    I love grping with puppies. Its always halarious! Pssh, im not the best : p. People only think im decent because im the only high ranking defiler that still (sometimes) plays, and (imo the main reason) because they dont have much to compare me to . Now that puffin is back he is The Snazziest defiler out there, and ive got my eye on BigK as well.

    Re: Why is it there are sooo many people who only solo?

    So, I'm bored, sorry for re-invading Windy's forums ./hieveryone

    1. Soloing can mean two things, solozerging (self-explanatory), or roaming the map looking for fights, occasionally finding other freeps as well. I personally believe solozerging isn't soloing but that's just my *elitist* view point.

    2.
    Captains are fine just now, you can kill everything bar CP spider/flayer wargs in 1v1s and can burst massive damage in 2,3,4v1's to get kills as well (and Votan is massively undergearred so there is that too).

    3. Creeps are a lot stronger now than people give them credit for in small group action, RvR freeps will dominate but small groups not so much.

    4. You guys are all clearly nubs <3

    Did you notice how people are starting to refer to it as doing an Arathain whenever someone comes trolling back to a server where people didn't care in the first place? The vast majority playing here have just forgotten you or never connected to you in the first place...

    And yet you say its called "doing an Arathain" so people must remember him in some way, just saying.

    Is it a requisite to spend 20 bucks on a server transfer not only to be playing a creep on Windfola on "prime times" (ie at night, when one could imagine a large pop server is crowded with both freeps and creeps) but to also spend all my time posting on the Windfola forums? Or can i be smart?

    Cheers, good luck with recruitment and lf to join!

    Re: Why is it there are sooo many people who only solo?

    to the original post,

    Grouping on creep side sucks these days since getting rank equals gathering sticks and troll stones instead of killing freeps... the older creeps, me being one, got rank only by killing opponents so we really didn't care about dying as long as we got a kill or some infamy. We simply had no other way to rank so we were more aggressive, more risky, more strategic, more ready to "close the deal"

    The newer creeps run away and hide and are scared of dying. They don't think or use any strategy. They don't listen either. I can't tell you how many times the OOC will say " let's do an op - o for op" when there are freeps that need killing. In their minds they can get 100 infamy with a quest easier than confronting their enemy.

    For the record I love grouping and raiding and have fought many times in small groups with good/bad players and large raids with good/bad players but trying to lead a group these days just sucks. When players run from a hunter with 200 health left because they might die from the near by RK it says a lot about the current condition of PvMP

    2.[/B] Captains are fine just now, you can kill everything bar CP spider/flayer wargs in 1v1s and can burst massive damage in 2,3,4v1's to get kills as well (and Votan is massively undergearred so there is that too).

    The above statement is true IF the creeps dont run...which on Windy MANY of them do...they slow and then take off, I would say a high ranking reaver is still a challenge, especially if they are all potted out, and I happen to forget to buy pots..(/Facepalm) Shadow wargs who know how to play are fun to fight with and can be challenging if they kite, get out of combat and go stealth...archer/herald is good for this (the ability to SB or BB is a plus too for the self inspire, increase attack speed and herald heals dont hurt.) If the creep will stay and fight and not run into NPCs or rez circles, most fights are in the cappies favor, especially in a 1v1 except for those stated above.... Now if you get a weaver and a high ranked shadow warg.... its gonna suck unless you brand. I dont have a brand and dont use store bought ####, I dont think freeps really need it, if I wanted to know I was going to win all the 1v1s and 1v2+, I might as well just go to bree and 1 shot all the npcs in the area in front of a bunch of low level players to seem Godlike... no thanks not interested.

    In regards to my original post and purpose of the thread. The main reason I ask why people dont solo is because back in the day almost everyone grouped or joined a raid. I liked it because captain's really shine in a group. You get a cappy with an RK grouped together in a duo magical things can happen, I have seen a cappy and an OP RK with DP perks, food, buffs, and cappy traited for heals, completely and utterly destroy a group of 6 mid level creeps R7+ repeatedly. Granted there were not any wargs in the group, im sure it would have been quite different had there been, but still... Makes any creep want to PVE instead of continuing to throw themselves in the meat grinder.

    Your counterpoints are becoming increasingly full of hate. I believe I am doing my job correctly. Also, Willo wants to spar you. He says you can double pledge.

    Why would a creep want to fight you if it's in your favor?? Why woudn't they want to slow you and run?? Do you expect them to stand still while you melee them??

    man heal, last stand, etc etc etc


    You have just confirmed how completely broken PvMP is on Lotro.

    You sound like a defiler except the Freepzies jump us and (fairly often) then CC/CD + run away if the fight bends out of their favour.

    These days any decently geared captain (that has a bit of a distance to fight with) will burn a defiler down.

    That is, unless the defiler is ranked...and has audacity....which of the defilers on windfola....2 come to mind....neither of which play often. =(
