Server: Northern Shiverpeaks, Commander
Guild: Legends and Myth [Myth]
SE had fun in EBG yesterday. Good fights SoS and YB.
Was fun holding jerrifers. till you guys stopping coming to get it and started trebbing with 8 trebs. lol
Maybe we should merge and be the Sea of Darkyaks… :o lol
Ah c’mon guys. We all knew we was going to loose this week against SoS. No reason to come to the forums and call people bad and what not. Us on darkhaven are ranked 15 against a rank 8 server. We could just sit back this week and still gain some rating. Prolly not a good example lol.
Lets just work what we got and smash people during NA time zone. it’s only sunday so we still don’t know how much people they will have during the week.
and now for the motivational pic of the day.
Just a preview of us running around…
lol
p.s. may have gotten the numbers a bit wrong but it was something like that.
had some fun in EB. Don’t mind hippo. he was taking shots for just about everything. Was Hammerd night. (guild event)
Sentry: 1 shot
Camp: 2 shots
Tower: 3 shots
Keep: 6 shots
Castle 10 shots
Us wiping: 5 shots
Zerging a lonely pug: 2 shots
ya ^ DH logic
lol
Everyone zergs… not sure why your so upset… lol
So how about xp/karma/money train for all? we won’t defend if you don’t? lol
hows Darkhaven’s oceanic presence?
Nothing compared to SoS and Yaks.
pretty intense in SoS BL right now… we keep getting wiped but its fun. lol
Oh… god… -.- lol
lol come to Vabbi.
hahah
I was on Darkhaven from the start of the game to about 3 weeks ago when i xfered to Vabbi.
What I can tell you about Darkhaven is that the guilds on that server coordinate very well with eachother, between the ninja guild [PD] Perfect Dark who focus on ninjaing objects, [Abys] who is an objective based guild that runs anywhere between 15-30ish members. They also have i think 2 groups of 5 that roam aroud. [SE] who is another objective based guild. They LOVE defending though and will rush to the defense of a keep or tower being assaulted.
I know darkhaven has many other guilds worth noting but i’m in the middle of a movie and don’t really want to write a lot. ;.; lol forgive me.
youre hiding a camp at the bottom, im sorry but i have trust issues xD
lol well if you zoom in on bluelake you will see 2 yaks. one came from the south the other from bluewater.
^.^
If you guys do not mind.. I will just drop this here and back out slowly.
You sir are an affront to my very nature.
:( you no likey me no more?
P.S. just so we all know it’s the T3 garri that may be gone when I get off work in about 8ish hours. ^.^
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! I have accomplished my goal with about 5 friends. it took a couple hours of defending our BL but we achieved it.
<<<<<< Pic Below! >>>>>>>
Supply Commander (Yellow Commander Tag) – Now for the most unknown yet substantially important job! Dolyak walking! The Supply Commanders squad will consist of a small 10 man group for all camps and Dolyaks on the map. These select few would generally despise this job since the reward is, essentially, nonexistent. Or at least it used to be! Now, when a player from the Supply Commanders Squad is near a friendly Dolyak (in the blue circle around it) the Dolyak will move 50% faster, it will be invincible while he is around it (if he dies then the yak becomes vulnerable), the guards become 30% stronger. There is also the reward for walking Dolyaks now with the normal xp/money/karma
Now for a new twist! Supply Commanders and the Squad can run supplies to towers and drop them off (10 at any given time. But you may upgrade this with the Supply Mastery or with a guild buff to carry 15).
Also if the Squad manages to get a designated tower, tagged by the Supreme Commander, then the reward is increased by 50%
Free Roam – And now for the solo roamers. We can’t leave you out cause you make things interesting! Anyone may choose to just solo roam and do whatever they want, BUT, they will not benefit from the extra bonuses designated by the Supreme Commander.
Now I know how that sounds but listen to this! For every player character that you personally stake you are award a 1% increase to the rewards given. So let’s say that you just ran from Hills Keep to Bay Keep to help in the assault on it and on the way you killed 4 random players. You now have a 4% increase to any reward you may receive in this particular map until you log, are killed, or change maps.
There is a 15 person Limit to Free Roam though. If to many people choose this then it will just become another zerg and that is what I’m effectively trying to kill off right here aswell as revamp the Commander system.
I have other ideas about some things in WvW but in my opinion I think Skill lag and the Commander revamp takes priority over anything!
Let me know your thoughts below please. ?

As we all know Commanders need work… as does the constant zerg fest most servers face.. So i have came up with some ideas that may help both. All maps will have a que system now with this new system. Such as Commanders queing for Offense, defense, supply, supreme, whichever. If there are already 4 commanders then try your luck elsewhere if you really want to lead. Now apon entering WvW you MUST choose out of 5 options: Offense, Defense, Supply, or Free Roam. Each has it’s own benifits.
Supreme Commander (Blue Commander Tag) – The overall Commander on the map. This player sacrifices his ability to play on the map and gain bonuses through conquests, defense, etc etc. This Commander gains bonuses for having the Missions he issues out to the various Commanders completed. He sets attack and rally waypoints for the Offense Commander, Defend/Build/Rally Waypoints for the Defense Commander, and then Waypoints for the Supply Commander telling him what place is in dire need of supplies. This commander will also have 5 Racial Skills to use on the map.
1) Bird Scouts – A type of radar system (5 min CD)
2) Legendary Defenders – Calls in 4 (killable) Champion NPCs to fght for the server (20 min CD)
3) Siege Brothers – Calls in Seigecrusher and Seigerazor to assault a heavily defned area of the map. (30 min CD
4) March – Calls on 20 NPC mist warriors to assault a fixed position on the map. (10 min CD)
5) Last Stand – Increases all players stats on the map by 40% for 30 seconds. (60 min CD)
Does not CD if Commander switches with another player.
(This Commander is only playable by the Commanders who have purchased the 100g Commandant Badge)
Offensive Commander (Red Commander Tag) – This Commander is, by default, the Attacker Commander. He leads the “zerg” to attack the Camps, Towers, Keeps, and Castle. His sole purpose to is to break through the enemy lines and capture the point. NOW, if the Supreme Commander has issued an Assault and Capture order of a tower and the tower is taken within 10 minutes then the reward xp/karma/money is enhanced by 60%.
The Offensive Commanders Squad will consist of 30 people TOTAL.
Defensive Commander (Green Commander Tag) – As we all know defending an objective is jokingly rewarded but with this new Commander system hopefully it will become the thing that everyone will want to do. BUT, just like the Offense Commanders Squad this one may only have 30 members in it.
You will have 30 members to defend all of your Towers, Keeps, and/or Castle (camps excluded. Job for supply commander). Now for the rewarding system for defending! For every 15 minutes you are in a Tower, Keep, and/or Castle you gain a reward of the usual xp/karma/money. But if you’re defending against the enemies’ army then that reward is doubled for every 5 minutes you hold it against the enemy.
So be prepared for the Defender Tenacity!!

If you guys do not mind.. I will just drop this here and back out slowly.
But it’s ok.. I avenged him by killing that yak! >:O
That poor guy… lol
Hello everyone. I don’t know if this was addressed before but are the bonuses to say crafting, etc etc you get in wvw for your entire server that is currently not in WvW? Or is it ONLY for if your in one of the borderlands?
Also while i’m on the topic i’d like to make a suggestion to make winning a match actually signify something for your entire server. Like a server wide buff, PvE included.
Say if you place first in a matchup you gain the CURRENT outmanned buff as a 6 day buff (35% increase to xp/karma/money income increase/magic find). Then change the outmanned buff to something similer to what WoW did for Winters Grasp. Increase all your states based off how outmanned your are.
I think if you gained this buff for winning that more people would participate in it. Would give meaning to winning other then to watch your rating go up or down.
I just randomly thought of this so it isn’t really creative cause i’m sure others have thought of it but since devon is on a spree right now i figured i’d throw it out there to see if I would get a response.
please post more ideas on this down there v(^.^)>
Are the orbs coming back? No. Are we bringing back the buff? Yes, although the way you get it and hold it is going to be drastically different. Are you going to see a major map change in concert with this? Yes. Is it coming soon? Most definitely.
Also, the orb mechanic is coming back.
I’m a bit confused :S Orbs itself won’t come back right?
Yes, the Orb itself is not coming back. But the buff is. The same mechanic, just applied differently.
Instead, it would be great if WvW outcomes made a visible difference to open world PvE on the server.
- Win in WvW => see more traders and caravans in PvE.
- Lose in WvW => more trash mobs in PvE.
- Etc.
If they did this, which would be awesome, then TC would never loose… ever. lol
Maybe a living world pack to “Conquer The Mist” Or something to where you have to take control of your borderland.
At this point I think just about anything would make WvW fun.
Not that i’m actually bord of it because I still love playing it, but it is a little disheartening to see the PvE world come to life and change constantly while the “battlefield” remains the same.
^.^
Wait wait wait… So your going to focus us because of a couple of peoples choices to do something dumb?
lol well i guess when you look at it this way. a couple of people is half the server. ^.^
Oh choose me!!! I have awesome hax… I can die so fast you wouldn’t even know i was there! o.o
Well… Here we go again.
Don’t know who this is but that was a fun duel.
good fight!
Nooooooooo …we were discovered.
Only two guys and only for this Week.
Holidays
Nooooo stay with us FOOOREEVVERRR googly eyes
<(^.^)> <(^.^<) (>^.^)> ^(^.^)^ <(^.^)>
Well i’m back tomorrow. Looking forward to doing some stuff in the short time i got.
i’ll be here for the next matchup though!!
Transfer to Vabbi… No lag at all.
lol
(That means you to caliburn! Bring WE with you!)
and then i’ll just leave this here for you..
Ahhh just 1 more day and i’m back. Can’t wait to get to work on the last day! >:O lol
Whiteside Ridge just lost it’s 3 main WvW guilds. and FoW has people comin in i think i’m not sure.
Or how about when you round a cornor and there is a small squad that you KNOW is extremely good sitting there…
lol yes exactly.
pshhh unless your me then it’s more like this. (since as a guard you can’t outrun anything)
I am on FoW and we have had some fun with vabbi and wsr friday after the reset. I mostly see Russian guilds when I am on. But we had some great commanders and large zergs that mobbed the floor with the vabbis and wsr. We just had way more players than you :/
Last week before the reset we had some great fun with Vabbi, and it seemed a lot closer.
I’ll keep an eye out for your tag, not that I can kill you, because I just started. You would own me badly
lol that’s fine.
I don’t know what timezone you play as but being a NA player it is nighttime for the EU servers when I play. So unless my guild grows substantially then you MAY not see much of us.
Looking forward toward your challenge though. ^.^
I have never heard of Vabbi either, so I also can’t comment
lol ;.;
Vabbi is probably the most Underpopulated server out there. BUT now that Whiteside Ridge lost 3 of it’s wvw guilds we are evenly matched with them. Though FoW is rolling us both over. lol
oh dang, i forgot to mention one thing.
I noticed Vabbi does not have a community website so i took it upon myself to make one. I haven’t been able to fully customize it yet since i’m still floating around in the pacific but i have the domain name and will start on it in about 3 days when i get back.
Also if anyone from Vabbi reads this and plays during EU primetime could you help me in passing the word that I will be doing this so we can get everyone to use the website when it is ready. ^.^ Thanks.
As the title states. What do you guys think of the server Vabbi?
I have only been on it for about 3 weeks but haven’t been able to play cause i’ve been out at sea for a while.
I’m a North American player and when I play it’s generaly with a tiny population. But, the population I have played with have all been VERY good players and easy to talk to when commanding.
P.S. Just to throw this out there. I am looking to create a roaming 5 man for my new guild so if anyone wants in on it let me know. ^.^
Good day everyone. I just founded a guild on Vabbi and am looking to establish a PvP base group for the server.
As many of you know Vabbi is probably the most underpopulated server in the entire game and has suffered greatly on the WvW front. I am looking to remedy that by recruiting more players for the server. I have commanded in WvW since a couple weeks after release so i know what i’m doing, it’s just that in the times i play there are only a handful of us online so it becomes difficult to cap anything other than camps.
Now, as for the requirments for the guild you MUST be able to hold your own fairly well in 1v1 situations because the type of guild I am making will uphold an honor code. We do not jump into fair fights, i.e… 1v1, 2v2, 3v3, etc etc.
If we are running a group of 10 and come across 2 players then only 2 designated people will attack them. To go along with this Honor Code none of the people in my guild will flee from an even fight. Even if you cannot win you will stand and fight.
Now I know that this may just be wishful thinking but this is the type of guild I wish to create, and with that I hope we can become a strong core group that can hold our own in fights that we are even outnumbered in.
If you are interested then please send me a message on here. If you are on a different server and would like to join then don’t worry, I will pay for your transfer.
Thank you. ^.^
alright looks like i’ll make one and host it for awhile.
or a better solution: move to a smaller server and stop your kittening?
There will be ques in any game that people are all trying to cram into the same place.
anyone know if vabbi is still without a website???
Apparently a french guild came from Arborstone recently. LZZ i think was the tag.
anyways, just 4 more days till i can play again. ;.;
Your times are the exact same as mine. I don’t know if your only looking at NA servers but I’d like to throw Vabbi out there.
I have been on Vabbi(EU) for about 3 weeks now, though i haven’t been able to play as much as i would like cause of work. I can say that the community on Vabbi is freakin awesome lol. The people are good at what they do since there isn’t many of us we are all used to fighting 3 to 1 odds most of the time.
Now I will tell you that your times will be night time for the server and you will most likely be fighting smaller groups of people and we there will most likely be very little in the way of a Zerg on any of the 3 servers.
If you need more info just check out the other Forum “Vabbi Needs You”.
:) thanks.
Vabbi’s WvW community is extremely small but the players here are all very good at what they do. I’m a North American player and xfered a couple weeks ago but have yet to actually play through a full week with Vabbi due to the fact i’m in the military and work a lot.
The community works well with eachother and i have yet to meet anyone NOT willing to help eachother. If your looking for a place to go keep Vabbi high on your list.
you will be greatly appreciated if you came over. ^.^
Heya, it’s WvW instead of McM
We’re Guild of 5 on Gunnar’s Hold and we’re looking for a server that don"t blob.
Can you tell me more about Vabbi pls?
