Corsair Stronghold

I'm pretty sure that most of TERA community will agree with me that CS needs changes and it needs them fast. It was first battleground i have ever played and i still like it the most. When it become level 65 only queue time become longer, when it became 2 man queue it takes forever to find a raid. It has been changed so many times and every time we got 2 man queue, it's almost impossible to find a match, mostly cause people are not ready to wait 30+ minutes to end in possibly a trap raid. Hope you will do some changes soon and make CS great again :D

    CS needs to be 5man q

    FWC needs to be unEQ gear over a new ilvl.



    ^^^ That's what will make BGs and Tera great again!

    Current Corsair Stronghold Advantages and Disadvantages:
    Disadvantages right now, level 65 Cap:
    More queuing time. CS didn't even pop outside peak hours.
    Player:
    Clueless, and didn't realize that he/she/bear/cat/dog is lead.
    Inner is boring job, and let someone (healer/tank? or archer) take it.
    While got leaks, still continue to PVP at gate and when lose, type "WTF, Good Job Inner, Zzz, etc etc..."
    Chances to get less than 20/20 people in group is high. Like 20 vs 16 sure win condition.
    People got kicked or leave raid, no replacement came in.
    Got "Cap'n" title, think that he/she is experienced in CS and give orders accordingly but refused to lead and blame leader and teammate for being [filtered] because no one is listening to him/her.

    Advantages:
    More chances likely to win due to "expert" and "experienced" teammate/lead.
    Everyone are likely get every skills and crystals needed.

    Disadvantages of level 30 Minimum:
    Leveling bot, leveling afk, recruit.
    Crystal: Using PVE crystal. Eg: Pounding and Hardy.
    Player:
    Clueless as he/she/apache/panzer is learning.
    Siege Tank and Turret is furniture for show only or not even using siege at all.
    Shoot all over the places as Inner Turret after Inner Gate collapse.
    No accessory, no accessory crystal and no inner armor.
    PVP during attack, didn't burn gate nor care about order (capture pyre, defend pyre or climb rush).
    Take ships even though lead did says 20/20 burn gate.
    Meanwhile during defends, afraid to die (didn't jump off the wall to kill gate DPS).
    Can't use higher level skills as they are low level and didn't have the skill yet.

    Advantages:
    Fast queuing even outside peak hour.
    Fast leveling, more experience than Kumas.
    Get replacement at most of the time even though someone got kicked or rage-quit the raid.
    Overall:
    Blame teammate for being BR.
    Once a BR player talk BR in chat, got kicked. Even though 10/20 in raid is BR.
    Blame lead, blame healer, blame inner even though inner was 1/3 on both ladder.
    Pyre got captured, blame teammate for leaving the pyre empty.
    Trying to be PVP Hero during attack,
    Solo PVP outside while Inner gate being burned during defense.

    Advantages:
    Valuable Sea Chest to use for Strongbox Key or sell on broker/player directly.
    Achievement: 10/20/50 bomb kills, 1/5/20 straight CS win. 200 win get Black Pearl (black skinny horse) at speed 275.
    Title: Win 1/10/50/150 to get "Swabby", "Swashbuckler", "First Mate" and "Cap'n" title, respectively.

    And most of people in Tera be like:

    2-man queue is bugged. Queue solo and see if it pops.
  • Yeah, I think they need to completely remove CS achievements since they're impossible with 3 hour queues

    your analysis is so detailed, i have nothing to add :D

    one thing they can do to help keep cs active throughout most or even all times of the day is to fix the 5 man queue, and take the steps to ensure it doesn't keep reverting back to 2 man after major updates

    even if this leads to team premade vs team no premade, at least cs would be popping frequently

    I agree with @metagame on this one, I know guilds and groups of friends out there who'd go for 5-man queues over 2-man and solo queues. Corsairs' Stronghold is one of the most loved battlegrounds in my opinion, and I want to see it live and active again.
    What do you think, @Spacecats @DonkeyProphet?

    well, not just guilds, lot of people did lfg for cs when it was 5 man
  • edited November 2016
    Yeah, we need the lvl 30 back. At least the Sea chest price will drop. They killed Drawmasylum with 65 only, Killed CS and lastly killed FWC, what's next? oh forgot to mention they will made 65 only and 1-64 Kumas Royale bg on a future patch... BHS loves to kill bgs.

    Edit: PS: 2 man que its ok, since no more Op premades, they should do that on FWC.
