I agree of golems being annoying, especially golem rushes during your servers off hours but i still love when an underdog server makes a succesful golem rush just for the heck of it
Looks like you might like a tank/support guard
Pretty sure he was just a little angry at something going on in his current server, seems its solved now.
Hope it’s all good Tyrion
Well then. Lol
I agree Rob, good luck on what you decide.
Finally joined like I was wanting to, funnest group of people I’ve played with and I’ve ran with a good number of WvW guilds, these guys are awesome and very talented
Baegs, came from DR also and are a very talented WvW guild which I’m loving, as I recently joined. But i dont think we will pay for your transfer
I could bore him out with a really good advertisement, but I’m just stating what I like the most. You still have a huge grudge against sbi, which I dont really care about Buffy
Hey Tyrion, nice to see you are still around. I mailed you not too long ago if you still remember me…
Spanish is more comfortable for me so excuse me lol
Me encantaria que tu y tu guild se movieran a SBI, de seguro la pasaras bien y estamos buscando más personas para poder competir con servidores de T3/2. Estaria interesado en unirme si asi deciden
Whatever your choice is Tyrion I hope you find the server that fits you guys the most. Good luck
Your build sounds very we crafted, but I’d like to see it in gameplay.
Like some posters have stated you still cannot bring the party buffs, cc’s, stability that heavy classes can. While I’m sure you can do well on your own, it doesn’t seem to bring much to the group.
Then again, I’d like to see some footage of your gameplay with this build. I’ve played every class for various hours and builds, and Engineers take plenty of time to master and are excellent in experienced hands. Guard/Warrs are the opposite, being very easy to dominate
Nice! Thats even better than the IoJ/BP/CD week
Sorry I coudn’t help but laught at this since I have a lot of friends rage on voice comms because of this, lagged to death, literally
How is YB complaining about this.
I’ve seen mutilple occasions where 2-3 pieces of siege make a whole zerg back off before they even lay down rams/catas/etc.
And there are placements in every tower/keep where the aoe reach from attackers is very low, taking a lot of casting to get the arrow carts down, and by that time you should of killed the squishy range classes

There’s really only a handful of people that want to play defense to make sure we have waypoints. Everyone else wants to ignore that to follow the blob. You can only play that way so many times before you become a blobber yourself.
It’s not fun hanging back and refreshing siege that you yourself ran to and from north camp 500 times to build from your own blueprints, while everyone else leaves the map outmanned to go actually kill people.
On Mag we have never not been out-manned during 16 hours of game time. Right now SBI has more players in Oceanic AND NA prime time. WTH? In the middle of the week they have queued maps.
The only way to fix this is to limit the amount allowed players on a map based on how many the other team has. This is what WoW did to an extent, but they buffed the lower populated faction exponentially for each % of out-manned. So instead of 60 vs 10, you have 20 vs 10 until 10 has 20, then the cap increases to 40, then 60, then whatever the actual queue is. Abandoning a map can’t really force people off a map with this method, but that team will get bored there and start trying to queue toward somewhere else. This gives at least some chance for the losing/lower-pop team to keep an interest. This hurts people who transfer-to-win only.
Mag came very fight centric as expected IMO. We are definitely out covering you, emphasis on SEA time, but dont exagerate.
Mag’s EU triples my militia in size and are more coordinated ( Props to [NOVA], there is sti some folks around to fight during late SEA and your NA is solid and stronger than SBI’s most week days.
We have not queued anything from Ocx/SEA/EU, Ebg gets queued on NA but thats about it and mag easily counters the pugs there
The fact that you left your home server in hopes to get better rewards is the attitude hardcore WvWers dislike.
When you bring your zerk Pve build into WvW and complain to the cmder of your death
When you stop for a sentry when you could of run and hold a keep/tower from flipping, chase off a squirrel before a fight, put down another field down when commander asks for water/static/specific, when you start hitting a gate even when people told u not to tap it or layed down unwanted siege
Wvw is a PvP game mode and its suppose to be a competitive enviroment. Not for rewards.
Most commanders and wvw veterans fight for their server pride and friends, “PvE” players only care about themselves. That is why its difficult for us WvWers to like PvErs
Im on the same boat as belle and the above poster. Its been way too long having the same servers up there while others are empty or severely lack coverage.
Im not saying its T1’s fault but variety sure is more fun and it’d be nice to close the gap between the top 6-8 servers
Hey Josh, any news on up coming updates to WvW? Whe will acct bound wxp be?
While I do not like YB at all and this thread is pretty amusing I think it should have been made on a private website, YB’s forum or something
Koldo hurry up and recruit me.
Silence and bow down to the most OP thing in game
It one shots you
It even ignores the rally mechanic
Yes ladies and gentlemen… it is
gravity
[ETA] from SoS was pretty coordinated
[BAEGS] from SBI is very disciplined yet fun
[VR]+ some other tag i forgot from Maguuma are pretty skilled and dont count on melee
[Ark] also very skillful along with [EP]
[CNB] from SoS can sure take a punch
Thats my top from what I’ve encountered
Dont underestimate ele’s. I’m a guardian commander, and i love having as much backline as possible. Well coordinated range bombs can destroy a cheese melee train with ease
I feel bad for your case, but as an experience pug commander I can tell you voice comms makes a world of difference.
I’ve commanded in team chat just like you back in IoJ days and won most fights. Like you, i developed to type fast while fighting and I thought it was effective.
I moved to higher tiers and its completely useless due to the skill level and so I had to become a better commander, and support of the use of ts by everybody.
You’ll definitely like it here, our NA is very solid and very fight centric
“INC X server’s zerg!”
Commander: How many?
“5-7.”
There isn’t a more fun group of players to run with than [Baegs]. Talented drivers and players. Honeestly wish I played NA hours more
If you are an NA player i dont suggest going for Tier 1 servers. You might want to look into Tier 3 and 2.
I’m an experience militia commander in my server, SBI, and I take pride in improving the quality of play of the militia in my server. Fair warning, higher tier servers are a whole different game, so you better have a good understanding on how to survive and what class contributes the most/whats needed at the time. I do not want zerk geared guys who do not stay on tag or have an average reaction time.
Good luck finding the server that fits you the most
It has not been confirmed when S2 will happen, or if it will happen at all?
Large scale organised combat
This guy is awesome. Keep bumping this forever
Some of the best fights I’ve been in were in smc, especially when all three servers are inside. Having it waypointed makes it easier to get to the enemy sides, as well as hide the zerg if you own it.
A waypointed SMC just shouts out “HEY GUYS, 2V1 ME”. No server can survive a sustained 2v1, in a single map. We actively avoid upgrading SMC here in Blackgate for that reason alone.
Except in lower tiers a WP SMC is exactly what he said, a strong strategic point that is held for quite some time. A stronger server holding a WP SMC is nigh impossible to take because they WILL call for reinforcements from the home BL to protect it if everything else is safe. It is entirely possible for a server like IoJ to WP and hold SMC for days at a time versus servers like FC and GoM.
Just because it doesn’t work on BG doesn’t mean it will not work in lower tiers.
Alright then, honest question here. Because you can treb SMC from Wildcreek, Durious, Anzalias and Hills Keep, how do you even use the waypoint?
Also, if the other servers are so focused on EBG, why not just give it up and have all your forces cap the two southern keeps/towers/camps on the 3 BLs to maximise PPT?
If you want some fights, taking their garrison will almost guarantee one.
If you don’t play for PPT, then why even bother upgrading SMC?
I fully understand the lack of people in the borderlands and focusing into one or two groups. That’s how BG operates during Oceanic – we get outnumbered buff in EBG (usually with no commander tag either) and have a team of 30-40 defend our BL and cap other BLs. We use EBG basically as a supply depot cause it gets supply so quickly. Even then, we mostly ignore it unless the enemy server is pounding on our keep, because it simply isn’t that important. No point taking a tower or two when it gets upgraded to T3 in an hour or two. The margin for error in EBG is just way too high. You’re not really punished for making mistakes as a commander there.
This thread is silly and its extremely amusing seeing how a higher tier player argue with a player experienced in lower ones.
Its simple. In lower tiers, the only fun place is EBG. Sure you can go cap your enemies garri, you will either face one guy on a cannon and some doors or a bunch of arrow carts.
People think the only difference between tiers is coverage, while its the main thing, there is a world of difference. Lower tiers have a lot more casuals, way less experience commanders in open field and militia’s average skill in large scale fights is lower
I’ve seen your videos Ogre, cant wait to see some footage
Big changes bound to come to the guild, contemplating the idea of moving raids to NA Prime, Fights focused.
Free bump for you guys :P
Can I get a link to RG’s youtube vids?
SBI is a good choice, a lot of militia use VOIP but I do not recommend commanding in EB from past experiences. We’ve been through tough weeks and seevers and we’re addapting to improve and it’s giving results.
BL focused and players with an optimistic attitude is what we are looking for as we grow stronger, theres also multiple NA guilds you could potentionally join
Still looking for more EU time zone players. We take pride in our server and fight to improve the guild and server
There is still lots of room to grow! We are looking for more BL-focused players all around time zones willing to work with one another and keep SBI’s momentum going, even on tough match ups
Very impressive and growing guild
Buuuump for one of my favorite SBI guilds
YB, where did that HUGE blob go? Omg. That fight infront of OW you wiped us, then we wiped you at SM and you guys poofed :c
Olaf can be mean to unexperience guys and ppl who goof around but he’s still a great commander, lots of experience in open field and wvw in general
Lol whatever makes you guys feel better
I was talking about EU time, it was an [EP] commander driving the huge zerg. It was fun though, but some fairweathers were raging at me because I didnt want to turtle up in a tower. :P
Oh and tha SEA time zerg is most likely our lovely commander Olaf lol
Please no YB please… lol
Thanks for the fights on EBG SoS, your group is definitely more organized and I hope the few wipes we got opened our militia’s eyes that we need to improve.
We would of given you a better challenge if you werent rolling 60 man deep though… it was fun regardless
T4-5 servers dont have a queue with the exception of maybe NA prime in a single map ( maybe DB on SEA time).
T2-T3 servers have more coverage and more fights around at any time zones, most maps will be queueless, the only exception might be TC which Its unknown for me, but seeing how they have dominated T2 ppl consider it a “T1.5” server.
If you want a drastic change from DR and you are not an NA player you might want to try T1.
Ummmm………….?
Just give WXP to the person who pays for the upgrade. Because tbh it gets annoying for those commanders, myself included that upgrade a borderland, siege it up, and everything gets lpst next morning pr as soon as you log off
