Commander, Guild Leader of [Epic] Muffins
DragonBrand for life
Hey guys, I’m one of the more well known commanders on our server and pay very close attention to our WvW status and how we’re doing. I never thought I’d make a post like this but DB is in need of some help. We’ve hit an odd problem for a NA server… We have a better night crew than day crew. At night we take most if not all of EB, and at least 2/3 BL for ourselves, but come around about 10AM PST, we lose it all until about 2AM. We don’t really lack the tactics and strategy during the day time, just the numbers.
We get zerged and can’t muster the forces to counter it regardless of what we try and employ to stop em. We were plagued by mass server transfers about 2 months ago and just can’t seem to bounce back. Our remaining WvW community is simply the people who refuse to leave DB and refuse to uproot their guilds. Like me. We work well together and maintain that respect from one commander and one guild to another. We have to, we don’t have enough people on in the day to be fighting lol.
This post isn’t seeking out the elitists or hardcore WvW guilds and players, but it is looking for those players that would be interested in finding a new home with a lot of promise and a lot friendly allies. If you would like to reach me, pls send me mail in game to Phuriok, or mail me on my guild site www.epicgw.guildlaunch.com. I would like to save our once great server from falling any further. We were once a tier 2 server and have fallen to tier 6 and haven’t won a match in almost 6 weeks because we just get rolled by too many people. We’re rebuilding, slowly, and we’re looking for NA timezone guilds and players
Best of luck in WvW and in your gaming experience.
Funny coincidence that both of our opponents post recruitment threads at the exact same time…You should just come to Maguuma instead
This match wasn’t really the reason why, it was last week’s lol. I just decided it was time to post it. I’m never leaving DB so,
DH here … and piggybacking on this … because we have the opposite issue. Great NA timezone coverage, but 2am we all gets sleepies zzz … and yes, barely the numbers to hold SM for 15 minutes or so defensively while Dragonbrands large zerg comes in the door. Fun battle though, but not enough presence to retain it because we all have to go to bed ~ and work the next morning.
Imagine a world where DH + DB + Mag’s combined. Full coverage lol. Your the reason our Asian squad has issue, we have little more than strike squads running at that time.
Yeah definitely need more NA presence, Im thinking about running a full scale server event to try and raise some wvw awareness
We on Far Shiverpeaks would actually want Dragonbrand players to move to our servers. We’re in the EU, the latency is next to nothing and we have a good solid WvW krewe, but need a stronger (in numbers) force on all times of the day. We might be EU, but we have a strong solid English Speaking community, and all of mapchats and open communication is made in English.
You should contact me in game some day so we can talk.
not gonna happen, like i said, we’re lacking a NA presence. We’re not gonna sacrifice the few players we have left.
Guys come to DarkHaven! we have the opposite problem, as previously mentioned.
So we’d then have a good round the clock presence.
DH is getting well organised with an Alliance of guilds dedicated to WvW. Nice friendly people, free cookies and synchronised dancing!
Hey now, this is a topic for Dragonbrand.. please don’t use it for your own recruitment purposes – DH and Maguuma have their own threads for that.
As a fellow commander on Dragonbrand, I can confirm all of what Phuriok mentions in the OP. Despite losing a lot of people to free server transfers a while back, we’re still a strong server that’s simply lacking numbers at this point – specifically during mid-day NA time. Evenings tend to be better, but queue’s are practically non-existent most nights.
We don’t support guilds uprooting themselves from low-tier worlds to come here.. you would be doing your community a great disservice by doing so. But if you’re looking to escape the queue on high-tier servers and make a name for yourself in WvW, Dragonbrand is a great choice. We know how to have a good time.
To reaffirm what Grit is talking about, we are constructing an “alliance” not focused purely on WvW, but on our community as a whole.

check it out if you’re interested.
We’re gonna rebuild our community and our server. WvW is a significant piece of a much larger picture and we understand that.
and to think my guild left DB a month ago due to 1 hour queues not letting us get into WvW at the same time lol. I hope you get some help! I always liked DB when I was there.
You’re missing out, had a blast in the event today. The server enjoyed it as well.
