Undermine.1678:

Well, Darkhaven is starting to fall apart as predicted. In the homelands they only manage to pull up 4 defenders per objective… rest of them just sit around and camp the garrison.

Soon, there will be nothing left owned by blue.

undermine, have some faith! we are still a learning server. afterall, we came from fighting in the 2nd last bracket man~ NSP is the new guy on the raise they have fought soo many wars and battles we have not. Ebay is another formidable enemy. We should strengthen our evening and nightcrew while rally up our morning/day crew if we want to even stay in this bracket! all the people you in fighting in dark haven are the hardcore players that did not jump ship. we will only get better through experience and battles. i just hope that when people starting to feel the ropes of wvw they dont jumpship to another server =D

half naked norn

Harpazo,

You guys fought great last night! I really been looking forward to this fight. I think our server as well has been waiting to fight someone clearly above our bracket! I hope everyone in dark haven can learn new tactics from NSP and Ebay!

See you in the fields!

bests,

half naked norn

p.s. dark havenians! when we get owned please at the same time learn enemy tactics, siege locations, general logistics.

Dovgan.8605:

Well, we have 2 options, we can dwell on it, or rise above it.

great fight last week,

we are facing lot more tougher enemies now…

how is the score? sorrow’s furance sucks after they had their kitten kicked by us last last week, most of guilds in sorrow’s went to sor or jumpshipped…

if you two ally up together u might have a chance against sorrow’s =D

Guys don’t get so happy the fight isn’t over, let’s keep up what’s good and get ready to use PLAN B as we have discussed in guild leader meeting. Keep the troops Mobilized!!!

-half naked norn

Last time I posted a fully green map and called it Eco-friendly dark haven MOD removed my post callin it bad taste…

Double standards

That’s what dark haven as a server did when sanctum of rall hacked. Guess what happens now, they won we lose. And they think they kitten all over my face now. What u need to do to a hacker is, win more.

Softies!!!

Alright I’ll stay away from all you social lite softies! I’m a battle thirsty Norn after all!!!

-HNN

Worban u careBear =D these trolls will say everything they can to defend their server, blaming losing a battle on everything that is legit. Other than hacking, I never complaint about lack of players or rendering. Anyways, I was here to help, turned out they didn’t need my help, and thought I was been an kitten ok. That’s fine. I’ll do everything I can to kill these guys over and over. See you on the battlefield! I won’t even feel sorry for running you guys over with my Zerg, we need to move up the bracket else we become rusty…

Would you fight a 10man Zerg in a Pangloss with 5 ballistas head on with 10 pugs or Flank it hard with 30 people and finish the fight in 15 seconds? I see why why your losing and whining. And it took us less than 15 seconds to clear all of you plus the ballistas. we then moved on to kill others zergs in other maps. We r truly busy at all times.

I’m not going to answer your sour loser trolling anymore. Look for me in the battle fields, I’m always half naked not wearing my breastplate, why? Cause your not worth it.

whole day today i was getting intel from scouts from 4 maps on the lcoation of large enemy zergs, and hunting them down… it was fun overrunning bigger zergs with smaller forces

Dovgan.8605:

First pic is the norm, didn’t get the screen of the 20 or so on the other side of us, second, well that’s the most fair fight I have had with you guys so far DH, and I still downed one of you. I guess you’re right, it isn’t the numbers, it’s you elite skills, and incredible organization.

i led the day crew today, you guys had a huge zerg, 30-40 people in EB at one time siegeing anz i think.

we had 6 people stalling your zerg for 1 minute and calling everyone from other maps to join the fight, then we rolled you. twice.

most epic moment was when i got a help call from a friend in the mines in EB, he had 10 guys on the north entrance i had 20 guys charging in from south enterance.

once we charged in and killed all of you under 30 seconds, we were suprised you guys put up soooooo many ballistas (at least 5) in the camp lol

anyways, i feel you guys are pushing a bit harder today one time trying to take cliffside but its a huge mistake you dont hve enough supplies to build a treb to defend garrison treb, so we trebed ur walls twice, while watching you sat there manning your bounch of ballistas shooting at no one…

word of advice, get better equiptments man i see lots of u guys wearing lvl 10 stuff…

also, learn to pvp.

Kardiamond.6952:

@iii So in your head, we aren’t doing any of those right? We are just running around attacking garrison with 1 ram.

Right

Yesterday is a good example of what we did. We took every player from every borderland, going around and calling them to come to DH borderland. After 10 min of rallying, we still dind’t have the BL full, no queue. So what ever, we will try anyway.

We sent a little team to take camp and win us some time. The other got closer camp and got supply to siege. We did a 2 min siege of our bluebriar tower. Part of us stayed, and the other group went to scout around the Bay.

We had scout roaming around to watch for your zerg. It came from the east keep. They attack bluebriar tower. We hold it as long as we could to hold some time for our siege team.

Sadly you guys already had crazy number going around. Seriously, I saw the zerg and I knew even with everyone in the BL, we couldn’t stop it. Too many people, with Orb buff.

Once the tower felt, our group went north with the siege team in the bay. The outer wall was breatch, they were starting to siege the bay Inner wall.

Destroyed every ennemy siege, placed catapult, ram and ballista. We still were around 20-25 player at that point.

We got the gate to around 70%, then they started repaired it. They had 1700 supply inside, so the gate was goign down really slowly.

There were so many people on the wall defending now, that they wasn’t even rendering for me. The gate was starting to repair itself faster then we could damage it. Our scout called for a group coming from behind. It was over.

Say what you want about the number, but we know it’s not even. Except during primetime (9pm to 12pm if we are lucky) I always get the outmanned buff. And terribly out manned. During the evening, we had about 5 players in DH BL.

I didn’t see any different siege strategy from your server ether? Most of the time, you build cata or trebs, and protect it with your zerg. Since we don’t have time to build defence once we control a tower, and we don’t have the number to get inside your zerg, we are done for. We lost our tower yesterday by your zerg that built 2 ram. Seems pretty basic for me.

Mine to give me example? How can we be more efficient with siege, you are only saying we are doing it wrong, but no explanation.

And like I always say, if it’s so simple, why don’t you tranfer to our server until Friday to try. Free transfer, nothing to lose.

for a second i actually thought about it, heck, transfering to anvil will at least secure your 2nd place vs fergies. but…

why would i wanna do that? i already helped the enemy enough…

i never typed that much in a forum and definately not planning to, why would i help someone when all they do is playing the devil’s advocate

if you asked me nicely perhaps i might have considered it for kittens and giggles, but since i dont like your tone,

NO.

plus, i love my server, and they love me.

6. establish well known commanders in your server so everyone listens to him/her, this is very important because small guilds dont run servers, pugs do. by training and leading pugs a commander can do extrodinary things without even been in a guild!

7. coffee is your friend. if you can’t handle the night capping we are doing, drink it and make others do so, so you can stay up all night and fight back. our nightzerg is mainly US players who take a nap after work and wake up around 12midnight and play til 5am. it takes lots of commitment but its worth it.

8. plan a head, before you take a tower you wanna make sure you got supplies, you wanna know if that supply camp guardian has buffs, and when it ends. timing is everything, the longer enemy sees ur crossswords, the less suprise factor in your strategy. never attack anything the enemy is waiting for you to attack, unless its your last target. i always fake attacks and sneak undefended towers/keeps because i know enemy isn’t there so i could ram through gates under 30 seconds.

9. train your pugs to understand the importance of BUILDING siege weapons such as rams asap, i saw lots of un-constructed rams when we fought you. usually a pug pm me and tell me a tower is being attacked, so i tell everyone in my zerg to port to nearest waypoint to defend, it takes 1 minute to do that, by the time we get to the tower 1m30seconds already passed, if you can’t take a tower with reinforced gates under 1m30seconds you might as well not take it. SPEED AND TIMING is everything!!!

10. communication, we have a 200 player slot for everyone that praticipate in wvw, free of charge, also a website with social networking and forums to help players communicate. do you?

11. play a better PR, instead of talking about guilds leaving or whatnot, focus on rallying people up, SOR did a great job at PR last week against us, Keineng is showing a great attitude, you gusy should do the same!

12. a central command center that runs 24/7 to coordinate commanders and keyplayers. if you dont have enough commanders and keyplayers you must train those who are influencial in wvw to be them, heck, you should all pay for that guy to get his commander if he/she knows his stuff.

13. lastly, understand how the point system works, capture a camp before tally timer ends scores you points, capturing it at 9 minutes left leaves a huge threat of not receiving any points due to possible flipping.

i hope these tips can help you guys out, if all guilds left wvw in your server, do this, make a guild and recuit ALL of the pugs that does wvw daily. start your own guild, you guys definately got the numbers.

-the half naked norn of darkhaven

alright, here are some tips for anvie and fergie, i wanted to tell these to dovgan but he refused to come to our vent…

1. you guys have the numbers, please stop complaining about it. the reason you run into larger forces is because we tend to rally everyone from all 4 maps when we need to get anything done.

2. you guys simply lack the experience of sieging and defense. say whatever you want but, i have yet to see correctly placed siege weapons both in offense and defense from your end.

3. you guys need to get better in personal pvp, try spvp for a week while ur not doing wvw, it greatly improves your skills. cause when i run into your zergs of 10-20 people, they just sit there or back peddle and get slaughtered, everytime, there is zero cordination among players. no one seemed to understand the improtance of flanking, rushing, and retreating. ask anyone in dark haven, our smaller forces over run your large zergs all the time.

4. play smart, we really dont have that many people you are talking about, as i mentioned earlier, first thing i do as a commander is go to every map and rally people to me, then i open map and look at our top needs, then i send /t a location of the nearest waypoint to everyone and we all port there and begin siege or defense.

5. supplies is one of the most important factor in seiging. before you start on a tower you need to know 1. what kind of defense they have (upgraded doors? siege weapons locations? number of defenders? supply remaining? enemy current zerg location? current fights locations?) you would have to have at least 2 scouts roaming the map getting you the intel before you decide when to take it. once you have enough people to take a tower, make wanna do a supply check, i usualy yell in team chat “supply check press 1 if you have” this way you know how many rams u can make, if enemy has siege on top you might want to get blistas on maybe a cliff that could take over them? think sunnyhills? also, never take a target you can’t take, because losing will demoralize the zerg and waste time. also, before i siege a tower i usually send a small force to distract your main force somewhere far away from you, so i can ram the undefended gates quickly. lastly, you wanna make sure you have a small team of 3-4 people that camps between enemy respawm/waypoint to the location you are attacking, so these guys (roamers) will pick off enemy remainders one by one, have you ever seen a 1v4 and win? exactly.

Sorry about participating in seige weapon spawn camping badge farming events last weekend, it was uncalled for and the idiot that started it is probably a Norn.

We cool now?

-HNN

NSP GoGoGo! GoGoGo!

i have to agree to zulubeast

dh is not organized, we dont have a nightcrew, its just some random zerg that happens to be oceanic, and

oh man these guys have no shame

i mean, i was trying to get a vista in anvils northern camp last night and these guys put up a good fight… holding their only camp for the entire server….

then dark haven nubs decided to do this, what you dont see is about 10 more siege weapons behind the trebs =D

shame on you dark haven! shame on you bullying less populated but better organized servers!

and tonight was all about green.

Waterbear.2764:

Woah woah woah. If all the person did, was happen to be underground, then you might be jumping the gun a bit. Any mesmer can tell you that every time they use staff 2 they roll the dice, and sometimes the game glitches us underground. Depending on where that is, sometimes you have little mobility, sometimes a lot, but the only way out is to use a waypoint, and if you are throwing AoE attacks at their location, you are just preventing them from teleporting out. Just citing another possibility.

have to agree with you bro, mesmers do that =D

Just target the player and report them, sadly all servers have idiots that like to hack but no need to do a server blanket accusation!

oh, so it was ok to blanket our server with the orb hacker last week? I see you posted there with no shame.

bro, these guys are known for double standards, they are obviously trolling you

but yeah, you shouldn’t call their server hacking, cause you will get this posted banned and no one will see them in action, you dont want that right?

u might wanna edit it like my post " anvil rock PLAYER hacking" or something like that

or u get flamed…

=D
grow up

do not flame me, i am not saying ALL ANVIL ROCK HACK, just that “one” particular guy i caught on ss

as you can see, the wall is not broken and the guy flys through the gates and flys everywhere

enough said. the guy fly hacks and wall hacks… wow…

GavinGoodrich.1382:

went to sleep with a fully-fortified keep and an orb on darkhaven’s map, many of us needing sleep also.

Woke up to 0 orbs, no keeps and dominant map being fully fortified.

Yet another timezone warfare story /shrug We did great while we were all focusing the limited #‘s of dedicated wvw’ers on one map, though. ninja’d the orb, held our ground again and again. No complaints here.

Last night was the most fun WvW night I had in three weeks from my perspective, it was pretty back and forth most of the night. Towards the end you could see the time zone difference as Fergusons Crossing started logging and getting taken over. We held a lot of territory and beat back Darkhaven into their garrison repeatedly, fighting them on open fields and owning them for the most part wherever we went. But we are not androids, and humans require sleepy time. At this point I am just used to waking up to a huge score difference from being night capped. Anvil Rock doesn’t have a night crew. If only we could convince some large NA guilds and Oceanic/European/Asian guilds to move to our server we would be very competitive. But it seems everyone gravitates to the upper mid to top tier servers.

well, whats anvil has to offer for the guilds?

our night crew is only 30-40 people on entire server!!! ur day crew has way more people than us, quite a badge collecting fest. really.

as of 10:19am pst, fergies out man us 3:1 at db, im going to sleep~~

so yeah, i definately dont have the numbers =D

last night experience…

i started playing around 10pm pst.

got online we had a +400 score, great, but someone told me that we lost for a few hours during the day. (i can understand why)

i got my crew together, we had around 40 people all 4 maps combined, we splited into 2 zergs, 1 zerg with 30, 1 with 10.

i cleared fergie’s map under 1 hour with 30 people and was faced with around 20 people opposition. what i have noticed is that, not to sound offending, you guys dont pvp much do you? my 5 man special team can run over your 15 man main zerg. a suggestion for your players, spvp moar?

then i joined the fight in anvil and soon enough we got your map…

then it was a quest to get +695… took us 1 hour ish and finially got to +690… but people were ninjaing our camps on all 4 maps it was pain… so i settled at +690…

then we went jumping puzzles and stuff like spawn camping for a few hours kept at least +650…

around 6am pst, red and blue both showing more people in numbers than us, i’d say 1:1.5… but to be honest, numbers dont count. so we kept the score around +630ish til 10am pst..

-half naked norn

Shame on EPIC and SIN and SoR Mesmer glitching DH. Is that all you got against the Half Naked Norn and his army?

You might as well find the naked norn and beg him to stop.

Omg someone found a picture of the half naked norn!!!

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/pvp/wuvwuv/WARNING-TO-SANCTUM-OF-RALL

just took this screenshot

came from 3rd, now 1st…

Day crew needs to join the night crew
And get some confidence back

we started 3rd place tonight 2 k points behind 2nd, end first place with over 7k points over 3rd place sorrows furnance and nearly 4.5k over sanctum. its 723am. i need to sleeeeeeep

Tariss.9813:

SoR player here, part of the “night-shift” players (Australian). I remember when the servers first matched us up against each other a week ago, I was amazed about how close the scores were, and even more amazed when that trend continued throughout the whole week. I must hand it to both Darkhaven and Sorrow’s Furnace for giving us a darn good fight (and continuing to do so)!

While it can be quite frustrating during my prime playing hours (something along the lines of 4am-7am in American time, I’m not sure), because it seems that DH has a very large night-crew compared to ours, at least the fights have been very fun and no-one has a non-breakable advantage.

Here’s to another week of exciting battles!

EDIT: Late night battles are not fun though. Too much DH zerg. I don’t blame you guys, but it’s certainly very frustrating on our part when we can’t physically fight back against 40+ member zergs in our own borderlands. Outmanned was displaying for a very long time.

You happen to run into the half naked norn?

Arius.7031:

“Ask anyone on at those hours, and they will tell you the legend of the half naked norn.”

Yeah, Darkhaven essentially has a half naked level 8 Norn that makes sure we take over during the nights. I’m not joking nor exaggerating, a half naked, like level 8 Norn, ask any Darkhaven night time player. The only reason we take over is because we gather everyone from all of the borderlands, instead of spreading out. In fact, sometimes we’re outnumbered by Rall and we still take everything over, because we’re organized.

Anyways, watch out SF, Dh intends to win this time around! Good luck and have fun SF/SoR!

Tell us more about this supposed half naked norn! I heard one time he decimated an entire army of dolyaks with 1 swing of his great sword, and when he roar, people send him gold.

neoxide.7320:

You understand that the only reason Darkhaven holds most of the land is because you have a larger population right? Sorrow’s Furnace usually has a 10k point lead and 300+ potential points until we get nightcapped by your huge population. Darkhaven accumulates freebie points for the 8-10 hours off time when WvW is virtually empty.

Dark haven does not have a night population,

There r at most 50 people on all
4 maps of all given time between 2am pst to 8am pst

Ask anyone on at those hours, and they will tell you the legend of the half naked norn.

GOOOOOD JOB DH!! FIGHT ON DHA!!!!!

Lurko.7185:

Did Worban finish the forums site yet?

very very soon

tonight the alliance got Dark Haven up to +585 and at one time Sorrow’s Furance down to +0

we need more US PST time guilds!!!

Ladies and Gents,

Three nights ago a secret mob boss meeting held place and led to the single largest unification of WvW players in Dark Haven Server history. We haven’t really come up with cool name for it (depends on which domain we get for alliance website), but its now known as Dark Haven Alliance.

What the alliance offer:

1. Dedicated Central Command Post where all guild leaders can communicate to each other to support each other’s war effort.

2. Free 200 slots ventrilo server for everyone in Dark Haven WvW.

3. Leadership and guidance for new guilds who are getting into WvW.

4. An interactive website with forums. (currently in construction).

Current Guilds in the Alliance:

Ashes of Kryta AoK, Brotherhood of the Arms BOTA, Carnage Gaming INC CGI, Dark Haven Elites DHE, Death and Taxes DnT, Defenders of Cormyr DoC, Hearts of Tyria HOT, Heaven and Earth HVN, Lcy Pheonix ICY, Legion in Flames LiF, Lunaticos LUN, Meep, Public Enemy PE, Purple Dragons PD, Penguin Squad PS, Red Solo RS, Saints and Sinners SaS, Smifro Farmers SF, The Royal Guards TRG, unDeFiable Ud, Pak Cafan PAK and many many more..

With our combined effort, we have managed to win our first day after the reset. After been recapped saturday morning. Our night cap team led by HOT has recapped up to +415 score during saturday night and for a few hours led our server score to top.

We are still working on a better communication system, and we want your inputs!

Dark Haven server is my home, lets make it better together!!

If you are a guild leader with active members interested in WvW, check us out in action! For more information please send a in-game mail to Seal The Deal. Thanks!

If you are a individual who happens to love WvW or want to learn the ropes of it, join our ventrilo and stick around! Most guilds are recuiting!!

You have my sword,

-Seal The Deal
