Guild Wars 2

I was the commander for the Mag side of DB BL tonight (EU Prime/early NA) and just wanted to say to everyone that participated today that this was one of the best action packed days I had in a while. The 9 hour battle on this map between mag and db really put my militia and I to the test when it came to map control and coordination to contain the DB guild groups and zerg. DB did exceptionally well retaking and holding their northern diamond while maintaining constant and continuous pressure against our advancement. And I truly think both sides have racked up an incredible amount of kills as there was a group/zerg/roaming fight almost every 2 minutes. Neither side wanted to lose and that was what made tonight truly special in our tier.

I learned a great deal about the map and as a commander who has been here since start, I feel WvW is just a new beginning all of a sudden. The DB attacks to west keep were very clever, attacking from every angle to attrition our supply so they could advance to the inner. Wave after wave we had to deal many unique situations which always resulted in open field fighting, many of them being close calls. What caught me off guard was their siege setup in the top levels of the dunes which had full range on our middle gate. However, no matter the numbers on both sides, what truly made things interesting was the use of the tactivators. The supply drop was what gave us the edge to hold WK while the enemy chill fields halted our advancement into the diamond. The usage of the shrines (in particular between middle and west keep) was equally important as every battle fought at that position served as a gateway to advance deeper into enemy territory.

Anyways, just wanted to say to DB that you guys fought really well today and would love to see more of this happen. To Maguuma, thank you for coming out to this today and making this feel like 1st year WvW all over again.

This sounds like some pretty interesting tactics all around. I usually don’t have to deal with anything beyond enemies blobbing on one gate/wall or another. Even if we repel them, they resup and blob on the same place or somewhere else. Just the other day, after repelling 4 attacks by the same blob, their commander whispered me saying he hoped I died and that I was killing the game mode by defending. He said I wasted an hour of his life.

Seems like the difference between those that are closet K-Trainers and those that actually want tactical warfare.

Nah, DB is back yet again. If Mag is looking for a good defense workout, they’ll definitely get it fighting off the 3 headed SEA dragon.
