Guild Wars 2

Sanctum, we have one commander during SEA time that regularly drops 5 guild catas for paper structures, just because he can. It’s pretty common. XD

Im actually SEA, not Oceanic, does your population of lovely ladies decline during SEA prime time? Is it a sausage fest? I’m getting sick of sausage. =p

Fauntleroy.4762:

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.

This has convinced me. I’m tired of being a part of an unappreciated nightcrew, and not feel like I’m part of the community. I’m sick of not being able to play the way I want to play, being insulted for using my Spirit Ranger as a commander in WvW, despite my wealth of utility, water fields and lack of dying. I’m sick of being told to play for an arbitrary points tick; I just want to farm bags, I don’t care how I do it, I’d build 6 super ACs and 2 ballis if I have to. I’m tired being told continuously by my server to get on teamspeak, when all there is a cacophony of male voices and I can’t make head or tail what they’re saying. I’m sick and tired of hearing only male voices on teamspeak. Being such a wonderful community, I’m sure Devona’s Rest has attracted ample amounts of lovely ladies I can listen to on voice comms.

Looks like my guild and I, finally, have found a potential server that lets us do whatever the heck we want and not be segregated and belittled for it. #TeamDRftw

Where do I sign up?

Hello Ziffin! Although we’re mostly SEA-based, The Progenitors [RI] from the Crystal Desert server would love to have you with us!

We’re a PvX guild, which means we do a little of everything, though we gravitate more towards this game’s brilliant World vs World gametype (large scale combat, siege battles).

We’re very group oriented, so for team-based content such as WvW we try our best to get everyone to work as a a single unit.

We’re also more than willing to help newcomers with any queries and requests they may have, so feel free to ask away. If we are able, we’ll be there!

Here’s our full guild recruitment message, if you like to know more: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/guilds/recruitment/RI-WvW-focused-PvX-Guild-on-Crystal-Desert/first#post3420835

As for classes, if you like casters (as well as a plethora of options and skills) I’d suggest going for an Elementalist, you can switch between 4 different attunements/elements; fire for damage, water for heals/condition cleanse, etc. Roll Thief if you love stealth, or try out a Mesmer if you want the caster/stealth and misdirection archetype in a single class.

There’s a lot more to this of course, but feel free to contact me if you have any questions regarding the guild, the Crystal Desert server, or just the game in general.

Until next time!

Oh yay, a Malaysian! Greetings fellow kinsman! =D Considering you play during SEA-convenient times, The Progenitors [RI] from the Crystal Desert Server might be the right fit for you.

We’re a WvW-focused PvX guild, about 125+ strong, and the majority of us are from SEA with plenty of Singaporeans, and much crazy to be had. We’re more than willing to help newcomers ease their way into the game, so don’t worry about seeking assistance; if we can, we’ll be there!

Here’s our full recruitment message for your perusal, in case you’re interested: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/guilds/recruitment/RI-WvW-focused-PvX-Guild-on-Crystal-Desert/first#post3420835

About us:
A relatively new addition to CD’s plethora of guilds, [RI] is a 4-month old WvW focused PvX community of intriguing personalities and fun-loving crazies. Originally conceived by a core group of CD’s SEA WvW veterans, [RI] emphasizes team play, camaraderie, and tasteful silliness when tackling all the game has to offer.

Although we have deviated somewhat from our original goal as a WvW guild, [RI] remains invested in building up a guild group capable of dominating within that gametype. We’re currently working on our group composition and cohesion, as well as training upcoming commanders to assist in future matchups.

We have scheduled WvW raids on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 9pm GMT+8, as well as on Sundays at 11pm GMT+ 8, though of course our group runs are not exclusive to these times alone.

We are a fully upgraded guild, with the Gathering and Magic Find buffs running permanently, while the Karma Buff runs roughly 4-5 days a week at the moment. We do ALL Guild Missions with the exception of Guild Trek once a week on Sundays, 9pm GMT+8/ 8am EST.

We are recruiting newbie and veteran Crystal Deserters alike to join our 125+ and growing community! Our most active hours are during SEA prime time, where we average about 25 members online, and 35-ish during the weekends. However, we intend to bolster guild activity outside of these times too, and would love more NA players to solidify our NA contingent.

For WvW during SEA primetime specifically, [RI] is looking for roughly 3-4 Guardians, 2-3 Necromancers, and 2 Elementalists that are interested in zergball-oriented play.

Potential members should take note of the following:

1) Getting the guild to work together is important to us. As such, within team-based gametypes such as WvW, we strongly encourage members to find a balance between catering to their own individual play style, and what will improve the overall effectiveness and enjoyment of the group. This consideration toward the group extends to gear, traits, and utilities as well.

2)Keep an open mind, as our guild banter gets a little crazy on a daily basis.

3) Be willing to take constructive criticism and learn.

4) Use of Teamspeak 3 is NOT mandatory, though very strongly encouraged particularly for certain dungeons, guild missions, and our WvW raids for improved coordination and communication. You’d get to know some of us a lot better too! You do not need to have a mic; when it comes to organizing/executing our guild activities, all we need are your ears.

5) [RI] is a semi-representation guild. We do not, and will not, enforce a 100% representation requirement as we feel allowing members freedom of choice, particularly when [RI] is unable to cater to their needs at a particular time for instance, is a better alternative than making them feel chained to us. However, we expect members to take initiative and engage the rest of the guild from time to time, socialize, and to join us for our scheduled raids and missions if able. A guild is more than just a service, it is a community, so please treat it as such.

If our guild interests you, please do not hesitate to drop a whisper/mail to any of [RI]’s contact listed above. Perhaps we could schedule a conversation on our community teamspeak, should you so desire.

Until next time, see you in-game!

To the 20-25 man NSP zerg that spawn camped our mainly [RI] 10-man squad at NSP BL, thanks for the great fights! Oh, and… #SaluteForever =p
