Probs my favourite tab target game.

I played Excal in beta & release (when living in Scotland)

rr1 sorc (northern lights)
rr10 minstrel (eastern beats)
rr3 friar (southern comfort)
rr3 paladin (western front)

Ahhhhhhh the old days =)

I quit shortly after TOA release.

By the way, when I say RvR-focused, I mean that every aspect of this game will be designed from the perspective of how it impacts RvR.

Yes...

I'd like it to be very clear that we are not making a sequel.

I'm listening...

The biggest difference is that RvR isn't the endgame -- it's the only game.

Where can I get some DAoC kool-aid? That game was one of the most laggy, imbalanced games I've ever played..

One healer could insta-mez/stun upwards of 15 people. I could CC two full groups of enemy, and keep them CC'd, for several minutes while we killed them one by one. Awesome game mechanic. Even when they added diminishing timers, it still fucking sucked.

Hunter class... could hit squishes for 25%-40% of their life, at ranged, while in stealth. GG.

Spirit masters... two or three of these guys at a choke point could AoE down a 30 man army. You thought GW2 was bad with thieves abusing stealth to prevent caps was bad?

And jesus, the lag. You would simply freeze for 30+ seconds at time, and 3/4 of your army would be dead. Haha. I still remember freeze framing in some of the first big sieges on the server and finally loading with just piles of bodies around me.

I had fun playing the game when it was out, but when people hold it out as a shining example of PvP, I think they're looking backwards with rose colored glasses.

I played a midgardian pac healer. I couldn't kill a naked level 1 character at level 50 fully geared but by god I could keep the beastest mofo in the game standing in place long enough to die by my team.
