How To Take A Keep

[bigp3rm]

I don't know how many times I have seen destruction fail at this.

You don't take a keep by pulling from stairs or ramps. All you have to do is rush the 2nd floor catwalk. Move to the siege platform on the 2nd level. The hero and champs will drop agro.

You can then pull one at a time. The only issue is knockback. But this can be avoided by placing you back to the keep wall on the catwalk. I hope you all use this tactic becuse it is proven to work.

Lets win!

A member of ours "Submariner" posted this link as a helpful suggestion of a partial strategy that could be used in keep raids and RVR in genral. I thought it may be helpful to share with all.

ROFL.. best link ever. Kill the healers everyone. Kill them first.

i have seen more keep takes fail because:

1. the handful of defenders are untouched while the attacking force concentrates on NPCs. seriously.
2. people loiter under oil, blocking everyone else. seriously.
3. there are 78 chiefs and 1 indian. seriously.

everything above seems moronic when you read it on the forums, but it is even 100x more moronic when you see it in practice.

destruction, never stop moving when taking a keep with defenders, move to the top of the keep and fight down. fighting uphill has zero chance of success.
if someone stops under oil and gets others killed, encourage them to delete their character and reroll order.
listening to a single strategy that has a 50% chance of success is better than listening to 100 strats - no matter how good they are.

You guys should just attack keeps defended by the Reavers.

The most frustrating part is when our own team decides to bottleneck at the door / bridges and stare at the enemy WHEN WE ARE ASSAULTING.

MOVE IN YOU STUPID MELEE!
