strong mage to destroy flopped all the big names - Zef, Kusang etc.. 1 elf by themselves is usually not a huge impact player. But 3 of them will hurt..

Let's see the damage:

First, our MVP

Yeo

This last one was the best. He died at the gate and got a res. Then with little hp Mad popped out of coi with many around and killed him. He lost exp lolol.

He died a 6th time but I guess I missed the SS. I thought I took but cant find his 6th death.  He also died 2 times a few hours before the siege, I was not there. That makes 8 deaths for a level 84 in about 6 hours. QQ

Also, this is what happens when a noob starts playing a high level character. The original user of Yeo has been very busy with work and let his friend play yeo. The friend is John123, a noob mage who was level 76. He clearly is a hero and bad at pvp. GJ John..zzzz MVP

Reanimated:

At this point the bodies were just dropping..

Bell:

Cooterluv:

If you go up and look at the 3rd SS of yeo dead, u will see these were back to back, like the whitebow/reanimated kills

Eune:

Lethe:

Destroyerz:

This kid talks soooo much. I was in town rebuffing and getting pots so I missed the SS.. Less talk more venz

Whitebow:

He flopped twice, he is up in the reanimated section.

These strategy worked very well. I hope the fact that we got 15 kills doesn't make people think elf needs nerf. Same would be true if you put 3-4 strong mages all targeting same person. This was just a good tactic. Eventually Stripclub got well organized and forced its way into tower. They did take tower and I congratulate them, it was a tough good siege. I also want to thank them publicly for fighting us and helping to keep server fun. When start quit the server it could have been really bad for the server. But Richard and others did a good thing to make a new pledge, so honestly no hard feelings -- I appreciate what you have done for the server. Without it, the server would be in some trouble. However, you can still expect to see your body here weekly if you die ;)

O and if you havent been on zero in a while and think that maybe you want to come back but are afraid how active it is? This was the scene as people waited for BZ:

It was about 18 v 18. So much fun.. What are you waiting for? Come join us
