Ok, it’s T9, but that doesn’t mean that we don’t have any fun in our WvW experience, on the contrary.. And since there was no topic yet for our matchup: here it goes..
Would like to thank Blacktide for the nice battle we had yesterday evening at Stonemist Castle. We managed to rush with some guilds our part of EB, took SM, but were confronted by the BT zerg when we dared to approach their keep..
Fell back to SM, where the battle intensified. Took them almost an hour to recapture SM (thanks for the nice kills there, my Tier in WvW invaders killed went up), but of course they succeeded at the end..
Nevertheless, we (FoW) were able to capture almost their entire borderlands while they were hitting on SM, so we managed to take the lead for some time..
See you at our next push!

I agree with Tribio. Doesn’t matter what tier you are on; last night it felt really organised and epic!
I have been more focused on PvE than WvW to date, and any attempts to get into WvW have resulted me being rolled by far superior numbers of Blacktide (who have categorically held most the map for some time).
Well i got my first real taste of WvW and loved it. That battle at SM was hectic enough, holding the courtyard with 2 bits of wall down for an hour or so and then the Vabbi started to move! Amazing and can’t wait to get on there later!
Thanks for the battle BT/Vab, and i will also see you at our next push!
I haven’t seen zerging this bad in months. All we seem to be doing is taking stuff and then abandoning it.
After the fight you are all going on about yesterday, there were only about 10 of us defending our own Borderlands, which is hilarious considering EB and BT Borderland had queues on 20 mins before hand.
All 3 servers have been doing the same thing since the patch, so were all going to be stuck down here for a long time (Note: we all deserve to be down here, don’t go inflating our ratings).

Hmmz, we tend to defend what we have capped actually.. Place some AC’s and have people check out from time to time.. Also, did you not read the part where I mentioned that while the fight at SM was ongoing the borderlands of BT were capped?

Some people do have to work in the morning, so you can’t expect us to be online 24/7 doing our WvW magic..

It’s not because we are T9 that we s*ck monkeyballs.. We do have some skills, OK, not to be compared to T1 of course, but nevertheless.. The problem of not having that many active WvW players is what’s messing us up.. Who from FoW was playing this night between midnight and 8am in WvW?
Starting to regret not transferring off now.
kthxbye

I think you’ve got the wrong end of the stick, I was in Blacktide Borderland since EB was full when we tried to join in. This isn’t mostly directed at last night, but theres been plenty of times where our entire force has been in EB and refused to come back and defend upgraded towers and Keeps in FoW over the last 2 weeks.

No, this was when everyone was defending a single tower in EB whilst we lost 2 Keeps in our BL. I know and accept we don’t have a night crew, thats not the issue here, its the inability to prioritise.

That was actually meant to be a joke in regards to the US Tier 8 threads that pop up all the time.

Agree there, at times people get carried away too much in EB and don’t notice the own borderlands are overrun.. Also hate to see when some commander lures all to EB right after recapping our own border.. Upgrades first, but apparently not all (want to) know that..

True this..

Oh yeah.. Makes me think, indeed.. Time to start 20+ threads about our T9 issues.. ANet, FIX US!!

Good job! When i logged off we still had all of our Borderlands and more than 1/3 of EB. Something like the spartan 300 springs to mind.
If you look at the forums (which I’ve just started to lurk on) you can see that zerging in general has increased across all servers and players of higher tier servers have commented on it at length since the end to culling in WvW.
The grass is greener on the other side fits nicely here.
So to be self-deprecating over actually getting some traction against BT doesn’t sit well with my new enthusiasm and loyalty to FoW as a almost virgin WvWer!
