Guild Wars 2

but no matter how we look at it, “zerging” or simply amassing a huge number of army, charging in your doors is also a tactic. and it works.

yea at least AR landed 2nd spot this week. Fun goes on!

Come down and join us in Tier 7. We’ve been here in this tier 7 for like 4 weeks. Every week is full of surprises. BP kicks off with a big gap, then us GoM will at some point catch up then this week, surprisingly AR took the lead but then BP fought back.

Really, everyone is having a blast here in Tier 7. And the way I see it, AR, BP & GOM will be fighting each other for the next 2 weeks.

Hello Gaile,

My guildmate asked me to follow up on his case. Its been 6 days since he last heard from you.

121115-002154

Thanks!

Is it just me or did you guys noticed an Ele from BP with [NOM] tag that is uberly strong and taking down a whole group?

Hacking or not, that Ele is strong and its quite strange.

Enough with the zerg issues guys. All part of the game.

Lets talk about something else like how AR suddenly wake up after few weeks of being bottom.

Lets hear battle stories from AR’s side

Nice! AR is picking up the pace this week. This Tier is really full of surprises.

+1 for this thread.

Great work to everyone on GoM tonight. Keep this up, all you other commanders out there. We hit 2nd tonight, now lets continue the climb.
My guild has had a blast this morning holding the land we did in BP, and an even better time giving you guys over at AR borderlands a headache we hope you won’t soon forget Great job to AR defending Bay the way they did, though. Lucky most of our members had fallen asleep at their computers!
Special thanks to all the guilds that collaborated with the [Áí] guild tonight. Teamwork. That’s what I like to see for GoM!

We reached 2nd before i logged out yesterday, good thing you guys were able to maintain the scores! great job GoM!

Btw Nsidiously, I think we need to have a meeting again. Just updates and stuff.

Too bad I havent been online today… I hope i’ll catch you guys again when I’m on.

Enough of the zerg issue. no matter how you look at this game, zerg will always be there.

Don’t complain about zerg, this game is designed to be a massive war. expect a zerg.

I’m just happy that GoM is not leading the scores this week. At least we get to stay here in this tier.

Edit: I just read the whole thread and got my answers lol.

To SoS, Youre all welcome to attack Green. But if when I’m on, expect us to wipe you guys out just like last time. Coz I know how you guys move

The idea is, we need something that can motivate us to keep on going

Who is “we”? Pardon my ignorance, but I am from the crowd who plays pvp games for the game itself, and the idea of needing some sort of time sink reward is foreign to me. “We” must have vehemently hated video games from the 90’s and before.

“We” are those people who are different from “You”,

Yes the feeling of zest and fun in killing/pvp is there, but take note that not all players are the same as “You”.

We cannot deny it. It will happen. Yes it’ll just be the minority of the population but it will happen.

Different people have different views.

if ANet wont come up with something like a guild ranking system, or setup an NPC selling cool looking armors that can be bought using badges, soon WvW will lose some of its fans. The idea is, we need something that can motivate us to keep on going.

Ryuujin.8236:

Arcxander.9836:

badges are useless… it doesnt matter.

You need 500 badges as part of creating a legendary weapon. So if you plan to get a legend they certainly won’t be useless.

Well my point is, things that you can buy with badges arent that good and cannot get you motivated to collect more. And as for legendary, that item is not applicable for all. So…. for me imho, its useless.

Thats why I go wvw for the pvp and fun. not for the badges.

Human-specific skills are useless… i hope ANet will do something about this

Treb battles is one of my favourite in WvW….

Hey Razzer Fel, im not sure if you remember me, I was the one who danced on your corpse at the Lord’s Room in Overlook. Then you PMed me and asked me to dance on your other 2 members corpse rofl. But dont get me wrong, didnt mean to disrespect or anything. Just for the lulz if you know what i mean.

I’m one of the commanders in GoM. and i Just want to repost this….

Bro, you might wanna try Gate of Madness.

Our server suffered a lot in the past weeks. but those events were actually blessing in disguise for the server. All those Egoistic/Braggart guilds and commanders left our server, the ones left are all open minded players. I never regret why I stayed in GoM.

The commanders in our server right now though inexperienced but they know the word “respect” which is for me better than having experienced commanders but complains a lot and doesn’t even respect fellow players/commanders/guilds.
If someone leads WvW even with badge or not, players do listen and cooperate.

And if you notice this forums, theres not much QQers from our server posting here.

GoM right now is slowly picking up the pace.

Lyonell.1753:

I been playing in Borlis Pass since release, mainly cause my GF randomly picked the server since almost everything else was full. For the most part the server was good at the begging. But things deteriorated fast, then went up and down and so on endlessly. Normally I am very loyal to the community I join, but Borlis community has slowly become very acid to say the least. Personal attacks against the commanders in WvW, massive Q_Q, not only Q_Qing but kitten style Q_Qing like: “AV pwn us cause they got many thiefs and mesmers.”

Haha all 3 of of us were there, gom ar bp. Superb pvp!!

From this point til the end of this week, I already informed the pvpers in Eternal BG to focus on whoever has the most number of zerg online. if Red shows a lot of resistance, then we will attack red. same with blue.

Godfather.8217:

Arcxander.9836:

Successfully conquered Eternal Battlegrounds. Wiped out AR zerg and finally taking down the last fort (the fully fortified & supplied) Red Keep.

Good game ARs!

lol this is funny,

trying to brag because GOM = zerg fest army, while the other two can’t fit more than 20 players on a map.

This whole week has been dull and boring, I’ve stayed up late at nights to only witness just how each server seems to “conquer”

I’ll start with mine, so it doesn’t seem like i’m favoring one group.

Anvil Rock has about a 20 – 30 size force that hits BP borderlands when they have nobody defending, and we even have a smaller one sometimes hitting and “conquering” eb, while borth servers seem to be away.

GoM – You guys seem to be able to fill two maps with tons of players when you finally wake up from your slumber, the times i’ve witness your PvD playstyle in ARB, is when your going after all our towers and keeps, smashing your entire force into the gates, and honestly you don’t even need siege gear because you have so many players hitting the gates. Wait let’s throw a golem or two so you guys can claim “strategy” and “tactics” was used.

Borlis – Same thing with you guys, you guys run through with large numbers smashing into our gates with similar “conquer” mentality, when honestly it’s just a zerg.

What ever happened to playing against players fella’s, we had so much fun fighting the last two weeks against each other, when did we finally get to the point of figuering out each of our sleeping habits to fight gates instead of players.

My guild held Redlake tower in Gom the other day for 5 hours. After we spent Majority of the day wiping Gom forces chasing our camp raiding party, I had alts of 10 – 15 members from my guild. We defended redlake from GoM and borlis in GoM borderlands from multiple waves/attempts. Eventually GoM must have called in for reinforcements, because we finally lost to double, almost tripple our numbers. We just saw a sea of red. In the end this same force started spawn camping, which at this time we moved on to a different map.

My guild will continue to hit both sides, infact which ever borderland gives us the out manned buff, the better. we will be there to stirr the pot, and hopefully you guys will come out and play and attempt to interfer with our camp raids.

Good luck to all, and let’s continue to have a decent match.

Just to be clear, this is not just about bragging. I’m just trying to share the PVP experience we had with you AR’s. We all had lots of fun, intense PVP with both sides almost having equal numbers.

1. Zerg fest?
- No. AR had the same amount of zerg.

2. Intense PVP clashing?
- Yes. We pushed your zerg back to overlook but then AR was able to gather its troops and pushed us back inside veloka, we fought and defended veloka till everyone of us inside got wiped out.

3. We had tactics?
- Yes. You ARs fell into our trap. Red keep was fully fortified and got full supply in depot. We drained your supplies to 0, We denied you with supply camps. We kept you busy on veloka-pangloss area. You guys were too preoccupied and did not notice our 2 trebs from mendons bombarding the west wall of overlook which was the real attack.

4. Was it a fun experience?
- Definitely Yes.

Again its not about bragging. I said good game to AR because you gave us a good fight when we took overlook. You guys never gave up and showed a great amount of resistance.

Gate of Madness had lots of fun since it reached Tier 7. I can say all of us are having a great time. And I hope we will still be in this tier next week.

Successfully conquered Eternal Battlegrounds. Wiped out AR zerg and finally taking down the last fort (the fully fortified & supplied) Red Keep.

Good game ARs!

Waterbear.2764:

Lets set something aside here. The jumping puzzle is a resource node, just like a supply camp or a tower. Would you complain about someone camping a supply depot with arrow carts? “OMG tell those jerks to stop camping, how are we supposed to get supply?”

You see, when you complete the puzzle, you get free siege blueprints, and tokens which you can use to buy more blueprints. You then proceed to use these blueprints to break doors/walls and generally do unpleasant things to people from other servers. Of course they are going to try and stop you. They should. If you knew someone was going to try and kill you later, and you saw them walking to pick up a gun, and you had a chance to stop them, wouldn’t you?

Thank you so much. I was about to say this.

LOL I thought it was just me.

You’re welcome Axelrod. We also had lots of fun too. specially in Stonemist when AR and BP simultaneously attacked us North and South. Almost all walls on the eastern side is down to 5%. Yet we were able to hold SM til now.

@Razzer Fel, nice clashing with you guys yesterday. I lead the assault in taking SM from BP. it took us quite some time but eventually ripped off your defenses on that room.

I want to have this match-up again next time when there is no Halloween event or anything that can affect WvWers population XD

This is exactly what I predicted after a lot of guilds and players left our server. GoM will go down to the bottom tiers where it should be. It will have the same amount of players to the rest of the bottom tiers. WvW will then be an even match sooner or later. This is the main reason why me and my guild stayed.

We have lost a lot of Commanders and guilds in our server, Everyone in our server is fighting even without commanders now. I commend my fellow GoM players in holding and maintaining the scores and closing the gap from 20k to 5k in just 1day.

+1 to the thread starter, and to all who love WvW

You can use Golem’s Bubble defense

Hilarious indeed.

Go Here GoM players!

Please post your guild info there! Naw!
I’d say we use that website above together with this thread as our communication atm.

Friday night? thats WvW reset already… how about thursday 8am-10am EST

The previous alliance campaign failed because the preparation time was too short. The Alliance rolled out with no strong foundations and no clear expectations of whats gonna happen. In the end, the guilds who put a lot of effort into that alliance gave up and left the server. I was one of the people who spearheaded that alliance campaign. I dont want to repeat the same mistakes. If were gonna make this alliance, we need to take our time and talk about it. and like what you’ve said, “craft the rules” of this alliance in a way that no guild is higher than the others.

Our guild already made a decision. We will stay in Gate of Madness. Were gonna help build the community in this server. We know its not gonna be easy. And We know that its not gonna happen soon.

We from Legion of Ubec [UBEC] will fully support this alliance.

Here are our contacts: Mikitchi, Disturbed, Bruchador or me Jofp.

Good to see you here Commander Raist, its me Jofp.

I’d like to quote this line,

“Its not lost faith in server but in the system.”

After thinking a lot, I realized that its not the players, its not the zerg, not the alliance, not the timezone or whatever. Its actually the flaws of the WvW system.

Yes. We, the remaining loyal guilds in GoM can form an alliance, its a good move. We’ve seen that before. But not until ANet fix the whole WvW system, history will only repeat itself.

+1 very useful for wvw
