Return of Reckoning

Hey all. We all love this game and what RoR has become. Unfortunately, there seems to be no page where players can read all the active mechanics for RoR RVR Campaigns.

Someone posted the mechanics that were active when WAR was live, which you can read here:
https://returnofreckoning.com/forum/vie ... e_vignette

But what about RoR? What is active and inactive? It would be a huge help to many of us including new players. To have a list of the current mechanics active on the servers. Once we have that, then when patches make changes, we will know what is being changed.

So if anyone knows where this can be found on the forums or anywhere else, please let us know below.


Something like what is below (an except from one of the WAR patch notes, found at link above)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Realm vs. Realm
- All Fortress Lords have been adjusted to ensure that they provide the intended level of challenge. This includes updates to their abilities, damage, and
defenses.
- Reinforcement Guards for Keeps from captured Battlefield Objectives will now have a title that reflects where they have come from.
- The Order patrols near Festenplatz will now patrol further away to allow room for players to move without potentially drawing the patrol into the Battlefield
Objective battle.
- Keep Lords based on pet-using careers will now summon pets in a manner similar to their player counterparts.
- Battlefield Objectives in every tier and pairing have been fortified with newer, more realm-specific palisades and other types of barricades.
- Siege Oil Pads on High Elf and Dark Elf keeps have been moved slightly so the splash hits better and the oil is attackable properly from below.
- The patrolling guards for Wilhem's Fist have had their path slightly adjusted to ensure they do not attempt to overrun Siege Pads or other objects in area.
- The patrolling Order guards for Fangbreaker Keep will now path properly around the Keep.

I have the updated Order RVR Manual. (satire. plz dont ban me)


run around collect boxes, avoid enemy at all costs.
always listen to your wb leader. especially if they are only trying to evade the enemy and go in completly the wrong places. the more popular they are, the more you need to listen to them.

Never watch your backend, if they are getting flanked, just let them die its their fault.
Dont ever engage, unless its something like 2vs1 odds and youve suprised them from flankside.


if the enemy looks like they might be attacking. start heading to the keep as quickly as possible. the trick is to get there before anyone else, then start announcing everyone should come quickly! the enemy is going to attack!

When going to keep dont clear a way, or make the path accessible to anyone else.
GET TO KEEP AT ALL COSTS. even if it means flying to another zone just to sneak around, or take the pve trail!

step 1.
Once you are at the keep, just sit around and do nothing for 20mins while enemy gets ram. (they will figure it out. give them time)
jump around and stuff for another 10min, while they destroy door.

Never use posterns at keep to push out, always remain on the walls.
I repeat. stay on walls at all times. this is very important

once first door is down. Get to the 2nd wall ASAP. repeat step 1


when enemy destroys 2nd door. DO not setup downstairs, DO not hold lord room!
go to 3rd floor atleast 5 minutes before the door is actually down.
all the way up there! find a good place you can drop down and use whatever means you can to survive/get away, find next zone. repeat.

if you have a wb, or you want to seem like youre awesome. just stay up on 3rd, press some abilities. but mainly try not to get in the enemy sights directly. just make it seem like youre pwning.
once all are dead. command them on how brave they all were and how close it was, we just didnt have the numbers. maybe next time.

The tip to the fort you mentioned is the first I heard. I will try it right away and hope it works.

Beside all the nonsense this is particular right, listen to your wb leader, YOU joint his warband, so follow or leave.

But it seems like you have a lot of expertise how a real warband should act, maybe try leading a warband yourself, but don't be angry if people don't listen....
