Old names/faces
|
Last night I was sitting around reminiscing about DAoC with a couple people (Kurvaj, Darina/Margots/Amnezia and Stompem) and Kurv wanted to look up a few names, not able to remember everyone since it's been so long and he found the Best of Class thread
Funny the names that are on there, and how memories come flooding back, especially the old frontiers and the milegate standoffs. Anyone remember the Alb Relic Raid in Midgard where a group of Hibs caught them at the milegate and killed 90% of the raid, causing the zone to crash from the volume of deathspam? Or the time that Groundkeeper took 5 minutes to kill me with his newly crafted ultra slow polearm (gogo bladeturn)?
What was the name of that Mentalist in Divine Vengeance that had that NASTY DoT? It used to wipe out swaths of Mids when we were trying to defend the relics.

Wasn't it Tangerauy?
I can't believe I didn't even make a single post in that thread, so much Kali bashing I thought for sure I would have jumped all over it.
Although I can understand not getting any play, I sucked on eld pretty badly until moving to Lamorak and hooking up with some Germans.

Those were great days when the AE DOT was king. It felt good to kill Cylanth and Garek over and over at Alb milegate with my dot. I would pay good money to go back to that time.

That's right. Egads, that guy used to rip me to shreds. I'd rather be nuked, bolted, slammed, hacked, anything but DoT'd. It always just seemed so much worse when that happened. Just watching, helplessly as your health drained away and your character lurching in pain every second or two before your inevitable doom. That was one of the reasons I shelved my Troll Berserker (for a while), I couldn't stand the sound of the troll yelping in pain from DoTs.
@Meddyck, lol, don't I know it. Last time I let my hair grow out and shaved it back off (balding isn't beautiful, but BALD is) it had a bunch of gray in there.

Well, at least 4 people back then had some sense!! 
I was a weird kid back then, researched the hell out of infi's and no buffs from bots outta pride.
(and I still made that list... I'm glad I don't have as much free time as I did back then! I think I used to play 8-10+ hours a day. yeesh.)

I think a great many of us spent an unhealthy amount of time in that game... and others that preceded or followed.
It's a deliberate act on my part to only play for a short while each time/day I do play. Get more chores done, time spent with family, read more books, hang with more friends (ok, more often).
When Margots was in Texas and I was in Arizona I spent more time online ingame that I did at work with 15 to 17 hour stints on Saturdays and Sundays. It wasn't healthy. I don't regret being a Team Lead, the friends I made during that time, but I certainly could have scaled it back to something sane.

I seriously had some downs back then. That being said I was still in high school. It's amazing how long ago that really was. Still one of the best games/communities ever. It's always great when I see someone in WoW that played Daoc. Sadly I haven't ran into many from Gawaine.
I did think that short stint Warhammer was pretty cool. It was like a daoc reunion. I just couldn't take playing that game. I had so many expectations of it being daoc ver 2 that I really let myself down playing it.
I got curious and did an ol' google search on Divine Vengeance guild and got a hit on some screen shots. http://www.vastydeep.com/ Lots of old hib names there.

That's sad I never made a list, but I think by '02 I was long gone. I did get to 2nd on the Gawaine zerker list for a bit at some point, but dropped quick once they nerfed and I stopped playing Uruz in favor of my battlegrounds hunters.
PS
"Anyone remember the Alb Relic Raid in Midgard where a group of Hibs caught them at the milegate and killed 90% of the raid, causing the zone to crash from the volume of deathspam?"
Rags thats the story I have told to every youngster who ever asked me what DAOC was since it happened. The magnitude of the effort alone makes it epic in their minds.
**Edit**
My son has informed me that my sense of time is slightly off and that I played well through '03. Which is probable, and I am silly. That is all.

Seems like a lot of the folks still around are playing Rift...
If anyone plays SC2 (or I guess if you play WoW... although I don't play and don't intend to start) you can add me as a real-ID friend
My e-mail is kudoss@gmail.com
Put a note with a daoc char name that I'd recognize.
Hope to hear from anyone else who might have moved into the RTS genre

Pft bards aren't going to get touched, they're just as easily focus fired as any other class, and 80% of their heals-per-second require an enemy to be in 20 meter range.

I came back after 5 years and have been pleasantly surprised how many old names i see popping up. For some odd reason early this year alot of us all desided to re-up with in like 3 months of each other. Might be woth a 14 day log in to Uppland/Gorge/savage and shout out in local see if you recognize any one that replys.
