How many dbers are still playing that remember when we last played SoS the week after half our server transferred over? How many of those guilds are still playing on SoS I wonder? Are there enough left that this will affect the match this week? Should be interesting.
Great fight for SMC tonight, i think all 3 servers were fighting in the lords room for an hour or so. I think I helped rez the castle lord like 3 times. Everytime I would enter inner SM it looked empty, then poof a massive blob of red. I can’t believe how bad the map lagged, even when I was just running from overlook to SM. I hope we get a close match the whole week, haven’t had one of those since we fought Mag and YB a few weeks ago.
yaks i have some info for you stop trebbing SM its starting to get under a skin and you really don’t want to see DB kitten will take your BL and never give it back then kitten block you guys for points we would like to see you come 2nd but if u insist to harass us then its going to get ugly as well where do you guys even get that many treb? is anet giving you guys an unlimited supply? we have destroyed and I’m still counting 100+ of your guys trebs that been destroyed
I do agree you guys built a load of trebs. I noticed everytime you guys would take sm there would be 2 or more trebs facing WC or Klov before you even upgraded your walls. I think that is a half the reason we are so focused on taking OL these last couple days. But hey I applaud your use of siege, makes things a lot more interesting.
On another note its looking like there is a good possibility we will be in Tier 3 next week. DB be ready to get it handed to us. We should find out which of the new guilds are actually committed to the server after next week. I personally look forward to a challenging battle, even if we get beat down. I think it will definitely be closer than the last time we faced CD. I think we got beat by about 180k though a lot has changed in 3 months, we’ll see if we can do better this time around.
EB took over second place today and has now built a substantial lead on YB. I must say that is unexpected. Will EB suffer from a double team the next 2 and half days due to new position. It should be interesting.
It’s crazy how close the battle for second is right now. Assuming DB keeps winning overnight who will finish second is totally up in the air. And unlike last time it looks like we have a good shot at the same matchup next week if the scores continue as they are.
This comment thread so far has been pretty good, no exploit talk and unlike the last thread no bad blood for guilds transferring. Keep up the good fights everyone. Eternal Battlegrounds has been a pretty crazy place, it seems like control of SM is going to switch quite a lot this week. How much gold will be sunk into that place by all the teams lol.
Moderators must be off for the holiday, otherwise I would have expected this thread to be locked a long time ago.
When I log-in later today all of the upgrades that I spent 5~10 gold for will be gone.. assuming that you guys continue to put up a decent fight as you did in weeks passed.
We didn’t lose any upgrades today, just for the record.
Yeah then SM flipped like 3 time in like 45 minutes. We took it from DH, then BP basically ninja’d it like 15 minutes later as no one was paying attention. Then 15 minutes later it was a 3 way battle and we came so close to capping it back from BP (had the bar 90% filled before wiping, then a few minutes later DH capped it again. Maybe another 30 minutes later DB capped it again. It is like musical chairs.
I want to thank the Maguuma and Yak’s Bend players for a fun week of WvWvW. Though I wasn’t on as much during the second part of the week, the first half was some of the most epic battling I have ever witnessed. Hats off to the Dragonbrand crew, you guys did a good job. As of 1:45 PST Overlook keep has still yet to fall, even though we get outmanned buff every day in EB.
Actually only Dragonbrand can win and still drop down. A win by around 8k or less would do it. Yeah the ranking system is broken, and should be adjusted.
That was a lot of fun defending overlook keep tonight. Had Mag taking pang and Ogrewatch every 5 minutes while YB kept control of Speld and our west towers and the countless trebs at SM hitting that wall. Good job DB holding onto the keep. The rest of the week should be a blast. Still a really close match, though even if DB were to win we probably still drop down a tier, what a messed up scoring system.
Just over 2k separate 1st and 3rd place, here’s to hoping the score stays this close all week.
Today was a fun day in EB. Hats off to BP repelling us from your keep several times. We eventually decide to treb from Langor which finally got the job done. Good job DB keeping it close during NA primetime.
Just a reminder that at some point your team will be 2v1. DH trebbing your keep was of no assistance in helping us take it. In fact that prevented us from placing siege on the walls, plus we ended up sandwiched between both groups. That’s why we had to hit it from the other side. Also it made perfect sense for DH to go after Durios and Bravost as we flipped them earlier and they had no upgrades. There was zero chance of DH getting WC or Klovan with full upgrades and tons of siege on them.
The west one you can go under the bridge and repair there, but he East gate you cant walk under that sections since it doesn’t have enough room.
How many times will a fully upgraded (or nearly) SM be flipped this week. It would be interesting if they had statistics showing how much gold teams were spending on the various objectives.
1 person bragged about being que’d, doesnt mean we all did, also que’s on all 4 maps lasts for 2 hours after reset, thats common for all servers id assume, we have probably similar population in wvw as dh and db after the first night, when u see a 50 person zerg, its cause we have the organization enough to put 50 ppl together instead of a 20 person zerg and 30 ppl running solo or in groups of 2.
on any given day we push 150 ppl in wvw during regular hours (more in primetime) we just have the mobility and communication to cover 4 maps with 150 ppl and we move numbers where they are needed.
AR and SF and other servers we have passed in the past month keep complaining about transfers, sure we’ve had some transfers, but they are all single person transfers, we havnt had a guild transfer in over a month and a half. 90% of the ppl that play wvw in BP have been with BP for at least 2 months, as some of u have noticed the organization and guild cooperation in BP, that is truly what has given us the surge in domination in the last month from moving to bottom tier to here.
Overall though guys im loving the challenge finally this will be a close week.
No queues for DB this week yet, in fact I have only seen 2 times where any of our maps was queued in the past 4 weeks, once last week when NSP brought 10 golems to our BL and thrashed it and another time last week around 11 pm server time EB was queued. If you guys are getting queued maps this is going to be a tough week for both DB and DH.
Is there any way to repair this?
Good to see the positive comments on this thread guys. These past few weeks have been really enjoyable. Having a fully upgraded SM gives such a huge advantage in EB, we have basically owned Anz, QL and Durios since its pretty hard to hold them when the walls go down 5 min after you guys take them back. The huge golem army that NSP brought to our BL was quite impressive, nice work guys. We’ll see how many DB people show up for WvW next week with the event, last time there was an event no one came to WvW. Also based on BP score against SF and GoM, they look to be pretty dangerous.
That was a fun fight tonight in EB betwen DH and DB. DH held Golanta for over an hour and nearly had Klovan walls down a few tmes. Both sides were putting up so much siege during that fight. Good work Dragonbrand, everyone contributed to building siege at both Jerrifer and Klovan to counter their siege, we had people run supply from the keep to the walls at Klovan, had NSP come in and take out our only supply to the keep as well as harrassing DH at durios and bravost. Also that golem assault on SM from NSP was intense. I seriously didnt think our reinforcements were going to make it to the lords room in time. We almost lost SM with full upgrades and nearly 2800 supply. I am going to miss battling both NSP and DH. Kind of sucks that we couldn’t place any siege later in the night, dpsing reinforced gates is not much fun. Anet please fix this.
I am on Dragonbrand. NSP and Darkhaven are not working together. Of course to everyone in WvW it probably feels like you are being teamed up against. It is too bad all 3 servers don’t share the same primetime periods.
You get points for killing dolyaks and sentries and maybe other things which makes up the difference
I submitted a Bug report on this a few weeks ago. No action as of yet.
Any damage to a tower or keep will bring up white swords on the keep icon.. Only if there are enough people doing damage do you get orange swords. You cannot ninja a keep/tower with no indicators on the map showing up. This is why anytime you see a keep under attack orange swords or not, it should be checked out.
There should be some sort of achievements system specifically for WvW. Like a ranking based on how many towers/keeps/castles you take or defend. It would be like experience levels but you could give players something like military ranks. What you all think?
