SoS’s “Hands-off” WvW approach
SoS has the organization without the burden/interference from fellow guilds in how you play. If you like to open field you have the freedom to do open field and ignore ppt. If you like to siege up towers/keeps and defend, then more power to you. When you ask for help people will respond if they are able to. If we lose a T3 keep, first thing everyone says is let’s go get it back. SoS is no stranger to uphill battles with our NA consistently going up outnumbered against TC/FA and previously T1 servers. The constant fights have improved the militia & cohesion of the guilds on SoS. No one guild can do everything and with the range of interests and styles a world will have, we believe it’s vital to have our guilds be as close as possible.
Where are we going with this, you might ask? We are hoping to stay in T2 and balance out with servers who moves up and down. T2 seems to be the sweet spot in WvW for good fights. But right now our coverage has some gaps which keeps us swinging into T3 on a bad roll. We would especially be interested in hearing from those with a wide range of interests within the game, who share our views of having a strong community focus. We are also in no particular rush. We would prefer that interested players and guilds take the time to get to know our community and be sure that we’re the right world for them to call home.
What we need
1 EU guild – guild that loves to float and be the last line of defense against marauding blobs during EU. (max 20 man raid)
1-2 NA ops – guilds that love to ninja stuff, flip camps and ruins to look for roamers.
PugManders – We are in need of commanders that love to lead the militia and know how to adapt. If you up to the challenge we have excellent militia that will follow your lead and will follow you off cliffs if need be
What we Offer
Communication
Our server/WvW meeting is open to everyone. We are an open server without egos, that encourages everyone on the server to have a voice. SoS guilds provide organization and structure for those interested in working together for WvW. The meeting is usually 30 mins or less as we don’t want GW2 to be a second job and happens on the community TS3. Weekly server meeting serves as update for server on recruitment efforts and map assignments for reset.
Community Ts3
Community TS3 is utilized by most of the server’s guilds with whisper lists/ccom to coordinate flanks/requests for help if needed. Community TS3 is used by militia groups outside of raid times to organize raids as well.
Business Casual WvW
Most of guilds on SoS have a relaxed ‘hands off’ approach to WvW. We don’t want to go back to T1 ever. We just play WvW for fun when we can and enjoy the fights. Op’s groups or havoc squads are encouraged to tag up and coordinate with the main group. You won’t be harassed for taking days off or GvGing, etc. Also, should you transfer, we would never expect you to put in “x” amount of hours/“x” amount of days a week. Just come to play, have fun & collect dem bags!
Guild Missions
Following Guilds offer open guild missions so that your members won’t miss out on commendations if you transfer.

Queue times
Unless all 3 zergs are in the same area, there is hardly any skill lag. Queues can be seen on reset night but are only 5-10 mins max.. After Friday reset, we hardly have minor queues on more then 1 border except for the rare event if multiple guilds coordinate to be on same map.
What we don’t offer:
Gold to transfer
Gold to relevel guild
Tension + Headaches
