Hello Vic, I play on the NA server and I've always liked PvP but never had anyone to learn from. I've been playing for 4 years and have always received hate for being bad, which made me isolate myself in gathering. Your content encourages me to try learning again, and I’m learning a lot-I feel like a beginner. My primary language is Brazilian Portuguese, and your accent makes it easy for me to understand your videos [I turn on subtitles xD]. Keep making your videos; they help me a lot!
[I would like to add that I am a Bloodletter enthusiast. If possible, could you make a video about it if you get the chance? I noticed you placed it in rank F, which made me a bit curious as to why.]
@@daniloesoojignore them mate. Most players died a lot before starting to kill. You'll get better over time. I have a death ratio that will put anyone to shame (still to see someone with higher) but I learn from every death and now can beat average players with +200 IP over me, it's a long process that not everyone acknowledges.
If you type this stuff after 4 years playing and you ask why blood letter is F you clearly belong to the gatherer category Watch some more videos Vic is great Eugene is great too for axe vids Watch godcall if I wanna be a carving slave If you wanna play daggers deathgiver watch iowf or won This game is hard but watching videos helps Try playing corrupteds before going into mists
blood letter has lost much of it's strenght and popularity but i am sure that you can find the same qualities you like in bloodletter in other weapons maybe bracers would be good for you high mobility and high burst damage, you culd experiment on other weapons if you want i am sure you'll find something that you'll like :) and don't mind people hating on you they always hate even when they lose haha
I mean, €12 per hour is still far better than $7,25 USD/hr (the minimum wage in US), especially when you consider that the US wage doesn't account for any benefits such as healthcare, high quality public transport, or low-cost education.
VicZane dropping a new video every few days? It's a good time to be an Albion player right now! Excellent educational content as always, it's almost as if I can feel my IP increasing just by watching this
Love your vids and have watched every single one of them up to this one. But now, I think people would also really like to know how to play against spears in a new PvP guide video.
11:12 the problem i can also see here is that he looks at the average ip instead of calculating the ip himself, he got fooled by ur t4 flat undead cape that significantly decreased ur ave ip lmao
I love running 4.0 normal quality undead capes on t8-9 for that reason. I have really good specs so otherwise I might scare people away. The cape lowers my average ip by as much as 65-70 which makes me look lower ip when my actual ip is like 1520 in t8 and 1640 in t9 or so. Helps me get profitable fights (or fights in the first place)
@VicZaneGaming if you do, please stream on TH-cam so I can enjoy ad free and also watch the vods. I listen to streams all day while at work, so you'd have my view.
Hi, Vic! I saw that some players on 1h spear use omlet for kiting and sandwich for brawl. How do you think, is it alternative for eel stew and snapper? Cause if compare t7 omlet and eel stew t8 , it much cheaper and gave more cd, same for sandwich t8 and snapper 5.1 or t7.
Eel and snapper are simply stronger. Only use ome and sandwich on low tier cheap builds. Even then I recommend beef stew over ome. Only situation you may use ome is as a roaming food that you have active all the time and then swap to PvP food for fights
Yeah I'm experimenting with custom HUDs and so far this one feels good. I wish it was possible to make the skill buttons unclickable to avoid misclicks.
14:50 carving there was so dumb. It was actually kinda a spicy situation for your when your Ava cape proc’ed while u used assassin jacket (wait for after your Ava procs to use assassin) and he could have pretty good chances and even get value from his inferno by just brawling bc you wasted your armor but he runs like an idiot 😂
Next patch they intend to revert back the potion/food changes, 10 seconds cooldown, what do you think we're gonna have a better time at hunting players or a harder time at running from sweat lords?
Was just reading the patch notes and I really don't like it. I think it will make everything slower again because most people won't be ready to fight as fast, taking time to choose potion. And you're right about invis potions - participating in any PvP or Mists objectives will be riskier because you can't just swap to invis if a bad situation arises which favours higher IP players the most but also is likely to make everybody a little bit more careful, leading to less PvP. Even more people running around with pre-equipped invis potions also means that fewer of them will accept fights even against same tier opponents.
@VicZaneGaming Well I hope they will take into account our feedback on AOCP and consider not changing again, I understand why(for example for open world camps) but that would still hurt the overal pvp experience, 10 seconds it's usually the difference between life and death in albion.
Some of the same ideas apply such as having the flexibility of different W spells, builds and ways to approach fights but in general I would treat them like clearly different weapons. Daybreaker brawls better because you don't lose your stacks so there's less need on average to kite. Daybreaker E is slow and easy to predict and/or react to which makes it more effective close-range and not so great for closing the gap. The built-in purge does create a lot of new options for fights though! The 1-h Spear feels more agile and active while daybreaker makes for a bit more static and slower experience!
Hello Vic, very nice video as always ! Could you explain to me the usage of the breci cape ? Bcs I feel like its way more usefull with an offensive helmet, otherwise you will got 2 defensives wich is pretty useless no ?
You're right that stacking defensives is usually not good and that's why brecilien cape is only used for quite specific builds and situations. However, you want a helmet with it that you can use whenever you want/need to proc the cape - best options being guardian helmet or hunter hood. If you use it with an offensive helmet it will be very awkward because you'll either use your helmet normally and waste your cape at a random moment OR you'll have to intentionally waste your helmet for the cape to proc.
hey vic hope you are well, could you make a video a about foods ? and where to use and that kind of stuff that would help a loot of people out there that are new at pvp like me. thanks
Please make another video of this but based on ava gloves, I'm having a hard time dealing with them, it's either they out trade me or run away if I'm at the advantage
What settings for combat? I want to loot while incombat but I can't, sometimes i want to stack by hitting some marmots and I can't hit them and i cant lock on the enemy
I have a habit of buying specter jacket sometimes because it used to be the cheapest IP per silver Inferno shield back on the City and Server where I made the calculations. But in reality, you are better off using assassin jacket, mistwalker jacket or jacket of tenacity because all 3 of them give you a very useful alternative spell to use in some situations instead of inferno!
Hello, As always a wonderful video! I also wanted to tell you that no matter how much I watch your videos I can't kill anyone.... hehehehehehehehehehe. It is clear that I am one-armed. I would like to tell you again that I love your videos.
One thing I really like about Carving VS Spear is that it's not so simple or straightforward for either one. Both can kite, both can brawl and it comes down to outplaying the specific opponent in front of you.

Watch some more videos
Vic is great
Eugene is great too for axe vids
Watch godcall if I wanna be a carving slave
If you wanna play daggers deathgiver watch iowf or won
This game is hard but watching videos helps
Try playing corrupteds before going into mists

I don't stream at the moment. I've been thinking about fitting a bit of streaming into my schedule though so we'll see!

thats a pretty cool hud layout

@@VicZaneGaming thats exactly what i want too! nice vid as always

Question, does your spear guide also apply to daybreaker and xan you tell me what's rhe difference between the two weapons except the purge?
Some of the same ideas apply such as having the flexibility of different W spells, builds and ways to approach fights but in general I would treat them like clearly different weapons.
Daybreaker brawls better because you don't lose your stacks so there's less need on average to kite. Daybreaker E is slow and easy to predict and/or react to which makes it more effective close-range and not so great for closing the gap.

that would help a loot of people out there that are new at pvp like me. thanks
On the to-do list, thanks for reminding me!
Please make another video of this but based on ava gloves, I'm having a hard time dealing with them, it's either they out trade me or run away if I'm at the advantage
I'll think about it. Best counter by far is mistwalker jacket but without that it can be tricky yeah.
What settings for combat? I want to loot while incombat but I can't, sometimes i want to stack by hitting some marmots and I can't hit them and i cant lock on the enemy
Go to settings and turn off forced combat mode
why not other leather jackets there is something better for specter ?
I have a habit of buying specter jacket sometimes because it used to be the cheapest IP per silver Inferno shield back on the City and Server where I made the calculations. But in reality, you are better off using assassin jacket, mistwalker jacket or jacket of tenacity because all 3 of them give you a very useful alternative spell to use in some situations instead of inferno!
Man I only wanted to save up for the carving sword as I thought it looked cool…rip
Hello,
As always a wonderful video! I also wanted to tell you that no matter how much I watch your videos I can't kill anyone.... hehehehehehehehehehe. It is clear that I am one-armed.
I would like to tell you again that I love your videos.
I love the positive vibes :) As long as you are having some fun with PvP, I'm happy! Even if you don't kill a lot of people.
nice vid :)
Carving cheat sheet:
Daybreaker, spear, shadowcaller, lifecurse, curse skull, q1 dg , q1 fire - kite
All others - brawl or swap to parry strike
😂
One thing I really like about Carving VS Spear is that it's not so simple or straightforward for either one. Both can kite, both can brawl and it comes down to outplaying the specific opponent in front of you.
@@VicZaneGamingtrue, Ive tried switching to w1 on carving to match spear brawl, not sure if I like it tho
Curse skull is ez if you use mistwalker jacket
they wouldn't expect that for sure but woudln't they just kite after as you 'll have less catching potential ?
@@mrizal4233 its the grudge brawl + 4 q stacks thats the problem, mw counters E merc tho
Ohhh man love to see carving dead 😂😂
come on vic! let me make silver 😭😭
Cabbage soup is overrated just use catfish
