now now (ar)… lets not get ahead of ourselves gom still beats us for the season; not to diminish whats gone on this matchup. dont need forum warrior antics to show up, this has been an awesome matchup so far.

dr, you are cordially invited to join the party and hit non-ar objectives. we’ve been very focused on gom / taking first, but we can change that if needs be O.o dont want you to feel left out but maybe that high ppt isnt enough for ya?

Week 7 - Fight For Second - SF/DH (and ET)

What an entertaining thread… when not thumping their chests about how pro they are for beating the 3 worst servers, they’re complaining that black friday killed their chances at 2nd place…

Congrats DH on your 2nd place win (assuming you keep this up, which why wouldn’t you). It was quite apparent what you were after last week; you were a server on a mission. An unrelenting ppt machine, and it looks like its paying off for ya. Don’t let the terribads take away what you all have put into this. I’m sure its been hard fought. Keep up the good work.

also, we all enjoy reading the multitude of excuses. its like the comic section of the internet.

you tried more than once to do something besides fill our inventory with loot (seriously thank you, I made a lot of gold tonight)?

After about 20 failed open field battles, failed tower defenses, failed sm defenses (most of the zerg had cashed out and gone to bed) we noticed white swords at hills and found you with 10 or so golems at inner hills ninja’ing your way in to wipe the t3 upgrade. not a huge achievement considering its right there by spawn, you didnt hold it long, we wiped you soon after that with little effort shrug we’ll rebuild the upgrades (we took your bay at the same time btw).

gg I sure had fun playing with ash tonight tho, & though I can’t believe you guys did, it looks like you did too.

should be a fun week. remember what goes around comes around, anvil doesn’t sleep }:)

Most difficult living world achievement

in WvW

Posted by: Steve Whitley.8359

Steve Whitley.8359

I dont know, most camps I hit roaming will have 2 yaks in it, so you hit that you get 2 yaks right there, its exponential. 50 camps over the past 2 weeks is 100 yaks without even hitting the ones between towers. if you take long enough to cap it (solo / small party) 1 or 2 more may even pop up doubling that figure.

when i went to finish up that one i only had to kill a few more. it wasn’t totally unmanageable.

Haha, amusingly that’s the one achievement I didn’t even bother with, it seemed like too much of a waste of time. I decided to spend that time taking towers, keeps, camps, zerging, sentry killing, dolyak butchering…

That and sentries, I’m about 12 off from doing that one, probably finish it by the end of the week, but since I got the key there isn’t any pressure.

i’m not about to do a jumping puzzle tho O.o never been to OS, never will

I want a title of its own for the merc camp achievement given that there were only 3 in eb (bl’s were replaced by bloodlust) only 2 were really feasible to cap solo / small party roaming and there were 50 of them (which i did over a few day period) and really that’s numerically 100 if you end up flipping it back to neutral then capping.

I think the only ones I had to go out and get last week were yaks, guards, ruins and merc camps, I got everything else just by playing.

Support guild looking for a new home

Posted by: Steve Whitley.8359

Steve Whitley.8359

We have a lot of smaller guilds on anvil who we feel play key roles for us in “holding the fort(s).” we have a strong core wvw group which span na and oceanic regions so it shouldnt be too tricky to find others to roam w/ during other time slots.

Unlike the zergfest servers you will be noticed here, welcomed, and appreciated, and will find plenty of people to recruit from to bolster your numbers if you are looking for that sort of thing.

Hope you can find a home on anvil. Hit any one of us up on the forums or in game / LA.

Perhaps teaching your server how to play would be a greater benefit to everyone instead of showing us you have a 2nd account somewhere… or are you shunned by the WvW community there?

what would you know about our server or what i or anyone else does on it? we’re actually pretty good, have done pretty good weeks that we don’t play you guys, but thanks

Welcome to the AR crew that just transferred to SF.
We’ll get you set up later tonight before our usual WvW run starts!

THANK GOODNESS!!! less pugs! the quality of ar wvw just got a +9001 stat boost.

we’ve been discussing what to do w/ that lot. looks like somebody “fixed the glitch in payroll” so we wont have that “problem” anymore.

no giving em back, but it looks like they fit your playstyle anyway.

Still beating you though, LOL!!

is that just so funny to you? i guess what they say about the easily amused is true.

i’ve attached a little graphic for ya to show something (shouldn’t be hard to figure out but, i’m not easily amused, and dont troll mags and sos on my other matchup thread, go figure) to compare a good server w/ you guys.

anvil is dead last, you’re 5 places up from us on the current standings, ahead by 157 rank pts, and (at the time i did this) ahead by 133,399 pts.

contrast that to the jq where i also play, who is also matched up against a server 5 ranks below it; ahead by 382 pts, but is (was) ahead by 207,754pts.

so… am i sitting here (or over there) just laughing my self silly about that? trolling them about it? no. i understand how it all works, am a good sport about the game, and generally try to have a fun time about it.

now you guys… yall come in here, and act like the greatest thing since http://kitten youautocorrect.com and generally make everybody dislike everything you write say and do.

come on… clean it up, stop being punks. there are other servers better than you, who play better servers, beat better servers by larger margians, have better players and are generally much nicer to be around than you lot.

do us all a HUGE favor and get over yourselves.

Since my match up is boring was browsing the others and holy kitten kitten fest in here.

Hey, since IoJ is the AR of the silver tier, consider moving your Euro and Oceanic presence to SF, we’d appreciate it and we would certainly make silver tier next season with full coverage. It may be boring here too, but at least you wont get stomped for the other 5 weeks!

you’ll be up there next season getting 24/7 owned, so why would he want to waste gold just to have the same thing happen all over again when he can just stay put and farm you guys next season?

Sorry, but did you not know that ALL olf WvW is PvP

Yep, i’m aware of the centaur, skritt and jp areas of WvW, though personally i stay away from them… everything else is PvP because its not me vs an npc there another person behind the guy i’m fighting which makes it technically player vs player, now if you have some other definition of what pvp is, that’s your problem not mine; if your server wants to play wvw differently than every other server out there, that’s your servers problem and we’ll all have to deal with it on a week by week basis (unfortunately).

When we have players on, we get 500+ ppt. Then night hits and we have maybe 20 people if we’re lucky, like a school day off for the teenies or something. Then primetime hits and we crush our opponents again.

that’s funny. i dont play primetime unless midnight to 4am cst is na primetime.

You obviously don’t know much about WvW….Not trying to be rude, but it is pretty obvious to anyone that has spent even a little time in WvW that: Coverage=Wins.

there is literally only 3 things that can be deduced from this statement:

1) you are extremely rude (hence all the deleted posts, reports & rage pms as you’ve stated)
2) you are literate as you can read other wvw threads which state the same thing
3) this statement is false since sf is obviously still where it is and not in silver or gold league… because if you guys can keep that many people in a map 24/7 but get owned whenever comparable numbers come around, then its not just about numbers / coverage, its also about knowing how to use your numbers

and that my naive friend is wvw. and that my naive friend is why sf is where it is, because your herd follows the likes of you and yours

So you should be directing your attention to those on your server that are in your own words " reflect badly upon your server". You have individuals that are confused in this thread putting down bronze servers while playing on bronze servers. I dont represent my server, I represent me on these forums. I dont think there is a single person on SF outside of my legion of fans that think I represent SF in any capacity.

Yes I know how it feels to be stomped in match ups, its part of the reason why we are stuck being Blue for 6 out of the 7 weeks of these leagues. .

so i guess this all boils down to me throwing the “come to sf… we’re so kittening awesome” talk, back at you guys after having to 1) get constantly 100vs1 rolled all week by sf @ 3am in an empty map, 2) CONSTANTLY spawn camped by sf every match up we get, for hours on end, like there’s some award for it… 3) forum warrior antics about how (already mentioned this) first rate the server is, as if the server has experienced some anomaly and by some weird reason is down here in the gutter instead of in the gold league… to the point of open recruiting in the match up thread like some gold seller we all come to love/loath in lions arch.

i dont just play here. anvil is by far the best pvp server, jade quarry is by far one of the better/best wvw server, but i spend most of my time on anvil… because its one of the best places to play, has some of the best players in both pvp and wvw, and generally has a huge lack of trolls like we have to deal with on the weeks we have to match up with you guys. yea, there are a lot of skilled & talented commanders / guilds & things that we lack over here on other servers, and we could benefit from their skill and knowledge and i’m sure there are TONS of great people on your server, but you few vocal minority give it such a bad name that most of us cant stand to play you, and most of us wouldn’t want you anywhere near our server.

I’ve faced “zergs” and talented zergs. what you guys run is pve farmers. anvil hasn’t always been last, and when we have numbers you’ve seen how quickly we can dispatch of your karma trains, and i know you know what i’m talking about…

so… tldr… anybody on anvil who knows me, knows i’m just as cranky to our players as i am to you guys. you’re not pro… you’re in the shatter just like we are… just w/ more ppl.

you guys have a better night tonight? because w/ even numbers we wiped you every single time we met in arbl and eb and we took everything you had every time we tried.

its no wonder you send such outrageous numbers everywhere; because without that our small man groups would stomp ya like we did tonight and your players would stop playing like they do all the other times your server tries to play wvw…

had some fun, then like real people who dont spend our entire lives idling in an empty map, i logged out and am headed to bed. i’m sure in a couple of hours your server’s no-life’s will zergroll it and sit there for hours on end and continue to do the same thing they did before we came on tonight (this is the really sad part, and i’ll quote you about “this is just a game” there).

you guys are super… have some cake

I find that hilarious and completely and utterly sad. so, am i mad??? omg no HAHAHHHAAA that question is so full of win i almost forgot what to call myself.

jq, bg and sor should watch out for you guys… oh wait… oh yea i forgot you can play the disappearing game just like we’re doing as soon as you meet a server w/ coverage, which is why you’re here and not the silver league HAHAHHHAHAHAHA.

Well, this is going to be a slow week for SF

you get to sleep in the bed you make. it can be as fun or as boring as you make it. roll 120 ppl per map 24/7 and kill the 2 man group trying to take a camp, and you’ll find it’s going to be really pretty boring.

pretty typical sf as ever i recall. here’s to killing sf w/ boredom this week. too bad you’re not talented enough a server to make it to the higher league to play in a real competition so you’re stuck with having 120 ppl sitting for hours in empty maps watching for white swords to go and kill 2 ppl… brilliant. that’s awesome… yes can you help me w/ the gold cost to transfer there. i’m def. wanting to get in on that. oh wait, i already have another account on a t1 server that’s winning so no thanks (and anvil is still the better place IMO than sf that t1 server).

That sounds rough. I would suggest taking the tower, if you havent already. That will probably get them out.

AR is mad. or just very disrespectful. funny situation when you beat an AR in a 1v1 /bow then get zerged and that AR you killed gets rez then dances on your corps lmao.. Ive been sat on and danced on a lot from AR and im like why so mad? then I look at the score…oh

so, since you bring up the score (which i find interesting that you’re so proud of), the only team who’s in positive territory is anvil…

DH is down (at present) almost 19pts for the week making you guys within 19pts of nsp, so next week, if you get matched up with them, who knows you may end up switching places, so rather than gloating how awesome your nearly 100 point lead is, think about how much we appreciate the boost it gives us for your #16 rank server to come down here and let us bleed points off ya

last week anvil was ranked #24 and we managed to bleed 10 pts from FC and 12 from DR and move up a spot, this week ET’s bleeding FC and could end up helping us move within a few points of another spot…

so, with servers like dh and et, who could be mad at you guys <3 you’ve been so helpful with our rebuilding efforts.

ar frequently runs commanderless (until recently i guess), and does fine organizationally through map / party / guild chat and ts even though we’ll have a number of untagged commanders on the map.

we’re not asking for pity, we’re doing just fine… its called a change in play style tactics. you’re not going to find a huge mass of players that roll you like cd or tc or any high ranked server.

if you want a fun match up, split the horde. don’t bring the entire server in one place at one time. we weren’t the ones asking were everybody was, weren’t even in this thread complaining about anything. we can weather the storm, makes little difference to us one way or the other; we’d rather be playing but… you know; not against that big ball of hate.

ok meph… let me know how it goes…

lets say tomorrow was reset, bottom of the server system was your server (meaning there’s no moving down to catch a break every now and then). you’re matched up, bp and jq… for the foreseeable future, that sort of combination would be all you would ever see: you, some comparably matched server, and a random t1 server. you guys gonna come out in force and keep them at bay 24/7 or are you going to try to adapt your play style to keep up with the massive na presence, the massive oceanic presence (not trying to compare you guys to jq but you get me)? might you even just take a break and let them cap everything, get bored and run off, on the off chance you might come in, and find the place emtpy to steal a few ticks? might want to chew on that for a minute. would have never crossed my mind before we got down here either.

@meph, its not quitting. its the recognition of the brick wall when you hit it, and when to stop running at it. not much we can do to stop the brick wall from being there at this point know what i’m saying? kind of pointless for us to try and be competitive against that. wait out the storm kind of thing. we all love wvw, just kind of pointless to play when the herd is stampeding.

when you play in the mid tiers there’s fluctuation from week to week. you move up and down, may get matched up with someone else, but here… when you’re the last place server… there’s only the servers who come down to play you. pretty guaranteed that they’re all going to have more players than you (at least during na prime time), you’re never going to be green, and you’re going to be the underdog. both servers are going to target you because you’re the low hanging fruit; easy points, they’re going to camp your borderland, stay in your corner of eb and trying to move out offensively is going to be next to impossible unless you can gain some sort of numbers. that’s from servers that are somewhat close in rank to you. now you get some server that’s 7 places up the chain from you come down… pretty much everybody is ready for next week on reset. When that server just starts karma training the server like they have no skill and nothing better to do… well then the server thinks, yep, we can find other things to do this week i guess; we’ll bleed points off them just by them being here; its all good. and they move on.

if our na day time / oceanic players can pull our score ahead and make it look like we’re in the game this week, then our na prime time players may jump in and have a go at the brick wall that is that zombie heard, we’ll see.

i was out taking wc w/ 4 the other day, when 3 players couldn’t take us, the entire server wiped us then proceeded to move to our corner of eb and wipe it for the 4th time that night, right after they did it to gom. they stuck around and camped us like the person in this thread is talking about. while i can see some 5/10 man crew coming to take out a couple superior ballistas and a treb dug into rogues with a mesmer, theif and 2 guardians, but the whole server seems a bit overkill dont you think? we didn’t even have wc at 50% at the time.

haven’t met you guys in a while, but when gom was healthier they did the same sort of thing, and when sf was healthier so did they, so all i’m saying is that when you’re server is depleted of players as ours has been, and this sort of thing has become the norm, you either get totally frustrated, or you chalk it up to “just another week of some server thinking they can karma train us all week.” the best strategy to defeat that… is to just not play their game. pretty frustrating from the other server perspective isn’t it… well so is losing all your property to a server who wont diversify their zerg or play competitively and spawn camps, and, and constantly rolls over blue then red then borderlands then… 24/7, so, not trying to be an kitten , just saying. if that’s how you want to play, enjoy the pugs, cause that’s probably all that’ll show up this week. i’d rather have another good competitive matchup this week personally.

we’re in the process of trying to rebuild our server and that kind of junk doesn’t help build morale or server points (which we still get because you were ranked #16 coming into this match up so we just get to bleed points off ya by taking camps all week anyway, thx).

9/20 DH/GoM/AR

in Match-ups

I’m going to come out here and say that DH (from what I’ve seen in the past two days) cannot fight….at all…..Now, I’m not trying to be offensive here, I’m simply stating observations. Sunday night. We had a GoM group of maybe 20 guys retaking our side of EB. Let me tell you how it played out. The 20 or so GoM managed to break into the lord’s room of our keep. Now, DH had a zerg there of maybe somewhere between 30 – 40, probably closer to 30. On top of this, they had the invincibility of the keep lord, and ac’s…..GoM managed to kill all of DH, while we were continuously being pelted by the invinci-lord. Why did GoM win this battle? The DH players we fought were absolutely terrible. I’m sure this isn’t a server wide thing for DH, but those 30+ I fought were something horrid. Later, as we were defending a tower which DH had already broken into by the time we got there, we had a group of 10 or so against a group of approximately 18 – 25 DH…..once again, we won. From what I’ve seen, DH relies solely on zerging and the players I’ve fought have been hopeless beyond belief. Clearly, numbers are the only thing on your side. Once again, I’ll reiterate, I’m not attempting to blatantly attack DH with my comments, simply observing their ‘tactical’ WvW performance.

lmao.. im spawn farming GoM and AR with 15-20 ppl right now and GoM 25+ and AR has 30+ and yet im mopping the floor with all of u guys……. HAHAHAHA

just make sure to get your transfer in before the deadline, because servers like that down here (assuming that’s where you’ll be for league play) just dont last… what goes around comes around. I know it doesnt seem like it right now cause you’re on the bottom rung of the ladder, and we’re all off doing something else, and you’re picking off the low hanging fruit who’ll stay there at spawn and try to get the keep back at the door until it actually turns blue/red/green (oblivious to map chat saying come do this/that/follow commander whatever)… so gjhf enjoy what seems like a victory. perhaps you and the ppl out at spawn have a lot in common might want to party w/ them and strike up a riveting conversation about algerbra?

no GoM or AR anywhere. no roamers or anything, what the actual F?

this is t8 not t5. welcome.

both servers are pretty depleted to the point which you do not ACTUALLY understand, arbys and se leaving dont begin to touch what ar or maybe even gom have gone through in recent history; Cant really speak for gom but they’ve looked better i can say that for sure, but when we’re constantly steamrolled and spawn camped every half hour by overwhelming numbers, not trying to even keep it competitive, yea… this is what the week is going to be like.

hope you like pve, cause you’ll probably be doing it by tuesday..

If you want to split that zombie heard up and focus on not trying to wipe a group of 15 with a group of 60 every time then i’m sure you’ll get a better response out of us. gotta adjust to your tier. we started strong but when you keep rolling the herd and keeping it uncompetitive, i think most of us said eff it. and let you have your candy like the spoiled kid.

Dear AoE(FC) Thank you for showing us the worst WvW guild I can remember in my entire history of playing this game. Sadly we had to leave the tower your zerg was trying to take to deal with an actual threat(3 man DR group) at our Hills. Please, don’t ever change.

It must be very frustrating for you to see your server drop like a rock to last place, but sarcastic posts and guild call outs on the forums still ain’t gonna help you win any matches. In fact, they just make you and your sever appear weaker.

get over yourself. he’s calling you out. its called competition. dov’s a bit passive aggressive but a really cool guy, the only way to shut him up is to stomp him; if you can (at least you have the opportunity, he’s on our team ;)

btw in case you’re living under a rock (anvil rock?) anvil is currently in last place so we don’t care what we look like, we are the lower server (for now), we’ve been doing pretty good lately, so we could care less how we appear but we don’t have the lowest points at the moment so that should be motivation for somebody.

WvW Commander Mastery

let them make a better commander system first. right now i see no point in joining or having people join a squad. /squadinfo is pointless as squad size is limited and if they’re not right there they do you no good anyway, and if you happen to be one of the unlucky > 30 ppl running w/ some commander then you’re heftd in the hey.

Server Population Loss

yea the bloodlust / league play stuff… dont know what all this bs talk is about for us on anvil (maybe people who aren’t playing wvw?). as far as anvil is concerned I think we are and for the most part have been unaffected by it, if anything boosted by it (maybe not the bloodlust but league play maybe… prospect of some kind of reward). past couple weeks AR’s posted positive numbers for the first time since all our wvw guilds left, and we’ve actually had people transferring in from elsewhere for some reason, we’ve had strong reset nights for first time in recent history which has helped out through the week. but i’ve seen that’s not really the case w/ other servers we play against and yea, that sucks for us at the bottom generally speaking.

how about: bring back sea turtle (or something similar, doesn’t have to have the actual gw1 turtles) like npc’s that players can ride / use (camp upgrades possibly) as they escort, that way you (the game) know who’s escorting it. they’re harder to take down or fight back while moving solo, bring more supply are heavier equipped for ppl escorting them and multiple players can use them against a zerg / mini zerg.
