A small PvP guide! by Cxnfirmed June 8, 2014 at 12:06 PM UTC

Hello, everyone!

I sort of decided to make a small guide on how to improve your PvP skill. Its gonna be an easy explained guide for everyone, even if you are new to PvP, or considered a "pro" at PvP. I'm gonna mention a few tactics, and how to improve your PvP skill in general.

Now, lets get started:

Strafing: Strafing is probably the best way to kill your opponent on open fields. Basically, the concept of strafing is to move around your enemy in multiple ways while dealing damage to him, while you take no/little damage yourself. It requires rapid movement, a good aim and fast clicking. Strafing is a tactic that takes lots or practice to learn, but once you got the hang of it, its deadly as … uh. Anyways...
Critical hits: Critical hits causes more damage to your opponent. Not only to their health, but also to the armor they are wearing.To critical hit your opponent you jump in the air and hit him while falling down! Note that, you can't crit a person if you're going up, you have to be falling down.
Block hitting: Most of you already know what it is, and its very OP in server like Avicus where you have no enchants or speed. (This is why I mostly use scout in Nexus, then I can strafe better). Basically, pretty much everything is useless against block hitting when you don't have any enchants or potions. For those who doesn't know what block hitting is, you just right and left click at the same time. The blocking will reduce the damage you take, and the hit will do more damage on your opponent. 
The bow/Archery: Using your bow.
General PvP stuff: There is a lot of things that can make you a good pvp'er. People say you only need to click fast and have a good aim. Its so much more:
Update log:
-Added more info about strafing
-Added "Don't be cold while pvp'ing"
-Added "In close fight" at "Archery"
-Added "Variate your strafing's" in "Strafing"
-Added "Your FOV matter's" in "Archery"
-
-
-

Thank you for reading, hope it helped! I could go more into detail, but is a basic, small guide so I decided not to. Tell me if you are wondering about something or have any questions about the tactics. Also comment if I should add something. :)

CreeperJoe62 June 8, 2014 at 1:06 PM UTC

Noice but I think you should explain how to click fast.

LAPLAX June 8, 2014 at 1:06 PM UTC

Wow that was much PVP guide

LAPLAX June 8, 2014 at 1:06 PM UTC

Ogrey June 8, 2014 at 1:06 PM UTC

Haha, this is really useful!
I learned how to deal critical hits properly now :)

Emmaye June 8, 2014 at 1:06 PM UTC

Gosh darn it now it's gonna be harder to fight some forum users xD

IamSUPERMAN2007 June 8, 2014 at 2:06 PM UTC

Thank you Plaza for making this. It's very useful! I actually see this getting a sticky.

Cxnfirmed June 8, 2014 at 2:06 PM UTC

@CreeperJoe I thought I did? xD

@Evocal I'm glad it helped :D 

@Emerald dam no lock pls xD

@Craft No problem, I hope it helped :D

Cxnfirmed June 8, 2014 at 2:06 PM UTC

Changed the name, due to the guide wasn't really that small.

cinammoncroc000 June 8, 2014 at 2:06 PM UTC

Regarding the Quake Pro thing, it is more effective if you have a larger screen (like a desktop instead of a laptop.) I, for one, use an iMac and it's practically a foot away from my eyes (probably not safe lol) so I can see my target whether I am shooting at them or sword-fighting with them.

Cxnfirmed June 8, 2014 at 2:06 PM UTC

I don't really see what you are trying to tell. Screen size variate, the length away from your screen variate and FOV variate. It's up to you, but I would recommend normal.

cinammoncroc000 June 8, 2014 at 2:06 PM UTC

I don't really see what you are trying to tell. Screen size variate, the length away from your screen variate and FOV variate. It's up to you, but I would recommend normal.
I guess my point was that a bigger screen is more advantageous because it just displays things larger than a smaller screen (and therefore it is more comfortable to use Quake Pro), but of course there are many other factors to include like you said.

Oh, and great job on the guide m8! :D

kycrafft June 8, 2014 at 3:06 PM UTC

I don't really see what you are trying to tell. Screen size variate, the length away from your screen variate and FOV variate. It's up to you, but I would recommend normal.
I would recommend 80-90. I don't like extremes.

nocapsnonumbers June 8, 2014 at 4:06 PM UTC

Nice PvP guide! :D Lol, loving that line 'Note: Don't use hacked clients' xDDD

CrypticGalaxy June 8, 2014 at 4:06 PM UTC

Were you inspired by YLO's pvp guide? :D

TheDuckBoy June 8, 2014 at 5:06 PM UTC

Plaza what kind of gaming keyboard and mouse do you have? Like which one specifically.

Cxnfirmed June 8, 2014 at 5:06 PM UTC

@Violent xD ye, importante

@Cryptic Does YLO have a guide? If so, I didn't mean to copy. But, I can't find it?

@Duckboy Mouse: Razer Deathadder Keyboard: I use a MacBook Pro, so the keyboard on that. :p

Oh, yeah, I would obviously know that, since I play OCN every day… .-.

You'd be surprised as to how similar your guide is to mine. XD

Good job though.

Cxnfirmed June 8, 2014 at 8:06 PM UTC

YLO send me link to yours? xD

And ty<3

SpicyTunaRoll9 June 8, 2014 at 10:06 PM UTC

Stop teaching people how to become better at pvp ughhh ><
You're gonna make pubbing on nexus much harder now .-.
Anyway nice guide. +1

Cxnfirmed June 8, 2014 at 10:06 PM UTC

Thanks :D

MLGtino June 8, 2014 at 11:06 PM UTC

Juliorxl8 June 8, 2014 at 11:06 PM UTC

just hack is easier ;D

Eklip_Z June 9, 2014 at 5:06 AM UTC

To be able to combo you need a decent clicking mouse and to test this go to here http://rainbow6.wapka.mobi/site_145.xhtml 
It will give you around 5 seconds to click as fast as you can and also give you click per second speed.

Cxnfirmed June 9, 2014 at 8:06 AM UTC

@Tino xD

@Julior .     

@Cupcake That site only gave me a buy traffic link...

UnicornSniper June 9, 2014 at 1:06 PM UTC

Much sweg!  Thank you for this guide PlaZa_17!  Try not to kill me though ok o_o? I have much practice to do (^_^)v

Cxnfirmed June 9, 2014 at 3:06 PM UTC

No problem, I hope it will help. ^_^ I will not kill you anymore, promis T_T

CreeperJoe62 June 9, 2014 at 5:06 PM UTC

I get 14 clicks a second :). If only I could aim whilst jitter clicking :(

Cxnfirmed June 9, 2014 at 6:06 PM UTC

14 clicks per second is really good. But its quite hard to aim indeed :/

suspector June 9, 2014 at 8:06 PM UTC

YLO send me link to yours? xD

And ty<3
Type 'site:oc.tc YLO's pvp guide' into google. It will come up with it.

Cxnfirmed June 10, 2014 at 5:06 AM UTC

Well dam, mine looks pretty much the same as yours. xD

Cxnfirmed June 10, 2014 at 7:06 PM UTC

Any more feedback, please? :3

CreeperJoe62 June 10, 2014 at 7:06 PM UTC

Could you make a video showing these tactics in action plz :)

carrie_may June 10, 2014 at 8:06 PM UTC

Plaza all of these techniques really helps a lot and you've given an accurate information so tnx! :D

Cxnfirmed June 10, 2014 at 9:06 PM UTC

@CreeperJoe I could try! :p depends on how many who wants it, so I don't waste my time making a id that one person would watch. AND I only get like 10-20 fps while recording, so it will be kinda hard to make it, but if people want it, I'll do it. :)

@Carrie I'm glad I could help ya :D

SpicyTunaRoll9 June 11, 2014 at 1:06 AM UTC

This is perfect, however you should add:

When getting comboed:
-Don't give up just because you're getting comoboed. If you are in a combo the best way to escape it is.
-Blockhit (you already said this)
-Shift Tap. This will reduce the majority of knockback and you should be able to get a few consecutive hits on them.
-Blockhit and press s + space bar rapidly. This will ensure the knockback + the jump will propel you enough to escape the enemy's range.

TheOpAmerican June 11, 2014 at 1:06 AM UTC

Use f5 when you're being chased.

Cxnfirmed June 11, 2014 at 12:06 PM UTC

@Spicy Yeah, i didn't put in how to defend yourself against these tactics, I might do.

@Jake Well, you don't have to, I use it to see if someone is chasing me. You said use it when you're being chased, whats the point of that? To see where he is going?

leMaCderp June 11, 2014 at 3:06 PM UTC

such guide copy

TheOpAmerican June 11, 2014 at 4:06 PM UTC

@Jake Well, you don't have to, I use it to see if someone is chasing me. You said use it when you're being chased, whats the point of that? To see where he is going?
I use it to see if he's still chasing me, and to determine whether he's far away enough from me to give me time to pop an arrow at him or eat a gold apple. It's nice to have eyes in the back of your head sometimes.

TheOpAmerican June 11, 2014 at 4:06 PM UTC

such guide copy
This is a normal pvp guide. I assure you that all of them look/are similar to this one. I'm sure plaza has better things to do than copy guides off the OCN forums, like maybe writing his own variation of it.

Zeusy June 11, 2014 at 4:06 PM UTC

Very Accurate Guide ;)!
Love it ;D!

Cxnfirmed June 11, 2014 at 4:06 PM UTC

@Jake Lol, you're right! I use it as well to see how far he is away from me, so I know I have time to for example eat a golden apple without him crit on me. :D

@Zeusbb Thanks bae :*<3

Zeusy June 11, 2014 at 4:06 PM UTC

Cxnfirmed June 14, 2014 at 6:06 PM UTC

i asked for feedback, not for your youtube channel.

ShiptheBattle June 14, 2014 at 6:06 PM UTC

Beautiful concepts and a very organized PVP Guide. Definitely a topic that should be kept up in Game Discussion. Keep up the good work Plaza!
One feedback: What if you lag? 
I know it's a very, very general question, but I think adding a little part to it would help out. :) 

PS: MC_BlackSniper, please, please refrain from acting so swaggy and posting your youtube channel (Basically, Stfu.) I've seen you in game, you're not that good as you think you are, and also I know you have a very big ego about yourself. Just stop.

Cxnfirmed June 14, 2014 at 6:06 PM UTC

Thank you so much, battlefield! :3
Dam, thats a hard question. I don't know really, I could add "good computer" to "good equipment", since lag makes the game less enjoyable. :p

CreeperJoe62 June 14, 2014 at 7:06 PM UTC

You need to add 2 more steps. 

1. Blame lag every time you die. For example LAGGGG. Make sure to make yourself look like a complete wanker whilst doing so.

2.make a huge deal about when you kill someone. For example. HAHAHA NOOB or <-------- BEST PVPER EVAR or just EzPz

SRKZI June 14, 2014 at 7:06 PM UTC

Thank you, and no problem. ;)

FazeOfKnight1 June 25, 2014 at 11:06 AM UTC

Good job on this! :DDD 
Didn't help me much, but I'm really rusty right now; any tips to sharpen up? 
ALSO. I'm on a Mac, and I set my sprint to R. I have a ordinary mouse, and I can only sprint left. They figure this out a lot, and therefore I'm beaten easily, any tips for that? Any new keys?

ayy June 25, 2014 at 1:06 PM UTC

I advise binding sprint to shift and sneak to f
Also, getting a better mouse with cool buttons helps
button pvp :o)

A mouse with just one programmable side button works for me.
I bind it to "1".

You ocn arent you?
I think I saw something like this on their forums a while back...

Plaza was banned from OCN around a year ago, I don't think he ever made a PvP guide over there though, you may be thinking of this

Love you for day plaza

So THAT'S what strafing is! OHH...

Personally, I love the Optifine zoom to be 'F' because it's really helpful and easy to reach in bow fights :D
Anyways, that's a good idea!

THE_FUSA July 7, 2014 at 5:07 AM UTC

  1. Wait I know a strafe. Cross strafe.
  2. Sprint (don't jump or shift or block) into a player while hitting.
  3. when you cross the player, quickly turn 180 degrees back at him.
  4. Repeat.
  5. Hints: The faster you are, the less time they have to knock you back. If you are hit, immediately morph into the circle strafe. Then, if they lose track of you, continue cross strafing.

chill m8. PlaZ is pretty good I'd say. But i couldn't compare you two as I've fought neither

Wilie January 13, 2015 at 10:01 PM UTC

No need to get so angry I'm just telling the truth IMO.
Lol who are you? Plaza is like a brother to me, if you actually knew him to well to say he's better than me you woudl've know this.

AutoHit January 13, 2015 at 10:01 PM UTC

Let's not start a argument here. This was a big bump, and it isn't needed. In the forum rules you cannot bump.

AstroPizza January 13, 2015 at 10:01 PM UTC

There is no need to bump a topic over 7 months old unless you contribute to the topic or you  believe it has not had the credit it deserved.You have done neither.
