As the name suggests this post will hopefully incite some discussion on the request for ArenaNet to reduce the glicko on t1 NA servers artificially. Currently t1 and t2 are in bubbles of themselves when we know from a fact that the difference in coverage is not so vastly different anymore and with many individuals like my guild quitting the game because t1 has become too stale for us primarily due to the fact that we’re stuck in the same server rotation week in and week out there is no motivation to play anymore.
Arenanet has tampered with ratings in the past in the past they increased t8’s rating as it had decreased too much for any server to be able to escape it.
Just want to hear everyones thoughts on this aswell.

Sea of Sorrows is seeing alot of returning guilds (TSym) and new arrivals from China (Gan), We still need coverage in all sectors to be able to compete with other T2 servers.
Sea of Sorrows has a huge potential for any oceanic commander or small guild looking to get recruit, being the unofficial oceanic server we’re loaded with people during that timezone, however we lack organized bodies to be able to assemble the hordes of militia.

TS still recruitin guys, come for some epic fun timez
Sea of Sorrows http://www.gw2sos.com/index.php
But to name probably in my opinion the best rounded guild on NA servers would be [lion], these guys run a 10-15 man group running from late oceanic to mid Eu and they are crazy coordinated and good in open field, even better in defending and sieging though.
Sea of Sorrows http://www.gw2sos.com/index.php
I like to think the few and not often enough opportunities SF gets to go unpinned we can hold our own just dandy. I think the most often we are able to pull off fights that are strictly for fun and not about an objective also, they tend to be vs OnS and DN and maybe 1 or 2 other TC guilds and the fights are always pretty kitten snappy so I’d put them on that list. I’d like to include HB but its more of an estimate because the chances we do get strictly for fights with them they usually have less so its tougher to gauge.
And that’s why your 35 man guild group plus 15-20 pugs got wiped on engagement against the SoS pug blob tonight on SoS bl, sorry but a 35 man pyro, Agg, EP, Ark, KH group would probably wipe the 50 man SoS blob.

SoS commanders
Eldsvada Dods [TW]-his pug group held their own against EP in a 15v15 scrim
Elizabeth H Frost [lust]- Great commander, puts long hours in aswell.
Scarz [Dx]- Really good EB commander, very skilled technically always knows what’s going on.
Heapse of other good commanders on SoS these are just some of the newer ones who have stood out.

SoS aren’t obsessed with ppt, after 30 mins running with All we were wiping 2 guild groups at a time, within 5 mins of tagging up last night I took BG’s t2 bay and got about 100-200 lootbags the entire night I died maybe 3 times.
Sea of Sorrows http://www.gw2sos.com/index.php
Being an exceptional wvwer im interested in knowing why a SoS guild would have a closed recruitment, since we need more organised wvwers helping us push through our division.
Because we have enough members and I would much rather get our current base established because in the last 3 weeks we got around 30 new members. BEAR are very similar you can consider them to us.
Sea of Sorrows http://www.gw2sos.com/index.php
Oceanic recruitment at this stage is closed, however if you are a exceptional wvwer we will still take you, our late oceanic SEA recruitment is still open
Sea of Sorrows http://www.gw2sos.com/index.php
Transfer to SoS or DB both have healthy WvW/PVE populations aswell, so does Maguuma.
Sea of Sorrows http://www.gw2sos.com/index.php
TS are actively searching for SEA players and oceanics that play a little later

Would you be open to cross server members? Im an aussie in Maguuma >:). Not liking it very much due to virtually no players on at 5pm-12am for us so looking to transfer to SoS
We require all our members to be on SoS, if you do decide to transfer hit me up and I’ll send an invite :-)

Hi guys I’m a new WvW Commander ( just bought it today ) and I’ve been in WvW for months beforehand so I know how this all works. And actually running a Zerg is tougher than I thought.
I plan on running my Guild ( CoSA ) in the upcoming Spring Tournament which is I think 4 days away? Point is I need to make sure I have some stuff 100% down before I start so give me a hand will you?
1. Is it alright to ask my Zerg if anyone else can drop Siege? Ex. Flame Rams because I run out here and there and I don’t know if that’s ok to ask. ( Zerg = Guild + Random people )
2. What’s the best Siege to carry? I run with Arrow Carts, Catapults, Flame Rams, and Trebuchets. That’s the essentials right?
3. How do you calm angry Zerglings? I be respectful and apologize for a mistake but if you mess up once some people just explode on you and it’s really moral dropping to be a Commander. know I’m new at Commanding but I try my hardest 100% 24/7 but one mistake will bring upon SF’s wrath on me :/ my mistakes are never intentional and are never ment to wreck someone else I’m just learning you know?
4. What does Claiming things do? I hear a lot of different things so I thought I’d just ask.
5. I don’t know about you but attacking keeps is one hard job to do! I mean no one defending it isn’t to bad but Jesus once a Zerg comes and defends it you are out of the game! Any advice?
6. So I have had small exposure to “Dual Commanding” where one Commander is on one side and the other ( me ) is in the opposite side is this a smart strategy of pushing for map domination?
7. Rally problems: So I pop my Tag and no other Commander is on and people come to me but I’ve had a problem once or twice where a person who cussed me out for my mistakes would alert the Zerg that I’m a bad Commander and new. People like me but it takes one person to say something and half my Zerg leaves me :| I know I’m in a high Rep WvW Guild but people just need to let me show them what I can do! Any advice?
Thanks guys for reading all this! I just needed some feedback on new Commanding! Zerging and being the Leader are very different roles! I’m sure ill get the hang of it but I have these present problems! My guild is expecting big things from me from this Tournament and I don’t plan on disappointing.
1. Try to come stocked with siege, if you do run out or you are randomly elected to command (will happen alot once you start to command more and get well known).
2. Rams/ Sup rams (both are important, using sup rams on a paper tower gate in whcih noone will defend is overkill). Sup ac’s (normal ac’s are usesless), Sup Cata’s/guild Catas, Trebs/sup trebs and Omega golems also Sup ballistas.
3. that’s a culture problem, i think i’ve had it too good on SoS where i’ve accidently wiped my zerg by fall damage into a zerg and noone was angry. we just had a laugh about it, honestly nothing you can do about it but just remain calm and apololize if you make a mistake if anyone speaks up ask them to command (always gets kitten’s to shut up).
4. When you refer to claiming a camp/keep it means having your +5 buff or guild buffs active most commonly used is +5 supply buff.
5. Attacking a keep is fine if you can beat them open field, test it out lure the enemy out to the open field and if you beat them gg set up trebs or omega’s if not go do something else.
6. Dual commanding is more effective then single commanding, but make sure both commanders are in direct contact with each other usually with Ccoms.
7. Again SF must be a pretty bad server ngl, you don’t see that kind of stuff on SoS people are usually very supportive of newer commanders. You can change this yourself by getting good members to call out people who complain about commanders eventually the culture will skew the other way of positivity.

What if buygate offers 300% of your transfer fee

Oceanic really kicks off at around 3am server time, since 12-1am server time is when peeps are just getting home from work. SEA goes onto around 9-10am server time
It all depends on what part of oceanic you are. NZ prime starts about 11pm, whereas WA isnt till 3 or 4 am
That’s assuming prime starts at 6pm local. That’s usually not the case. At least in BG, we tend to start at around 8pm local. I.E. in AEDT, we’d start forming up at around 2am server time and get going at 3am.
Really depends on guild to guild TS start early but a oceanic guild like ETA start later
Sea of Sorrows http://www.gw2sos.com/index.php
Oceanic Is 1-5 am
Our guys must get on early and off early xD listen to rooster on OCX or Sea as that is his TZ :p
It used to be 12 but your dz hit when ours ends in like 2 weeks oce will be 2-6 am

Hey all, I’m a hardcore wvw player who usually runs ocx/sea time, came from SoR and currently in TC. I’m highly considering transferring to T2 (leaning towards Mag) as I got tired of blobbing and ppt play for T1,queue time are annoying and just not fun anyomore. I’ve been reading this thread and found out that ocx/sea time is the least covered timezone of the server, just a bit hesitant since ocx/sea is my prime play time. I love fights, farming bags and doens’t care about ppt, seems like I can fit in with your server. Is there any guilds currently running nightly raids in Maguuma during ocx/sea, I’m very much interested in transferring but need to consider the timezone first since I don’t wanna play on a ghost BL.
Lol your offpeak coverage is far greater than FA and your SEA is better then SOS
right now Mag has [meow], [sern], [This] and [olaf]. Olaf is more SEA time, and Sern/meow OCX. [This] I’m not sure of. All 3 may be recruiting but I don’t want to speak for them. Outside of them 10-15 sleepless NA that scout, tag along, etc.
Since gaining these 4, I’d say FA is slightly less coverage than us now, with SoS still dominating in terms of numbers.
First nice quoting, also no our our SEA is literally a single guild in [Olaf] that runs his 10-15 + pubs that want to follow. There are early NA’s/EU’s around that spread out but none are sizable guilds.
lel, Meow are a SEA guild aswell.
