Guild Wars 2

Hey everyone,

My guild Apex Prime is currently looking for 2-3 extremely skilled necromancers for intense highly coordinated Tier 1 WvW / GvG. Recruitment is harsh so please know your stuff. We largley focus on out-manned zerg busting fights. Will aid with xfers if needed.

A little about Apex Prime:

APeX Prime was created by two longstanding and active Blackgate community and BG War Council members who sought to create something brand new to NA and pioneer a shift in the current meta. APeX exists as a highly prestigious convergence of talented and elite gamers. The concept of APeX was founded on a highly competitive approach to gaming. In fostering that approach we will harbor an unequivocal culture of excellence and aspire to be a superlative team of well-rounded players.

APeX Prime’s focus is foremost to be the absolute pinnacle in Guild Wars 2 – North America. To achieve this, we will train together in order to develop cohesion and learn together to enhance our individual skill levels. Furthermore, APeX aims to be a medium for longstanding friendships and to be a welcoming home to like-minded individuals looking to better themselves and their team members.

Most importantly, we seek to be the perfect balance of a highly-skilled team and a genuinely fun environment. While APeX Prime does focus on an elite level of play, we do not have any desire for attitudes that are derived from elitism. Enjoying ourselves and each other is just as much of a priority as winning.

Yeah only 1 necro has msg’d me so far but hes in euro servers so it didnt work out….Still looking…needle in a haystack i guess

You may have picked a bad time lol

Guild sounds perfect for what I’m wanting, currently a pretty active Necro roamer but want to go to more organised group centred gameplay now.

Only problem is I’m from EU (play on NA servers currently on JQ). My times would be really weak during the week but would be ok on the weekends. Which guessing would be a problem with some activity you would be wanting.

You could say he picked the worst time. Necros are the lowest dmg in the game in PVE (which steers people away). They keep nerfing condi builds in sPVP and buffing other classes, its bound to have an exodus.

The attrition class with no attrition =D

I don’t even play spvp often, but I can empathize with those that do.

I say that because of the amount of necros that just rage quit from the nerfs lol Necro still is fun though, you just have to play for efficiency and not how you want to play like you can with other classes. When a penetrating LB hits several people for 4k rapidly it’s pretty hilarious.

What are your average playtimes? We usually play 4-6pm pst server time depending on how early we start, 3-4 times a week with our most active days being the weekend

Yes it is, Yes it is….

Don’t take this the wrong way, but you really aren’t going to pull any “skilled” players with any amount of ability or love for WvW to zerg gate. I would suggest you move to a server with w/o 24/7 queue times and a server that actually fights outmanned. Hint Hint

While our server as a whole may not fight outmanned, we as a guild specifically go out and look for these fights. Our guild leader is BG born and raised so moving isnt really an option for us as we are loyal. Yes queue times may be bad but we slightly alleviate this with map sign ups during NA prime usually securing space for our members to enter the map. Yes we still get queued from time to time but it works out for the most part. Looking for players to look past any bad connotations that BG may have.

This sounds fun. I do and still main my necro for wvw well for everything. I do enjoy wvw as well I am on AR right now so we don’t have many zergs per say but roaming fits for me. I guess I would call myself somewhat skilled. But sadly we are not on the same server; and after the last patch I am confused on what to do with my necro wont stop playing him but seeing a warrior out condi u is kinda sad…

i wouldn’t say you’re looking for a skilled necro but a competent one. Someone whos situationally aware in a zerg setting and can follow orders. All Boils down to gearing/ traiting correctly then knowing when and where to place their wells.

Highly skilled and GvG doesn`t really fit to each other. Sorry dude, any highly skilled player would feel hopelessly bored walking inside a monotag blob spamming ae.

The job you describe can be done by a 6 year old clicker with 12 apm. You know, sc2 bronce league level, quite the opposite of highly skilled.

Just my opinion.

I agree… even if the player is the best player in the world, and he plays so well that he is worth 2 other players… (as in can kill 1v2 100% of the time), if the class he plays even allows that…
When in a zerg of 100 people, his maximum effectiveness went from 1% to 2%… while as the worst noob in the 100 people zerg still has an effectiveness of 0.001%.

The two are not that different… no matter how good you are, you will always be just another drop in the ocean…

PS: while i do see the need for skilled people in GvG… it’s better to have 100 people that play at 2%, then 100 people that play at 0.0something%. 100 spartans vs 100 plumbers won’t end well for the plumbers…

My entire guild is highly skilled and we dont get bored…. We still want players who can think for themselves situational awareness and appropriate positioning all comes from being a skilled player and knowing your class well. Yes of course we are looking for competent players but it doesn’t need to stop right there. As for 100 man zergs I know its a just a rhetorical number you came up with but what we attempt to do requires you to be skillfull in the class you play or you will quickly die and be useless to us.

Ever try taking on 35+ with 12 and having the fight come down to the wire, or just straight up being victorious? Those situations require skilled players we dont blob we anti blob. If any 6 year old can do it why dont we see more guilds willing to fight outmanned and be successful at it?

I’ve got a couple of PM’s but no apps yet still looking for a couple of necro’s.
