Hi there,

as i sometimes roam WvW with my rogue partner, it is fun, sure.
Because almost any encounter is a potential target.

So what is no fun:
trying to get 100% world completion.
Since many weeks there is a complete inbalance regarding wvw.
The balancing of the worlds does not – in any way – work for vabbi.

At good times, Vabbi is able to claim it’s home map.
sometimes a few towers in the other maps (markets never have been a problem).
But then the ultimate zergs strike back.
not skill, not tactics, but sheer mass roll over any resistance.
using arrowcharts, trebuchets, ballistas (etc.) is no use. it is just plain and simple overwhelming numbers.

and i cannot believe that this is fun for the dominating world to really be fun (except for a few lesser gifted players) to have no really existing opposition.
this is an an empty victory…

i would hope something to be changed.
best regards

No, the problem is no solved, just postponed.
And, as your wisdomness may not know or regard, is the fact that transfer lacks guild influence points and guild achievements.
thanks for the only partially constructive reply nevertheless

As for map completion, just ask your opponents kindly whether you can cap some stuff shortly before reset. Your points are so low, it won’t matter much to them anyway.
As for the rest, rally the server and get some comunication. A simple first step would be operation turtle(or “the Yak”, cause Yaks Bend did a good job beating stronger servers all the time with fighting spirit alone): Nothing leaves your borderland alive, nothing gets into your borderland without shedding some skins. Get a server-wide teamspeak going and try to get some guilds to WvW. There is not much more, you can do anyway. All you need is a sizeable zerg and some small havoc squads to kill roamers/scout for zergs. If you can not get that bare minimum of organization needed to claw your way up against a stronger server and keep control of your BL all the time, you at least know the reason, you sit at the bottom of the bottom of the ladder.
Claw your way out or die trying, that’s the only advice, I can give you, if you truly want to achieve something as a server.

Also, there is a second server down in the gutter right now. T9 is basically 2 servers getting trampled at by ever changing servers. Try talking to them. Try allying with them. Any point, you take from your mutual enemy will give your servers great rewards.

Also, actually getting out of T9 is probably impossible, unless you beat your opponents by 400k+ points each week. But that shouldn’t disencourage you. SF ran against the wall countless times. Just bashing the head against the glicko wall, trying to break it. Then Anet extended a helping hand to them. Just concentrate on the opponent in front of you and be warned that you will fight the same matchup for the next 8-16 weeks once you actually start winning.
Your opponents are worse than Ring of Fire and Ring of Fire gets beaten around by a bunch of people as unorganized as us Drakkars. With some organisation, you can surely beat them. Don’t think about superior numbers, just rally your forces at one point, farm a commander tag, if needed, and just concentrate on holding your borderland. If you manage to actually hold stuff in WvW, you will probably experience an influx of PvE players, as low as your total pop may be. Just get people to WvW. That’s all you need to do. 50 man + 10 roamers = 60 guys. With such a force, you should be able to hold your BL forever in the lower tiers. Just try to get that many people to WvW and see how it plays out.

The only crime, turrets committed, is being good against the celestial meta.
The mob has spoken and the turrets shall be burnt at the stake.
