Exactly why Draco is on forums right now. That's pretty much what it was last night for Heretic. They jump off castle and get one ~ two shotted. But we couldn't take their gates down. Siege was over in 5 minutes yet we were forced to stay in SW for another 55 minutes doing nothing. Wasted time for both sides. That's just stupid. There's almost no point in attacking the gate by yourself because it does almost no damage and the healers can match your damage. There's no point in bringing siege engines because they get one ~ two shotted by undergeared players. And to make it worse, the opposing guild set up Flames and Electrics very well inside their castle so that if you tried to use Tornado or Scrolls, you would get interrupted and can't cast them. Mage's Thunderstorm are unable to take out their defenses and you can't shoot through walls. Kudos to them for setting it up right, although they made it a waste of an hour.

One rogue soloing a gate is wrong. A guild that heavily outgears the other guild not being able to enter the opposing guild's castle is also wrong.

Couldnt have said it better, they fail to understand

Nope, Draco wants to be able to solo bleed a gate in under 2mins while hidden. That was and still is a bad system

No i want bleeds to be nerfed, not taken out completely..thats just lazy, which coming from rom im not surprised they are lazy

You definitely said "Bring back the old gates, bring back the old way."

yea i said that once cuz i was pissed but ive said it over 10 times i want them to nerf it not just take it out completely. my argument is to fix this cuz this is stupid right now

Wait, the now top guild on Reni can't figure out how to take down a gate? Seriously? You all are doing something very wrong. Sorry Draco but I have sieged against top guilds since they changed the bleeds on gates and we had NO problem taking out gates. If you can't figure out how to take down a gate as a guild then um idk what to say. Its been posted in this thread and is correct and works great even when a gate is being healed.

Maybe you all can ask Raves for some help

1) my argument here is taking both gates, The first one isnt that hard, while u take down one, the scrolls/tornado is on cooldown
2) (half the time) you cant use tornado because of a million electric towers, which i give props to the other guild
3) Siege wars should not be based on whoever can collect scrolls fastest or whoever has the most scrolls.
4) It takes merits to buy scrolls, which isnt much its only 300 but the fact that people crash...you lose them
5) I personally dont crash but as we all know 99% of rom crashes every 10 minutes.
6) And when you do have a scroll, by the time you are about to use it on the second gate, your most likely to crash inside their castle and lose it, once again i personally dont but as we know most do.
7) Would you please please care to explain rogue how taking down gates with the scroll is the only way, is a right way to do it?
What is the point of having better gear then the opponent or what is the point of having your skills maxed, or your gear and weapons if you cant use it on gates?

Please explain to me how this is right. I would love to have an explanation to this.

i personally love the new no-dots on gates. Yes it made most of my toons useless for gates unless i have a scroll but it makes it 100x more fun and challenging. Stop QQing about this and learn to play new ways. What they do need to fix however is the totally worthless siege engines. They were designed for the purpose of taking out the gates, yet any 55 with half decent dps can take them down with little effort. I know there are buffs to reduce player damage but it maxes at 50% and when they're being hit for close to 200k sometimes that's still a 100k hit and look how many merits you wasted getting that silly buff too. Nah keep the gates like this, in fact can even make em tougher if you want idc lol. But fix those broken worthless siege engines. Oh to add from what was said earlier, yeah they need to still allow the bleed to be 'put on" the gates for follow up skills, but the gates be immune to the dot effect. Seems kinda crappy to block out several skills just for the sake of stopping dots, shouldn't be a hard fix to implement.

So your saying your completely cool with the fact that the only way to take down a gate is with scrolls? Learn to play new ways? why should i when the new way is fail. Seems like the only reason you like this patch is cuz ur gates were getting powned before this patch, lawl.
