Thanks for the awesome bags and fun times on SOR BL.
NS, EAT, qT and those who were there, great job.
qT had a great time facing ICoa at ruins with 19 of us but were interrupted by your other zerg. Luckily, the other guilds covered our back and we continue farming our loot.
Anyone find it a little annoying that you get matched up against teams who are in the level 50’s while your team mates are only in their 10’s to 20’s?
Dont get me wrong, I love playing against good players and you can learn from both losing and winning matches. I’m just wondering whether the team pairing would be much more “balanced” where you are faced against people leveled plus or minus 15 your level. After all, a level 4 player would have little to no chance against someone who’s in their 40’s or 50s.
Building and Using a sup AC against 8-10 CD , Ehmry Bay ? you know what that just gave an idea of what you guys are all about , tyvm and have fun the rest of the week.
Excuse my painting skills..it had to be done “professionally”
Maybe you should count the pugs you had as well. There was about 20 give or take. The only reason it seemed like you only had 10 was because you guys kept purposely suiciding to contest the cap and steal supply so you could build ACs on the hill by your spawn.
After a certain point, we were just farming you guys and had to build a merchant behind the supply camp because for some reason, commanding pugs to dive and get farmed seemed to be the right decision. It also gave FTF the head start to break open outer Hills which lead to the cap. GG?
idk about you guys but did that explain why you had a sup AC while you outnumber us by 3:1 ? no ,and we knew we not gonna hold hills with outmanned buff and the 60+ you guys had in there and pulling ur force from BP bl..its cool, just don’t denie and change the idea of you having an ac while you outnumber ur enemy..not to mention you guys are a solid group cuz i give credit when it suppose to be given, you guys stick together with a nice combo but that AC just kittened up
That was one of the best farms we hakittens filled just from 1 camp. Guess you can say the AC there was to speed up the process of farming. Not to mention we had to split up half of our 20-25 man guild group to take turns to empty our bags. Keep em coming for the whole week ty.
Sees 35-40 FULL QUEUE! haha. Anyways I could have hit all over the map and mad it hard but we got tons and tons of bags. Just wanted to take the south towers and go to bed. Good fights Rekz. You guys fight very well and i’ve learned a good bit during this match up. rB being about 2 months old has a lot of growing to do. Hopefully next time we see you we can have a GvG?
lol, i’m used to be in ALS while they were in anvil rock. So i got friends that i still communicate with, thats what i got from him. Just saying. so either my friend is saying the truth or you are saying the truth.
Good work DB on flipping our SE tower on ebbl. Do u guys even need arrowcarts and ballista at the first place just outside your spawn? Your full queue was rolling into the tower just fine when the wall went down
Thanks for the great battle at south east camp earlier, first time ever my bags were filled up. Before u think we have 80 rekz members, we had 29 online that time and around 10+ pugs together with us.
I don’t understand why people would continue to suicide to protect a supply camp. In 40 minutes, I made almost a stack of badges and it wasn’t even satisfying. No strategy, no skill, just suiciding with numbers as a safety cushion. It’s a supply camp.
No skill, but there was definitely strategy. We were at or near the outmanned buff for most of the fight, so we were holding your main force on the map at a supply camp with inferior numbers. We were hoping SoS would snag bay, but we’ll accept other supply camps and Dawn’s instead.
Death is light as a feather.
lol, main force on a supply camp with inferior numbers?
Mind you rekz had about 20-25 there while you guys were just pouring out from spawn, our other force which was pk was on the other side of the map taking care of kaineng invaders.
thanks but we really need you to do some work on TC instead
ooo my bad, some hash brownies made me a lil too happy there. It was SOS that kept pk busy.

Gulp, i’m caught red-handed!!
jokes aside, i’m on a sabbatical and chilling in ebay server.
My guild is having an event, like a guild bounty to hunt me down
To the group of defenders in DHBL, thanks for the great fun!
i was the mesmer with the 2 thieves battling out with you guys, alas all good fun comes to an end.
To the ioj guys in arbl, i dont know whats in greenwater camp but somehow u guys kept going for it, there must be something we do not know about in that camp that really interest you.
I enjoyed the battle with you there, and a special shout-out to the female norn ranger from prot, the warrior commander from ART and HOSS members. Thanks for the great fun
I was looking at the WvW ratings when I noticed something neat.
Anvil Rock has the lowest Deviation and Volitility of all the servers in North America
SOLID AS A ROCK!
Good observation, also means that we’ll be in this tier for a long time more :p
DH, i dont know how you do it but its funny how your AC from the breakout event can hit our inner cata by the supply hut. I’ve took a screenshot and sent it to the devs for evaluation
Reduced the number of maximum of stacks of Retaliation allowed to five (was 25). Duration still stacks.
This is a PvE change but affects WvW alot as stacking on a Righteous Indignation Supervisor and spamming light fields + blast finishers will now take 80% longer to kill them.
With the change to Righteous Indignation coupled with the change to Retaliation (Supervisor will only get hit by 5 Retaliations instead of 25 per Supervisor attack) supply camp raiding @ 4 mins and below will be the new meta for PPT as they will be almost impossible to take back before PPT reset.
•Using stealth no longer resets NPC aggression tables.
Does this mean no more hiding thieves it towers/keeps to res mesmers.
That simply means monsters previously aggro’d onto a Thief will re-engage the Thief as soon as he leaves stealth assuming his aggression score is higher then that of the monsters temporary new target (the one it switched too when the Thief stealthed)
Not almost impossible, it will be impossible. You can start at 4:59 and run and get as many camps as possible and they cannot be taken back before the tick. A good tactic would be to send small groups to all the camps at 5:00 and cap them all and you are guarantted them for the tick.
Ah, ok. So they lose aggro while stealed but when the ycome out the NPC’s will come after them again.
I couldn’t care less about righteous indignation, now i gotta try new builds to neutralize thieves as retaliation is my favourite way of dealing with them
lets do it again!!
i’ll meet u there outside your spawn again
Both the ele and I logged, need food! I’m sure we’ll meet again. I retract my early statement that I have not run into any good ALS players.
lolz, think those fights lasted 15 mins until one of us went down.
that ele of yours had too much mobility, so we had to target you most of the time ^^
That’s what I’m built for! Yeah, those were long tactical fights, loved it. Maybe you’ll reconsider how badly your tPvP guys will stomp us now.
lol, i’ll retract my earlier statement too :p
but i haven’t had that much fun in awhile honestly, all the button mashing lol

PAXA are the ones that all dye their armor that god awful yellow color aren’t they.
They spent 2 hours the other night camping my friends corps (he was afk) while I ran in circles around them. They have dedication, I’ll give them that. It was really fun though, they almost got me a few times.
TBH all this talk of fair fights and kittening. Why not just get into tpvp?
Lol. Sure.
Lol, AR tpvp would smash paxa since our server is known to be more focused on pvp.
But hey, that means paxa couldn’t pack their tails and run anymore
Well, my dad can beat up your dad.
cool, bringing dad’s into the forum.
No way my dad is gonna be occupied with your dad, he’s earning millions and millions of $$$, he’ll be too busy for your dad.
Anyway, i know we’re just being competitive in wvw but there’s no need to bring in family members into the forum. Just a lil consideration.

Hello haydenstar, fellow singaporean here in Anvil Rock. We need more Asian, Oceanic guild presence here. There are no queue times here and even a 20 man wvw group can really make an impact here in Anvil Rock.
Only loyal guilds here an Anvil Rock and our server had only gotten 1st place twice in our wvw history match up and guilds from oceania and asia can really make a huge difference for us in wvw as we’re primarily a NA server. Not to mention, you’ll have great pvp experience here in our server as we’re known as one of the best servers for pvp ^^
We’ve got an alliance and we have a generous guy who set up a teamspeak server for us and thus coordinating attacks and asking for reinforcement is as easy as can be.
You’re falling behind. You gonna let NSP overtake you guys? I don’t want any lame duck excuses like “we took the week off” from you guys this week. You’re still in this fight and its anybody’s game! My sheep haven’t seen your [GOAT]s in 2 days. I want this fight to be decided in the hours before reset.
As for NSP, good show! Good fights! You’re [LOST] and [QQ] crews were super vigilant in defending your supply camps in EB last night.
Huh? We were there last night stopping your mass golem zergs on every single one of our keeps, and then we went and took garrison in your borderlands and almost took bay until you waypointed a giant zerg as we almost killed the lord. Also we are sneaky kittens so you wont see us much
Thumbs up to you sneaky kittens, we all did an emergency pull out from your borderlands when we heard that you were in our bay.
Meh, all the talking talking talking, he say, she say, i say, who says………..
More action needed rather than talking, and do the talking on the battlefield.
We’ll see who come up tops on friday, but i gotta say this week for wvw has been great fun.
Please keep the forums clean, and if an insult is given, do it on the battlefield
rather than just bickering with words.
Congratz to nsp for taking SM, we’ll be coming to knock on your castle door soon, and maybe even knock out some nsp’s, who knows.
So, in the end, I think that the outmanned servers aren’t having fun (I’m not) playing Kaineng, so we are letting Kaineng pass, rather than bang our heads against a wall.
As a side note, I like this tier for what it is and the great battles we’ve consistently had against evenly matched servers such as NSP. If AR were to get massive guild transfers and started steam-rolling people, I would probably transfer elsewhere. I personally don’t find being on either side of unbalanced fight very fun. Anyways, I wish the best of luck to Kaineng and I hope you guys do well in the higher tiers. It is nice to see the server I started on climbing the ranks.
I’ve had lots of fun. Allies coordinated significant defenses on our home borderland for 8 hours following Friday reset. When we get frustrated, we don’t blame Kaineng. Instead, we go into PvE, level up some alt characters, discover jumping puzzles, 5-man some dungeons, etc.
Then, when we’ve cooled off and are ready for more WvW, we bring tens of new players into WvW by use of recruiting, promotion, and dropping Guild boost banners. We train them on basic strategies and tactics, and show them how WvW works.
I try to spend some time each week playing with a group of people I’ve never met before. Sometimes it gets me onto a guild VoIP server I didn’t know about, and I make some more friends.
If Anvil Rock got “massive guild transfers”, then those transfers would have to contend with the fact that we are not a pre-transfer server of the class which Kaineng was a few weeks ago. However, this isn’t even possible while Anvil Rock is classified as fully populated, so don’t even worry about it.
Leave the kids to play on the lawn, while we clean our house from the inside, out.
I’d say we do have server transfers but not of the magnitude of kaineng and DR. Besides most of them are here for PVP since we’re considered as the best pvp server. If only we could get those hardcore pvpers to get in wvw, but our weakness will still be time coverage when most of our players are NA based.
I for one, not looking past AR or NSP, am looking forward to the possible rematch with Devrona Rest next week with even numbers this time. It was awesome fighting DR.
Im sure anyone who has been with Kain is looking forward to the rematch.
Much respect goes to AR and NSP to some good fights in EB during reset. NSP holding their keep so long impressed me.
IMHO, you guys would roll DR. Heard some bandwagon guild left DR already, besides i’ve been with AR for a long time and this is the first time i have encountered an opponent server that dominates all 3 BL + EB.
hi dovgan, our numbers just cant match theirs, the can split their zerg into 2 forces of 20-25. Thats usually what i do anyway, start both timers and end result will still be the same. I’ll be around wvw to start some insurgent uprising against the kaineng tyrannical empire.
See u on the battlefield ^^
If u see ALS, its probably one of them in the guild that you saw Dhampyr. Too bad we do not have much night crew, if NSP with a decent night crew is being trashed, what more AR lol
Tough Draygo, didn’t even have time to properly build defenses and the zerg is already there. I can see just 2 others with Brad and 3 more coming towards tower, and look at the zerg that kaineng had. Wooden wall + 3 cata’s and loads of support from the zerg, how much can one do to farm badges from that zerg? You down 1 or 2 u got 15-20 to rez their team mate. Wishful thinking mate, wishful thinking
Thanks Kaineng for the great matchup this week, undisputed winner already only on the 2nd day of the reset. Its not that we’re not giving everything we got, its just er………… well its for you to judge. Also it was quite funny to sneak around in our own BL just to take camps and sentries. Oh not to mention we treated our towers we capped from breakout like a keep, but Kaineng responded back with a 20-30 man zerg to retake them within 5-10 minutes.
Looks like i’ll be spending more time on my thesis this week and probably do some dungeons. Cheers again Kaineng
To the ZZZZ and NVP guild in Darkhaven, you guys bring trolling eb JP to a new level. Building a treb and having about 10-15 players inside, you guys made my day. I would expect to die a lot quicker with 5 person attacking me, but u guys gave me a good challenge.
To the asuran guardian from Side Effect guild (SE), it was fun dueling with you just outside NSP spawn point. Was quiet in AR BL until you along came for some fun, kudos to you for your sportsmanship and skill in using a hammer, Sword+focus guardian.
