Guild Wars 2

Reign of Cadimus

INTRODUCTION: Reign of Cadimus[RoC] is a WvW (World versus World) guild stationed in IoJ. We currently have 20+ members and are looking to increase our numbers for daily WvW, Dungeons, Edge of the Mist, and Guild Missions. This guild was created in order to bring in players not only new to WvW, but experienced players as well and building up our overall knowledge of how to WvW as a whole.This guild does use Teamspeak however I will get into that in the RULES section.

GOALS:

Increase the servers knowledge of WvW and put emphasis on communication and teamwork.

To create a guild that always has some presence or influence in WvW which means having around 20-30 ACTIVE players on at any given time.

To adjust and overcome any combat situation from busting enemy zergs to defending towers and keeps.

MOST IMPORTANT GOAL—> To have fun

RULES: dun dun duuuuuuuuuuun (They’re not bad trust me)

You must be ACTIVE. I’m very lenient on this as long as you let me know what’s up! guild adjustments will be made if we’re holding over 100 players and only have 20-30 active.

Eventually you will have to use Teamspeak (It’s the ultimate way of communication in WvW and pretty much everything) I will give the player 2 weeks to get it and you have to let me know if you’ve used or have it. WHILE GROUPED UP YOU ARE REQUIRED TO USE IT!

You are also required to rep [RoC] only when grouped up in WvW, this is a tactic to show not only our server but the enemy as well that we’re and organized group ready to kick all sorts of kitten

RANKINGS:

BAD DOLYAK: These are players who haven’t been living up to the guilds standards (Starting drama in guild, not active, not playing as a team, etc.) and will be Gkicked should they not change their wicked ways

Soldier: New players of the guild and the heroes of Tommorow! (RANK UP REQUIREMENT: must use Teamspeak)

Elite Soldier: Knowing the importance of communication and teamwork you are a proud and noble guild member of [RoC].

Commander: You have a Tag and you’re ready to take on the burden of defending IoJ…but can you be more?(RANK UP REQUIREMENT: Must be an active commander, Must be able to lead in Teamspeak)

Elite Commander: A warlord on the battlefield, with an army at your back you are an unstoppable force, a force to be reckoned with.

Strategists: “pfft! Tags are overrated, I lead in the backlines” If you’re taking initiative in WvW( Making sure our towers and keeps are sieged up and secure using chat and TS) then you are worthy enough to be called a Strategist!

Second in Command: You are the one I trust most! in charge of guild activities should I succumb to sickness or tons of College work. This is the highest honor within the guild.

Leader: Cadimus Alteria

That was one hell of a battle at SM, feels good to be back commanding in IoJ. Sorry CD but this up-leveled commander isn’t going to let you have the castle so easily, nice try tho. good fights all around let’s keep this up people, and merry christmas!

It is nice to see people from TEST return home and I hope to see more of you in WvW.
Is lambda still hustling for TEST militia? He has been going hard in borderlands and I have learned a thing or 2 from him.

err… I’m not exactly TEST xD I’m one of the CORE commanders who came back to IoJ. TEST took me in pretty much and I enjoy the company. I plan on leading the guild raids with TEST in WvW once we get some more people into the guild so watch out for some epic zerg busting in the near future >:D

Could we get an official ruling on the gender of that character in the 2nd pic?

Male, I just like being pretty

Epic fights in SMC earlier today, also got to chat with some of my old friends from IoJ . loved charging into the thick of you guys and just unloading tons of damage to your backline >:} also had to bust out mah good book when things got a bit rough (though once I got into IoJ BL and did that to [mend] they weren’t having any of that…. scary~!)

anyways good fights today, I’m satisfied and can’t wait for tomorrow to see what she brings =).

Good fights in IoJ BL tonight. Despite [CORE] and a bunch of other guilds leaving IoJ, she’s still standing strong (well at least for reset, will have to wait and see what happens from here onward). Very proud of those who stayed to fight in IoJ despite the transfers and I hope she gets back on her feet like the good ol days.

But enough of the friendly compliments, from here forth I’m going to destroy each and every one of you until there is nothing left but bags covered in hot sticky peanut butter >:D

Is this not the most epic pic in Guild Wars 2! so happy with this match up

Give it your all guys, I’ll be rooting from afar d(^_^ )

Good fights tonight SBI, I’m gonna have to get stronger for the battles ahead. This week starting to get interesting

I have to ask this because after defending bay for three hours I have to know… SBI…We’re you guys just “Trying” to troll or were you really “Trying” to take our Bay? Because I’ve taken keeps with way less effort and manpower… that was either a poor display of intelligence or a high display of idiocy.

Whelp… take your time with that question, anyways… good job [SE], was a tough, obviously dull and pointless battle to defend our Bay but was actually fun to fight alongside you guys. Oh and gonna have to repay [OS] for the love they’ve been giving us in IoJ at hills. I’ll be sure to bring chocolate hearts and flowers next time I rage on your BL <3

Nah, It’s never about taking keeps. We’re already beating you by 40k points, we’re certainly not playing for PPT. It’s for the bags and the fights. When we take your keep you guys get all demoralized and don’t seem to play for another 24 hours. It’s much more fun when you get to keep your structure so you entertain fights (albeit with the standard amount of IoJ siege to compensate for ineptitude).

Although perhaps it would not have mattered since only SE was really interested in doing any fighting. Nonetheless, we had a blast wiping you a number of times during our uplevel training night. Keep it classy IoJ, although I hardly expect it from anyone other than SE and occasionally CORE from your server.

yep so… those Sup Trebs and extra siege overlooking the entrance of vale was just for show? mmmmmK guess up-leveled pugs gotta level up somehow. consider the matter overlooked my friend

Hey ioj, I noticed your ppt was a little low most of tonight. Maybe if you defended your borderland against our double team your keeps wouldn’t be paper.

It has nothing to do with sbi targeting you tonight being a transfer server..

:) It’s just you guys not cutting it.

+1, IoJ just wasn’t really managing their numbers correctly. They totally blew it. They should learn how to WvW.

Yep we need more WvW training nights but you guys also need to learn how to coordinate your guilds in order to take a keep. so we both have something we need to work on… good luck to the both of us d(^_^ )

Defended 70% of our BL so it wasn’t that bad and afterwards we golem rushed your bay and gave you guys a well deserved beating at garrison now that I think about it, SBI was on your map as well… it’s funny how quick the roles can be reversed xD

Good fights last night, It’s always fun when I lead the [CORE] zerg xD. Props to SF for trying to fight us off at your spawn in EB… you guys charged my zerg and died like 5 times but I can tell you guys have alot of fighting spirit, which I respect

Always remember that there are three ways to leave your spawn, If you hit us from behind you probably could’ve killed us.

I’m sad about mah zerg getting wiped twice last night… I’ve got a ways to go keep up the good work everyone

Azaruil.3406:

Had some fun fights tonight on HoD BL against [Core] and [PPK]. We had 12-15 earlier in the night, but dropped down to 8-9 when you guys took Briar back with the break-out. (Siegerazor is OP) Unfortunately the BL flooded with more of your guys and then more of our guys. Hopefully we’ll get to fight some more against each other this week.

Heh, One hell of a fight you guys gave us on reset. Though… I don’t think I fought 12-15… felt more like 20-25 lol. I’m done taking a 2-week vacation from commanding so you guys better watch out

was some pretty intense fighting in EB this morning between IoJ and GoM… gave me alot of trouble defending my corner while attacking yours. The fights at Danelon mine and Langor were especially epic!

It was also fun to make all the maps green/blue this afternoon though, ah…let the good times role on~ gonna miss you guys, best of luck in your coming wars!

Next time you cheat, at least take the tower LOL

To DR as a whole:

Siege (including ACs and Ballis) is a mechanic of WvW. If you don’t like it, go to sPvP. My goal isn’t to have a glorious charge with nothing but an even or outnumbered zerg against my enemies. My goal is to win / make others lose. So, why would I stop using siege on you all when it kills you & caps your assets more efficiently than banging my face against you? Isn’t that also something you complain about (PvDooring)? Don’t act like you all don’t take advantage of WvW mechanics in an effort of “fairness”.

I totally get what you are saying about the use of siege. If you have got it, use it.

The issue I have is that with your numbers, and I mean the CORE/HARD group, you should and could be better than you are at certain aspects of WvW.

You won’t see VP complain about being outnumbered, thats the way we like it. We only run between 8-12 guys on a regular night and like to fight the big zergs as much as we can.

Frequently, we get stomped, as is the tricky nature of poking the big beast with a sharp stick, but occassionally we manage to pull it off and wipe the big groups, and that’s what it is all about for us, that and open field fights.

The other night we were in the IoJ SE tower doing our usual open tower defence stuff. I think you guys wiped 2-3 times trying to get in. Then the siege comes out.

Arrow carts everywhere around the outside, ballistas, and extra treb hitting us inside the tower. All fair enough and fully expected. Most of which we were able to get rid of and get back into the tower.

What we have NEVER seen before, and I mean none of us in VP, was the 2 Omega golems you built in hills and came at us with next. 2 Omegas to take a tower with 10 VP in it and no walls!

Hey…. it worked

I did not think there was a limit to what is “fair” as far as siege goes, but I think that may have been getting close to it. And I really never thought I would say that.

Anyway, we are having some good fights this week and I am enjoying going up against IoJ and GoM.

/salute

Yeah I built those omegas, whenever someone asks me to tag up AS SOON AS I GET ON or if one of our towers are taken I usually start off raging stuff with golems lol. My bad if that made you guys mad, tho that was funny when I was taking the omega up the stairs and started to sing some star wars music, everyone on TS was laughing their butts off… ah that was a good time we had xD. Good fighting this week all around keep it up everyone.

Deltaray.2763:

Don’t blame spies because you cant cap towers or keeps anymore. If you’re really a good commander, this won’t stop you from doing your job well.

In fact, having spies just means we’re more of a threat to the other servers and should even consider having them a challenge to commanders.

Don’t wanna go off-topic but yeah I have to agree with you a bit there, at least when it comes down to EB, I locked down that corner like Alcatraz prison lol. The thing is spies are not something that were implemented as part of this game, or 3rd party communications…but it exists and people use them.

but back to topic… spies or not, if I block someone there should be NO type of communication between me and that person unless… it’s from a 3rd party (another player) . so in all I think a new adjustment to player blocking is in order and Aggie’s suggestions are reasonable. BLOCKING a player is what the function is for, to cut off all communications with that player, for Aggie, it’s not working, he’s still being harassed in squad chat. suggestions on how the block system should be changed is what we need to explore, and he’s got some solid points there.

Deltaray.2763:

Yes, it is unreasonable. Thats because what you’re saying is also flawed.

You may hate the person you just blocked for personal reasons other than spying, but it doesn’t mean he can’t help around in WvW. Just imagine if he got blocked by all commanders, who is he gonna follow? Just because you blocked someone that trolled you in LA, does not mean he can’t help out in WvW.

Commander tags are made so that people have someone to follow and help out in WvW and PvE. Depriving them of that because you have personal grudges with them is unreasonable,

He can follow the zerg, or fortify a keep, ask someone for help in order to have that commander unblock him. Spies effect the server as a whole… would you rather have one guy be miserable or the entire server =/. and what commander would want to block the entire server in WvW let’s be honest, a commander needs people to command after all lol. This guy is spamming insults to every person in this server so he obviously asking for it xD. Many honestly believe this system is something that can’t be abused and might lead to some actual honest and decent WvW. nothing flawed about Aggie’s suggestion

back to the topic -Like in every other MMO if you want to be unblocked, ask someone for a hand, tell that person “Hey can you message this person that i would like to talk with them” or in this case “the commander blocked me so I can’t see what he’s saying, or his tag, can you help me out?” This change is not that big of a deal when it comes to that individual and yourself however it is a problem if that individual is effecting those around you as well as yourself. Pretty sure this block mechanic won’t have a negative effect on people since it’s… well…. the BLOCK function.

Mind as well put in my 2 cents in

I always speak from my heart so here’s how I feel, yeah It’s very disturbing and upsetting to do well leading my server to glory as a commander until the moment that “one guy” comes on and all chaos breaks loose…I shall give thee a story.

“The enemies whom we’ve conquered time and time again seems to fight quite ferociously when “that one random guy” pops up . The enemy magically gain the foresight of a god predicting our movements, what siege we have, which towers/keeps have supply and which ones don’t, etc. The enemy decides to go on the offensive at that moment ravaging our home borderland, taking our keeps, knowing what move we will make next, oh the HORROR! Rumors of spies start to float around and mistrust begins to grow, alliances are broken, friendships are torn apart, the unity which our server might or might have had is ruined because of “that one random annoying guy who I think, maybe we all think is a spy or sumpten!” dun dun duuuun -Dramatization finished

But yeah, on a serious note I agree with Aggie, if all three of his suggestions could be implemented into the block system it would put the minds of every WvW player at EASE. Will this change destroy GuildWars2? I don’t see how =/. Will things change in game? Maybe the enemy uses scouts beforehand, maybe they have more war experience than our server… maybe it’s all crazy coincidence!!! BUT at least I will be able to sleep at night knowing that both my server and my enemies in this three-way war fought an honest fight… and also that creepy guy I blocked didn’t do anything to sabotage it.

WvW is a place of competition, a place of pride and glory, and I feel that cross-server spies dishonor this ideal…If I feel if someone is a spy or if I just find them to be a stalker or just… creepy I should have the right to block them..fully =)
