Wow man this is clearly the most pro Psy in the history of the world. I wish I was as awesome as him.

TheDendra - Harshlands · February 2012

No beef with mr. pro, just stating some facts...

2minor problems - the videos are fixed so that they only show death of random noobs for the most part and no epic failures. That's kind of obvious - pretty much the same as finding a r9 noob to own 50times, post a video how you pwned a r9 with r8 gear and then every noob will go, "omg you're so pro, you killed a r9 with that gear" - nah, the r9 just sucked that much.

Second problem - mr.pro psy never fights 1on1, he only attacks after his target engages somebody else or doesn't even remotely see him coming. If he gets attacked, he just runs away, pref. with holy path - if he stays, he dies. Granted, you could say it's a smart way of fighting, on the other hand if you die every time you fight 1on1, what does that tell you

With that said, obviously there have to be good things to the videos a newcomer can pick up things from. Point of my rant being, take everything you see with a grain of salt. Just because you don't see the psy fail in videos doesn't mean it didn't happen plenty times, it simply means he cut out every lil bit that shows his other side (if I ever happen to find myself in a situation that I can record TWs, I guarantee there will be no cutting, but then that's just me - what you see is what you get, pretending you're something you're not doesn't entertain me)

On a side note, if you don't have a good pc/have a crappy laptop, you won't be able to play that style as efficiently because like some people, you're forced to play with everything turned off (so for the most part you can't even see where your enemies are standing and need to predict blindly their positions or play with 1fps and see everybody, see how that goes).

You're in Afterlife, right?
If so, I think we've now solved the mystery of how a guild filled with alts kicked Afterlife's ***.

TheDendra - Harshlands · February 2012

I wasn't in that TW on my psy nor in Afterlife at that time

It was probably one of the dumbest losses in history of TWs, it takes skills to lose to a lvl91 cata barb, but that has nothing to do with you dying everywhere on the battlefield, responsibility falls on the shoulders of Afterlife's conductor.

Why don't you show the full video of TW? 10mins taken from 2hour TW, others can do the math how many times you died and looked far less pro or whatever you wish to glorify it with

Like I said, I never liked these fake videos set up to promote all the good moments, but never showing an actual flow of the battle and all the ups and downs.

91 barb being me right? b:shutup

But you know if the TW video's weren't cut they would be boring as heck seeing the squad rebuff every 5 seconds because someone stubbed there toe and died... And then you would lose intrest and go off to do something else.

Edit: Though i'd have to say this PK video is decent: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwcaSIKxvdM

How am I not showing the "actual flow of the battle" when the last TW vid vs. Afterlife shows them on our crystal at least three times, with me having to sacrifice myself to manage a kill on a barb/cata cleric/zhen? FFS, that entire vid is basically us chasing down your catas to make SURE they don't even touch the crystal, after it got below 2mil.

What the hell kind of statement is "show the full vid" when that'd be 2 friggin hours and no one in their right mind would (or could) upload that?

Basically you're saying that the vids are some GIANT CONSPIRACY!! and that somehow, even though I show myself managing ganks and even holding off an entire cata squad with just myself and a veno (so signs I'm competent, I would hope), I'm constantly dying and completely useless to the very team I'm leading for ALL of the footage not shown. You sit there and say I only "gank" people in TW as if you've never been in a TW in your whole damn life, and yet you wanna ignore the points where I'm being ganked and I overcome it alone. And the loss to Afterlife is supposedly all Afterlife's fault, as if any thought or strategy I put into the TW is all null and void; we're just helpless to change anything and Afterlife gets to decide completely how it goes?

It's baseless accusations and illogical ones as well. More importantly, it's all the hell out of left field, as I don't think I've ever spoken a word to you in game, nor do I know if I've even seen you in PK or TW.
But whatever, have fun claiming you're superior to people just by watching their TW vids when you're perfectly capable of fighting them yourself.

TheDendra - Harshlands · February 2012

Fact 1: We fought a total of 7 times in rpk I believe. First time you backstabbed me while I was fighting two sins. Then I attacked you two times and died, checked your gear, realized you have r8+10 whereas mine is r8+7. So I changed my approach, switched to white voodoo and watched you die three times to soulburn. The 7th encounter you tried to soulburn me while I fought a wizard, luckily I noticed soulburn and moved away, thus resulting in a no-contest for that one.

Fact 2: You showed 13minutes of a 2hour long war. I agree it would be too much to show the entire TW, however that doesn't negate the fact that you picked 20 encounters in which you came on top or died like a hero. All the other cases when your character went splat are not in the video because of course you'd look like a complete noob.

85% of your TW is holy pathing to Towers and running around. Let's say 35% of the time you manage to get away, the rest of the time you failed is not shown in the video. Likewise, most of your fights are against noob barbs/bms and such - example 1: you cast psy. will, bm rushes towards a group of CrimsonJR players and attacks you with fists - spamming resist button messages on his screen until he dies, super intelligent play.

Fact 3: You were far from organized and simply sent your cata left n right along the edges of the map, hoping to sneak in. If Afterlife simply kept 1-2people in the base, you never would've had a chance, why it wasn't the case I do not care because I don't make those decisions.

Bottom line is that I'm not calling you a noob psy, I'm stating your videos make you look better than you really are because people don't see the other hour and a half of the TW where you die and die some more. Point being while your video may give some useful hints to noobs, they don't show the whole story - and if you wish to learn, failing aspect is just as, if not even more helpful.

Next time you make a video, why don't you stop hand picking those 20 situations in which you/your faction looks good, and show more of an actual battle footage and how the whole story unfolded... (i.e. another example is your faction killing a r9 psy once in the TW, which you obviously show in the video, yet you fail to reveal the fact that he ***** you for 2hours and your faction chat was spammed with messages - somebody kill that psy!!!)

So you're saying that instead of highlighting all the points where I do well and exhibit good examples of resistance stacks, kiting or ailment-locking, I should highlight all the points where I do horrible and die.

Tell you what, you can do that, then tell me how outrageously popular your vids are. I'm sure OP and all the other people who viewed this thread will really appreciate them.

^^^^I lol'd that day....many, many times. ......Sorry Dendra. .-.

Longknife, Dendra, please.....you're both pretty! And I think we all know, if we were really having a contest about who's the most awesome Psychic in Harshlands, it's a no brainer that I am...I mean come on, I'm so cool, amirite?

Plus...all my TW's are less than 10 minutes long so I get to highlight a combination of doing incredibly well whilst also dying a painful, agonizing death via R9 +12 demon Plume Shots! It's strangely amusing watching someone trying desperately to compete against people in R9 while they're still wearing +6 TT90 green....over...and over....and over..... b:cry

(Btw Dendra...where'd you run off to on that Endless Universe Instance? It was a smashingly good time...that sin with more HP than me splattered all over the pavement because he didn't get out of the bosses AoE in time and you missed his QQ about the aps "nurf". It was rather amusing....you missed a nice run.)

Actually in this clip:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9bf01hVNqE

About 8:20 in, you can see me and Dralighte doing some boss back2back work. Dendra's attacking me, Dralighte's attacking Dendra, some r9 veno's attacking Dralighte, I'm attacking the r9 veno.

Best I can do to meet your request. :P

this is a pretty good video of psychics against sins as well with some commentary. It's quite informative and very helpful. Check out his channel; it's loaded with pk videos

Gorgonnia - Heavens Tear · April 2012

Wow... that's PK... and in PVP servers? I've been banned for 9 months and I am as rusty as *** and still can do much better than either of you

b:bye

TheDendra - Harshlands · April 2012

@petal - I've been away from pwi so long I can't recall that endless universe run.

@noob seeker - 1v1 me any time, I'm gonna guess you take it as your kill in some wild rpk with 20ppl shooting around and guess what, I'm not taking credit for being durable, r8+7 is not meant to be durable nor is, I'm meant to hit as hard as a r8 can because that's the only thing you got - cuz once those r9s turn around you're good as dead, whether you're r8+10 or r8+7 cannon like me.

So yes, if you wanna talk tough come at me and watch yourself evaporate in one shot - I fought tt99 to r8 geared ppl on regular basis with nothing but lvl35 npc soulphere on me and no armor just to ****** prove a point, and you think you can take me down - be my guest, say the place and time.

Far as learning from youtube videos goes - it's for the most part attention hoes trying to feel relevant and only a handful of actually skilled players. Best lessons you will find are against other players, they don't have to be pros, it's enough that they are one step ahead of you - and sometimes that's the best way to learn things because it's virtually impossible for a beginner to grasp everything an experienced player is doing and why.

Point being you don't have to look for youtube stars to improve your game, you've got pwi friends you play with, train with them, work together on improving your skills. If you happen to run into a good psy who knows his class that'll help you 20times more than any youtube video because communication is interaction, youtube vids are a one-way channel.

Another thing to take into consideration is the time required to learn all the details about the class - if you just hyper levelled char through fcs, chances are you won't really know which psy skill hits harder, which psy skill crits harder, which shards really help you and in what situations,etc. etc.

When you lvl up by doing quests and killing mobs, you have much more time to think about the skills you are using.

Either way, inevitably it's individual choice what you want to do and pwi after all is a low tier game, so you don't really need too many advices on what to do - most of the answers are already served on a silver plate.
