@33:45 As for the battering rams, being a siege weapon of sorts it would be cool if they were craftable at the treb in the same crafting window were you craft the trebuchet actual throwing part and perhaps even allow the application of some durability upgrade kits to those battering rams because they really don't last very long; or maybe even weight reduction kits, which ever the player wants.
This is a really good idea. I feel like they’re missing a trick with the trebs. They could be so much better but they are just fiddly to me. But I haven’t had a massive amount of experience with them so maybe I just need some practice to get the best out of them 😅
Yeah, the constant spawning is the same thing that happens in New Asagarth. The enemies aren't all that tough but because there's a never ending supply of them they will wear you down and kill you eventually if you stay too long. So you eventually realize you have to give up on the idea of clearing the place so you can stroll around care free and just get in and only kill the ones in your way and get what you came for and get out quick.
havent seen anyone else mention it, bu ti was doing th raider journey so set up a trebuchet up here, but the last 2 steps in the journey are make a trap with the inventory crafting panel, and lure an enemy into a trap, well you cant make a trap in inventory craft panel anymore, you make it and place it with construction hammer and so it never goes into your inventory and wont trigger the journey, and you cant even place it and pick it up only remove. i had to have an admin on my server spawn 1 in for me and drop it so when i picked it up it triggered the journey.
the constant respawning of the stygian raider is a bug.. what it supposed to be was once you cleared the first gate those outside of the gate will not respawn and then the 2nd gate once you broken it those in the first gate should be not respawn and the same for the 3rd gate court yard.. and now in the live version even after you killed the final boss the mobs outside will still remain to spawn in.. as for the battling ram you can actually buy it from issac the sellsword , and that's why you need to get your tavern up asap so you can enlist him in your tavern so you can buy from him before you do the siege.. as for the loot and yes it's mostly the gold coins, one mushashi black blade, 4 explosive jars, a couple of battling ram, and a couple of recipes randomly located around the rooms which you could get from the library in the unnamed city.. so yeah the loots are not really that impressive at all.. 😅
Thanks for confirming the bug, makes me feel a bit better lol I’m definitely going to get into building our tavern over the Christmas holidays and then grinding on the purge to level them up and have some fun. After a cool down period we will definitely give the siege another go. I do love the whole idea of it and think it has sooo much potential. 😁
We just tried this on our server a couple nights ago. There were 3 of us with thralls and we got our butts kicked! I think the walls are not able to be destroyed. It seems that just the doors and gates can be. We used explosive jars to do the job. We made through the second gate but after losing several lvl 20 thralls, running into bugs like you all did where mobs would take no damage even when hit by us or our thralls and just generally being overwhelmed by the endless mobs coming at us we summoned Yog and wiped out everything! So you do have the nuclear option if they piss you off too much! Also I think the fortress respawns and repairs itself after a bit so you can run again.
That’s insane! We were meant to be able to destroy pretty much everything 😅 I tried an explosive on a door but it did nothing, I will try again another time though. I absolutely love that you spawned Yog in to destroy everything. I think we might go back just so we can do that 😂
Dang… Sorry you had such a rough go in there. I’m pretty sure the fortress, in terms of full siege tactics go, are meant to be dealt with by a large clan, where there would be enough players to keep all the NPC’s scattered and busy. With two people, the only real tactic is to go over the walls (by climbing or sorcery), grabbing the rams and explosives within the second wall area (or coming with them), and using them to bust into the treasure room. Right now, the only way I know of to get the rams outside of the fortress, is the guy you can free from the purges. You’d need to create a tavern (new to the game) and then free a tavern keep from the purge who you can put behind the bar. Then you’ll need to run purges until you free the trader. After that, you’re able to pay your bar keep to enlist the trader, who’ll show up in your tavern for a while. While there, you’re able to trade gold for things he has. I believe the rams are among them (I’m not 100% sure, as I play solo and have just been grabbing the ones that spawn in the fortress). Personally, I prefer to go full agility, so I can use the rolling thrust perk (allows you take a stamina free swing with any weapon, after you dodge). Then I go full vitality for the glutton for punishment perk (refill the health remove from that last attack that connected with you, over time). The rest of the points can go wherever. I then run into the fortress solo (no thralls). Note - At the moment, the boss gives OP experience. If you were to have a brand new thrall set to follow you, but command it to stay put (outside of the fortress), then run in and kill the boss, your thrall would go from 0 to a full (lvl 20 maxed out) experience.
Thanks for all the tips. I’m very much agility too so that helps. And the tip on the Thralls is really helpful. After a little cool off period I’d be tempted to try that. I think we could do much better after a couple more run throughs. We were definitely getting frustrated but we knew it wasn’t made for just two people and it was going to be hard. But once we were in the throws of battle we were not thinking rationally lol I’m really looking forward to building our tavern and doing some more purges. I think the tavern will be my Christmas project 😆
i had a resource base meters from where they dropped that base in iv been stealing there troops ever since its fun run in stir them up run to base the ones chasing get meet by there own friends lol then its collect gear time no more going north for hardened steel
I think after having a cool off period we will definitely give it another go. I think it got harder the more frustrated we got lol but now we know exactly what we’re up against I think we can make a better plan. I found some blind spots around the gates/spikes where we could walk around without being seen so I think I could use that to our advantage some how 🤔 definitely wall climbing when needed is the way to go. Good luck doing it with your group. If you find out any tips on your journey please let me know 😁
@QueenOfSpoonsGaming we did it tonight and we're going to siege thru the gate. But one of our players decided to summon his God instead. He obliterated each door and the boss lol. While we completed it I would reccomend if you use a God just use thru first and 2nd gate otherwise it.destroys a bunch of the chests with loot and takes away the challenge. We plan to try streaming it tomorrow with just siege to get in.
think they spawn back every 10 secs after they die unless you kill the leader then they stop spawning ..i've raided this twice ..if you blow the door down they ALL come out my 2nd raid i used upgraded truncheons and knocked them out they stay out for a while
Oooh that’s a good trick. Might try that with the truncheons. And I definitely want to try the thrall level up. Now we are calmer we will definitely give it another go soon. And will try all the tips and tricks people have shared. 🤞
Well done guys on completing that raid I gotta say I’m impressed with you both. You both have come a long way. I don’t use golems myself because apparently there are a few issues with them, what is your opinion on them ? Also I absolutely 100% agree with you both, the raid on the castle was shit, I understand the concept behind it all but it is poorly executed. Funcom have said that it does need touching up in certain areas and they have admitted to a few glitches but it but they wont be fixing anything in the game until mid January 2024. HUUGGEE CONGRATZ ON A SUCCESSFUL RAID YAYYY and thank you for another well made video. I have been doing purges to try and get myself a bar wench hehe I am up to level 9 purges going great found 2 bar men but don’t want them it’s bar wench or nutta Have fun good adventuring and look forward to your next video.
Thank you so much 😁 I’m really glad we did it and had the experience, even if it was frustrating lol We love the look of the golems but honestly they just acted as a meat shield until they died. I still kinda want to make an army of them and use them in a purge 😆 just so I can watch how cool they look. How have you found the purges since the update? I’m really looking forward to building my tavern over the Christmas holidays and grinding through some purges. I think I want a Barman but I would love to have loads of tables with female dancers on them hehe that’s probably not possible though. Hopefully funcom iron out of the wrinkles in the new year (I’ll believe it when I see it) Thank for watching and supporting, I’m glad you enjoyed the video.
Hello again I liked your idea of having dancers on the tables so I thought I would try it out and it worked hehe it liked funny having random box’s sitting in the chairs around a table with a dancer in it but after awhile I put my dancer back on the stage where she belongs. I have finally reached level 10 purges and for awhile I enjoyed them but now I have grown a bit tired of them the rewards really are not that much better also now my army of thralls has grown too high and powerful for even a level 10 purge so sometimes my purge won’t even begin. I really look forward to your next video. Oh a quick tip … I find the katana is a fantastic weapon if you try this out I am certain you will love this over the claws you use. Also if you like now and arrow try making yourself some noxious gas arrows they are my personal favourites for weakening mobs so by the time the mobs get to me they have lost more than half there life and with a katana they make very easy pickings.
😆 I love this! So we have just got our tavern and was going to put dancers on the tables as requested by the husband but the novelty wore off for me so shoved them on the stage also. But I did make a special room above the tavern for NPCs to enjoy some adult time 😂 That’s interesting about the level 10 purge, I didn’t know your army can get too strong, let’s see if we get there at one point lol I will definitely try a katana and the arrows as I’m a bit bored of what I have and need an upgrade. Our next video will be out later today so keep an eye out 👁️
Ohh your tavern sounds amazing please do a tour of it so that I may see your handiwork ? I love building in this game in real life I worked on construction sites all my life now I do maintenance work at a hotel but this handiwork has transferred over to my gaming. Also if you want a legendary katana I can tell you where to find the best katana in the game it’s called Musashi’s Black Blade and it really is amazing. You can find it in the new siege you just did. When you destroy the 2nd gate turn left and run towards that big wagon go to the right of the wagon and you will see a building with a single torch on it and an awning. You will know you are in the correct building when you go inside you will see 4 single beds and lots of orange Stygian carpets on the ground. As soon as you enter stop turn left you will see 2 large barrels and a small barrel. Look very carefully at these barrels because leaning against the barrels is the legendary katana Musashi’s Black Blade. Enjoy your Samurai slaughtering this really is an over powered weapon hehe
If you bring your own explosive jars for breaking in, it would help. It feels like dipping your toes in the pvp waters. Just play pvp and this will be child's play.

Oh wow thanks for this. That’ll save me time googling trying to work it out. Hhhmm maybe I’ll spawn one in then 🤔
Another great video. Enjoyed it.

Oh my god I absolutely love this idea!. I might get Liam to set up that while I do the tavern over Christmas 😆
Loved that lerooy jenkins😂😂
🤣 everyone seems to get this reference but me lol
@@QueenOfSpoonsGaming He is a legendry world of warcraft player just google it 😂
I don’t know if I want that information in my head 😆
It is tough we have group trying to do it. Suggest having good thralls and getting thru next gates or climbing walls when you can
I think after having a cool off period we will definitely give it another go. I think it got harder the more frustrated we got lol but now we know exactly what we’re up against I think we can make a better plan.

It was an “accident” 😅🤣🤣🤣🤣

its bugged for sure you can take a thrall with you at level 1 if you can beat the boss he instantly levels to 20
At least pvp server raiding other players bases there's loot and lots of variations.
If you bring your own explosive jars for breaking in, it would help.
It feels like dipping your toes in the pvp waters.
Just play pvp and this will be child's play.
