SoR BL has been a blast tonight. Hopefully we give these T1 people the idea that yes we are actually in this match up.

From my (rather limited, admittedly) experience in this matchup, I think the reason why you see a lot of SoR and BG people disappointed is because DB has been running away from a lot of fights, even when you have comparable numbers. Also, I’ve seen more than a few 5-10 man teams going about their business, and SoR/BG don’t really play like that.

Take it for what you want, but that’s what I’ve seen.

Funny you mention this. I stomped a group of tsym yesterday with a few people and they went scampering back to their keep when there was even numbers.

ohh this right here is gonna be the start of sor vs db in the forums.

If you cant take it dont dish it…I know what I saw.

Your eyes deceive you. The only thing Tysm drops is sick beats by Coron Bale. They certainly don’t drop bags.

Nice save on that fully upgraded Stonemist, Blackgate!!!

Blackgate, I had tons of fun between Aldon’s and Rogue’s. If we could do that all day, I’d be eternally grateful! However, we’d probably run out of merchants. Xoxo

What interests me more is which server will be the resident third in tier 1.

So, uhhh… where exactly did JQ’s [WARD] and [Aco] go? My former guildies are seeing a couple of those tags on SoR, but I don’t want to jump into making any conclusions.

They just transferred to Sanctum of Rall.

Out of curiosity, are you a girl?

Aww, bless your heart.

Avenge.1478:

My first day back in WvW since June, and I am greeted by having to command against a BT+RISE+LoTD map zerg :|!

Good fights tonight guys.

So the night was pretty uneventful?

Well, we know that Smokee and HB is online, and I have posted where IRON is playing. Maybe we only heard half of the story, maybe it was they was coming for IRON while we was sleeping like the boogie man?
It kinda makes sense, they made their “excuses” to avoid a GvG and we will be easier targets with half of us offline xD

MEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

HB= 15-20 players

IRON= 200+

Not sure why you would give such a small guild so much attention, especially in a time slot where SoR is the clear winner

Oh wow, my recruiting skills sure have paid off! Wrex will be so pleased!

Xenon.2089:

Props to the two iron guys that gave us a fight in bluebriar on sor bl.
You guys know how to bring it but we got the upper hand in the end : )

Thanks for the compliment, most people just get upset.

Zhrek.9781:

Man, the Gif’s this week was the best thing going for this thread, and the Mods lock it, how lame. Guess its back to reading the same arguments over and over and over and over.

and over……

What am I, chopped liver?

Darkjoy.3092:

I really miss the old SOR . Proud in third place.Yet first place always in holding the high and mighty moral ground. A top the clouds on the “greatest server community ever” they were able to cast down judgement on those "playing for points, pulling over time, recruiting " . The list of heathen sins where endless . But it was not to last . They tasted the forbidden fruit of victory. The corruption spread . The righteous battle cry " we are about the fights " dulled across the heavens . The once mighty Sanctum was no longer free of space and time zones , but now obsessed by it. Finally God summoned Indo to top of the mount and commanded him to have his people return their window resolution to how it was intended. They screamed across the forums in defiance . So God cast them below with the defiled mortals . To scrap, struggle , toil and steal every last point for that fleeting taste of victory that fuels their dark souls.

I have no idea what you’re talking about. We like to win battles, not imaginary points.

Zulubeast.8519:

I dream of a world where the all the large WvW guilds across t1 and t2 get together and choose another 6 servers to spread out to and repopulate, creating a slowly formulating 12-way tie across four tiers, giving everyone little to no lag, fun fights, and less stress overall.

However, that’s the hard way to solve our problems. There’s too many variables to wrap your mind around after a two minutes, and since people only seem to ever give two minutes of thought before posting on these forums, why bother right? Lets continue flame baiting each other instead of brainstorming ideas!

Granted, it’s idealistic, but in the end, this game is ours to play. ANet will always continue to try and make it better, but they have a 2 week timeframe to keep updating and they have a much larger scope of a game than just WvW. If we want to change how we play, we must do it for ourselves.

The scope of that simple idea of disseminating across 12 servers instead of stacking 3 is immense. But just thought I’d throw it out there!

I wish we could all get along like we used to in middle school!

Zen speaks for the whole server.

I wish we had incentive and capabilities to deliberately double team. Oh wait, I actually enjoy a challenge.

Running in those blobs 24/7 is a challenge now? You almost had me.

For you it may be a challenge. Fortunately, we tend to split into smaller groups unless gathering to stomp a larger zerg.

WvW new build in one hour but they closed it in 10min lol… kitten SoRBL was fun for us today. Hope you guys enjoy the fight NYS :P

@IRON, i find it strange that you guys just moved to SoR like weeks ago but some of your forum warriors acted like been in tier1 with us for a long long time like they know everything. Funny indeed.

We are quick to learn /flex

Umm, no. It’s typical European bravado and egotism. But hey, in the majority of cases that ‘we’ run into you – [IRON] – I sincerely love the copious amounts of bags you all drop.

That’s rich. [IRON] doesn’t drop bags, we just get them.

I’d like to thank the academy.

BG has more weekend warriors, it’s that simple.

If we could not report posts that you disagree with, that’d be great.

I forgot you could be in all four maps at once, and I also had forgotten that there were scouts all over the map that see absolutely everything and report it directly to Teamspeak! Quite the oversight on my part.

Fact.5908:

The current meta ISN’T to throw numbers at a target. There are more tactics involved than that, and the top guilds continually involve and try to improve their play.

…right.

Actually, I can concede that one since it takes a strategic mind to figure out how to deploy 50 people in the most effective way to take a single target. :P

Actually, many top guilds have broken into smaller groups and try to take on larger blobs with smaller numbers. Just because your guild doesn’t challenge itself, don’t think it’s the meta.

Ummmmm….I’m glad we’re in agreement? While that isn’t the meta for the top guilds from each server, it very much is for the rest.

Then I’ll continue to enjoy their bags?

You seem to be in a mood for animated gifs today, but this one really cracked me up. I bet you even made that face while typing your reply.

Mhmm.

Of course not, variables fight stagnation. It makes the game more fun, and also makes it more unpredictable.

My personal highlight of the night is having Smokee emo log after IRON wiped him hard. IRON 1 HB 0

Really?……

OMG you manged to kill the 10-15 or so HB that was out and about tonight. WOW i mean +30 active guild manged to kill half the numbers. Well done there.

GvG? It would be an interesting sight to behold. Maybe that can settle things. Maybe IRON can GvG RK too.

Unfortunately, Smokee declines GvG invites. He’s afraid of even numbers, obviously.

you seem really happy with 1 wipe.

ok, score is , HB 28, IRON 1.

:)

congrats on recruiting your new EU guild SOR. you really are owning EU timezone atm.

Yeaaaaa, ok…

So much fun!

And with 15 people, none the less!

I love looting my bags off the corpses of fallen scrubs.

SoR has more numbers in certain timezones, while blackgate and jade quarry overpower us in other timezones. But it’s not always a matter of numbers. A highly organized guild can wipe out a large zerg with smaller numbers, superior tactics always come out ahead. Not acknowledging that fact and saying WvW is based solely upon numbers is quite humorous.

People tend to not follow dumb commanders.

Don’t go the WoW, SWTOR, and every other MMO out there route.

Take what Ultima Online: Age of Shadows did with Doom Gauntlet, and make it better. Already in GW2 we’re seeing servers working together in orr with dynamic events. Why not extent this server PvE philosophy into raids? Open world raids.

What the gauntlet did was have multiple rooms, each filled with bosses. Their difficulty (and number of bosses) would scale with the amount of players. Each had a minuscule chance of dropping the highest level items. After each room, another would open, and so on until you unlocked all of the rooms and the final boss would spawn. The story was horrible, and the mechanics were medieval, but Ultima Online proved that open world raids were possible.

The dynamic events aren’t bad. But I’d like a dungeon area where people can go anytime, and join right in on the action, and actually make it difficult. Meaning it’ll take the whole server a week to finally learn the fight and move on to the next one. It’d be amazing.

I sent items in game to my guild master while he was in the midst of a server transfer. The items were never received by him, and were never returned to me. I sent test mail after the transfer and it sent.
I got a response from a GM saying that mail can’t be received if your inbox is full, which is not the issue I was having whatsoever. It wasn’t just random mail, I had expensive materials totaling around 10g at the time of purchase, and I’d really like for this to be resolved!

Piccolo.7296:

I hope AA/TL back up their words. They claim they haven’t really been playing WvWvW and instead powerleveling people to 80 for the 1 week battles.. Hopefully they show up to play this week.

If ET gets matched against HoD and SB and ET comes out ahead of them both, then all that talk AA/TL has done was actually truth and not excuses.

We’ll be performing to the best of our ability. I should edit to say that the outcome of the match depends upon the level of cooperation between Stormbluff and Henge.

Gathering signatures would be a great idea, although it’d have to be a large number and at moderate sum of gold.

Ticket #: 120902-017847

I sent mail to my guild leader, may I add it was an expensive batch of materials (15 Powerful Venom Sacs, 15 Globs of Ectoplasm, 90 Spools of Gossamer Thread,, 52 Gossamer Scraps) while he was transfering servers, and the items were never received. I sent mail afterwards and it went through, but the items were never returned to me or made it to him.

Yes, I’m 100% positive his name was listed in the mail window.
