Leading On F2p - A Few Tips., To help us all improve. Options

[@Brian]

Ok just a few simple tips to help us all improve at leading on F2P.

Calling A Fall In

Ok if your going to call a fall in theres a few things you need to make sure.

1) If your a binder, DONT call a fall in. Its suicide, and you CANT tank it.
2) Make sure the enemy isnt stupidly near you. You'll be killed faster then people can fall in.
3) Make sure your fall in is in a reasonable location in relation to the main group of Di. In other words, make sure you're near the biggest group of Di.
4) Call it a well known location. Dont call it west of gds, south of gate, etc. Call it somewhere everyone knows. E.G - Middle of Gds, Members Gate, East Tree, West Tree, etc.
5) You MUST spam in game when you call a fall in. Some of you say nothing in game. People behind you arent going to spam. Just keep spamming the words "follow" or something. Some of you depend on TS too heavily here. You MUST talk in RS.
6) Be ready to tank it. Have prayer on, and be ready to fucking book it. Run in, call a name, and get the fuck out of there. Then come back.
7) Hold your location for at least 45 seconds, give as many people as possible a have to get there.
8) DONT keep run on, use ctrl for run when you see the enemy.

KO Unit's

1) Just before someone dies, type "follow" and step out, aim to move about 2/3 squares north of where the enemy died. As soon as he dies, start spamming "follow". If you have enough time, and know which way your going to go, say "follow north" etc.
2) Be smart about your targets that you choose. If someone books it, know when your beat, say "stop!" "back!" "dont!". Then start spamming "follow" again as hard as you can. Make sure your target is visible, someone half way down a pile will take alot longer to kill.
3) If you see someone extremely near you get binded, shift to the target as quickly as possible. Avoid pretyping a name, as it'll make you committed to a target. But you need to try give at least 3-5 seconds notice of who your going to pile.

Tanking

1) You gotta learn to tank as well as you can. Click your food slowly, and eat high hp. Dont take risks, safe it non stop, over eat if you must.
2) Switch between mage and melee constantly so you dont get binded.
3) Run as far as possible, and take as many of the enemy with you as you can.

If theres anything else you feel could be included, or needs to be, let me know.

Prety much do most anyway, but I do rely on teamspeak to much and don't type enough follow's in game, and I like the ctrl tip.

One thing I could think off is that when you got a ko pile going, you down a guy and theres like 5 enemeys around you and you just know half the people are going to try to do a quick transition and everyone is going to be unorginized, you got to attack the next guy FIRST and call it in game before everyone else run's off (but obviously make sure the old target is dead)

i do most of those things but i will work on doing them all, when fall ins are usually called no one seems to care about spamming and this is a big issue theres maybe 4-5 people spamming in say a 50 opt pile

This topic is extremely helpful, and all warlords/generals should stick true to that order. However, when we're just all over the place, don't hesitate to call a fall-in - just make sure there aren't more than 2! Even then, you shouldn't make your own ko unit but just look for the other group. Preferably we have 1 big ko unit all the time, but when this isn't possible, gather as many DI possible and lead them to the main group.
