DB forever!!
Dragonbrand / BP / Darkhaven
DB forever!!
BP has NEVER said we expected to breeze thru this tier. We expected a challenge, and have so far received one. Both servers fight much better than Anvil Rock and it’s alliance of wall walkers.
Some people just cant take a joke. Enjoy the bandwagon kids and keep telling yourself its not the transfers its our super skilled players.
Hello all! I’m finally back to GW after a week of being out in the pacific running drills.
it seems to me that the battle for my fellow Darkhaviens is taking a toll on the moral. Hopefully I will be able to help get us back into the fight as much as possible. I have the next 3 days off and plan on making Borlis Pass and Dragonbrand pay for every inch of ground they take from us on Darkhaven.
Be prepared for the Darkhaven Warmachine.
>:O jk im not all that intimidating…just happy to be back and ready to help my server out anyway I can.
BTW! hello Borlis Pass always good to see new players out on the battlefield…and…well hello dragonbrand…nice to see you to i guess. -.- you guys need to friggen sleep or something.. ^.^ (jk love you guys too)

Hi Guys n Gals
Digital Knightz will be holding two Guild Banquets in the Hallowed Halls of Citadel on our Home Borderlands 1.5hrs before the Next Reset for the first and 12hrs later for the second (Timezone Aware). All are welcome to come and enjoy the Festivities, there will be Ale, Food, Fireworks and more. So come to Borlis Pass Borderlands Citadel 1.5 hours before the next Reset (leaves 30mins to discus War Effort!!!)
This is just a small way the DKz can gather you all up and in some way say Thank You all for an great start to the new GW2 and a LOT of FUN has been had by all and in some small way Celebrate the upcoming Festivities.
If possible can we arrange for our Opposition to join us? If so we can have the Banquet setup just outside of Citadel to Accomodate our Worthy Opponents as well. WOW that would be just like in that old war movie were the guns fell silent for Christmas Day heheh. Some replies from Dh & Db would be both welcomed & appreciated.

Sounds like a great idea to me. As long as we can keep our mates from getting drunk and starting a brawl. But seriously, if we could do this, it would probably be a first in the WvW community.

Epic fights on DB borderlands all day long.. thank you to everyone who was there to help us maintain our hold on the map. Neither the Garrison nor Hills Keep were flipped during my 10+ hours in-game, but there were some close calls!

Maybe some Duelling even would be fun. It lasts an hour and gives Commanders the chance to talk pre-war tactics for 30 mins prior to reset so as not to interfere with that process
I’m not sure but yeh it would be a WvW ‘first’ I guess, maybe some of the other server are considering it too I’m not sure. The way I see it we spend a bucketload of time fighting each other & with each other, would an hour just ‘messing about’ amicably kill us (most likely heheh) but yeh I’m kinda looking forward to it myself.
I could only stack two Banquets to cover different timezones hence the second banquet 12 hrs later. I would have liked to have more but thats the way it is atm (hint hint ANet let us have/build more banquets than two please). (Looking forward also to the Feb upgrade to WvW and hopes it brings us new objectives & purpose).

Well, we in DH call if fight club
And sure, thats what we always do just about every matchup, we usually schedule it for thursday though, but it can be on friday as well.
Rules are:
make a circle/square/ring type area.
1v1, 3v3, 5v5
Golem fights, np
Opponents bow at eachother before the fight begins, then bow after any one is downed. No spiking at all, only to down state.
How many times will a fully upgraded (or nearly) SM be flipped this week. It would be interesting if they had statistics showing how much gold teams were spending on the various objectives.

Eh, don’t trouble yourself with moving it out of your own citadel! It would be fun to walk a 50 man raid into your spawn and join in It really shouldn’t be so easy that an enemy can walk right up the hill into your own citadel and stealth past Legendary Defenders. Not so Legendary now are they lol…

Thanks for your hacking skill BP. Fly hacking cross gate to finish me. Teleport to keep waypoint when it under attacted every time.
One shot kill 2/3 health, and I am Toughness build Nerco. Thank you Anet didn’t fix this issue when we are keep arguing this problem.
Theres only 1 person on BP who has been hacking. He transfered over from Anvil rock last week and is in the guild CRFT or was. We have sent many reports/screenshots and even a video of this player doing so. It’s up to Anet to do their part now as we did ours. If you see any1 else using exploits or hacks please post it on the forums and we will report it as well. Dont judge BP as a server for the actions of a few tools.

No, might be same guy different character, but either way report him if you can and ive loaded up fraps and am ready to record him if i catch sight of him.

So,
Just participated in the attack in BP Borderlands.
Solid show, boys.
I’m usually in smaller groups and don’t often take to attacking Keeps (In this case, Hills),
But you held off two zergs at each outer gate for quite a while; so props.
EDIT: I’m actually gonna append this.
I watched the same zerg/guilds steamroll DH Borderlands in under 15 minutes last week, so holding us up for almost an hour at one keep was pretty solid.
Considering DH’s pathetic Wv3 population now I wouldn’t give anyone props!
[SIC] Strident Iconoclast ~ FA
Well,
I was addressing BP, just using past experiences with DH as an example.
We fought DH for three consecutive weeks before this fourth (As I’m sure you’re aware),
DH only recently lost the population, far as I’m aware.
Which is a pretty kittenty blow to any server that prides itself on wvw (As anyone who’s been on Dragonbrand since launch can attest)
And I assure you, DH is fairing much better after a guild exodus than DB did back when it happened to us.
Btw you can waypoint into any keep that is being attacked if you wait for the timer to count down. Its not a hack or an exploit. Once the “repel the attackers” timer goes to 0 you have about 5 seconds to waypoint in before it closes again.

A few players? The screens we showed had a good 50+ some you could not see. In addition most major guilds and the alliance were represented in those screens. This was not newbs following with lack of knowledge, this was a wide section of established guilds players CHEATING! Plok knocks you from that high horse, hey just like in game.

How was I on my high horse, did I say anything about it? I just said we didn’t have the cheaters anymore, well they don’t seems to be. And one of your guys said they were with you know.
I’m the one that said to everyone Anvil Rock was hurt by this wave of hacking, and I worked hard to find and clean the server.
But I come to this thread to see how BP is going on, and the only thing I see is BP saying bad thing about Anvil Rock, saying we are full of hacker and cry baby.
We had ONE wave of hacker since release… Not like we can do anything to control it.
The rivalry is over between BP and AR, we won’t fight each other for quit some time. There are no reasons to continu to drag us in the mud over something we can’t control. (In a match up that you controled and stomped us, by the way)
In those 50 players, I’m sure only a minority knew the portal was from an exploit. It happened to me, and I know it’s happening. You can’t always know how the mesmer got inside.
Now feel free to let it go, no need to beat a dead horse. We aren’t making BP a bad reputation in our thread, I would expect the same sportmanship from you BP.
Borliss Pass did a good job and are becoming a really strong server, so I wish you good luck.
P.S : Just read the next post.
“Now clearly, this isn’t a mass guild exploit of +40 people like what Anvil Rock does on a daily basis”
No need for this kind of bashing when it happened once.

Not certain, apparently the person who said that was just joking. Although it can hardly be considered a joke if no one gets it or thinks it’s funny.
To the Darkhaven guild attacking people in the jumping puzzle:
Of course you realize, this means war. I will now make it my personal mission to organize thief groups to gank Darkhavens in the jumping puzzle.
Otherwise, it’s been a fun and interesting day so far. I was part of the initial group of people defending BP lands from the Dragonbrand assault. And let me tell you, you guys not only have nice tactics, but the numbers and coordination to pull them off. Attacking 3 keeps at once from multiple locations? Superb. In the end only Hills was left standing and despite our efforts the keep fell in the end as well. It’s too bad your force is Oceanic, makes me wonder what would have happened if you were facing our prime crew.
My only problem with you folks so far is this – You have a formidable force, a strategy to strike several places at once, that’s executed flawlessly, and yet there are some Dragonbrand Invaders that ended at the Hills Lord Room, when all inner and outer gates were at full health. Now clearly, this isn’t a mass guild exploit of +40 people like what Anvil Rock does on a daily basis, so I’ll give you guys the benefit of the doubt this time. Come on, you’ve already proved you don’t need something like this to win. I would post screenshots, but technically I already did and the mods pmed me. The exploiters were from the guilds TAP, GB and UhOh, so I am hopeful that that would help you in finding them.
In any case, everyone is welcomed to the guild banquet. As the DKz chief troll, I will make sure to provide excellent entertainment. =D
Edit: No, it’s not really bashing, if it’s true. When 2-3 people exploit, it’s an isolated case. When an alliance of guilds exploit with +40 people, then it’s server policy. Go away from this thread, Anvil, and fix your server.

BP is full of hackers and cheater we should report and ban them all you guys are too funny.
This guy is a well-known forum troll. This is what he posted in another thread about cheating:
“Ok lets look at this logically. Anet built all the terrian in the game. they designed mesmer portals despite many people in the community saying its ripe for exploit or uses not intended in game. People in the game use whats in the game to the best of their abilities and get called cheaters. If you made an awesome build for your character no but you will get called cheater but all you did was think of a skill combo that the game designers didn’t intend in development. Alot of times these builds are nerfed which in the case of whats going on if Anet doesnt like whats going then they should fix their game. Dont blame people for using the all the tools they have. Blame the designer for not planning for the obvious.”

It won’t be the first time this happens. I’ve got a vid that shows them how they did it, even supported by a comm, but these things get deleted (and happen a lot more often in higher tiers). So let’s just play.
C’mon DH! Whats wrong with all you commanders?! we’ll get a nice zerg going on (with golems everywhere) about to sweep the place, and then you spawn to a random waypoint? If you dont know how to lead then dont be a commander! and a little communication please! your making DH suffer. Its been like this a few nights in a row. this is getting bad.
And ^this^ isnt for every commander, we still have a few who are tactitian geniuses who help DH alot.. (skap, Kay the kappa, Oxicide, lxl Pheonix lxl)

Thanks bud, I can only speak for myself. But I think a lot of the commanders especially the ones who you have mentioned (which are very good). Are just getting tired of matches like the one we currently are in and trying to command people who don’t want to listen, be self aware, and much rather be sheep or lemmings.

Heres where I stand on the matter.
1. First off, we have a blue Icon you can clearly see on the map, use it please. Me personally, I type it out if the situation is not dynamic and there is only one thing going on at that time, if there are multiple things going on, then objectives will change on the fly. So please, just follow and you will catch on.
2. Every one must have 10 supply on them at all times, if you do not, you are making things harder than it has to be, if we are short 10 supply, and only 1 ram on the gate, and the enemy is already taken the supply camp, or we are short on time to grab more supply, than we will not take our objective if you do not carry 10 supply.
3. If you are behind a commander, and we are moving, please do not stop for a Grub.
4. If you are behind a commander, and you clearly see the commander moving past a possible objective, please continue to follow the commander.
Situation:
A zerg of 30 people for DH, a zerg of 30 people for the other server.
DH zerg sees Grub, 15 peel off, Commander says to Rally, 5 people come back (total time spent 2 min). DH Zerg of 20 see’s 2 enemy moving in the distance, 5 go chase after. DH zerg of 15 with only 5-7 people having supply, just enough for one ram on a gate. Time wasted by using 1 ram instead of 2… ~ 2 min.
4 minutes pass by and DH zerg of 15 working on gate is pushed off by other servers zerg of 30.
The above scenario is not un-common in DH
5. Some simple key points:
a. If we say do not hit the gate, please do not hit the gate.
b. If we run past something, please do the same.
c. We use siege to take objectives, we do not scratch at the gate with out bare hands, please use the siege and pay attention to what we type in chat.
d. If I say “If your range, aoe enemy on top of walls, If your melee, protect the range and siege equipment” that does not mean to run off and get picked off or cut off from the main force. “Stay close” means to stay close on me, which prevents you from getting picked off. If we loose numbers we loose part of our force, please be smart of these things.
e. Lastly, if you think your making a difference by not being with the main force and killing sentry points or soloing supply camps, you might be wrong. When I go in a map and I dont see an outmanned buff on me, and I see 10-15 people on me, and an enemy zerg of 30 people, it makes me want to not even try.
And I did not even want to get started on defense, but I know it will be brought up like it always is. I can effectively hold off a tower or keep for 6-8 hours with only 2-6 people. By placing siege in proper locations this can be done, I have done so multiple times, against servers as FA and CD. But afterwards, after RE leaves, it will be lost. The reason it will be easily lost is due to people not knowing about siege despawn rates. More so, people are not dedicated and disciplined enough to do the same as an RE defense team does. We have not had a defense team in a while only because we know, that beyond any shadow of any doubt that once we leave the map, it will be lost.
You can ask any of the commander you have listed, they can attest to the expert siege placement the RE has shown, but again, we will not be doing that again, only because we know once we leave the map, it will be lost.

I hear you bud, keep up the excellent work (even though you are a low level) and just keep an open mind about tactics on the battle field (there are always things to learn). Never get yourself to focused on one idea, remember there are always alternatives to your method of attack. I think one day when you get your commander you will do well.
