Thread: You Know Ettenmoors PvMP is Bad When...

On Landy, there is a good portion of higher ranked creeps (and some freeps) leaving. I know that one group, mostly creeps, has formed with about 70-80 people (rank 7 and higher creeps), and also know of at least one freepside group has formed a guild. It will be interesting come late August thats for sure. Heck, it may even improve the gameplay, who knows.

Anyway.....

You know it's bad in the moors when you would rather heal the grd tanking Draggy's head.......

... You can't rank as fast as you think and you start to loose interest in PvMP as well as PvE aspect of the game in it's whole.

When Turbine would prefer to make apparel dummies rather than balance pvp.

You know Ettenmoors PvMP is bad when...You try to pounce and CJ your wife before taking her from behind

When 2 Wargs take out 3 Freeps (Hunter, Minstrel, and a Champion) grouped together.

The said freeps generally aren't see without a large group or raid, and will hug the rez/npcs untill the group/raid arrives.

Before anyone gets upset, no this isn't taking a dig at the developers or even lotro in general. Just a funny (And somewhat true) anecdote I thought of while smashing freeps in the arena.


If anyone else has some clever anecdotes please post them!

You know its a bad day in the Moors when....you finish the flying the flags quest and stock up for the tomorrow turn in as well

When freeps flip the map when all the creeps are logged out/asleep.
When 6+ freeps camp HH.
When burgs hold a "First one to a 2k Rating" contest. *Cough STARHUGGERS! Cough*
When non-burgs join the said contest as well.
When high ranks zerg low ranks that are fighting npcs .

when the freep "elite" kinship spend most of their time farming rezzes for low ranks.

When a high rank burg runs to the raid from a rank 6 weaver when caught in stealth
When a weaver is the only creep willing to push because low ranks are afraid to lose ratings
When freeps are camping grams and creeps are sparring just inside

When a small freep group of 3, zergs for you in HH, while you are trying to farm Hobbits and collect items and quests in HH.

When freeps run away when the mini finally dies.
When a mini and a guard's only interest is to duo-ninja keeps with no creeps in them.
When freeps track you down to an OP to prevent you from taking it.
When there are multiple threads talking about how bad PvMP is.
When you burn all your maps in a span of 10 minutes or less.

Yeah, it's like "Oh no, he is killing our Mayor, get him!" and I had to burn my cooldowns to escape the 3-man zerg. I mnaaged to escape to survive it with only like 30 or so morale left. lol

When you can't stop posting in the thread talking about how bad pvp is.
When burgs and hunters camp the "Poisoning the Hoardale" quest location in stealth.
When freeps would rather run to the one shotters than give up a kb to a creep. (Fools of Tooks! ).
When a 6+ freep group camps Gramsfoot.

When you are 1v1ing a freep near CM, and another warg snatches your KB away from you.

When you are cornered in OC for a zergfest lead by the freeps, who are mindless, left to do nothing but to PvE.

When you running from Lug Rez to Good TR and you happen to be manage to escape from being zerged at OC/WSTAB area.

when using a third party program to have six of yourself one shotting everything is ok in Turbines book.(forgot his name too)
when offender is rumored to do that only because he has died 6000 times and sucks at the game.
when whole creep side pop logs because of said offender.

When you are starting to loose interest in PvMP due to the continued grind for the next expac coming soon.

you know PvMP is bad when even the war-tyrant wants to kill you

When the side that has the better of the classes is usually caught farming freavers glitching stat's or exploiting .

You know lotro pvmp is bad and your a defiler when you beat 90% of freep's 1v1 and there excuse is you use flies then you beat them without flies and they say yourself heal's are op

you know its bad when the posts in this thread stop being funny.
you know its worse when you start posting bad reasons.(like these ones)

When you see "You feel as though you are being followed" and it turns out a Mini was the one tracking you.
When freeps complain about "op" creeps.
When freeps think creeps are on the same level as they are. (Seriously, what game are you guys playing?)

When you, as a rank 8 creep, get 3-shotted by a RK, then that same RK withstands the attacks of 10 creeps.
'Glass cannon'? Bullet-proof glass cannon, more like...

Don't forget that in addition to having the stealth detection, they probably all have SI too.

You logout because a group of RKs has facerolled the entire map yet again and you'd rather read this thread than play.
