Base Defence is easily killed in 12v12

only a few hours old, and kurzick is already winning every alliance battle in sight. Amongst the various new inclusions to the pug pvp scene in the factions preview is the ominous base defence skill used by base defenders.

Base defenders seem to be nigh invincible, but guild Mustache Riders (mR) has proven they are mortal by killing them and sitting in the opposing faction's res point. Post your experiences about 12v12 here. Screenshots may follow if there is interest.

I'm on Luxon and have won all of my battles. 3 wins 0 losses for me so far.

My only experience so far, is that everyone leaves. We were down to five people within 4 minutes...

I haven't got on GW yet since I'm at school atm but could someone please tell me what base defence is a little better?

Base defense is a skill used by the Base Defender NPC. -999 straight damage (or insta death).

Once people get the hang of things, 12v12 could become a fairly popular pastime. I'm 3-1, immediately jumping on my resolve trapper after observing the environment. The dynamic makes me smile, nice balance holding and movement.

Base Defenders can be killed with a coordinated nuker attack - I know not because I have seen them die, but because my team recently had a nuker that got off several spells without getting hit by base defence. That same match, I bypassed the defenders and got into the enemy base : )

Death's Charge immedeatly followed by Dash will get you into their base without getting hit, provided you dont get body blocked.

My experiance with the 12v12 - Luxons constantly loose, people from both sides constantly drop out, very little to no corrdinated team effort from eather side.

Hopefuly these will change soon
Exept the first

How do you play as Luxon and kurzick??

well later today all the makeshift spike teams will roll into battle to finally be dominated by the people who get some good skills unlocked.

IMO this should be a fun preview of PVP without the constant spike vs iway vs eoe bombers vs Mf vs etc.

all i see is 2 many quitters again its boring, its still funny when they leave and call people noobs , this is only 6hours into factions.

For us Kurzicks it is really fun, I've beat the crap out of the Luxons, alot. I think the 12vs12 has been really fun.

Just won my first 12vs12 match with the luxons! But i agreee with the leaver problem we were 10vs10 at the end . It was a very close victory with some thing like 492 vs 500

I just played a few rounds of this 12 vs 12 Alliance battle.
It strongly reminds me of Day of Defeat, I'm loving it!

But the quiters are annoying,
They should send in replacements for the quiters.

By the way, I saw Savio in there! He's in his red coloured 15k Glads Armor!

You still get faction points if you lose. Spread the word, maybe?

yay i see it already

"R6+ XXX LFG NO RAGE QUITTERS"

first of all, some of the better teams ive seen in HoH have been under rank3 beating the crap out of 6+. we know higher numbers in a game = UB3R G0DLY but please, give the new people some time to adjust into the game

then, why even say that? do ya think people will really think to themselves "damn, i better not join because if i die ill just leave because im better than all those noobs" ?

Even though i have not gotten on GW yet today, it sounds awesome, cant wait! So, 12v12 is like HoH a little?

Aaaaahhhh! I hate this, I'm stuck at work for another hour. Stop telling us poor buggers how good it is, it's driving me crazy.

lol i played it last night and boy was it fun! I too had problems with quiters when the score was getting to around 350...we lost 4 ppl in about 3 minutes...safe to say we got rushed afterwards and killed. But dang its fun!

I could as a noob-monk, keep the base defender easily alive really. What I dislike about 12v12 (or should I say 12vX (the losers left in my team)) is all the leavers. Really, I ended up with 1 other guy in there!

Endure Pain+Defy Pain FTW!!!

Or just echo diversion on him.

huh
