True Pikey, why bother to get maxed and all if not for PvP. Continueing for me after 50 if not doing it really seems pointless if just doing PvE, those that do both I guess I can understand some though.. "but very little still", sure at the beginning of a new axpansion it can be somewhat exciting, but that feeling is usually gone after 5 mins or so
If I would play this game for PvE I would install Baldursgate/Planescape Torment now there is RPG´s worth spending time PvEing because of the good story and so
An have to agree with many peeps here, fair fights is the only fights worth winning really, all the fun is gone when there is to many on only afew enemies.

everyone in my guild like to pve and only rvr to get abilities which will help them in that pve
We like to be maxed to the hilt and its easier for us cause we dont need maxed resists!!
RvR = end game for some
for others - there is no end game...ever

JEWISH OFFICIAL:
Matthias, son of Deuteronomy of Gath.
MATTHIAS:
Do I say 'yes'?
STONE HELPER #1:
Yes.
MATTHIAS:
Yes.
OFFICIAL:
You have been found guilty by the elders of the town of uttering the name of our Lord, and so, as a blasphemer,...
CROWD:
Ooooh!
OFFICIAL:
...you are to be stoned to death.
CROWD:
Ahh!
MATTHIAS:
Look. I-- I'd had a lovely supper, and all I said to my wife was, 'That piece of halibut was good enough for Jehovah.'
CROWD:
Oooooh!
OFFICIAL:
Blasphemy!
He's said it again!
CROWD:
Yes! Yes, he did! He did!...

Did you hear him?!

Yes! Yes, we did! We did!...

Look. I don't think it ought to be blasphemy, just saying 'Jehovah'.
CROWD:
Oooh! He said it again! Oooh!...
OFFICIAL:
You're only making it worse for yourself!
MATTHIAS:
Making it worse?! How could it be worse?! Jehovah! Jehovah! Jehovah!

WOMAN #1:
Good shot!
[clap clap clap]
when the game was released.... there were no Realm ranks... so the arguement of taking a keep or going out with a load of RR1 people holds no water... same as any arguement that says... "would you go out with someone who is only ML1?" MLs and TOA artis are but a year old... before they were introduced people would rvr without them... they are a "nice to have" not essential...
Hell my shade... which I play solo almost 100% of my time is ML1, has SOM and Traitors some ROG armour and just Hit RR4 on Saturday... is a load of fun... I try to avoid adding... but sometimes I just cant help myself... when I have been wtfpwned by some RR10 inf or other and I see them engaged with a hib... yes I will wade in and PA... simply as an act of revenge and to ensure that they die... I'll deal with the backlash from my fellow hibs in my own way... generally speaking ill ignore it. If I add though I will generally PM the person after to explain... its my nature.
If I get told to FO or other such nonsense I treat the comment with the contempt it deserves.
FRANCIS:
Now, this is the palace in Caesar's Square. Our commando unit will approach from Fish Street, under cover of night, and make our way to the northwestern main drain. If questioned, we are sewage workers on our way to a conference. Reg, our glorious leader and founder of the P.F.J., will be coordinating consultant at the drain head, though he himself will not be taking part in any terrorist action, as he has a bad back.
BRIAN:
Aren't you going to come with us?
REG:
Solidarity, brother.
BRIAN:
Oh, yes. Solidarity, Reg.
FRANCIS:
Once in the sewer, timing will be of the essence. There is a Roman feast later in the evening, so we must move fast, and don't wear your best sandals. Turning left here, we enter the Caesar-Augustus memorial sewer and from there, proceed directly to the hypocaust. This has just been re-tiled, so terrorists, careful with those weapons. We will now be directly beneath Pilate's audience chamber itself. This is the moment for Habbakuk to get out his prong.

DEADLY DIRK:
We're going to kidnap Pilate's wife, take her back, issue demands.
FRANCIS:
So are we.
DEADLY DIRK:
What?
FRANCIS:
That's our plan!
DEADLY DIRK:
We were here first!
FRANCIS:
What do you mean?!
DEADLY DIRK:
We thought of it first!
WARRIS:
Oh, yeah?
DEADLY DIRK:
Yes, a couple of years ago!
P.F.J.:
Ha. Heh. Ha ha.
DEADLY DIRK:
We did!
FRANCIS:
Okay, c-- co-- come on. You got all your demands worked out, then?
DEADLY DIRK:
'Course we have.
FRANCIS:
What are they?
DEADLY DIRK:
Well, I'm not telling you.
P.F.J.:
Aghhh...
FRANCIS:
Oh, come on. Pull the other one.
P.F.J.:
Shh!
DEADLY DIRK:
That's not the point! We thought of it before you!
WARRIS:
Did not.
DEADLY DIRK:
We did!
FRANCIS:
You didn't.
C.F.G.:
We bloody did!
BRIAN:
Shhhh!
P.F.J.:
Shhhhh! Shh.
DEADLY DIRK:
You bastards! We've been planning this for months.
FRANCIS:
Well, tough titty for you, Fish Face. Oh! Oh.
RANDOM:
All right.
WARRIS:
Clever. You sly...
BRIAN:
Brothers! Brothers! We should be struggling together!
FRANCIS:
We are! Ohh.
BRIAN:
We mustn't fight each other! Surely we should be united against the common enemy!
EVERYONE:
The Judean People's Front?!
BRIAN:
No, no! The Romans!
EVERYONE:
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yes.
FRANCIS:
Yeah. He's right.
RANDOM:
Look out!
RANDOM:
Careful.
[clop clop clop clop clop clop clop]

Uhh, you were going to punch me.

in 1 vs 1 fight I always try to let be alone, might stand and watch to see who would win, or if there came more, and if the one soloing alb/mid had np and no ther interferrance Il let him be, thins is what I think all should do, or imo YES the are just leeching even thugh most think that is impossble.

I tend to check healths before I add... and if the hib is fine then ill watch... if they are less than the enemy... I see no point in watching a realm mate die.

Well if I knew we where going to loose, I can´t say I would have a proplem with this.
Whats annoyes me most is when people add when there is no need what so ever, and as I think I said "We did it for the REALM ,oh yeah, sure you did ".
Well can always say you did, but more likely just wanted to get some extra RP´s, if enemies is on keeps and on tower then I se no wrong in anyway of helping, because then you are really doing so... pft say Helped the realm when helping some kill off some alb/mid gimp groups that is running around ;P
