Bazooko's Circus Redux: The Long, Slow Summer

[schild]

With 1.5 hitting, we're gonna start up Bat Country again, but this time on Agony (open PvP).

Schild - Cthylla - Priest of Mitra
Schild - Nyarlathotep - Assassin (l.50)
Morfiend - Morfiend - Tempest of Set
Morfiend - Morv -  Herald of Xotli
MrHat - Cerrano - Necromancer
Threash - Threash - Assassin (l.50)

[Redgiant]

I only played a day or two from release. I could see trying it again since AoC, unlike WAR, sounds like they might "get it".

What class(es) are most needed, based on the assumption of grouping for leveling and open PvP everywhere?

[Morfiend]

Add:

Devnan - Barbarian
Nefar - Necro (on trial)
Kelderick - Songoro - Necromancer

Those are friends of mine.

[Morfiend]

And:

Mirik - Guardian

When he finally gets the client downloaded.

Casual game. Not making people play classes. Play whatever you want.

Well, im leaning to playing my HoX more, so we could use more healerish types. We can always use more healerish types.

[Lum]

I started a necro, but I think I might go with a HoX too. Because setting things on fire never gets old, ever.

Cavort - necromancer FOTM
Luminary - HoX burnination

[Kirth]

Korth - Conq 

[ShenMolo]

Shenmolo - Gaeda - Ranger

[gimpyone]

Cadwin PoM

[Hindenburg]

Caligula - Demonologist.

[squirrel]

Fucking Motherboard died. But I'll be making a Demo after I pick up some replacement parts tomorrow.

(Not that sad, it was an old machine - now I get a new CPU too! Whee!)

[Quinton]

What does "open PVP" entail?  Any safe spots at all to sort out how to play and the early levels, or crushing death from the moment you create your character?  (meaning: is it advisable to start playing on a different server until I know what the hell I'm doing?)

Nah lots of safe spots early on. Honestly, a lot of this game is about PVP and we found that playing on a PVE server was just sort of missing the point. Also, we had a good time PVPing late night tonight on White Sands. Got about 35 kills and 15 deaths.

[kallidain]

Long time lurker here...thought I would give AoC a second try.

Kallidain - Bear Shaman
Larocqe - Conqueror

[Morfiend]

If any of you guys need a guild invite, send me a tell in game.

Morv or Morfiend.

[Draegan]

Someone make a necro because I fucking hate them and I want to annoy other people with friends.

[gimpyone]

There's 3 in the guild.   

[schild]

When I invite you all, don't reject the invite. >_<

[Quinton]

Quinton - Quintohn - Ranger

[Falwell]

I may give this another shot, but it'll be pretty damn casual. The guys are getting back into WAR with the new 1.3 LotD update, we just set up a new shop in EQ2, and we still have the WoW branch going along with our 11 year anniversary RL meeting coming up. Needless to say my plate is pretty fucking full atm. If and when I get in, I'll give you cats a yell.

[schild]

I guess there's just no accounting for taste!

No, bad taste is the multiple WAR one liner snark threads that lost any sense of class pages ago.

[Velorath]

Kelthos - Necromancer

Have a lv. 50 available also but not sure what class I'm going to go with for that.

[squirrel]

Lanyard - Demonologist

[Vash]

I think I'm one of the idiots who rejected an invite  , but in my defense I was in the middle of dying and Bazooko's Circus surprised me since I was expecting Bat Country  .

So far I have:

19 ToS named Exequias

15 Necro named Rukia

Additionally, I have no idea what class I'm planning on playing past the trial, trying to give as many a shot as I can.

Edit:  Just made a Conq named Vindol, can anyone with Soldier classes experience break down the difference between a 2h using Conq and a Polearm using Guardian?

[CaptainNapkin]

Felony - Assassin

Will probably try another class or two as well.

[Vash]

I'm trying out a PoM now, name is Saverem, still on my trial though so I can only send tells to subscribers if they friend me or are in visual LoS.  I understand this is to prevent gold seller spam but it makes getting an invite tricky.   

[schild]

Oh, you're Saverem. Try sending a tell.

Also, don't be so paranoid. There aren't gold sellers in conan.

[schild]

Guild City:

Poitain, Instant 5.

Shockingly, somehow, we had 20 people. Go team!

OK, before I get guff, I picked Poitain because it gets fucking sunlight. The other 2 places are just mostly depressing.

Casual game. Not making people play classes. Play whatever you want.

For those who derive a strange enjoyment out of taking one for the team though, a few of us realized earlier during a trip through Black Castle where we were relying on a somewhat incompetent tank, that we don't really have a lot of tanks in the guild.  In fact we completely lack any Guardians.  Some more Rangers would also be a nice addition also.  Might roll up a Guardian as my lv. 50, and I'm hoping transfers open up soon and that I'll be able to transfer my 55 Ranger.  But if those classes sound like they might be fun to play for anyone who is still thinking about coming back to AoC...

[Vash]

Still not 100% decided on what class I'm gonna play past Tortage, but Guardian was one of my contenders.  However, my plan was to spec my guardian for polearms not sword and board.  Don't we have a few DT's or are they really not as viable for tanking as Guardians?

[Cyrrex]

Add me to the list:

Rute - Ranger

She's a level six Aquilonian beauty with green eyes and a surprisingly firm set of bosoms.  She'll break your heart, and then put an arrow through it.

RP'er 

[Cyrrex]

Not so much.  Some times I think it would be fun to actually RP for real.  If you see me typing in an accent, you'll know that I'm trying to be in character.
