Guild Wars 2

Love running with these guys!

We have a few OCx though it is now well known that we lack overall OCx coverage on DR which means that every night we have the zergs port in. So if you want fights and to help expand off a well established but small group of OCx players then DR could work. I don’t think you will find a server with high OCx coverage outside of t1 or t2 as that is a huge part of why servers make it there is due to the great OCx coverage when most servers lack people at those times.

I think it is obvious the “server in question” is DR. We have been last for a while and losing was our norm. So much like Arghore above stated we learned how to enjoy the game in more ways then one. We then offered that mentality of win or lose as long as you have fun it’s worth it. We lost to GoM some 15 weeks in a row but we showed up and fought every day knowing we wouldn’t win. The loses and total beatings we took while we were down changed us. I don’t think anybody can comment on the “competitive health of WvW” without playing t6 or below for a few weeks. Where you are able to flip an entirely fortified BL with 4 people and 1 alpha golem due to zero people and zero fights something is wrong.

We are fighters and wanted to fight. To do that we could either leave our home and stack another server leaving DR literally empty OR we could rise from ashes gathering people to get to those big fights we want. The game is enjoyable to me when I get that 2-3 hour long bay fight which is happening nearly every night for me now but in lower tiers getting a decent fight took a week or two and usually ended up being preplanned for a Guild V Guild battle.

So a server is offering to pay up to half for a guild to transfer. Earlier we reviewed that total players is randomly estimated to equating to 400 which would cost 90,000 gold. We also assumed all WvW players are super broke and need to buy all gold through gem transfer method which strangely hasn’t caused inflation in the system which would by $20,000. All guess work.

This thread is a joke. Servers only rise and fall due to transfers, otherwise we would all be as miserable as TC is facing BG and JQ hating life. DR is working as a server to grow faster as we thrive in competition. Some day we or another server will fall only to have another attempt to take its place. We got tired of T8 after sitting there for months and opted to move up. Best part about the funding DR is able to pull for transfers is 100% voluntary and new guilds that transferred tend to end up donating to the cause. Asside from that being sponserred by Trump helps a bunch to. Love you Donald.

Keep prices as are. Any guild can pull funds to give the main commanders of thier server/guild the tag. We held a fundraiser a bit ago on my server and raised over 2k gold in like 2 days which is enough to get enough colored tags to have a few in each time zone at least.

Yaks: 1239 / 591 (2.1:1)
Camps: 1,088 / 97 (11.22:1)
Towers: 459 / 109 (4.2:1)
Keeps: 200 / 165 (1.2:1)
Stonemist: 24 / 18(1.33:1)

Those are my ratios for 394 hours of game time.

DR nightcrew does have a surprisingly high amount of females, enough that they run a ladies only Zerg with one of the DMD leaders leading it. We obviously perfer you are on teamspeak to hear whispers and such to know where everyone is going but we also post in map chat prior to switching. After transfers a lot of guilds don’t really use teamspeak. We do have it set up so all guilds can have thier own private room as well as a few central grouping/roaming rooms people can join to get people together. Typically nightcrews work in silence just taking all the keeps.

I think the main reason DR can que maps unlike most servers is since we have most of our server using one central communication line that we all hop together as we typically try to paper things at same time rather then having everyone being disorganized and hitting 2 or 3 separate maps.

One of the issues most servers have is the lack of working together, if you have 2 keeps under attack you will fight over which one gets defended and most guilds will end up fighting over that. We all work to defend both rather then fussing over which one needs more help. We have several guilds that work closely with each other for defense and offense, rather then 1 giant guild. By having several guilds and several leaders it allows us to have assignments for each week to work towards a common cause which is to put up a great fight and have fun. We obviously want to win but losing a few times to a server doesn’t break us. We are aiming to climb and improve every week. So when we go against IoJ and CD sometime in the following weeks we won’t cry and give up if we lose once or twice. We will learn and adapt and hopefully be able to eventually win and move past the tier into next like we have done all the way to where we are.

We are climbing and growing by working together and building an unheard thing in this game called community. We are giving guilds a home that have been harrassed and abused on their current servers and not appreciated for what they were contributing. So the next time you go to a fellow server mate of yours and call him stupid or something rude just think that he doesn’t need to put up with you or your guild, he can transfer away and hurt you. The guy that stands in the runes and just tells you where the enemy is moving is useful even if he doesn’t know how to use his basic skills. Everybody in this game is useful in some way and doesn’t deserve to be put down. For to long larger guilds bullied roamers and other guilds for doing one thing or another so we offer a home to those guilds and tell them they don’t need to put up with being bullied anymore. We have taken guilds from all over for various reasons, whether that is because they wanted to move up with us in rankings, beat the guild that bullied them, or simply wanted a different play environment. We welcome them all. We are a place for people to come and enjoy the game for what is has to offer and let them play how they want to play, not tell them how to play and what to do.

I never see these ques that people speak of. EB and home gets ques reset then we send one or 2 guilds to higher ranked server as best I tell with roamers poking a 3rd. Maybe this last reset I missed managed to que 3 but I have never seen it. Be lucky to que EB itself outside of NA prime any day other then the 1st 1-2 of reset.

Forever on page 4.

I have been on DR for about 2 months now and really enjoy the WvW community. Very friendly server to be on. Would recommend it to those higher tier servers looking to do something other then map blob. It is rare to see a que on our server since we are still growing.
