    Re: PvP

    Expect to be zerged alot, don't expect fight clubs or cm to last forever (though they're not uncommon), there's plenty of people who never solo so there's often a few easier kills mixed in with a few soloers (not all that many pure solos, some who do a bit of everything) who can be challenging fights. All in all I enjoy it, but I've only played on this server and don't have anything to compare it to.

    Edit: also there's tons of call outs, one of the things that really sucks recently... Happens ALL the time now, but they don't really affect the overall pvp since they tend to only take a few seconds to be over

    Re: PvP

    Thanks all for your answers. Appreciated.
    I don't mind the eventual zerg, there's only one thing that has ticked me off across all servers I've played a freep on, and that's Warg packs. lol

    Would like some more answers, preferably from dedicated solo freeps before I make up my mind whether to come here or not.

    Edit: And in response to the warg pack thing... It's currently a big issue over on E also The only good thing about it is when I play my creeps and see how much they talk themselves up in OOC when in actuality they couldn't solo a microwave dinner.

    Comprehension... Was referring to particular wargs. Didn't name any names because none of them are worth the attention.

    Re: PvP

    Solo'ing is fine, you just need to learn who calls out, who small groups, who solos, who raids, etc. Over the past five years I have a fairly decent idea who will 1v1 me without friends, and who I need to run from. Also depends on the person, I won't call most folks out, but there are a few people who get a call out because I have little/no respect for them, and/or they leave their raids to die (first guy to speedy boots out, you're getting a zerg).

    Yep. I have a little raidbaby r6 Spider over here that got its rank strictly from Vyxe's and Raximus' raids. I'll hop on it and I can leech onto you. xD
    Playing on particularly zergy servers I've developed a strong resistance to most things. Excluding warg packs.

    I don't like spiders, they creep me out, so you can't hand in my pocket, you're welcome to be all creepy crawly in my group though. I'll resist the urge to smack you with a newspaper.

    Unfortunately m'lord, that is a very accurate statement.

    M'Lord are you implying you need a legion of wargs to take down Rubicon? I must have read it wrong since your lordship is undefeated in Flayer. Excuse my transgression.

    Fewer wargs here than brandy, be more wary of callouts and map points.
