    Nation owning A beastman Stronghold

    I've not read anything about this anywhere and I figure it could be useful information if something comes of it.

    On the Odin server, :sandy: took over La Vaule. I just happened to check campaign map for the first time just now because I've been busy with other things. I saw Sandy was 7 areas. Took me a few moments to notice this.

    Has this happened on any other servers yet? If so what can we expect? I'll be spending an extra amount of time in campaign this week to get details if this is the first known case.

    I doubt SE expected this to happen so soon, so probably nothing cool happens but I can always hope!

    Re: Nation owning A beastman Stronghold

    La Vaule seems to be the easiest Beastmen stronghold to take over, because the normal mobs are not that close to the fortification there and allied NPCs seem to do quite good. But taking over Beadeaux or Oztroja seems to be nearly impossible. In Beadeaux the fellow NPCs almost never even manage to reach the fortification before the last of them is stomped. Related to the storyline that is reasonable though, since La Vaule is an Elvaan village and they want it back, but Beadeaux and Oztroja have been beastmen territory forever.

    Siren server is like this right now as well. I have not done any testing myself as of yet. The only thing I have noticed is that all the NPCs are just sitting around in sandy[S] now

    If you're at a high recon level, check the Orcs' status at a herald. If they have no territory, I don't think they can develop or even hold freelances.

    Sooo I'll assume the Kindred are the Orc's only hope to reclaim regions?

    If they really cant do anything now, then what would happen if/when all 3 strongholds are taken?

    The war is over.



    But in the year 2101, war was beginning.



    And you know what they say: war never changes.

    How do you take over La Vaule? I've been trying the last few days and theres always a toooon of mobs defending. Once in a while we get lucky and nobody is there and we can beat on the wall, but that is rare and they recover the fort damage quickly.

    Re: Nation owning A beastman Stronghold

    I have no idea how they took it but Odin is huge and there's upwards of over 100 ppl doing Campaign there during JP prime times.

    I noticed this with owning the area last week. Seemed like Sandy was full of move NPCs even the generic Royal Knights and the kind. Very very Laggy. The Orcs didnt seem to focus on most areas but made a full force effort to get La Vaule back. There were still campaigns but La Vaule was the place to be. Orcs just ran through everyone and dominated it and took it back with ease.

    That's all I was able to get. Seems like it's a tactical thing, take their strong hold and they won't pay attention to other areas as much. So you can take those back if you're having problems over the past few weeks.
