The new generation of Knights and Legion

[divsky]

Well we all remember the old Legions.. Thkot, Rolf, Tx, and all the old Knights, Prastin, Navatar, Jermayn..

But if you havn't noticed, most of them are gone. And since then both Legions and Knights have been fairly inactive. Until recently. A new wave of Knights (Adeiwin, Jaran, and Iriqeous, just to name a few of them) and Legions (Ulf, Jakurajaki, Rodeurs) have just been inducted and it seems like we're looking at the next generation of Knights and Legions.

So, in the long-run, who do you think will come out on top? The Knights or the Legions?

[jaran]

Dunno, should be interesting. Short term possibly Legion, although there seemed to be TONS of Knights on today, so if they can keep up the activity and numbers the Knights will do well.

The winner will have the crap kicked out of them by Justice.

I've seen how some of the knights operate and it's pretty bad. What I've seen is they toss their bodies at you, like a star crazy teenager, get killed, and then after gather a few pieces of mithril and whatever and try to do it again... (sarcasm part up next) except this time for somereason they think they'll beat the guy they beat before because now they' re missing all their good equipment, but Geez, the mithril stuff is waaay better then what they had before.(sarcasm over) It's almost like their plan is to pile up enough bodies, so the Legionnaires maybe might trip over one of them and the knights'll get a lucky hit in. I mean some of the knights I've seen might as well be permanent ghosts because they show up, and whamo, one way ticket to ghost town, population, them. On the other hand yah, Dav has a good point, Justice will beat down whoever.

Justice is like the equalizer. They kinda pop in and beat down whoevers in the lead.

Remmenon, I am sooo excitied to kill your current char. Over and over and over and over.

[Davairus]

Well from what I'm seeing Knights is loading up with mages/laggers and thats damn fucking dangerous. I mean its hard to rank that but once you get it set up and lagged dirt/dispel/hellstreaming the other guys, its over for anyone in any suit of eq. Legion has.. how many mages? None. How many laggers? A few guy who can trip. They're pretty much filling with survivable classes, which is great for people who play without cabals, or the usual 1 on 1, but they dont synergize as good in groups. Knights playing style will work when they pinnacle, and Legions will be deathly scared of anathema. Thats my thoughts. Course, people will probably just delete before it blossoms.

I think Knight and Legion should forget about fighting eachother and just both try to beat down the evil Justice empire.

[Slade]

My money is on Legion. Ulf is going to own all the knights.

[Phostan]

I'd like to point out a few things.

Who is there sitting at 50 to pk the shit out of the Knights leveling up? Jaimoa? Wow. If anything, there's half a dozen level 50's helping them.

Who is there sitting at 50 to pk the shit out of the Legion leveling up?
A lot of people, myself included. Who's there to help the Legion level up? Once again, Jaimoa. Wow. They are so screwed. Ulf is probably the only one who'll hit 50.
This is gonna be harsh, but in a way that's harsh for someone else, and not for me. The thing cabals had going for them recently was the induction process. Level to 50, THEN get inducted. Now it's level to 45, hit 50's range, watch as they run and sit in your cabal and have their way with you when you go to defend. I'm all for it though, makes it more dramatic when the balance of power tips to the other end, cause the underdog came out on top. It just might be a few batches of Legion before it happens. Though all the Knights seem to be newbies, so maybe they'll slip up and botch the whole operation.

[Jamus]

Dude, didn't even think about that. Aren't the Knights kind of the newb cabal , though? Legions are a little more hard-core I thought.

[Nero]

Um, I believe you're thinking of Heralds being for newbs. How could the Knights be a newb cabal going against the more hardcore Legion? I think you'll find that Legion attracts more of the 'hardcores' as you have much more 'freedom' of action within Legion, than you do in Knights...or something.

And remember...balance will always shift. That's the great thing about this game, it doesn't matter who holds the balance at any given moment...it is designed to swing both ways at the drop of a hat.

This is the List of noob to hardcore

Herald
Warlord
Justice
Knight
Legion

Heralds, you dont pk. You can be a noob and still write well.

Warlord, you cant be a big man if youarent any good, but alot of noobs start this out after they hit their 'I want in a cabal' stage.

Justice, you learn to track, you have protection in the town and shit.

Knight, A more controlled pk environment, you have friends that you know are friends that cant and wont backstab you.

Legion, Pk Environment. You have enemies and guys who arent enemies right then.

[Davairus]

We have some cabals more noob-friendly than others but that doesnt make them 'noob cabals'.

[Remmenon]

If you meant killing my already leveled up guy.. Bepodo.. Then go for it, I'll whoop yah.

......
Look at my record.. *gulp*

*Note to self.. Hope no one knows who my char is... *
