    Well, that was disappointing.

    I wouldn't say the turnout was abysmal, but it was low. No one seemed to want to actually test what we wanted tested. All they wanted to do was clone camp. No wonder the Event Coordinators never want to do PvP events.

    Definitely disappointing. I'm going to bet it was deda and his crew clone camping the new to ovp people. I'm disappointed.

    Yes, we know Emu devs have a burning hatred for pvp, and we're sorry.
    Fortunately, we have a dedicated testing staff to actually perform such tests within a controlled environment under much more precise circumstances, right?

    It'll be okay, honeybuns.

    Sl retreat didnt seem to work, and then blue frog got bugged out on me after i changed my temp to blow the rebel base so i could not buff or cure wounds or anything so after that it was pretty much GG.
    64% PSG and 450dmg jawas make it quite a slow fight until the jedi on the rebel side (only rebel jedi for some reason) swing by to do some dmg and make you retreat to some very power turrets (and at-st's for that matter)
    ALSO with the cloner/buffs right there and no cooldown waiting for you to buff or go back SF, after you kill a wave there isnt much time to hit the base (which in usual basefights is when the base timer would be activated)

    Also attendance has to be expected to be low, its less than 1/2 of what it was back when we could get 15 v 15's even though the other PvP events back then could bring by 50+ on both sides too.

    as far as the event went I will say I had fun, but after the blue frog bugged on me i didnt stick around too long, I just left the SL running the macros (no retreat for some reason) for the rest of the squad

    Cloners actually had wall terminals that allowed you to buff/heal. I should have been more clear about that capability prior to the event so I apologize for that.

    Thank you everyone that came out today. I was definitely expecting a bigger turn out today so it's a shame we could not give Nova a bigger stress. If you ran into any bugs/anything that did not work properly please please please submit a Mantis report. Obviously, there were some unexpected side effects of having blue frogs, like ATST spam and such, but that's not going to be a case on Basilisk.

    If u catch a PD u gotta wait for the timer to reset of get the next retreat. So if ur 10 sec into it ..and u get a PD or kid....then its 20 sec till u can cat h the next retreat.....
    .current pub unlike last pub necessetates the need for PD and kid defense so u don't loose the retreat from an sl

    deda, next time im online, ill log on and show you that your jedi is not worthy

    there was NO burst run at all, with manual pressing of the retreat command on the sl there would be NO burst run
