I dont have anything to say about this ballista tournament, but i didnt think people would be posting a lot here. So, I wanted to tell a cool story about leveling my ranger in ghelsba:
I actuall discovered this by accident, i was standing up on the river bank when i looked down and noticed i could see the ghelsba pugils in the water. So, i thought "i wonder if i could hit one from here?". well, I managed to hit one and pissed it off pretty bad. It had to go up the bank on the opposite side, come across the bridge, and then make its way up the zig-zag ramp in order to get to me. I was able to get off enough shots to drop it before it got to the top of the ramp. Needless to say, i kept doing this for the next hour or so and got some sweet xp since they were checking as even match. Every now and then, an unsuspecting orc would wonder up within my range on the other side of the river bank, and i would employ the same tactic. So, if your planning on leveling your ranger in or near ghelsba, feel free to employ this field-tested tactic.
Anybody else ever do something like this when leveling their ranger?
P.S. Good luck to everybody on the Ballista tourny.
