So what's the action line on this server? Freep dominated, creep? Backdoor shuffles, gv/grams camps? 1v1s? moors drama?
Looking to find out what I can before I blindly transfer. The people I'm going with said there's good action, but when I've logged on it seemed dead.
But any info is appreciated, since the server I'm wanting to leave has turned into a cesspool as of late
Vilya seems to be a freep dominated server. The action is inconsistent at best. There are lots of dead times, with the majority of the action seeming to be around prime time.
Creepside the people are generally nice and not cliquish. You won't find an elitist mentality that side. OOC is only full of drama from flippers generally which doesn't happen often. Most of the time it is hillarious, there's quite a few comedians creepside. Everyone tends to group with each other when necessary.
I hope this helps in some way, if you decide to transfer you will be most welcome.
It does, thank you. While I enjoy my freeps, I started creep and wouldn't mind playing both. The non clique thing is the biggest thing I'm looking for. That and non elitist. I'll try and hop on to check it out when I get home. What is the servers prime time?
And thank you for replying
Prime time is usually ~6-10 EST... usually zerg v soloes or zerg v zerg... there is still drama and elitism on both sides (plenty of big egos, but that's consistent with pvp in general). The server is not what it used to be as your tribe leader, the fake Evilspinner can attest to, consistent leadership (quality and consistency may change as time goes on) is vacant on both sides... at best I consider this a casual pvp server, mind set is group up with as many as you can find, talk **** and laugh... then go to bed.Quote:

Vilya is a lot quieter nowadays, similar to many of the other small servers. Peak time you seem to get around 15-20 players on each side, consisting of usually a small raid and some out of group stragglers. The server does seem to have a reputation for being a little bit zergy, and both sides definitely do their share of it, but it isn't as bad as many players make it out to be.
There are competent leaders on both sides but a lack of new players willing to take up the position. As of right now on creep side there are about 4 people who do the majority of the raid leading: Smegg, Imyourdaddy, Splay on occasion, and myself. I know a few of the freep side leaders, but frankly I personally can't distinguish between each one, they all use very similar tactics that were handed down by the leaders before them. In my opinion both sides could benefit from some fresh raid strategies.
In terms of 1v1s, they are out there but you may have to go searching for them, most seem to happen 'off the cuff' randomly. However, be prepared for players to use pretty much everything at their disposal, there doesn't seem to be any specific rules regarding what skills are considered 'bad sportsmanship'.
In terms of clique attitudes there isn't much on creep side, everyone's pretty friendly, however for the first few days you may get a little bit of the cold shoulder. But once people get to know you and know that they can depend on you in a fight they'll take you in like family.
Hope this helps.
