“The pit-kill tactic was developed along with the concept of “”reinforcements.”” In fact, strictly speaking, before the appearance of “”reinforcements,”” the pit-kill tactic could also be used, but the benefits were not as great as later, so it was not common.”
“As for whether the trap kill strategy would reduce the fun of the game, it was obvious. After all, for the party who was being killed, this was a completely one-sided battle. Under such circumstances, the individual had no power to fight back at all.”
!!
The key was that Chen Mo added a new mechanism to this version of World of Warcraft The battlefield leader could choose to turn off the resurrection mechanism of a certain Cemetery.
“In the original Wrath of the Lich King version, although Alterac Valley had a backup system, the dead players would be automatically resurrected in the nearest graveyard. The only way to change graves was to run souls.”
“However, it would definitely waste a lot of time if one wanted to run their soul to another graveyard. Most players were lazy and didn’t know how to do it, which was why many players hated the ‘trap kill’ tactic.”
“After adding this mechanism,””pit-kill”” wasn’t an unsolvable strategy anymore, and Chen Mo couldn’t rely on it to get more reinforcements.”
“Therefore, this version of Mount Orianna’s pit-kill tactic was not as invincible as many people thought. It could only be used in situations where there was a huge gap in strength between the two sides.”
“In other words, only the national team’s jungler team could play a pit kill.”
“To complete the trap kill, three conditions must be met at the same time”
“First, the team had to crush the enemy in a head-on battle and maintain a huge gap in combat power when they pushed to the enemy’s graveyard. This was the only way to block the mob who had just resurrected at the resurrection point.”
“Second, they did not have any noob players or snitches to do the battlefield mission.”
“Third, the enemy leader did not care about the people who were killed.”
“If he couldn’t complete any of the three conditions, he wouldn’t be able to do the ‘trap kill’.”
“Many players were scammed when they entered Mount Olympus because these players were often solo players. When they met the national team, their mentality would explode. However, this wasn’t a fair and equal battle in the first place, and it didn’t reflect the true way of playing the battlefield in Mount Orianna.”
“Therefore, the “”trap-kill”” tactic was actually a very good tactic. Including the concept of “”reinforcements,”” they all highlighted the design line of “”killing the enemy’s living strength.”””
“A decisive factor in a war was the resources of both sides. These resources included strategic materials, equipment, soldiers, supply lines, and so on. Some people said that “”war is burning money.”” This was the truth. On the big battlefields like Mount Orso and the Conqueror’s Island, there was a need to limit the resources of both sides, otherwise there would be an endless situation.”
“In reality, the outcome of a battle would be decided when one side ran out of ammunition and supplies. Due to the special nature of the game, players would be resurrected after death. Therefore, once a situation like the “”bridge defense”” occurred, it meant that both sides had unlimited resources. The attacker with a certain advantage could not end the battle, which was an abnormal and unhealthy way of playing the game.”
“It was like a MOBA game. If the attacker had already broken through the defender’s three lanes and the two sides were still in a stalemate, even if the battle lasted for hours, it was obviously a failure in the game design.”
“The concept of “”reinforcements”” on the battlefield was equivalent to the resources of both sides. The resources (reinforcements) of the Alliance and the Horde were limited, and whoever ran out of them first would lose. Therefore, eliminating the enemy’s living forces had become one of the tactics.”
“If the Alliance and the Horde were evenly matched, then ao Shan’s battle wouldn’t just be a “”trap kill.”” If the Alliance wanted to have a trap-kill strategy, it wasn’t just A random attack at the Horde’s graveyard. The Alliance’s battlefield commander needed to make a series of preparations, and this preparation was the essence of the trap-kill strategy.”
The ‘trap kill’ itself was just the result of this series of preparations.
“The commander of the battlefield had to consider,””where should I choose to fight the main forces of the Horde?”” What kind of formation should they use to fight head-on? [Do you want to split up to harass them?] Should we send a small force to circle around? Which graveyard should he choose to kill? Should the tribe’s Tower be uprooted? Should the captains of the tribe organize a team to fight?”
It was obvious that this series of operations required very strict conditions. The reason Chen Mo was able to lead the Alliance to complete this was because of the huge difference in their commanding abilities.
“The two mines were constantly increasing the Alliance’s reinforcements, while the main forces of the Thunderspear graveyard were constantly being killed. The gap between the reinforcements of the two sides was constantly closing. Many tribes were surprised to find that the number of reinforcements from the Alliance was still slowly increasing.”
“However, the tribe leader quickly realized the dangerous situation they were in. After being killed two or three times, he immediately gave a decisive order,””””I’ve closed the resurrection point in the Thunderspear graveyard. Everyone, gather at the frost graveyard immediately!”””
No tactic was perfect. It was easy to avoid being killed. All they had to do was change the cemetery.
“At this time, the stone furnace graveyard had already been opened by the Alliance. The Horde chose to close the lightning Spear graveyard, and the people on the front line automatically returned to the snow graveyard to resurrect. However, the gap between the two sides was still huge. The key was that the Horde hadn’t lost a single tower, while the Alliance had already lost two.”
“Seeing that the Horde revived in the Thunderspear Cemetery was gone, Chen Zhao said in the battlefield channel,””””Alright, everyone get on your horses and get ready to go.”””
“The Alliance thieves in the Horde were still trying to harass and occupy the towers. After the Horde players went back and forth to put out the fire a few times, they finally managed to defend the towers near the snow graveyard. However, they had no choice but to split up their forces to occupy the towers, especially many high-level hunters and mages with good equipment who were forced to defend their homes.”
“Because of the convenient party voice chat, the Alliance’s stealth parties tried their best to communicate through voice chat. In addition, Druids had a certain healing ability, so the Horde couldn’t fight with fewer people.”
“Although the first tower, second tower, and snow graveyard had all been taken back by the Horde, the East and West towers had never been taken back. The countdown to the destruction of the East and West towers was still ticking away.”
“The tribe’s battlefield channel was in a mess. A few tribe hunters kept typing “”Someone come quickly! There was at least one team of stealth jobs here! It seems like there are two teams, we can’t handle them!”””
“At this time, a part of the Horde’s main force was preparing to gather near the snow Cemetery. A small part of them were still trapped in the Thunderspear Cemetery and were just preparing to move to the snow Cemetery to resurrect. There was also a large group of people gathered near the snow sentry towers and sentry towers, afraid that the Alliance would come to steal the flag.”
“However, the Alliance’s stealth team had already sneaked into the Frostwolf Fort. The two teams were gathered together, determined to get the items from the Frostwolf Sentry tower.”
“A thief’s ability to strike first and their individual combat power were not to be underestimated, especially in the narrow terrain of the tower. There was basically no possibility of being kited. With several thieves each taking on a backstab, even a plate armor Class would not be able to last long.”
“Moreover, even if the hunters had flare that could expose the thieves in stealth, the thieves could just rush up and gang up on them.”
“In this situation, the only way was to fight as a group. The tribe also found a full team to charge in, but for the tribe leader, it was difficult to decide how many people to send back.”
“At this moment, someone pointed at the war plain and said,””””The Alliance is already here!”””
“Everyone took a look and realized that the Alliance’s main forces had indeed gathered on the war Plains. After the tribes that were killed changed their graveyards, the Alliance didn’t just stand there and wait. They opened up their graveyards and rushed to the war Plains.”
“The tribe leader thought for a moment,””two teams, go back and get the tower back!”” The rest of you, follow me and guard the outside of the snow Cemetery. “””
