Title: New Face in AvA
Post by: MarineUS on January 10, 2011, 03:21:53 AM
You guys should start seeing me in there more often now. Tired of LW, and I've always like the enemy icons off idea. I need all the ability to hide I can get :P

Can't wait to get my butt kicked in here :)

Been here since month 1 of AH....time to give this a go.

 :aok  Welcome Marine

All of us get our butts kicked in the arena.  The key is to remember that you aren't loosing perks, and you can get back up and in to a fight in a matter of seconds.

Most setups, especially the current one, are good for fights to occur in less than 2 minutes with 2 willing opponents.  I read a long time ago that becoming a good AH stick was not all about flying to begin your fight with the advantage, sometimes it was necessary to be good at flying with a disadvantage.  This is something that I have noticed about a select few.

So, what time do you usually pop in?  I will be on the look out to fly with you and hopefully many others.  The weekends and evenings after 8:30 pm EST are usually the most populated times.  I fly earlier because of my schedule.  The one good thing also to keep in mind is that all you need is 2 willing participants, duking it out, and before you know it folks start popping in.

Well then, I should be lots better than I am; I start almost every fight at an alt disadvantage.  Seems like no matter how high I think I need to be, I should have been another 3-8k higher to be co-alt with an incoming contact.   :uhoh

Welcome to the fray, Marine!   :salute  You picked a good time time jump in with the Twin Rivers map up.  I have personally cleared most of the trees off the map.  So, that will be one less hazard you'll have to deal with.  :lol
