    LOL that's hilarious!! XD

    I was tempted to do that hahaha, didn't realize you could be far enough away to not get hit by AOEs though. That's funny xD

    *still laughing my **** off at the part where everyone's hightailing after the cata*

    Wow that made Armageddon look like some of the most incompetent fools of your server. A simple Bramble Rage in the obviously correct location would have made you visible and out of the 40 something people chasing your catapult none of them even considered the idea.

    Embarrassing to say the least

    Actually.. what's the radius of bramble rage? I have it on my genie but can't log in atm & haven't paid attention. If the max range you can be away from the cata while pulling it is greater than the radius for bramble rage, it wouldn't work to unstealth the sin unless the sin that's pulling missteps.

    Too bad awareness pots would probably ruin the fun =(

    It can if he gets close enough to the target(s). But, if he gets close enough, he'll get hit and killed by the turrets.
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    oh..

    so it has to be like this?

    cata---you
    tower

    not this?

    you---cata
    tower

    ^ with this, will the cata not face the tower and attack?

    The catapult only goes as far as you go.

    So, no matter what, it has to be like at some point in time: you=cata
    tower. After the catapult locks onto the target, you can move slightly back:
    you--cata
    tower. However, if you move too far back, catapult follows you, and if you stay too close, AOE will knock you out of stealth.

    last questions for my thoughts

    i wonder if the distance from the catapult (green-orange-red indicator) also calculates height as distance..

    if not maybe you can do this:



    0-=you----
    |<----
    T
    O
    W
    E
    R
    0==0---<---- catapult


    be HIGH enough so most AOE's can't harm you and FAR enough so you can beat barrage's 12meter radius.
    or i could be wrong since it might take less than 12meters for the cata to lose interest on its locked target..

    I have tried several things to try and solo tower/crystals on my own, and i can tell you know that idea is pointless.

    My best was destroying one of the main towers to 40% vs a real guild, but it was rather too costly and the method has 0 tolerance for errors/lag.

    Right skills at the right time + absolute domain>Ironguard combo = enough time to dmg a tower/crystal to the point that it really matters(a bit) All you have to do is to have a mental countdown of the recharge time of 3 skills.

    My advice is not to try and do so, but believe me when i say there is more than 1 way to abuse stealth on TWs. b:cute

    Hopefully soon displayed for everyone's enjoyment in one of my videos.
    It would help a lot if i was in a real TW based guild. b:surrender

    any guild is a real guild. and i would be surprised that your guild would let you pull a cat (to try it out) against a similar power guild. plus what you are suggesting of domain and ironguard can be accomplished by any class... so really... any class can pull the cat and live for 15+ seconds. the sin itself doesn't really have any survival skills to make it any efficent of a puller then... say an wiz.
    1. If I kill you; do something about it yourself, don't go complaining to my wife.
    2. If you have less kill counts then me, don't expect me to take pk advice from you.
    3. If you are hiding behind an alt, don't expect me to acknowledge your existence.
