Guild Wars 2

Hello everyone. As msot of you know we have, and still are, loosing alot of players that made up the majority of our WvW population. We are still free falling and will not likely get back up anytime soon.

BUT, I have faith in the darkhaven people that we can turn this around. I would like any and all Guild Leaders OR WvW Commanders to send me an in game mail or a message on here (the forums). In this message I would like to know the following things.

Guild Leaders:

1. The hours you and your guildies make your way into WvW and if you will be willing to work with others.

2. How many members you bring in to WvW daily, or if you do not WvW daily, how many of your members DO WvW daily.

3. Would you be willing to take on a leadership roll OTHER then you being just a guild leader.

As a guild leader you are personally responsible for your guildmates. This is true except for in WvW. If you have the capability to lead a 10+ group of people then please, do so. We need more roaming death squads and camp cappers. Zerging from one place to another isn’t effective against a server that can out zerg you. So split them up and make them fight you as evenly as possible.

Now for the Commanders of Darkhaven.

1. I would also like to know the hours of play time you put into WvW yourself, whether your with your guild or not.

2. As a Commander you will be held responsible for your succesess and failure. So I would like to know if you are fully capable of coeping with this and not rage quit cause people called you out on it. I have messed up alot when commanding groups but you have to learn from it. It’s the only way to get better.

3. Will you be able to work side by side with another commander that is also on the map? I have seen this multiple times just this week where commanders completely ignore eachother and do there own thing. This will not stand and we must rectify this. Communication is key.

4. And finally. Will you be able to relinquish your commander authority if a more “capable” commander logs in? I myself find this hard to know but I know of commanders that are better then me with strategies. So I learned from them, watched how they led and now…i know to promise the zerg horsies and hot women that were stolen from us and are on the other side of that wall or gate…. ^.^

To many times have I logged on and found 5-7 commanders on 1 map. We only ever need a max of 2-3 depending on our pop size. People get confused on who to follow and we wind up spreading way to far apart and get destroyed. I understand people want to lead and shout orders. But in order to lead you need to learn to follow. Try being the lil zergling thrown into a hail of ballista bolts… its very fun. ^.^

I am doing this for the sake of my server that I have hope for. We may be loosing alot of players but we are also gaining them. So I will add in this last peice of thought. TRAIN THEM. Teach them about supply camps, how to build seige weopens, not to take supplies from towers. I don’t like seeing people get mad at the noob or make sly comments about him for asking a question. What good will an ignorant mob be for us? Help me teach our new people so we can start to rise again. Who knows…the guy you teach may one day be darkhavens best commander.

Don’t know what to tell you man,

The pugs don’t listen, they will just QQ about it, even if you ask them to have supplies at all times.

That’s why were doing this. Most people don’t listen because of 2 reason. 1 there either just there to troll people or 2 they don’t really know better. I’v had alot of people ask me where to get supplies this week which shows that our server has alot of new people and knowone is teaching them.

Actium,

I am the leader and commander of my guild PD and we are on most nights from around 9:00pmish to 2:00amish EST. We normally have 5 to 10 players on each night. I agree with your comment about yielding command to a commander you know will lead better. I would also like to say that since we have started working with WE this past week or two and things have been so much more successful and fun for us.

I have found a little success this week by making it a point to pick up at least one PUG in my party each day and try to help train and explain why we are doing the things we are doing.

Thanks for the replies guys. I will add you to my friends list so we can get together. Except you togo I know you. PD has definetly beend fun to work with.

Also to you flint, do you live in our garrison? lol If your the flint im thinking of then thanks for those hours spent in garri.
