Possible pally guild on guinevere!Follow

#1 Oct 26 2004 at 12:23 AM Rating: Decent
Hey all. I'm thinking about starting an all pally guild on guinevere. I'm curious to know what folks think of the idea. If you would please, give me some honest feed back about the pro's and con's. thanks in advance.

Great.. you will rock PvE and suck in RvR. It depends on what you want out of it.

Personally, i like the idea of an all pally guild, but i also think there may be some problems with rvr. how severe would the problems be though, is the question. 8 pallies in a grp with unlimited endurance, 400hp healed per twist, possibly 2h pallies for damage, and multiple shield slams (9 seconds per stun). how bad can that really be? granted, there are no casters in the grp, and croud control becomes a problem, but there are ways around that.

lol take on 8 casters in RvR with 8 pali's then come talk to me. You dont have speed, you run out of power, you only have a gimpy rez, no long range attacks and only the small pally faith heal. I wouldnt join an "all wizi" guild.

multiple shield slams on 1 enemy? keep in mind there is an immunity timer once stunned, so it's not like you can chain stun with slam over and over. in today's RvR, whether it be 8v8 open field or tower camping or keep siege, you don't have the necessary components to do well. No CC, no real dps (even with 2h pallys), no intense targetted heals (keep in mind that a good caster can hit you for anywhere from 250-900 depending on resists/relics every 2-3 seconds, not to mention aoe insta stunning mids. Your heal chant will simply not keep up), ghetto rez. Even with det5 tanks you will drop pretty quickly.

I imagine an all pally guild will decently against a stealth group or any other all melee. But throw in a bard or a skald or a healer/druid and you won't kill your target fast enough without losing 1 or 2 of your own ppl (this assuming you've got the assist train on the healer).

If you truly want a good 8 man alb group, roll a s/s pally, a merc, 2 clerics, a sorc, a minstrel, a matter cabby, and a fire or ice wizard. Merc and Pally need battlemaster ML8 for bodyguard, and you're golden. I honestly can't think of a better group right now. Especially if your sorc is at the top of his game.


PvE wise, I can assume you'd do... fairly well. As long as you know how to make a Main Assist and learn how to use him.

Do heal chants stack?
