    I have been thinking what about coordinating a series of matches and encourage people to use tatics, see how they think and have different people use different things, see how they react to the change in each opponent, that way you can see how the other thinks, test your mettle, are you a chicken, do you brazenly charge forth, or can you subtly change your own tactics to emerge victiorous.

    I find the "tactical" range peeps display interesting. But be cautious using the word "chicken" as the one extreme to this range.

    Yes, some are unsure and, perhaps, even fearful. But there are many factors in-play. A new or inexperienced player at this stage of the game (especially) has every reason to be unsure even fearful. The quality of and emphasis on "invading" has seemingly become almost pathological in nature. The operative word here is "almost". silly

    Some "brazenly charge forth" with balls-to-the-wind merrily spamming r1/r2 etc. While others proceed less brazenly but with patience, wisdom and cunning. Both effective to a point.

    And both can effectively work together "if" they are team orientated. However, if the "brazen" tends to "grand-stand" the team fails. Just as...if the "patient one" can not change-up to brazen when a true need arises the team fails, again.

    Solo play tactics must inherently differ from team play tactics. But they are not opposed.

    How many times has someone been summoned to help...only to have the host run willy-nilly through npc's leaving the phantom to fight every single one because all were agro'd. That is a solo player mentality operating in a team situation. At best all that is left is a dysfunctional team. A similar scenario operates in a 2v2 situation were team work is essential.

    Haha! notice my emphasis on team work...though I solo play challenge builds a lot or use to. The Wasteland has dulled my Lordran skills immensely.

    That needs to change! Duels later guys, yes?

    BTW...promotions are coming now that the Guerrilla event is over for this month. Look for them on Monday! happy

    I merely meant do you run away from confrontation or do you face your enemy without fear. I run into so many people who just run away all the time.

    Yes, but why do they run? Can that not be a strategic move? Or are they truly scared.

    One basic tactic in conflict is to be the one who chooses the "battle field" or their place to die. Which ever applies. Haha!

    But, yeah....I got your meaning. I'm quilty of tangential thinking. happy

    BTW...Did you see my post in the event thread! silly

    I have today and tomorrow off!! YAY!!! silly 

    Leet...I hope you are not pulling 10-hour days, again. twistedevil 

    Tw...I am guessing you are getting your electives out of the way which is good. Then you might be able to dive right into the core of your major(s)! I miss college. I miss the intellectual stimulation and the debates we would have over Greek Coffee or Ouzo at the Nefertiti Diner. Oh! Yeah!!

    The Ouzo debates were always an exercise into the wild and the weird! twisted 


    Soris...I'm glad to see you posting. Know that you are missed!! biggrin

    Bummer! But more $$$$ for your "big boy toy". silly Duels later? Yesterday was a wash due to rl intrusion.
    I was thrown from a horse a couple days back. Banged up, sore and a few cuts...nothing unusual. Except my leg felt weird. So I finally went to the hospital. My right tibia has a hairline fracture. At least I didn't go down in cactus. THAT would have been pure torture! LOL

    Stop. Take a couple deep breaths. Positive thinking can affect the outcome of many things.

    We are here for you always!! So, let it out. It's ok. happy

    Do you cycle, jog, swim? Fire up your body, push it as far as you can...until your muscles begin to hurt then cool down. Intense physical activity can act as a "back-fire".

    The neurochemicals released are healing and will adjust your mindset.

    If ya wanna duel to get your mind off things enough to re-direct energy...I'm game!

    But physical activity works wonders...even a brisk walk!

    The Anger inside can Purify, leaving no malcontent, this Inferno inside me, straining to be released, shall sate the thirst of all who cross the path of injustice, let the beast of rage be contained, to be used for the good of all, instead of the single minded gains of a few.....

    Anger or any "destructive" emotion is not good for the soul.

    So stop talking about it.
    The less you talk of it, the less you will have

     Strapping his plates of armour upon his body, Ekh'Eshah prepared for another inquisitive venture to the Painted World. The potential knowledge would provide means to benefit the covenant and bolster his strength, granting one step closer to the salvation at the end of his road. He preferred to stay in places outside of Ariamis, as he deemed he did not deserve his place among the Exiled. However, one favoured the serenity of this hidden world, guarded by robed figures, than the misery of the outside lands.
     
     
     
     The dust and dirt trapped underneath Ekh'Eshah's boots grinded as he stood up, having equipped himself suitably for the long walk. This old shrine provided one of few means outside the Painted World to warm his decaying soul and much activity cultivated here under the blackened sky... Danger included.
     
     
     
     One would question why this warrior is so clad in arms and armour, but one hasn't experienced the perils dwelling in Lordran. Trusty scythe in hand with supplies strapped tight, Ekh'Eshah began his trek to the Painted World, having done this many times before. Fortune is far and wide to come by, but having been watching the timelines in Lordran split and meld for what seems like years, he may just get some relief. The air is thick with smoke as per usual, with the pungent and familiar odour of death staining Eshah's nostrils. The one sweet flower, blooming in the artificial sun, stood solitary and without a glow upon its petals.
     
     
     
     The crunch of the dirt with the clank of metal repeated itself in every step, until the wonderous stone steps before the chamber of the painting awaited his presence. Kneeling before the painting with his own curious doll in hand, The Watcher drew a sigil upon the stone floor and awaited the painting to draw him in. He did not care who would greet him on the other side, but he shall make a good impression regardless, with the new (or familiar face)... Might as well, since he had nothing left to lose.

    One cannot live without Anger, it is a part of emotions the same as happiness, therefore the only logical solution is to master it, as to not lose your temper, you will see as you grow older, that everything cannot be black and white, and that there is a place for everything in life, with age comes wisdom to be shared to the children of the next.

    Heed Kahldris' advice Demon. Know that the world is made of shades of grey with very few beacons of black and white. And when someone needs to talk you should not shut them down. You "missed" the positive in the above exchange.

    Promos will be up when I get them up. happy

    I am curious to know why you "seemingly" lurked the chat the entire event yet did not respond until everyone said good night. twisted
