Thinking of transfering

[Valixion]

Hey all, just posting here to ask a few questions so I can make a decision of transferring my burglar here!

1. What kind of action is prominent here? (solo, small group etc.)

2. What are the prime time hours?

3. Is there a decent freep to creep ratio? (My servers over run with freeps atm)

Thanks for any replies in advance!

Mostly small groups, although there can be large fights on the weekend nights. 1v1s are pretty common. Prime time is the evening eastern time, but unless its a weekend it usually still doesn't get packed most nights. It seems like the creep/freep ratio is somewhat even, might even have more creeps, but with freeps being so much stronger than creeps right now grams camps are still common.

I haven't played on other servers so I can't really compare, but you can usually find small fights or 1v1s most afternoons and nights, but large fights are rare. Roll a freaver and check it out.

And who knows how U13 will change things.

On Riddermark I will be straight forward and just say that when it comes to PvP not much happens. Not enough players to get it going most of the time. Riddermark has a more casual atmosphere and at times can take from a minute to half hour just to get a 6 or 12M instance going. As for the hours best suited for the Riddermark clan, it's server time is on Est. time zone so it surges in early morning and again in evenings.
What you will find on Riddermark is a small knit group of mostly friends helping friends and an occasional newbie when they speak up because the chat isn't cluttered with the influx of useless chatter.
I hope this helps in your decision making some. If it's PvP your after I recommend somewhere else than Riddermark, if it's fun no pressure hey I remember you wanna help us get this player his/hers deed done and we'll be there for you type of server then we will be waiting to say hello and GL. Hello and GL

Having tried Brandy and Imaldris I don't think Riddermark is half as bad as people would make out. Lots of 1v1s, small solo fights and outpost fights. If I am still awake on Est. nights (I live in UTC) there can be some RvR engagements. I mainly creep and I see over there several new tribes coming through - worryingly there seems to be warg pack tribe! As a soloer on both sides it can be very quiet occasionally but with U13, as Kaern said, hopefully we will see some faces returning.

What's happening in U13? Patch notes?

Bad creeps will now be on par with the bad freeps.

Creeps are generally getting buffed, more finesse, damage, and healing. Freep mits are getting nerfed, and freeps can buy passes to the moors with mithril coins.

Cheers for the responses. From what has been said it seems Ridder might be a good fit as I tire from the constant RvR/ Grams camps that are highly common on my server (Landroval). I prefer small group action but on my server it can prove to be suicidal since the craid likes to steam roll anyone they come across, including 1v1's. Once I have some free time I'll roll a toon to see how the community is and go from there. Thank you guys again for the responses

But I don't wanna be on par with the bad freeps!

Well, the Creep one is needed, a little. Not a whole lot of buffing. The Freep one, okay... I'll be serious is needed. Stupid Freeps with your stupid Opness (Say it slowly). I like how they add that Moors passes after I finish Freeping like a few years ago. #######.
