Besieged + Maintence = . . .

Well, They showed the maintence shit..

I look at the besieged map.. Mamool Ja at level 2..

Will remora join the ranks of lost candysenses?

[genome]

on Diabolos MamoolJa lvl 5 are advancing now, I hope they get to town and retire before maintenance starts we have 89 wins so far too...
only 300 ppl in area and they might not get in town before maintenance /panic

[Julian]

Go attack them while they're advancing..?

[layte]

Trolls at level 4 right now on Garuda.

Oh well, guess it will beat rescuing the tele taru or AH NPC's again. :D

[Genosync]

-.- stupid 3 yr old mobs making people fuck up new content, thx se

[genome]

Diabolos barely made it =) they just retreated like 30 sec before maintenance. It was actually really fun, everyone really trying their hardest, saying "2hr everyone please" etc, kinda fun and exciting, more than i've ever seen besieged be.. 90 wins now on diabolos and we still have our candythingy... close call though (I was whm healing and died on purpose each time my mp was out, then HPing back to alzabi for full hp.)
I also suicide-pulled a few new yellow mobs away from generals that way hehe. Good times. Good job everyone there (the few that didn't try to log on at NM spawns hehe) :D

[Tymon]

I guess quetzalcoatl was lucky, we had all 3 strongholds attack last afternoon and night.

[Queprur]

The Mamool was defeated a couple of minutes before maintenance. BUT...
The Undeads were @ 3...

[Vobent]

I think caitsith had loltrolls at 3

[Moosey]

Phoenix had trolls just about to hit lv1 about an hour and a half-two hourse before maintenance >< I hope we didn't get fucked...

That's a lot of prisoners. It's a shame they can't take PCs, there's a few people on Shiva that I'd like to see get locked up by beastmen.

[Not Kuno]

Do monsters stop attacking if someone else has Astral thingy?

Would be great if they raided each other.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

[ChooChooTrain]

Remora didn't lose it :Q

Mamool Ja Savages appear to be frozen at 108 atm.

[Wizerd]

Remora didn't lose it :Q

Phew, just got rid of the undead, that was close. I zoned in about 20min ago and there was 1 general left.

2 of them preparing for an attack later this evening but people will be on by then.

on Siren, all three beastmen types attacked back to back to back. The Mamool showed as advancing first, but the Undead arrived first.

It was packed. 2 prisoners taken in first swarm, but generals easily guarded and I got 700 IS and like 3 levels of Divine Skill. My xbox 360 froze up during the second swarm, and when I relogged, I got booted to whitegate, and kept getting warped back into whitegate if i tried to reneter for about 5 minutes. I finally got back in just at the end and only got 43 IS. Then the third wave started, less than a minute pause between cs of end and beginning of next. I was killing trolls and flan when i froze up again and just turned off the game for the night.

Did three in a row happen on other servers today?

Are other people getting system freezes like me in beseiged? others were shouting they did too in whitegate as i tried to get back in. It wasn't a typical reddot dc. Pretty disappointed in how lagtastic it is and how it just keeps randomly dumping you out until it randomly doesnt. I expected 2100 Imperial Standing points as I waited for it to start, but the freeze up + boot from zone effect made me miss out on the last two rounds points entirely. /sigh

I crashed 2 times tonight, in asura's triple-header. First time, only 500 ppl in zone so I was able to get back in and rack up 700 points (it's easy once you know how). Second time it was minutes before the end of the second raid, lost all my xp and IS. Tried to enter the zone and got in a few minutes after the 3rd raid started after several retries.

Suggestions to SE:
1) fix your crashing client.
2) if someone DCs, reserve their data and spot for 2-3 minutes so that they can (A) get back in the zone and (B) not lose all their points right away.
3) honestly, the game is unplayable with more than 500 in zone. do something about this, or adjust the player restrictions.
