Red Cells Blog

Yup, just a c/p but maybe it will be interesting at some point in the future. Notable things regarding RC: We are gaining more and more ground to OWC and actually closing in to NB (although due to kicks over there if i read things correct :

Faction Name XP Level
1st ROTTK 882,870,962 446
2nd Sigma Stars 716,240,260 416
3rd Nognof Brotherhood 669,287,868 407
4th Red Cell 495,299,330 368

Yep and hi,
all non-readers of this blog. Once more i had to play (or was it actual fighting?) with OO and paint and whatever i used to get a picture here.
And, as the title states it, its once more a graphic on the faction XP of the first 50 factions. Make your own conclusions and post them here...

Just figured that i have to write some more stupid comments here (above the picture) to move the graph down. Otherwise it would show up in the preview and that looks nasty.

Yup. A loooooong and fruitless discussion has happened in the forums on the benefit of the Mental Shield skill of purists and a (supposed) lack of damage from other class skills. I tried to stay out of this but finally i made some posts there...

The basic points are:
- purists have less dmg and att than other classes due to missing class skills tackling that
- MS is equal to 150 HP

Blah. I thought i am able to summarize that here and to put down my own thoughts, but im too tired right now and i figure that if i start this topic again (see here for it:

Ah the joys and pains of a blog: i would like to write something every day or every week. Or... at least regularly, but time is running, even more with a family. Anyways, since my family is gone for the week i have some spare time to waste. Ill try to do an additional entry. Actually im starting it right now i see, errhm...

Ok.
So.

What happened in RC and SS2 then the last month? Nothing earth shaking i think. The Sigma Stars/ROTTK squabble on gaining fXP by de/leveling, including a seriously derailed thread (go to the SS2 forums and find it for yourself, im still lazy....

Hi all,
since i was a bit bored (content, anybody??) i did a puny graph on faction XP of the top factions. No interpretation yet, but feel free to reply your insights

...

Anyways, you can see that we have clearly some groupings in the top 20 or so:

Place 1-3 clearly in front of all other factions with a huge difference of about 140M fXP between 3rd and 4th place.
Place 4-6 as the next group, closer together then 3rd-4th but still a good...

In the blog on our webpage i listed from time to time the "official" achievements (ie the top lists) of Red Cell and its members. I think i have to continue with it here

Top Factions: #5 ! 222,536,356 fXP Level 282

Top Players:
# 44 - Allrogh

# 90 alphaveron

Yup, christmas is coming. Everybody has much spare time i guess and HCS is giving us ... um... yeah... champions. Errhm, not quite what i expected. Lets see how many players drop out during this time, getting bored at EOC. Hmm BG talked about the new content arriving not before january, because of all the champs and new things in SS2. And he said something about new features arriving SS2 before christmas (hey, at least before new content), im wondering what that will be. PvP maps for slaughterfest? Extended possibilities for Behemoths? Hmmm...

And the new champions?
At first i was...

Hey all who dont read this,
i think it became obvious that SS2 is changing a bit in the last days. The participation of HCS in the forums, namely Biggrim has risen tremendously. And we got some "updates":

1. Repair kits
   
2. Rise in credit drop rate
   
3. Rise in XP gain per entity killed
   
4. Removal of inventing, step by step
   
5. Obviously messing up the Image server...
   

All in the name of getting more players to SS2 and actually have them stay there. I dont know....

Hello all who still read this,
as you may or may have not read on our website (you know, where this blog was hosted before i decided to continue the blog here on our forums. I hope i get some more input from all of you and our visitors. Yes - you can comment here, you - member and you - visitor without getting punished

In fact, i would love to get some feedback.

Yeah, so, what happened?

DrgnMastr...

Now i wonder what is the difference between a blog and a forum in this ... forum??
