    Any other server having 2-6 hour Grauberg Campaigns?

    Seriously! Asura's had back to back campaigns that haven't stopped for long periods at a time, and it's not Belfry towers either.

    Yesterday there was an apparent 6hour campaign, I stayed for 2hours, people said they were there before that for 2h, and someone after me for 2h, the one before the one I'm doing lasted 3h, the one I'm currently doing is on hour two.

    Grauberg [S] on Asura is like Jugner on Crack.

    Quadav waves just keep on coming, then after they die, they just come right back in, mixed with Shadowhand on her rag using everyone as her scapegoat, and a whole ton of other crap. I'm hoping it's bugged and gonna be fixed too because the quads are hard too

    Grauberg is the new place to be it seems. Never had anything as bad as your experience but the number of waves has increased dramatically. Taurus nm and his gigas helpers are there quite frequently too. Gnats appear more often as well. Kurt got assraped by the taurus with its perma hundy and 2 gigas, i couldnt cure him fast enough :/

    I just did back to back Grauberg campaigns on Gilgamesh and it was damn fun. Then I went to rolanberry and got promptly ass rapped trying to keep striking bull alive. Grauberg is nuts if there's only a couple people on when it starts though.

    On Midgar, Jugner is mostly dead. One one-wave attack every hour or hour and a half. If there's a new place to be, I'll be happy! The last few days I've been spamming cmap and chasing battles around the world. That still sucks as much as it used to. (Nothing like spending AN to teleport out and have there be no battle music! Or go when you hear an announcement about NPCs going... then sit on your ass for 30 minutes waiting for them to arrive.)

    Will check out Grauberg tonight.

    A super easy way to tell when a battle is about to start is pay attention to the 'xxx beastmen have been dispatched to xxx' messages.

    It means they're going to shortly be at the fortifications, and the par-tay will begin.

    Not that much - about 2200, was on SCH and just meleeing a lot because there weren't many NPCs.

    The next day I went and got similar points in only 1.5hr and got 2750 because NPCs showed up and I kept spamming RR > Accession > Cure4 on NPCs > dying > repeat.

    East Ronfaure [S] has been under constant assault for over 7 hours now on Fairy with practically no NPC help. It's ridiculous, the mobs never stop attacking.

    Re: Any other server having 2-6 hour Grauberg Campaigns?

    On Midgard 2 days ago it was Fort Karugo. A friend kept shouting stuff like "noooo, save the worms" and other random shit, so at one point I was noticing a pattern and asked if he was just camping the Fort instead of moving around. To my surpise he was like "ITS STILL THE SAME CAMPAIGN!". Apparently, one of the Yag commanders managed to retreat and arrive 3 seperate times while the other yag/northland armies kept it going. He got almost 3k xp, but he was also dead for 20-30 minutes of it.

    Re: Any other server having 2-6 hour Grauberg Campaigns?

    I like Grauberg. I can leave my elemental on the fortification (I have spirit cost merits.. don't ask!), go hide in a corner somewhere, and just check back every 5 min to Elemental Siphon. I get full points, too.

    Well, I could do that. What I really do is melee random quadavs with people while my elemental does its thing, since it's boring just sitting around waiting to Elemental Siphon.

    Then, when I've had enough, I just turn my tag in and leave.

    Re: Any other server having 2-6 hour Grauberg Campaigns?

    I think it might be related to how high the Morale/Etc got last week. Remember the update yah? and we got our ass handed to us and lost almost every single zone except our Home nation/Gusta/ron/etc?

    the beastmens Morale/Tech/etc Raised ALOT, and thats why they're attacking more, is the high morale.
    I thought that was obvious D: They own almost every zone now, and that means theres less places to attack also, and they seem to be going all out.

    Also a fun story about yesterday:

    Was in Rolanberry fighting some Quadavs, and the NPCs were rushing the fort so i start helping them (along with everyone Else), well... about 5 minutes into fighting the NPCs warp and they apparently returned "Victorious" >_> Some people got raped, luckily i survived the 3 solo tanking by using PD. after about 1 minute the Quadavs Ran. so we attack the fort, and after about 10 minutes of for bashin the THF quadavs show up, again i got lucky and no aggro on me innitially (poor people behind me got raped) i managed to grab one and take it safely away...

    My brother who was a RNG58 at the time grabbed one too and i had to accomplice the idjit x.x; Eventually 3 Quadavs were on me again, this time i had no 2hour, but for some reason out of the horizon a flurry blue carbuncle came running up and Smacked a quadav... i was happy. Like a minute later carbs master showed up and helped killl one, they ran before we could kill all 3, only managed to take out 2, the 3rd was at like 40% when they warped.

    We then beat up the fort again for about 10 minutes, and campaign ended. I got 2800~ exp for it, was fun. <3 THF Campaigning, they cant hit me for anything.


    Also a side note, Doing Campaign ops "Iron Anvil III" Gets you 340 exp a pop and like 980 AN, and thats how i got SCH From 13-15 :D A Productive day indeed
