More newbie questions Reply to this Post Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Posts Report Post to a Moderator       Go to the top of this page

1. What is a server event exactly? The description suggests that it effects all vampires in the realm but I haven't seen mention of it yet. Has a Server event ever occurred?
2. As I understand it guns use Perception to hit and Knowledge for damage. But Knowledge seems far less useful then Agility. So why do people use guns?
3. I'm not in a clan yet but what if anything can a low level vampire do to help in a clan siege?

1. Tutorial
This is the description of server events in the tutorial. They affect every aspect of a vampires life: damage, training parameters, chances for a successful quest, etc.
2. People use guns to kill melee fighters. Not everybody has lots of agility so they have been given an opportunity to kill those melee fighters. Some people think that high agility can make them invulnerable so they don't improve perception. With low perception they can be killed by gunners which makes the game fair.
3. In some clans low level vampires are used as shields for the stronger ones decreasing the chance of being hit. And in my opinion more people in siege = more fun Smile

As always Ty for the reply.
1. I read the Tutorial. I still don't know how often Server Events occur or who they effect. "During an event, in upper left corner of resources window, an icon appears that represents current happening. " What does the icon look like?
2. So if I use guns I would want to attack vampires with high Agility but low Perception?
3. So if my task would be meatshield I would want to try to raise my HP and defense instead of trying to deal damage right?

1. I don't have a screenshot right now so maybe someone else would show the icon Smile
2. It would be hard to kill someone with a gun if he has high perception. Mostly players prefer to raise only one parameter. I would even say that there is no universal soldier Tongue
3. Only at the beginning you would be a meatshield. You can make yourself a tank but you won't do any damage in sieges. Mostly tanks survive up to the last round and the siege ends with a draw. It's really hard to become a tank but it's really useful. Mostly players choose to be damage dealers because it's much easier to be Tongue

2) I'm melee fighter and I can beat anyone (except zauburion). I use different equip for different people. I use 4 type of sets: High reputation, High agility, Medium reputation/agility, Huge damage(for sieges and high defence players).
So when you will use guns you need to have different type of sets like: High reputation for guns/ranged, High perception; High damage (for melee fighters). Most of players have only 2 type of sets for defence and attack. This is mistake because if you want to defeat anyone you need different sets.
3) There is no weak players at siege. If you manage to take few hits then you are useful.

To see a server event look where it says your name near the top of the page and occasionally just to the left of that a picture comes up and give bonus (good or bad) to all vampyres.

Well, I will anwser the question that haven't been answered.

The server events are occuring fully randomly. It can occure once per month or twice per month.
