This topic is dedicated for battle reports from EU server Blacktide. We just want to share some moments of our battles =)

If you want to share your thoughts or discuss our point of view of the situation – feel free to do so. It doesnt metter where are you from and who you are, are you guild member or not – just join this conversation!

[29.09.2012] Current match-up: Seafarer’s Rest vs Blacktide vs Baruch Bay[SP]

Lets make a summarize of day results. This day was very difficult for us, but we didn’t regret about anything. We started our fight at 3 AM (UTC “+” 3) and quickly made a tangible benefit. It kept for a 4 hours. Then (we think so) Seafarer’s guilds started their events – and it was hell fou us. Many superior golems, rams and other siege weapons – they were well organised. They were the 1st who destroyed all our keeps (that were upgraded in the morning/afternoon). During the day we had only 100-150 points, Seafarer’s Rest – 400+.

Seafarer’s members were good – they deserve “A” for this day-battle. Our mark is “C” (i mean mark for our guild, [Xaoc]). The only our fault – we loosed Hills keep at the Baruch Bay Borderlands very easily – we missed the moment when the main part of our siege weapons was disappeared. We were dissapoined of Baruch Bay players – not so good organization, small amount of siege weapons. But maybe they have a “night online” – will see. So, in general, it was a good day for us.

What’s next? Usual days and nontsop war. From our point of view, Seafarer’s cant provide such wvwvw-events every day (but when they have that events, they are very strong). Events will finished, but the war will be continued. But today’s Sefarer’s advantage was deserved.

Thanks everybody for the nice eventfull WvWvW day !

Thanks all who intersted this topic! We’d like to introduce a new battle report!

[30.09.2012] Current match-up: Seafarer’s Rest vs Blacktide vs Baruch Bay*

Today was a saturated day. It was better than yesterday. Amount of people was higher, even formed a small queues on borderlands in the evening for 5-10 minutes. However, this means that amount of people was near the maximum on all borderlands. On weekdays, there are no queue’s even in the evening.

As usual, we were lead in the morning, after 2 PM (UTC+3) situation stabilized and we took 1/2 place until evening. In the evening we began to loose our positions, but the gap was small, 50-100 points. As far as we can see the gap is about 150 points for now. Seafarer’s Rest advantage reduced for 2000 points from yesterday. But the most interesting thing is to see the Seafarer’s fight on workdays. We are playing similar on the weekend/workdays. On weekend, Seafarer’s looked stronger than our server in 24/7 battle. But as we said, we maintain this pace of war even in routine. But Seafarer’s Rest may partially pass the position and it could be our chance to win.

There were some interesting moments during the day. There were a few massive attack of golems on our Hills at Baruch Bay Borderlands. In the first eight golems came to the inner gate, it was hard for us, but there we stopped them. It was the most epic moment of the day – the most powerful attack on our keep from the game start. Some time ago we stopped another golems attack on this keep, but it was worse than first.
On Seafarer’s Borderlands at our Garrison also was golems attack (4), it was dangerous because keep was not upgraded and situated near the ememy respawn. Moreover, the outside walls have already been broken and we had the only one ability to destroy golems near inside gates. Finally we repelled an attack on the approaches to the Lord.
In the morning we used the same strategy and destroyed upgraded keeps at the Baruch & Eternal Borderlands with 5 golems.

Today we were greatly assisted by [WIC] guild at the Seafarer’s Borderlands. They upgraded our Hills keep and due to that we were holding this map up to 7-8 pm. Thanks to other guilds and untagged fighters who supported Blacktide this weekend.

Thank you for this write-up, very fun to read from Seafarer’s rest PoV player who was online for the past 48 hours after matchmaking. Thank you for the compliments, I am very happy about the way our server is organizing. We are indeed very strong during the times where we can set this up. However at about 5am Gmt+1 (few hours after server reset), the people who were left online had to deal with what seemed a 1000 man guild filling up WvW all of a sudden (Xaoc). It seemed you had people watching on other maps all the time and sending people accordingly.

You defended well for a long time until somewhere in the afternoon where we got the upper hand again. Good luck this week and I am happy with this match up.

It’s hard to deal with massive numbers at such times for us but we will see who will win now that the work/week days are here.

Seafarer Rest arnt night cappers. We dont guild obligations to do it. ( [FU] for sure)
We lost to Kodash and Elona reach (both [DE]) because of their night play.
I know Chaos([Xaoc] tag ingame) very well. And were epic fights with them at these days. Aggressive attacks whole time. And i know why
Also [SP] sieged us in tiny room at one of the keeps. Only [FU] members held until the end. It was epic. If they pushed it a bit more harder.
I will wait gf from ours opponents.

Myself the proud member of [FU] guild. Our www’s numbers arounf 20+ online.

The thing is that we [Xaoc] have players from GMT+4 to GMT+12 time zones. When you have 5am in EU, almost all of us already has 8am. Although not everyone is eager to wake up at 8am, this time difference helps us a little. Our main problem is that our guild practically don’t have people at night because we already have 4am when it’s only 1 am in EU (:
But i really like the situation during the day. Difficult defs all over the map, some interesting tactics from you. This week’s matchup is interesting.

Short report (thanks to our guild members who helped with it) from yesterday’s battle

[01.10.2012] Current match-up: Seafarer’s Est vs Blacktide vs Baruch Bay

Monday did not greatly changed the situation, as we had hoped. We occupy a stable second place. Morning it became easier, speeding up to 500+ points, but not for long. By the afternoon we were sent to the second place, in the evening were third on points in 15 minutes. There were moments when Seafarer had 400 points, and we – 100-150.

Today we haven’t got very interesting moments. In the morning we were working on the tactics of a large group and mi?rodefenses. In the middle of the day tried to split as usual, but we were killed by the Seafarer‘s zerg on Seafarer borderland and we were on the 2nd place from 12 AM. Finally returned to the tactics of a large group and mi?rodefences. Came back to the first place, but after a couple of hours heavily paid for it. 5 people were not able to detain 3 golems in upgraded Hills at Baruch and we lost upgraded keep, our zerg had no time to help. In the evening we haven’t got any upgraded defenses. But in not upgraded keeps, we could not foothold and knocked down by Seafarer.

Seafarer shows better game then Blacktide for now, but we are going to do our best!

so it wasn’t 30+ xaoc who zerged 3 of us at the borderlands, managed to take half of that while still having enough players to also take sm at 5am gmt? must have been an imposter guild trying to ruin your “reputation”! but honestly, night capping is apart of the game so no need to straight up lie about it

However at about 5am Gmt+1 (few hours after server reset), the people who were left online had to deal with what seemed a 1000 man guild filling up WvW all of a sudden (Xaoc). It seemed you had people watching on other maps all the time and sending people accordingly.

seems i missed this post, which is basically confirming my suspensions of you being all places at once at 5 o’clock in the morning

not complaining or anything because like i said, night capping is fair game but attempting to protect your guilds rep by lying isn’t exactly the best way to go about it

5am isnt night either, its early morning… nightcappers are those that start between 12pm and 1am and keep it going untill early morning (CEST)
we have people running around from seafarer 8am in the morning as well(myself every now and then), you call them night cappers?

a guild of 1500 people logging in at 5am to cap everything, even in the borderlands, are nightcappers, i think you failed to read that me and 2 guilders were pvping at 5 am aswell and i don’t think you understand what i’m saying

[02.10.2012] Current match-up: Seafarer’s Rest vs Blacktide vs Baruch Bay

Today is a day of contrasts. Gorgeous morning, for 8 hours take 400+ points in 15 minutes. But at the same time, huge drawdowns in the evening. Here occurred psychological attack, call it so. Our antagonists were crushed before they were able to fill maps and stabilize the situation. As a result, people lose interest in wvwvw and they went to rest on PvE. For a long time, even in Eternal did not have a queue. On the part of the borderlands queries still does not back.

As a result, today we have the strongest subsidence were during the war with Seafarer, as many as 50 points in 15 minutes. That we were able to retrieve in the morning and afternoon, was almost lost in the evening. But at night, traditionally not our time and this is new loss of points.

Seafarer map had bag, all players teleports in one place, around us Seafarers built sieges. But don’t think that the absence of this bug would change the global balance of power.

Your’s 5am is our’s 8am, and it’s morning for us. Also your’s midnight is our’s 3am, what you use to make gap. Morning burst is just answer to night loss.

And our online far to 1500, especially in the morning.

Am sorry to say but Blacktide and Baruch Bay don’t even try at evening with is boring, the DE server it was more fun fights but night capping kittened it up, now it don’t mater that Blacktide have 99% off map at night when they and especially Baruch Bay don’t tries.
Las night we had all except 1 supply camp on Seafares rest borderland and then finally Blacktide and Baruch Bay had a lot off players and did a simultaneous attack on DB keep and on SH keep with ended up that we had to let Blacktide take DB but we stopped Baruch Bay and after about 30min they gave up and 1hour later we had DB back again.

Day summary in pictures

PS In many heads stuck opinion that someone in primetime stronger, he is strongest at all. It is not so. This is not an arena of equal terms, this is 24/7 war and only final score reflects the resulting force of the server, that is absolutely correct. Absolutely does not matter which way they do it. Every server would have sold their souls to get the same night guild, but say on the forum that night war sucks, but all dream of the same night wars at home.

This clearly show how good is the current system. One server totally dominate during primetime, so the other 2 servers decide to not fight back in that time, but to find gap times without so much present of Seafarer to PVE the doors.

Conclusion:
- Greens dominates primetime.
- Reds dominates night.
- Blues dominates morning.

Looking for PvP in the WvW. Great job ANet!!!

Yep, that is problem. I don’t get how for someone is fun to play at night, or early morning when there is no players and you just pve against door and NPC. But ok that is their problem. My problem is that because of that, we play against servers that are not even a little challenge in prime time.

This is all about effort and reward ratio. Last week Kodash and us were fighting alot and were close, Elona was not on same level then after 3-4days in the match they just dissapeared for prime-time and mass logged night and day and went from 3rd to 1st while avoiding any actual fighting of the oposite servers.
I will try to explain why is annoying when that hapends: compare a WvWvW battle with a commercial television 1 week program. WvWvW rewards points and TV gets rewarded by $ from commercials they run. They are bouth non stop.
In WvWvW you get rewarded same points in night as you would get in prime-time, a TV station that would ask advertisers to pay the same amount for all times of the day will get laughed at.
In prime-time you get the big bucks…they dont get nor ask nearly a 10% of that for the adds they run when is nighttime and teleshopping time.
Now, are the people watching TV at night able to do just that? YES. Will the same companyreward the TV station the same amount of $$ for prime-time as teleshopping time? No they wont.
Why wont they do it? Because a “Dancing with the dolyaks” tv show in prime-time gets 4milion viewers and is 40% market share and is worth 5k $ an add. Now a re-run of same “Dancing with the dolyaks” show at late night has 50k viewers and represents 90% if market share at that time but is worth 5$ an add and not 12k $ which Anet pays in WvWvW in current system.
Current match-up: Blacktide are good, they stood and fought during week-end early week but gave up on confronting and just play mornings. Baruch Bay are sort of a remixed Churchill quote: “Never have so many morons owed so much to a few nightcappers” like these ones do. I dont get it…FR has strong servers, DE has strong servers. SP has one server and is kitten, is weird really weird.

Good fights and good times, altough I wish the matchup was more balanced (we at Seafarer stomp during prime time, you guys do it by night, while Baruch Bay really isn’t a threat for the whole day :P).
That defense at your garrison in our bordelands during the first days was epic! Those freaking trebs on the vista, man!

[04.10.2012] Current match-up: Seafarer’s Rest vs Blacktide vs Baruch Bay

From 8am to 4pm (?ET + 2) we kept well. It was hard enough to manage 30-50 people to keep up to 4 maps. But successfully held 400+ points all the time but in the evening, as usual in 100-150 points. Today at evening we not spray forces on the cards, so at overall it was not as difficult as in the past days and more comfortable than when we have 15+ antagonists on the map and the enemies of 30-50+ antagonists. During the day smaller sags and lost upgraded keeps later than in last days that have resulted in a greater number of points.

Honestly prime time fighting is all that matters with an emphasis on fighting. Who cares if you can hold and manage night/early morning pve capping with little or no resistance.

It’s only a matter of time before anet does something about odd hour cappings what will you do then to gain back points ? pve capping is not tactics its a resort from people who cannot contend on the field of battle.

In last week we faced with decreased online, even at primetime blacktide haven’t got queries or have it for one-two maps.

In start of week there were many interesting fights, we can’t describe it all, but all people that faced with these battles had great pleasure.

It is nice to fight Xaoc, really is the only “real” opponent in the battlefield, at least the only one showing some kind of organization and tactics. But what I can not understand is why you have to do an alarm clocking at 8am of your time (5am CET) instead to continues with the fights in the afternoon for a stupid score system.

I enter in WvW to PvP and in the moment that there are “no opponents” or we are zerging is plaing boring so I tent to leave WvW. For that reasons, I have difficulties to understand what is the fun in PvDoors.

If Anet make it, we make some changes for us, but now we use that strategy and sure that it is best choise for us and of course we always attempting to improve it. If Anet make wvwvw only for primetime, it would be quite different game. Also I should say, that such war not so easy, that you think.

[05.10.2012] Current match-up: Seafarer’s Rest vs Blacktide vs Baruch Bay
Today well fought, better than in previous days. Never sink to 100 points as usual. Weekend effect, more Blacktide people the maps easier to gain the necessary weight to attacks. Most of the day worked on all maps in microgroups of 5-8 people and helped take allies keeps and coordinated the work. We met Xeno Tavern guild. They fought on one of the maps in the middle of the day, we took it all and then Xeno Tavern with allies kept the whole map decent time.

Closer to the 5pm we attacked by Obskura guild on Blacktide, so our jump stoped and points became gradually creep down. Obskura well coordinated guild strong guild, but global strategic thinking not so good.

Good day, and really enjoi it. Good score all day, a lot more people, a sense of closeness weekend.

[06.10.2012] Current match-up: Gunnars Hold vs Blacktide vs Aurora Glage

As usual, the first day of the match the most difficult. In the morning zerg everywhere, but the enemies clearly nicely. Aurora, promising to defeat us, in the morning on the third place, although the gap on us and small. Gunnar on the first, although their separation is still not too critical, though not small – 9000. Let’s see how active they are at night. And how much we will be able to dominate in the morning to make up for sagging. In our last match with Gunnar and Aurora we have a lot to win back the morning weekdays. In the evening there was a swing here.

On maps, holding a piece of Gunnar and Blacktide, there are two big our group. On the morning, Squad Commander of the Health Potion drove people on Eternal . As a result, all day Eternal is stable. Morning jumped on all maps and kept keeps on all three, managing to beat anywhere. By the middle of the day gave Gunnar Castle. Aurora looks quite pale, Gunnar better for them.

Well, what was a close fight between BT and AG until now turned into a joke during night with BT capping everything, taking all 3 orbs and almost doubling their previous score between us in about 12h.

AG simply does not have any night presence and when the other servers don’t either, they get roflstomped (see last week).

It’s 24/7 war, so it’s useless to look for justification of your server, guilds, players…For example, AG also have some russians guilds, that can fight in the morning, but why did they sleep?:)

For now, BT has a problem with late evening/night online, so we are loosing in fight with Gunnar..

[07.10.2012] Current match-up: Gunnars Hold vs Blacktide vs Aurora Glage

Sunday is traditionally a good day for us. Consistently high online on all maps, but even on Sunday in primetime can go to the borderland without queries, at least for one. In the morning there were a few difficult fights with Gunnar’s defenders that per night gained a very good advantage on points and dug in many keeps. Only by 10:30 defeat all upgraded keeps on all the maps. And in one of keeps even lost 40 minutes and had back again after hour. But this time, we came up with five golems and castle quickly fell despite fierce defense. Defenders upset and went to sleep =)

Poured into upgrades 30+ gold in the morning, and received 5 keeps with waypoints, so for a long time we protect them. First keeps began to fall only to 6pm in Moscow and provides us with a good advantage. Of the interesting things, we well coordinate with the Xeno Tavern on Gunnar’s map and captured the entire lower part of the map completely knocking out Aurora.

Coming from GH and trying to defend against your early morning rush (on all 3 maps, yep i was the yellow asura necro. SUN) i think your server will win because of this, whoever can night/morning cap before prime time have the biggest advanges. So far we have taking it back keep by keep in the day/evening time, but lets see how the work days goes.
I had quite a few good fights againts you guys, hope to have more thou out the week. o)

Today took just gorgeous day and for today I can put a solid A, all Xaoc and Blacktide. From early morning until the evening held the advantage in the end turned out to compensate all night and catch up with Gunnar and overtake 5000 as for the same time yesterday.
According to our guilds. Happy heard that NoLimit actively attack Eternal. Health potions with WIC in the morning kept all Blacktide for long time. In the evening WIC coordinate with us on Aurora borderland. Xeno Tavern (polish guild) with us in TeamSpeak, and in broken English we coordinate with them on Gunnar borderland. Slowly worked out the actual mechanisms of coordination between those who really willing to fight, and not an agreement on papers and forums. The result today is regularly captured by 100% as a whole map of Gunnar and Aurora. Eternal was stable.
Second day actively engaged WvWvW in Xaoc International and act independently. Accustom people to the WvWvW event, but yes, there forces not so massive as russian Xaoc. So it’s like that we will be needed to buy Squad commander’s book to international Xaoc. I think this is the biggest breakthrough. In Xaoc international enormous potential, given the number of people willing to step in and take every day.
In general, last day left the most positive impression.

Coming from GH and trying to defend against your early morning rush (on all 3 maps, yep i was the yellow asura necro. SUN) i think your server will win because of this, whoever can night/morning cap before prime time have the biggest advanges. So far we have taking it back keep by keep in the day/evening time, but lets see how the work days goes.
I had quite a few good fights againts you guys, hope to have more thou out the week. o)

Its looks like a time zones war, and we decided to gather on the early morning, because its not really to retake sag on primerime (this is not entirely true, sifarer’s rest showed this last week). But GH have night zerg, witch wecan not stop before sunrise =)

[09.10.2012] Current match-up: Gunnars Hold vs Blacktide vs Aurora Glage

Today had a excellent day and it finally proved that it is possible to compensate night sag with morning online. You should have to understand that with only morning battles impossible rise over 5-8 top. We retrieved 12 500 that missed on night, then 10 000 gap (which was earlier) and went out to 9000 advantage. Here is the first place! If Gunnar sharply not intensify, we will have a very good chance to take first place with wide margin.

All borderlands should be fully upgraded to 1-2am and generally we upgrade their, and it costs us a lot. Spent 50+ guild gold and this does not include gold spent by guild members. But 5-6 upgraded keeps with siege weapons give us a great advantage in the afternoon and even in evening. As many money we investing, so longer we hold a big advantage.

Yes you are using your advantage. upgrade everything and enjoy the lead. Whenopponents become online in prime time you are more than ready to defend your assets with minimal force. I have no intention of accusing you of doing anything unfair, still its a legit tactic but I want to ask one thing. Is it FUN to win over undefended keeps?

I can ask you the same question – Is it FUN to upgrade your keeps and use your night advantage, when we have 12pm-2AM and our forces are small? I think it’s useless to discuss night or morning capping – each server tries to win and do everything for this…
Its a war, not only fun. Sometimes you need to do something that isn’t funny…

I am not trying to debate over the legitimacy of night/morning capping. I am asking for fun aspect. In my case there are allways people to fight when I am playing. It is by no means 1 way battle. I am enjoying the fights we have when we have the opportunity, thanks for this, I also enjoy your battlereports. When Blacktide go to bed there is still Aurora Glade to fight. I do not see those hours but if we have domination during late night, it is not done intentionaly for the sake of nightcapping. We have lost to actual nightcappers quite a lot. At the moment Blactide main force and GH have just 3-4 hours difference for primetimes. If our people get assets without any defenders online its still not fun, the question applies to them.

Somebody has a possibility to play in the morning, somebody in the evening… For example, i can play only 2-3 hours from 18-21 CET. And i have fun during this hours. But it’s impossible to have fun for all 24 hours each day – sometimes it may be boring, sometimes – interesting. But as i mentioned in the post before – it’s a war and we want to be in top of EU servers. So we are looking a best way to take maximum points, trying different mechanisms and tactics.

And a little about fun – there are some other moments of WvWvW, not only points for server. For example, many people have no good equip or even they aren’t 80 lvl yet, so they need karma&exp points/gold coins…

So, it’s 11 CET now – what’s the problem? Maybe it’s your problem – your guilds, amount of people, organization? I think, it’s a wrong idea to say something bad about actions and organization of other servers. As for me, at first you should try to solve problems of your server. If u have small night/morning/afternoon/evening online – > try to find a solution for this.
