Chapter 180: Distance and Speed
In the next few days, the old demon has been soaking in the battlefield to do tasks and brush up the honor points of the camp.
They stayed in Tayarez City for the time being, because only in this city, the players of the Silver Maple Leaf Mercenary Regiment could go to the Shadow Canyon to catch the ghost wolf.
After learning that the old demon got a superb mount, the celebrities in the world and the cold stream were very envious, but when they learned that the old demon's nightmare ghost wolf was called Black Mountain, these two girls also sprayed...... As more and more players join the battlefield, it becomes difficult for a single person to do combat missions, but now that the selection period announced by the game company is very close, if you want to rely on non-combat missions to obtain faction honor points, it is undoubtedly too slow, so as a last resort, many players participate in combat missions, forming a strange cycle.
In fact, there are many players who know their strength very well, and they don't necessarily come to brush up on the faction mission to participate in the tryouts, but for the purple battlefield suit!
Although it is not easy to get together a set of suits, an eight-piece set of equipment, the honor value of the camp alone will cost tens of thousands, but for players, a complete set of 40-level battlefield suits may be more powerful than a set of 50-level blue equipment, and with the production rate of purple equipment, not every player is likely to get a purple suit, and now there are so many purple suits in front of him, only players need to use the camp honor points in exchange, compared with the ethereal boss luck, Naturally, players are willing to change what they see in front of them.
Even if there are lucky players who can play purple equipment, but don't forget, the equipment dropped by the system is random, it may be good, it may be bad, where can it be compared with the current battlefield suit?
It is precisely because of this that with more and more players, many people will choose to join the team of other players when they receive a task and are ready to go out of the city to do it, not only for safety reasons, but also because, if you follow the team, every time a teammate kills a player from a hostile camp, others can get a 0.1 camp honor value, as long as you can kill 10 people, then the players in the team will get a little extra camp honor value, which can be described as a lot of benefits.
The girls of the old demon and the silver maple leaf studio are relatively fixed in online time, so there are many players in the group, and they will choose to wait until the old demon and they come, and act with them.
However, the old demon also knows that the number of players in the silver maple leaf is still small, and now it is not possible to upgrade to the level 3 mercenary group, and even if it is upgraded, the players recruited are all players who gradually enter the game later, and the level is relatively low, unlike those old guilds, even if the members of the family cannot join the mercenary group for a while, they will choose to wait, and wait for the mercenary group to increase in size before entering, in that case, the level of the players who join the player will not be too different.
This is the gap between the new guild and the established guild.
Due to the small number of players, when the old demon leads the team, he also tries to bypass those large piles of players to reduce the chance of conflict, but if he encounters a small team of players from the opposing camp, he will choose to eat them.
This is the real law of the battlefield...... The game is no exception.
But even so, the old demon they have also appeared many times in danger, large guilds stationed in the battlefield, more and more, they have a silver maple leaf incomparable numerical advantage, several times, the old demon they have encountered a large guild of more than 1,000 people in the battlefield action, if it weren't for the old demon to be careful, he has already sent assassins in advance to reconnoiter around, it is estimated that he will crash headlong, at that time, the old demon and their hundreds of people will lose a lot...... Therefore, during this time, in addition to brushing up the daily battlefield honor value and going to the training ground every day to exercise skill proficiency, the old demon also stepped up his plan.
That's ...... Train your team of archers!
The twenty-four ghost wolf eggs he took from Yang Yongle, the old demon selected twenty-four hunters with higher level and very good equipment from among the players of Silver Maple Leaf to start his training plan.
Although the number of people is a little less, in fact, the old demon is also doing experiments, so he doesn't pursue the number of people too much.
The reason why this idea came about was because the old demon thought of it from the speed of the ghost wolf's movement.
Although compared to the nightmare ghost wolf of the old demon, the speed of ordinary ghost wolves is much slower, but in fact, the speed of 20 meters per second of ghost wolves is already quite fast.
The player's own running and moving speed is 8 meters per second, and the inferior horses bought in the store are 12 meters per second, and the Tiger Cavalry Regiment of the Burning Blood Guild I saw last time, the old demon also found the data, which is 16 meters per second of movement speed, that is, twice the player's speed, compared with the ghost wolf, the speed is still a little worse.
What you want to take advantage of is that this speed is poor...... In the southeast direction outside the city of Tayares, there is a falling plain, where there is a monster monster that also moves very fast, the hobbit centaur, with a moving speed of about 16 meters per second, and the old demon is practicing here with a team of hunter archers at this moment.
It is undeniable that the old demon seems to regard the blood-burning Tiger Cavalry Regiment as an imaginary enemy.
The level of the centaur,It's only level 24,At present,It's already a relatively low-level monster.,Few players come here to level up.,Because most players at this level,Are willing to get a copy.,Both equipment,Experience is also good.,And for players,Centaurs are high-speed moving monsters,Someone must attract firepower.,And then encircle and suppress,Otherwise,Single players generally can't run away.,Soon will be caught up by monsters.,Hunter players can't fly kites or anything here., So on the whole plain, the player team is only sparse, and occasionally I see one or two teams, but they are only here to do tasks or something, leaving the old demon with a lot of room to move.
It is precisely because of such a relatively large moving space that the old demon will choose here.
It may be because the movement speed of the mount is quite fast, so the system is stuck relatively dead for this one, even if it is a free mode player like the old demon, it is impossible to realize the action of fighting on the mount, only the warrior profession with glory talent points, after investing a large number of talent points in the talent skill of "riding battle", can fight on the mount, but relatively, due to a large number of talent points added to the glory talent, their defense ability and skill attack power are compared with normal infantry warriors, much lower.
The only thing worth relying on for the warriors with the glory talent is their high mobility, and they are actually like the ancient light cavalry.
Of course, if you want to become a heavy cavalry, it is not impossible, provided that your equipment is good enough and your level is high enough, so that you can invest more talent skill points and increase your ability.
Having said so much, I actually want to point out a problem, the hunter profession can't ride on the mount to draw a bow and shoot arrows.
Therefore, combined with the high speed of the ghost wolf, the old demon thought of a more alternative way, that is, to get off the mount and then attack.
After explaining the general meaning to everyone, looking at their appearance as if they understood or not, the old demon was also a little helpless, so he had to arrange the numbers for the twenty-four hunter players, let them remember their respective numbers, and then listen to the old demon's command.
"Attention everyone!" The old demon opened up a separate channel for the mercenary group channel, pulled all the twenty-four players into the channel, and then shouted in the team channel: "All mounts." ”
This is the benefit of the mercenary group channel, which is conducive to command.
After hearing the old demon's shout, these hunter players also reacted quickly, summoning their ghost wolf mounts one after another, and then choosing to mount their horses.
After the last hunter player finished the action, the old demon looked at the system time, 7 seconds!
At this time, the old demon shook his head for a while, it was too slow.
This is a game, and the players are just ordinary players, so the old demon didn't force them to train harshly like soldiers, so he just wanted to make them understand their intentions through demonstrations.
Looking around, the old demon found the refresh point of a few centaurs not far away, and visually inspected it, the distance between the old demon and the hunter player, about 300 yards, that is, about 312 meters, this is the old demon combined with the gaze distance, and the coordinates of everyone on the miniature map, the error should not be too big, at most two meters.
"Follow me!" The old demon also summoned the Black Mountain, rolled over and rode on its back, shouted to the hunter players, and then took the lead and ran towards the group of centaurs.
When there were still more than 100 meters away from the centaur, the old demon stopped, and after waiting for a while, the hunter players followed.
"Commander, your mount is too fast!" Several hunter players looked enviously at the black mountain where the old demon was riding, and said to the old demon with a smile.
The old demon smiled, didn't say anything, but pointed to the centaur in front of him, and said to everyone: "Do you see it?" There are five centaurs there, and they're scattered, if it were you, how would you usually cause trouble? ”
"If you lead one, it's easy to do, just shoot an arrow at him!" One Hunter player replied, "But if you want to lure them all, you'll need to wander around too much and break into their warning range." ”
"Not bad!" The old demon nodded and said, "Before I came, I personally tested it, and the warning range of the centaur is 53 meters!" If you want to lure all five centaurs over, you have to move closer to them, at least about 45 meters away from them. ”
"But ......" the old demon suddenly changed his words and said, "Don't forget, you are hunters, and long-range attacks are your strength, I believe you have all added the talent of increasing range, right?" ”
The hunters all nodded.
"That's right, if I'm not mistaken...... Your maximum range should be 100 meters, which is just the shooting range of your sniper skills, isn't it? The old demon asked again.
Everyone nodded again, but they didn't understand why the old demon would say this.
"Have you calculated how much time it will take for a centaur to get close to you if you're standing on top of its maximum range and using your sniper skills on it to get its attention?" The old demon stared at them and said, "With a movement speed of 16 meters per second, it only takes about 5 and a half seconds for it to rush in front of you and launch an attack on you!" ”
"If it's at the speed at which you summoned the mount and finally rode it, then you can be sure that you won't be able to get back on the mount and run before the centaur rushes over!"
