Most brutal trade run

lol what was that like 4 hours long, from hotan to dw, it was absurdly long, revolution had a person grinding on maongs, and tell his guild where we were, we had 6 guys show up, on us all 8th degree 5 bowman and a 1 blader.
they killed us, guardia respawned came back and killed on then died then a long cycle of killing them and dieing, (mean while i lay dead and watch my goods being carried off) then we got quarcas to join a 70x wizzard (should be 80 soon), by the time they actualy got there, revolution had a cleric show up out of job suit, and when ever one died they would just res, then player showed up doing the same thing, for our side this little struggle went on for like 4 hours, in the mean time i lost almost all my goods. Their mistake was their cleric tried to murder Player, and that was the turning point. So now being free to kill their cleric, he did. Still some back fowarth fighting in the dead ravine, they got held off at the west end long enough now for me the 2 other traders to get out the other side.
Realizing they probally would try to cut us off on the main route we turned left and north most part were we can cross the canyon, and took a straight shot from there to dw west gate. Once we got really close they came riding up from the main path, the one they expected us to take, one got off his horse and like 4 people opened up on him all in the 50's and lower 60's still managed to kill him, after tons of knock back.
I got in finally and only have 200k of the 1.1 m i left with, sold it dind't quite cover my loses, but we made them work so hard for what they got. Then of course they global us for being noobs, who still fought them off desipte them clericing out of job suit first and the fact they are all known botters.
part of me felt i have to commend them on their effort and they determination, but they had to go be total jerks about it, still it was psycho fun, people who call pvping in job suit at the gates job war, obviously should redifine it and call what ever the hell kind of trade that was a job war

I think the thing most worth of commendation is the fact they sat there at their computers for so long.
Sounds like it was heaps of fun! WHo cars about the loss if it's damned good fun. lol

no screens lol, i was too busy trying to minimize my losses, and do you want 4 hours worth of screen shots most of which would just be me dead in dead ravine
had i been aware it was going to last this long i might have, but i had assumed all was completely lost. How ever i wasn't going to stop , and neither were they.
Too bad you missed it necro we could have used the help. Though i'm not sure you might have just been dead as much as witch was but he did get a few kills, not like he could kill more then one at a time alone though.

I woulda been dead weight. I think after I screwed them around at the GW, they know I'm a bit of a nasty target, even if I don't do a lot each hit.

oh idk you might have been better then that, its pretty lame i'm in your acadamey and i never noticed you got over 70. I thought you were still in your 60's, i should pay more attention instead of just sliding acadamey chat to bottom of window.

Nah, I have the little problem where I can only hit one target mainly at the moment. I won't be able to do AoE everything until 100 cap. Best I could do is try and disable the hardest hitter, then get one shot for my trouble.

I love being a warlock, because I usually only fight in groups, and that's where we shine.
Though I need to be buffed. They don't ignore me anymore... unless I use illusion.

lol still thats alot of silk 6 bucks for 10 potions, so that would be 60 for 100 potions, and like another 48 dollars to get the last bit of skill gone, so 108 dollars to change... umm i'm not paying that, i can deal with just collecting hearts

1380 hearts -> 138 skills. divide it by 5 which is 27.6 so 28. 28 time 28 = 784. that is 78.4 dollar

It can happen, no prob ^^
But if you can spare like 20-30 bucks I would atleast use it to remove a bit of it because you will loose ALOT of sp when you do it all by hearts =/

Cleric without job suit ressing others is the most annoying thing on job war. Joymax should restrict a cleric from ressing anyone that is on job suit unless u also have a job suit on.
I have murder to clerics during trades cuz of this.

ya it would be most fair to make it so you can't buff or res them unless you are suited up, but what ever

Venus seems to be the craziest/funnest server right now, I see topics about their fun wars and stuff.
I play in venus also =P its GREAT here. Im in the _S_A_I_N_T_S guild.
Our guild just did a 5 star trade run yesterday, about 1.5 or 2 hours long cause there was 3-4 thieves following us and we also had trouble ourselves without those thieves cause then we had a stupid level 45 trader killing the level 30 traders cause of their NPC thieves, and we had like 4 hunters and 4 merchants it was fun!
VENUS FTW <3 and this server is semi-new too lol. A lot of english players play in this server. I would say athens or babel has the most english players of the old-server era.. but in the new era its all about venus yayuh!

That was the most fun i had in jobbing. Rev's team came and the stupid mistake they did was they didnt bring potion to detect invisibility. I pwned them 1 by 1 and my 80% swing march helps a lot! They dont have the chance to catch me. LOL.. Kill them many times, died many times too. But it's all worth it. It's all about fun. I burned more than half of my GT for that. :p

lol, larger, but for a short trade from one town to the next 4 hours makes it pretty damn brutal, not dozens of traders going a long ways, thats just a long trade, but when it takes 4 hours to go from hotan to dw just cause the interferance... well maybe that was more like 3 and half, most brutal one i've done and i've been killed right out side of town before, lol i think just having lost it would have made it seam better, but it was pretty fun sort of, guardia got the fun part, but i'm still only 55, so not like i could do anythign to those guys
