1.Loading & selection
a) Select loki at the major god selection
b) ready up
c) Let the game load till about 50%
d) When the game is almost loaded (75%) spam target your TC using your go to TC hotkey (z)
e) Press the hotkey for villager creating twice (c)
2. Archaic and starting off
a) The game should be loaded by now, target your vills and cart and move to the closest food resource
b) Set TC rally point by clicking TC hotkey and then right clicking on your food source
c) Target your ulf using the idle military button (CAPS) and move it towards where your opponent will be starting, anyone know that it is opposite to your own base in 1v1, dont move it to far though. (If you are facing Kronos, dont move anywhere as close as you normally would due to deconstruction)
d) While your ulf moves across the map make a villager production cycle using the repeat funciton in AOT, if you are playing vanilla click twice on the villager icon.
e) Keep this cycle until you have 7 vills working on food, start herding your moveable herdery, move cart to gold and set tc rally to gold, and creat a dwarf. And dont forget, after the dwarf is trained, keep training villagers.
f) Move your ulf closely towards the inline of his base, and find a suitable victim for the spy godpower and engage it! dont risk too much, if you lose your ulf now its probaly over unless you are 1800+
g) Scout around for a nice forward base spot, when you find one create EITHER a temple OR a house, depending on your pop status.. Build both no matter what, its just a choice what to make first..
h) Check your food source, if you need to move on a to a new one that is somewhat away from your TC, if not make a cart..
i) You should have 2-3 on gold now, if you only got 2, make sure u get 3, and when you do have a last villager chop wood.
j) Build another house, scout/micro/kite a little.. too see whats going on, if you got a decent spy snapped already this isnt nescesarry.
k) Stop the villager cycle, wait for 400 food to be reached, if you got more than 70 gold, and less than 300 food, create a dwarf. Click the advance button as soon as you reach 400 food.
l) Keep collecting wood, if you see you wont 150 wood when you reach classical with this rate, remove a gold farmer to chop some
o) Forseti or Heimdall? Unless you are up against Hades or Poseidon, I strongly suggest Heimdall, and if you do choose Forseti your rush wont be anywhere as powerful and this strategy can be called a quick raid instead of a rush. This guide will continue using the assumption that you picked Heimdall...Classical & nailing things off..
a) So you are waiting for your classical advancement, but dont worry there will be more than enough to do
- Ensure that your current food source isnt empty
- Eventually make a bind for your 7 vils + cart for food (as you will probaly swap food sources alot)
- As soon as you got 80 food and 40 gold (you should have the gold!) train a hersir at your offensive temple, and make a production cycle for hersirs
- If you got somewhat much gold, train a dwarf and set it to gold, free up a vill and give to the food farmers, this also somewhat depends on wood rate
b) Do not let your enemy harm your hersir before you advance as he is utterly weak in archaic.
c) Finally, you advanced! a einherjar pops out of your temple, about the same time as a hersir. Depending on wood status, make either longhouse and a house or just a house..
If you make a longhouse, have it create a cycle of hersirs, do not cancel your temple cycle before you have to due to food..
d) Select your army; probaly something like this, 2-3 hersir, [ulfsark], einherjar. Go for the city, if he has upgraded towers, go for the towers, if not, screw it and go for the temple/food workers. [Leave the ulf behind to build a house if you need it]
e) Set temple and longhouse gather point somewhere into the city, where the war is going on, ull know where
f) Watch your favor, as soon as you get enough, create a einherjar from your temple
g) Watch your food collectors.. if nescesarry find a new source, if you cant find one you are screwed
h) Figure out when and what to use Undermine on..
i) If you do things right, you will be probaly pushing him by now, and arent far from being victorious.. well if you arent, its never to late to fall back and wall up and protect yourself against his encounter before you strike again.Guide created by me; a player that has not yet to play a game on ESO because what he thought was the retail game as a pirate copy with no legal key -_- anyways, good luck with it, not sure if this will work on eso, but this is what I do.
