I don’t think that “ganking” is addressed by this solution, though.

If these groups are so good I’m not sure why “ganking” is a problem in the first place

OP plays bottom of Bronze League.

“ganking” doesn’t mean they’d win, but interference esp in small scale duels and even the larger gvgs is annoying and ganking doesn’t have to be one player… I’ve seen whole zergs troll it and even if wiped it still detracts from the fight

eh I’d understand if you were losing copious amounts of gold but 3~ isn’t a big deal by any standards and if it honestly is an issue I can easily send you that via in game mail

and anet can have a more interesting esports area to focus on

don’t really get your argument / gripe

a) 250 gems which is 26 gold as of right now
b. 6 gold bloodlust or 10 silver for sigil of stamina…

you can put two sigils in a two handed weapon now … if its about aesthetics you should just transmute the other staff with the crappy version (but same skin) from the trading post … I think it costs 50s?

Cross server obsidian sanctum areas so that players who are not in the match ups can gvg against one another. Hell, you could make it like Spvp where players can buy tokens and starter kits then password protect the areas so only the two guilds involved can get in (as long as all armor / stats / traits etc etc mirror wvw)… it doesn’t have to be perfect… I’d settle for the red/blue/green in eotm because even that would open up a lot of possibilities

- no ganking
- no interference
- gvg on demand
- gvg with players / guilds from other servers
- private areas for gvgs
- possibly different maps?
- not stacking certain servers just to get fights

- success

Lots asked for the transfers as well… you can’t make everyone happy.

Some win and some lose. It was going to be stale anyway but at least now a few servers get to rise up and we get to watch them either break or succeed which is fun too.

dancingmonkey.4902:

I am sorry if it upsets you that posters mention that you hinder the rest of the populations experience with your lack of aid in WvW.

Avenge, I am sorry to see that you feel you must attempt back handed insults when someone doesn’t agree with you.

I was under the impression the set an area, all be it temporary, for GvG action. Until then it seems you guys prefer to attack anyone who dislikes that your promoting of degrading the entire servers experience in WvW.

Stop trolling monkey. You get on another guild’s recruitment thread and complain that their parameters for recruitment aren’t what you want them to be. It’s a game and people enjoy different playstyles. If you can’t deal with it then ignore the post but don’t try to detract from it. You’re basically screaming for attention and come off as pretty pathetic.

Solovic and Vale are excellent players to game with. I would strongly recommend this guild to anyone.

Look forward to fighting GoM

oh so you’re preparing for open field?

Nuzt.7894:

There is plenty of guilds recruiting, I believe Vale is recruiting, and is a larger guild. TBT also recruits if your open to criticism and willing to build appropriately. Thats just 3 off the top of my head, I’m sure all would take Mesmers !

Biggest lag has been on the Eternal Battlegrounds, especially when there is a huge fight in the Stonemist castle or on own BL, when there is a 3-way fight in Garrison (keep).Biggest lag has been on the Eternal Battlegrounds, especially when there is a huge fight in the Stonemist castle or on own BL, when there is a 3-way fight in Garrison (keep).

This. today 11 est skills were freezing against a Devonas Rest zerg (50+). I’m assuming everyone had very bad lag since enemies and allies were rubberbanding all over the place and map chat was filled with people complaining

after the fight most of the devonas rest players vanished but we still had residual lag around any SM fights

also whispers were delayed for 5-10 mins

only started /w people after leaving wvw

(plays on anvil rock)

this last patch has made lag much more frequent at least for me

Adahilia.3678:

Bump for AR! Free transfer ends 3/27 come join us. We are on the rise and ready to rock out the season!

<3 me some vex

Thanks to everyone that transferred to AR. I hope everyone is having a great time thus far and is/has integrated into the community. For all that didn’t pick AR, maybe next time … and if you picked other bronze servers I look forward to fighting you

Still a day to go on the transfers but thought I’d throw that out there :P

fighting FC is always fun gl with recruitment

A lot of that is correct but I also know about a few embellishments on your server forums as well so I know how you guys are (don’t get me wrong it’s a great morale tool)

It’s nothing against you and I’m not arguing because you did get people but to the gamechanging degree you claim … that remains to be seen

either way, it’s not like it matters more targets don’t make any difference to us

Wish you guys all the best

It’s not as much DR’s nightcrew even. AR’s OCx still can tick higher than theirs. It’s the daycrew. We both (AR and FC) have a large gap during noon to 6-7 pm est (don’t know what tz that is) which DR can exploit to get a large lead. Go look at mos, it’s no secret last week we almost beat DR but the last few days their daycrew pvdoored their way to victory … it’s the same thing this week. Overall the numbers don’t seem different it’s just a bunch of propaganda about them getting massive xfers because I honestly don’t see that much of a difference between this week and last week in terms of OCX and NA prime (unless the new transfers aren’t in wvw).

Maybe it’s just me or they avoid us idk I could be wrong but that’s my observation

Their day gap has gotten bigger … there’s a joke in our guild that DR players are going to lose their jobs because they stay home from work to ppt.

NSP gave me zap

ZoS/OS blob I owe you!

jeknar I’ve gamed with you before. Bring your sexy kitten to AR stop “going down with the ship” bro it’s a lot better out here

it’s like when ET was doing well just w/o the egos or drama

Jeknar.6184:

Easterbunny.6170:

Im once again guessing you both play in EB only. We can only que EB. The other maps are held by small teams and fight 60 vs 20 on a very regular basis.

ET fielding 60 man? Against a server bigger than ours (so no fairwheater presence)?

Yeah right…

Edit: Screenshot from GoM/ET/EBay (Yeah, I know its EB, its just for flavor)

Few questions (and very important)

When was this taken?
How many swords did you pop on other maps / points did you have?

It seems like you’re hovering above 150 which leads me to believe you at least held most of your bl

A picture without context doesn’t mean much … as we all know numbers can fluctuate wildly. None of us are strangers to that.

Anyway, GoM, always a pleasure!

I’m so convinced that AR can do great things that if your guild comes here and legitimately tries/ plays a lot of WvW and doesn’t love it then I’ll farm with you to move you back to whichever server you’re from.

Just contact me via forum mail

skullmount.1758:

Transfer costs should have been determined on a per current persons server basis. If you’re moving down the cheaper it would have gotten (to the point of free for maybe the bottom 4 servers?), and if you were moving up the more expensive it would have gotten (max 2400 like they did, for T1 servers). This would have given better reason to move down instead of people moving up.

Hadan.2841:

Indeed Krew is back in the bronze tier. Good ole days of BP sitting in t8/t7. Having been on FC for the last 2 weeks has been great. We have been able to push ourselves to the limits finding fights at every corner of the map we went. I was actually very surprised how active the lower tier servers are in WvW. Some of the guild grps we have seen have had some very large numbers [Os] of NSp and [TBT] of AR to name a few. Its been alot of fun though fighting all the guild grps. Shoutout to [ZERO] on AR and [BRL] on DR for the fun fights this week!! having [vT] come with us has been just tht much better. It would have sucked leaving our lil brother on BP!!!

We actually only run 20-25 a night idk if that’s big by most peoples’ standards

Mostly popped smoke this match up because we’re out getting our kitten kicked by experienced gvg guilds like NS- hard to get into the game type when you’ve not really done it before but any practice is good practice and it’s quite a shock to see how different open field is from gvg

Hopefully we see you guys more later during the week or maybe during leagues

I’d say even for AR or slight net gain, but nothing too crazy so far

I don’t know if it’s kain xfers or if ET fell apart that badly but kain seems to be doing a lot better as well

Dr’s gains seem like an over exaggeration – we’re fighting them right now and it doesn’t seem that much different

BHo.6234:

alvinjason.3109:

Come run with us in Devona’s Rest. We have four guilds with an OC shift. one of them is a big guild.

Yes DR has picked up quite a few transfers and has a pretty dominant OCX/SEA crew.

can always join AR as well

whats the point in playing for a server in a tier with mediocre ocx coverage if all you’re going to do is pvdoor :P

join AR, skip the pvdoor, and kill those new DR xfers

I’m going to make my last push for Anvil Rock here since xfers end in two days. Many people are a bit shy about picking bronze they hear the fights aren’t the same or the servers are empty, but I can tell you that the opposite is true. While there isn’t a real GvG scene, the open field and numbers for the lower tier servers aren’t bad at all. I see enemy zergs in EB ranging from 40-60 players during Na prime as well as (depending on who you fight) a healthy Ocx population.
A big draw for potential guild leaders is the fact that there is definite room to grow a guild down here. Take for instance the guild I currently run. I came down to Anvil rock with 5 people and now there’s 80-90 logging in daily. It’s also a roamer’s paradise with several roaming guilds on the server as well as throughout bronze (so you always get those fights). So why pick AR over the other bronze tier servers? It’s on an upswing. The server has really gotten together and has begun to generate serious momentum. New TS (streamlined), new site, and new contact lists. Out with the old and in with the new. There are a lot of players who really care about the server that have been here through thick and thin. So, if you’re tired of players/guilds lording over you or those annoying map trolls, come down to AR and improve your gaming experience. We’re accepting like minded players and you know we won’t fold like a cheap lawn chair when the odds are against us or when living story comes out. We’ve risen 2-3 ranks without any transfers and done remarkably against much more populated servers. Give us a shot for leagues and have fun again.
If you do come to AR be prepared to have a fight on your hands
Good luck wherever you end up (and remember if you moved early in the week you can move again for free to AR) and see you in wvw

You guys have Grím right?

Really respect players from HoD cracking down when we mailed them about potential spies.

Look forward to more fights all around with you guys.

I have yet to see kyro kill anything that’s not the grub or run over anything that’s not >10 man karma train

http://youtu.be/VOsBGJ4QA50

our fraps guy is on vacation so I’ll get the other vids of eternal in sometime later this week

quality stuff – love the claims of wiping everyone on your forums too A+ forum warriors … gotta boost morale somehow

Blade Of Gandara.6738:

bumping kaineng cause kain is cute and i feel bad for killing them in WvW over and over again i type /cry when we win the battle and i

…so it’s like when TBT sees Kyro only without the “feeling bad” part… I think I understand now

Norin Swift.6342:

Kaineng hasn’t gotten any big guild transfers, as far as I can tell, but we have received a few roamers who have certainly helped. A big WvW transfer would actually make an enormous difference to us. That said, any individual can make a big difference too.

If you’re still considering jumping down, consider Kaineng. We’re always in fights, always defending, always pushing when we can, and relentlessly fighting regardless of the odds. If “winning” by ppt coverage is what you’re aiming for, you’re not going to find it on Kaineng unless we get more trasnfers. But if you want a daily challenge in WvW and a tight-knit WvW community, Kaineng welcomes you!

Give it some thought.

Gonna plug AR in there as well, but I’d be really happy to see some guilds for Kain

massive tenacity

MadBomber.3719:

AR is really starting to pick up steam and is continually growing stronger each day as a community and in WvW. Join while you can and be a part of something special!

yup and to gain any kind of edge this is what DR has to do – at least I know where our siege is vanishing to lol

must really be threatened to lose against AR :P

DaMikenatr.7041:

Bump for AR! Awesome group of people who we always enjoy going up against! They like to bring out the fights and it’s always so hard for us to say no!

Thanks, <3 GoM

Nuzt.7894:

Bumping and Welcome to our new guilds.

Same – welcome guys!

So far so good. Still looking for players who want to have a great time on the lower tiers. Great fights all around.

bump for our new allies on AR

Seasons are going to be fun :p

looking for more guilds pvx or WvW especially havoc squads and roamers

Phlogus.2371:

Take the time to come to Devonas Rest today! We have the targets you need. We are scraping and digging in to climb up out of tier 7. You skills and effort can make a huge difference.

what do you mean by “targets”

happy to have you guys !

it happened pretty recently. We went out of our way to avoid you guys and respect the fact that almost all of your NA wvwers left… hell we even tried to get a few guilds we knew to move to you, but then, on Friday morning, ET’s community leaders posts how trash AR and TBT is after you had nightcapped everything for a slight lead … hell we tried to help because we felt sorry for how few NA wvwers you had during our time.

not only that but they delete the GvG requests and training offers we offered you guys as well as banning all our guys and only leaving the positive thing we said about you … sounds pretty backhanded to me

I still have friends on ET, but I’d hate to see any players make the mistake of moving there.

I have nothing but good things to say about Kain, GoM, FC and SF… even DR to a lesser extent although I only speak to grim when he’s commanding (haven’t fought DH or Ebay recently).I hope they keep growing and do well in their match ups and I have had nothing but positive interactions with them on their forums. You guys, however, are a much different story. It’s just a game but this shows a lot.

-Becoming prominent guild on GOM. <- this one is interesting, bold claim my friend
bump your thread nonetheless

nah just when you compliment a server and try to prop them up after their main wvw guild leaves & commanders beg you from /w chat to get off their bls and then they turn around and delete your threads / post how bad your guild is you realize why you left that server in the first place

I’ll let you hold onto that post on your forums.

I mean… you guys even whine about matches you can’t pvd in on the official forums https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/wuv/wuv/Gates-of-Madness-1/first#post3766659

Anvil Rock has one of the strongest roaming / havoc environments in bronze or silver… and you won’t get run over by massive blobs. This is a server where your guild can grow and become better. Friendly advice is given freely and strive to make each other better players. We’re looking for pvx or wvw guilds that just want to move over and have fun while knowing they can count on the other guilds here to help them out when they need it. AR has risen ranks from the bottom without having any kind of transfer – we don’t pop smoke when living story comes out.

Also, we have quite a few ocx guilds Zero TFH Kingz to name a few as well as a growing EU base.

edit: The bottom vid is a couple days ago would have more but our fraps guy is going to vegas (how dare he have a life!)

I did not create these just linking them :P

Your sig + this topic = I love you

or… come to AR

fun + wvw = profit

We drew the pic while we were fighting you could have been anyone

Join the dolyak army today!

but yeah I really enjoyed fighting GoM so I’m going to bump your thread

hope we can do it again sometime soon you have some really cool players

Easterbunny.6170:

It wasnt 100% your way Cid. :p

I actually really enjoyed fighting TBT even with the odds. I think you guys should come to GOM actually, we could use a guild that does set builds, we actually don’t have anyone doing that currently.
