The regular NPCs make up for the difference. That annoying snow storm that blinds anyone who goes into it is only on the bad guys side. That certainly makes up for it IMO.
The one thing I'm confused about is exactly how to join a game of Stronghold pvp. This is an awesome guide but I still have no idea where its at. Is there a level requirement?

Really good guide. Did my first Stronghold at 35 today for a quest, and because I could not wait until 40 to PvP again.
Although I was probably a Burden to my team as it was, I had NO idea of what i was meant to do, now with this guide, I cant wait till 40 + geared to come join in the fun
Updated the more "advanced" Tips of the Mudkipz section with tips on how to deal with Defiant NPCs. The reinforcements as well as Raza and Ironclad.
Also, some of you have PM-ed Vixy about the Medikipz video not working, but when Vixy checked it played fine. Can anyone that was having issues reply with whether or not the video works now?

The video does not work for me, it says that it is blocked in my country for copyright grounds by the UMG.
This one is for PvP in general and not just Stronghold. Added to guide as well as here:
#9) Set up your options such that lifebars for Hostile Players are always shown. This way you can more quickly see which of your enemies is closer to death and be better able to focus your damage output with the rest of your team.
To change this option go to Options > Hud (all the way to the right) > Hostile Players (scroll down to the bottom).
Enabling this option has helped Vixy get many kills. The difference between an enemy that's low on hp and one that is dead is super massively hugekipz. So the speed at which you notice an opportunity for a kill will have a big impact. Hope this helps!
A most helpful tip....wait does this apply to a hostile player's pet's as well? I certainly hope not. Not sure if player with low health bar out of corner of eye on edge of screen or just drone.
There are times though that I just get so excite when I see so many players I can murder that I can't choose so I'll just latch onto the first one a happen to target like a leech. Some other toon's HP drops lower when I'm molesting them? Too bad for they must feel my body caressing them until we both die.
I find double kills, that is to say scuffles that end in both plays buying it at the same time, to be hilarious. Too bad they're so rare. I makes you feel like both a winner and loser at the same time, but it's always funny.
some ppl still dn't know "taking console" and "summon reinforcement". this is one of most important part in stronghold.
even in case you dnt have enough toughness your self, reinforcement will kill gun turrets for you and even in case you dnt have any DPS or any healer in your team, reinforcement will do it for you.
and no healer can take 2 wave of 3-full reinforcement. like this xD

Yes, Stronghold is Tier 4 only. So levels 31+

If your reinforcements roll, they'll line up for a group portrait with you

Sorry about that.
Vixy, It's always been like that for us. Same message since you first made the guide.
Please let Vixy know if the video is not viewable. Can also be found here:

Also, check out the newest tip (#8) with regards to dealing with Defiant NPCs. Cheers!
