NO roleplay, NO standing in a line. Straight Action!
REQUIREMENTS:
•
- Enemy Addon installed and working
Swift Assist as a backup
Discord installed and capable of listening to Squad Leader
Depending on the day of the week we will also run this Patrol weekdays at 7.15 pm – 8.15 pm. Right before Altdorf EU primetime.
Also I wrote almost each weekday. The mentioned timeslots are the time in which I go online regularly. On Wednesday we run the dwarf Warband in the Evening and on some weekdays I might get a working appointment, or I'm ill, or need to sleep me hangover off. But if you look into the discord and see me in the Empire Voice channel I will run the Pistolier Patrol.
The Group is open for all Empire lvl 16+ Witchhunters and Warriorpriests regardless of guild membership.
If you have a BW or Kotbs you can of course also join. But the fun part is to drop stealth with 6 WH simultaneously and see their faces drop.
So we would like it if you join on your low level WH or WP even if you have a high level Kotbs ready.
Group composition and such is coordinated in the Bitterstone/Averland Greatswords Discord.

Also we will run some motivational music while we are at it.
Primary Mission Objective:
Roam RvR and lay ambushes. The group is not really SC fit but we do them anyways and you can do some fun stuff in small scale RvR. Goal is not to push zone lock but to harass and get some BOs. Do that for an hour and then everyone can go on with their own stuff.
Also there is the same goal as on the Sniper Squad: “It doesn’t matter if we get steamrolled by a Warband, or a good destro six men. IF we get one kill.” We are the dancing, laughing scum on this server in Yellow and Black Capes.
Builds and such:
I will not fool you. I have run all my active Warhammer Online career on a RDPS Engi. Jumping on a WH glascannon MDPS is new for me, as also is melee at all. My WH is currently lvl 31 in crappy gear. But that doesn’t stop me.
As you may have seen on the Sniper Squad movies, our focus is fun and immersion. To give us the feeling on being part of a Warhammer Regiment in the game and doing our stuff.
“I’m a Witchhunter Expert meself”:
I’m not an WH expert. But if you consider yourself one, please join up and teach us some tricks, places, hideouts. For builds please checkout the #pistolier Channel in the Discord and show us some stuff.
After checking some videos/threads I will go on the right Tree Path of Judgment with some Feinted Positioning-Pistol whip-Torment-Torment-Burn Away lies.
Ofc a second WH with some “Punishing the false” to get in some Healdebuff might be also good. Like in the Sniper Squad having a super build is allways great, having a friend on the same Target is even better. I haven’t checked any AoE builds so far, but at the moment I think we would melt vs any decent 2/2/2 Setup or even a warband. So I don’t think we need any AoE setup at the moment.
Lore:
I will refer to you as Pistoliers. These are noble sons not ready for one of the knightly Orders yet. So they run in groups of light cavalry armed with plentiful pistols.

So not much talk about burning witches and such stuff. We are Witchhunters by class only. Apart from that we are the brash young fools on horses. Ah yes, and we will do this under the flag of the Averland Greatswords. So basic colors are Verminbrown (dark yellow) and Gryphon black. These colors are only to put if you like. No color scheme will be enforced.
Macros:
No thematical group without some catchy macros.
I will build some group lead macros. Some of them in mixed to German to bring in the empire feeling.
You can build your own of course while we charge into combat.
/say For the Empire!
/say For Marius Leitdorf!
/say For Sigmar!
is all good to me.
But for the group itself we will use me old Regimental Credo.
The leader, usually I on Yva, will call:
/say Without Fear!
You will answer:
/say Forward!
That’s it, and then we charge forward.
Command Macros:
Only for me to have them at some local point as my Macro List is exploding.
/say Pistoliers! ... Aufsitzen!
/wb MOUNT UP!
/say Pistoliers! ... Sammeln!
/wb BACK, BACK, BACK!
/stomp
/say Pistoliers! ... Halt!
/wb STOP, STOP, STOP!
/halt
/say Pistoliers! ...Angriff!
/wb PUSH, PUSH, PUSH!
/charge
/say
/wb
