Guild Wars 2

Hello!
Had 1 week vacation on your server for about 2 weeks ago, was an okei server to be, but it had nothing to compete with against Aurora Glade imo.
We can offer you pretty much the same what Underworld have done for you, great PvE presence, medium to high WvW presence. Loads of WvW guilds to join in all type of sizes and styles!
We are a very friendly community and therefore attract us people because of that, which our new guilds can pretty much conclude with, and therefore we havn’t lost any of the new guilds that have come to our server as they are having such a blast on our server!
We have different events on the servers, such a Tequatle killing events about 1-2 times a week, open mic’s in WvW, server tournaments (even have 1 guy that’s started he’s own broadcasting of commenting sPvP matches, focusing on the 5vs5 matches that are to be found on our server).
As we have a high PvE population, we will fluxuate a bit when we’re losing and not in numbers, but all the guilds rock out no matter who we fight against, and we have our usual commaders, veterans and new people coming into WvW all the time!!
We got server TS and a very active server forum which just have been upgraded and renovated!!

If you need any more information, feel free to wisper me!

I’m just gonna stop here as I’ve learned my lesson before, pretty much that it dosn’t work to discuss with the people on Abaddons Mouth. Over and out, just plopping in a picture of what met us every single time we found Abaddons yesterday: That fight we lost, the 3 others on the same place we won. http://imgur.com/5zaQhlh

If you did, I’m pretty sure I tried to duel you many times on my d/d ele, under the guild tag FIRE or PROT, but I always got you down to 20% hp and then you always just vanished

If you would like to fight any d/d roamers I know TUP got atleast 1 pretty good guy, Slomo, I dont mind doing duels now and then, but it depends on the time due to me being Australia I normally get rubber-banding during aussie prime due to 750 people in the same building on the same connection (not all at once ofc., but you get the point I hope :P ), also we got a really good guy coming back to game that is guildless atm, Rizadon, 99% sure he’s up for some nice duels aswell.
You also now have Intigo that’s d/d, and this is just a few of the d/d I know of so there is more then enough to pick from if you would like to fight d/d ele’s
Think you good sir. have just been very unlucky with your searching^^

I remember a long duelling session in front of RoF spawn in our border some time ago, in which I faced a lot of bunkers, mostly dd eles and healway guardians.
If you were in one of those fights, I think you were so tankish that I had to use all my stealths, shadow refuge and heal included, to try to burst you down it was only natural for me to recover a bit when such assaults didnt work – still, they were great fights. It was then that I realized I cannot kill bunkers on my own with my build, but Im ok with it so far
Too bad RoF didnt make it in silver, you had some great roamers and I learned a lot fighting you guys!

Edit: screw me, for some reason I thought you were from RoF. Just don t mind this post at all xD
On another note I really cant recall any fight against a dd ele in our match up vs AG I probably missed you

I’m not very bunkerish at all, but I know when to dodge against thiefs as I’ve been dueling a lot with thiefs in my guild, so tried to learn when their big burst’s are coming But if you are the TEO thief I think you were we dueled like 3 times were you ran away all the times after getting down to 10%^^

A LOT of awesome room!!!!

I know it seems very, very unlikely, but after experiencing it against servers were I know people, and testing that out with them to see if it actually is true, the testing actually builds up under that statement

Funny how you say that as most of the people we faced Elona yesterday only fought against us when they outmanned us, or they ran away, only exception was GD
To bad you like to talk ugly about your own server mates there Romek :/

The reason it dosn’t happen so often for you, is that because of some wierd reason the bigger group normally dont get affected by the skillag as bad as the smaller group.
Multiple times when I’ve ran in our EB blob not having skillag at all, and getting wispers from friends on others servers were they had a smaller group then we had and they almost couldn’t use any abilities except their auto attack.
So in your case Romek, you probably wont get affected by the skillag that much as I guess you are only to find in those 70+ blobs

Today’s question, how many Elona Reach players and omega golems do they need to cap any single objective?
Answer: 60+ and 10ish Omega golems

This is the most boring matchup EVER!
Just wanna thank GD from Elona for being the ONLY group so far that’s not running in a 80+man blob, props for that. Rest of Elona and Kodash, can you PLZ split up, ur kittening destroying the game with all the skillag your causing in every single fight, kittening stupid.
And as Vorago said, give me Vizunah any day instead of these two boring servers that does nothing else then blob up with 60+

If you did, I’m pretty sure I tried to duel you many times on my d/d ele, under the guild tag FIRE or PROT, but I always got you down to 20% hp and then you always just vanished

If you would like to fight any d/d roamers I know TUP got atleast 1 pretty good guy, Slomo, I dont mind doing duels now and then, but it depends on the time due to me being Australia I normally get rubber-banding during aussie prime due to 750 people in the same building on the same connection (not all at once ofc., but you get the point I hope :P ), also we got a really good guy coming back to game that is guildless atm, Rizadon, 99% sure he’s up for some nice duels aswell.

Think you good sir. have just been very unlucky with your searching^^

Aurora Glade are a great server in both sPvP, PvE and WvW.
We’re having multiple WvW, sPvP and PvE guilds. Our server got it’s own Teamspeak and the server arrange almot daily open mic event’s in WvW, we got atleast one weekly Tequatle kill event for the server and the possibility to dungeons, fractals or whatever PvE you like is possible 24/7. In addition there is arranged sPvP tournies once a week/every second week.
Yes, we are a very high populated server and therefore cost’s about 100-120gold to transfer to, but we offer you all the aspects of a game and are one of the most stable communities and population wise in the game. Been very few guilds that have left the server, all in all it’s been 3 guilds that left the server, were 1 of them came back after a few weeks, while another left to NA, as they mainly thought we didn’t have enough coverage and didn’t like to lose a keep or two every now and then due to being outmanned pretty heavily at times. The third guild is an original AG guild that thought we came to high up in the tiers and wanted to fight at the lower tiers, funny enough that guild now is on a server that’s climbed all the way back to the same tier/almost same ranking as we are at now.

Anyway, if you got any more question feel free to send me a PM, or check out our webpage here at http://www.auroraglade.eu/community/index.php and maybe even register and post a thread and get a response from the community?
Have a good day!

Oh lord, Deso will then turn into the new Blobbadon were ADAC has been swapped out with PT

As Ethier said, I highly doubt AG will be in the top 3 due to very low off peak coverage. Yesterday I was lucky to gather 3 people to defend EB and AG borderland from 3am-5am, while we normally have 10-15 players from 1am-3am and 5am-10am.
Our primetime in the other hand is very strong, probably not as strong as GH’s is now with all their new guilds just pouring in^^
And to the guy who said AG roamers are boring to play against, GH roamers are also very boring to play against, 90% perma invis thiefs is not very fun to play against Some of them are really good though, while others really should re-roll to another class^^

I’d take Kodash any time over Blobbadon, Zumy
Say cheers to the 3 Buka that ran into our minizerg of 8 people on Kodash map for a few min ago To bad the other Kodash people didn’t wanna fight with you guys :/ would have been a very interesting fight with around 8vs8

Thank you Jade Sea for all the lootbags you gave us while we defended our garrison. Unfortunately we lost it after 3 attacks from you guys, quick summary of the attacks:
Nr. 1:
60+ JS trying to hit garrison with rams, 10-15 AG’rs wipe them out on inner gate.
Nr. 2:
40-50 JS trying to hit garrison again with rams, 10 AG’rs wipe them out on inner gate again
Nr. 3: .
25-30 JS attacking garrison with 2/3 omega’s, 2 alphas, cap’s the garrison with 3 AG’rs defending, while we still killed some of you.

Dont got anything else to say then your servers is the biggest quantity over quality server I’ve ever seen.
Just a question, were do you guys get your zombiebots from? Just so we know were to not get ours from.

Aaand I see it’s Kodash turn to invade our territory in EB, for then JS to come into it when Kodash have gone out and Kodash back in after that etc. You guys know that you can also fight eachother in EB? Think I’ve seen Kodash enter JS area in EB during night/morning 1 or 2 times the last 3 days :/

Hey JS and Kodash! FIRE is back in action now, had some nice fights on Kodash border with some of the JS guilds and the massive Kodash blob!

OMG, how come I havn’t seen this thread before now! Someone pass me some popcorn! I love the guy who posted the link to this thread on our own forum!
May the spirit in your forum warriors forever be strong so I wont get a borring moment anymore! Dont let any insult from the other server bring you down, devour that anger and send it right back at the person who sent it to you! Puuuush puuuush puuuush!

Bumpy bump! Still looking for SEA, NA and Oceanic players/guilds to help our ranks!
Dont worry about little action as 6/7 servers around our tier, both bellow and above have a night presence that’s from 2 to 6 times as big as ours!
AG have become a very heavy EU-primetime server and mostly dont have any problems at all ticking the highest during that time. We even tick the higest during EU-prime in our matchup now, were the servers we fight is 9 and 7 ranks above us!

Here at Aurora Glade, EU, we starting up more defensive play day after day, as we barely have a night and morning coverage anymore, it’s really important for us that the few players that are online during those hours have upgraded camps, towers and keeps that’s also sieged up. Having more defensive players during those hours will just strenghten our friendly server even more, something which is badly needed for us atm. This week we are fighting a rank 6 and 8 servers, while we are rank 15. We are holding our ground very good and ticking the highest during the EU-primetime, but are dropping down to 100-150 points during night and morning due to very low coverage at those times.
Therefore we would more then gladly welcome you to our humble server and good luck with the possible move in the comming future!
(Also if you have more questions, dont be afraid to give me a PM)

Nah, I just think it’s wierd when 20+ is spawncamping 3 people for 25min+ while ur own borderland get painted red

Bump for Aurora Glade! We are in a big need of more players during EU-offtime hours. Which means SEA/NA/Oceanic primetime etc! Guilds and individuals are welcome that covers hours OUTSIDE of EU-primetime as EU-primetime is as good as full atm.

Btw, Kodash if u wouldn’t camp our corner in EB all the time, and started to push JS, the point difference between u two would be less, and you would gain ur positive raiting! <3 Ur welcome for the hint!

That was some awesome fights, to bad Kodash gave up so quick after just two wipes there. Wish we would have had more players on the map, have a feeling we might could have capped hills if we had 10 more players :P

This guy did it before he died though, and I had got him down to 50% after 5sec… gotta say I’m dissapointed in people who actually do ALT-F4, as I see it as a minor cheat.
And to do ALT-F4 just to stop someone from gaining 1-3 points, that’s just very low from that individual. And then I’m speaking about generally

This is why I’m happy to be in the middle tier. Were people actually do upgrade stuff, they do defend stuff, and u still have zerg vs zerg, guild vs guild, roaming and everything.
May I ask, what tier are u guys in? As it looks like u are all in either T1 or T2 as u got so many players to do the karma train to flipp everything, or in the bottom tier were it’s just simply unbalanced and not possible to defend stuff.

Hey MARA staff ele, sylvari with the rank “legend”.
You know that when u alt+f4 u will die when u are in combat?
And thanks for the yellow longbow u dropped for me when u did it

Well atm, all servers in rank 10-15/16 in the EU are pretty much equal, not much difference during primetime for them, it all comes down to off-team presence. Who got the bigges night crew and morning crew. Atm AG don’t have ny of them, Kodash seem to have the biggest morning and day crew, while GH and the biggest night crew.

Not sure if it even is the biggest or just most effective, I myself havn’t been able to log into game yet, and can’t get back into WvW before wednesday due to vacation :P

I didn’t mean that the guilds you have now are bandwagon Genotix, I ment in the past years. When u lost like 4-7 guilds to Blacktide^^ And we lost the same amount to SFR almost :P
And I didnt know INC was only on a vacation, just assumed so as there hadn’t been any vacation post on the forum^^ not that they have to tell everyone that though :P

And also what TheGreatA and Dranul said, most people have given up on the point game as you are just wasting the money you gain in the game. Dont think AG got 1 single guild that fuel more then 10 people daily that play’s the point game anymore :P

Highly doubt GH get’s more affected then us for the PvE patch, here the other day we had over 150 people in TS killing Tequilla… :P
As for WvW population on AG compared to PvE, the WvW is nothing, I dont really know how many guilds AG have that got 400-500 members that only does PvE think it’s up to 4.5 of them. If we are lucky, they might have a group of max 5 from those guilds each :P In addition, AG havn’t recieved any guilds the last month or so now, and in the last month AG “lost” a guild aswell.
After what Dranul said about INC, which if I’m not completely wrong actually were a PS guild?

But yeah, AG does for sure have the possibility to have more people in WvW then GH as we’re classified as Very High populated, just that 85% of those people have never stepped a fot into WvW, or been there for more then 1 hour a week, and that’s only to run in the EB zerg to get those achie. points for killing invaders most of the time.
So what I’m trying to say, I would rather have a medium population were you got the same “core” logging in every day as what you on GH most likely have managed to build up after you’ve been going up and down in rankings like a rollercoaster due to bandwagoning.

Bump for AG!
Mainly lack off-peak hrs coverage like in the mornings against the 60+ breakfast zerg from mostly the german servers, while having 10-15 people defending all maps.

GvG’s are supported for the guilds, but not on home borderland if it’s under heavy preasure.

Guild have already stopped playing this game because of older patches and this patch, nothing new with that, and Anet don’t care as they think they got an infinite line with people coming into the game to earn money on. Little did they know that the 10-15 people in my guild that quit the game used around 100-200 dollars a week. (I know that’s not a lot in total, but think about how much they lose when more leave)

I dont think it’s overkill at all.
Last week AG was matched up with FSP, which was 6 ranks bellow us.
The difference in coverage and the numbers of players is so big that’s it’s not fun at all for AG to fight against FSP.
I even remember one time when I was on Ruins of Surmia, we got matched up with Vabbi and Fissure of Voe, this was before the guilds left RoS, but we steamrolled both servers so hard that people didn’t even bother to log into game, even ended up with my guild moving from RoS as we couldn’t stand having to fight nothing for an entire week.

So three leagues in EU seems pretty fine tbh

Dont worry, in 1-2 hours your morning team is waking up, and u will have 500+ instead

“World vs. World
Fixed a bug that reduced performance in WvW.”

Hmmmm, bloodlust is still in the game, sure you fixed something?

Columbo.5924:

I already saw the announcement of their last raid. Why are they leaving?

A lot of people got to much going on in real life atm, some is just to tired of the stalement in the game, and some just dont like this new update at all as it destroyed the only thing 50% of us found fun in this game. So most of us decided to stop playing, some will stay playing but not under the name of FIRE, but will join other guilds and a few of us are making a new guild to continue, atm I think it’s 10 or 11 that will do this. But yeah, Anet screwed over our guild with this new update so we just moved on.

Rank 190 something and still havn’t got a single ascended ring! Also done over 100 fractals at lvl 12+ and no ascended ring there either!!
Random drop rates clearly dosn’t love me!

Watch ussss <33333

“How to wipe Aurora Glades” – Spontan Raidlead auf Lichtung GL

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvPGsc4mb78

edit: this is no provocation this was fun Aurora had a huge defence go on nice fights at your garnison

Hmmm, whilst this was not meant to be a provocation, it is also not particularly impressive. From the kill stacks you gain and the xp ticks after that, it looks like you killed around 35 people from your arrowcart, which is highly likely to have tagged every enemy. From a rough count of your allies as they then run up past you, it would appear you have around 40 players inside that tower with you.

Do you consider funnelling lesser numbers with siege support a good thing to make a video about? If you were with a group of 10 then yes, gratz, but this was just meh.

It was your tower so we had to stay inside for recap. Our number was 36 cause of /supplyinfo a second ago. Enemy numbers were at least equal cause outside were much more but they stayed outside after getting the first 30 to 40.

The siege was build cause we knew how many Aurora really had. It was a nice evening. We got whole map without garnison and westtower. Aurora has numbers and we saw it when we got into the lordroom in the garnison.

You played very well and wiped us very often especially at your garnision

U know /supplyinfo only work when they stand directly on your character? :P

As my fellow Co-leader Malkithe said, thanks a lot to everyone for awesome fights we’ve had with you guys, win or lose! We will see you guys in the next big game, which atm, looks to be Wildstar for us!
Cheers!

Thanks for the fights on EB tonight Very profitable night!

Phantom.8130:

i’ll be honest. i’ve never participated in a GvG. i’m mainly a map objective style player, with penchant for dropping an absurd amount of siege on a daily basis. i like defending and attacking towers and keeps (in that order), escorting yaks and running supplies. judging by the dev posts, i play how they intend WvW to be played.

that being said, however, i am…… very very confused. i mean….. a separate GvG map wouldn’t really need much to it at all. some have said just a big flat area would work, though i think sinking the floor to create kind of a pit-fighting deal would be better. then spectators could watch from above. there doesn’t need to be much scenery, just some collision boxes to keep spectators from jumping in, a repair merchant, some sort of portal entrance, and maybe some walls. all in all, not a major undertaking at all. and if Anet really wants a part of the game to be an esport, BLAM, there it is. the GvG community appears to be taking care of everything else about it, from organizing matches to working out rankings.

it really doesn’t seem like something that needs to be destroyed, just…. moved slightly. then everyone’s happy. GvG players can do their thing without worrying about stat discrepancies or interference. WvW players can do their thing without worrying about queues being affected. Anet gets a legitimate esport. i can’t think of any logical reason for it NOT to happen.

The only reason I can even think of that makes Anet not support GvG, is that it’s actually something the community made, and not something they actually made themself, therefore it wont be “their product” that they can take the credit for, and they are probably just to stubborn to admit their errors and mistakes. Selfpride ftw…..

Someone on my server said there was a statement somewere here on the forums were the Anet devs stated that they do NOT support what we call GvG, but they might, just maaaaybe make what they call 8v8 deathmatch, as u had in GW1 based on the sPvP system. Just the complete opposite of what many in the community actually want….
Talk about listening to the community……

Sexy Aussie(atm) Asura commander flagging off for this week!
Thanks for some fun fights this morning for u Viz, afternoon/evening for me, and thanks for giving me completely empty keeps Kodash^^

Fun fights today at Kodash border against Meta and MoS. Thanks for the fights even if it didn’t go very much in our favor. Tried our best with the 20 of us, hope we gave u a good enough challenge

Blacksmoke.5792:

Come on, you know that we don’t always runaway … if you want to outnumber us stop playing WvW in forums and try to play it in game.

That’s the problem, we didn’t outmann you, you guys were two or three time our numbers most of the times when they ran away from us to their spawn or into the tower.

I know not all of your guys run into towers or run away from an open field fight, I just want to know on what map those guys that fight goes to, so we can also have the pleasure of fighting them. Can clearly see that multiple people from my own server say’s that you guys dont run away, and I do believe them, I just havn’t had the opportunity to see it myself except WM and WL. So shout out to them, again.
WM is a guild that’s pretty much equal to our size so always fun to fight, WL run with more then twice our numbers most of the time, so against them it’s a hard challenge and then the goal is mostly just to survive as long as possible.

Dranul, what borderland is it you guys are having this epic fights? :P We have had some really good fights on EB, but not much anywere else :/
Started out on Kodash borderland with only FIRE and HoB where we had the outmanned buff, every time we met VS on that map they ran away at once when they saw us :/ untill there was a VS guild of around 40+ that tagged up to rally the pugs as it didn’t look like the other commander VS had on the map did have that much open field training as they just spread out and ran. When they did so the guild of 40-50ish had 30+ pugs with them aswell, think it was [meta] or something like that?

Later in the evening a small group of VcY and DAWN joined us on the map and removed the outmanned buff on us and we were in pretty much equal forces in total on the map, which made us cap both bay and garri at kodash, but after trying to use our abilities and none activating after a min. we decided to swap map to EB as we knew the VS on that map don’t run from a fight, normaly…

We met [WM] on EB at the start, great to fight against such a guild that is not afraid of fighting, so a lot of props to [WM] for the 2 clashes we had there. Met the huuuuge group of [WL] again that was probably close to 40-50 with some of the random Vizunahs as they seem to always be flagged on when they raid, even with that many people :O
Had 1 clash with WL first with our 19 guys, ended up with half of us getting wiped while they let the rest of us go, thanks for that. What I do not understand though, is that when you guys were attacking Mendons, our commander came with 15-20 and we were still only 19, but then you guys were to afraid to fight and decided to run away from a group that was even less then ur size, which then made half of your group get killed while you tried to run back to your towers in your courner…. If you actually would have pushed and stayed to fight you could have had such an amazing fight, and as you are such a huge guild group, you had the numbers on your side and should have won that easily, but chosed different…

Hope to meet WM again more in this matchup, most fun guild to fight in open field from VS that I have met yet, as they seem to be the only guild group from VS that dosn’t run such huge numbers that they cause massive skillag or run away

So let me plz know what borderland you have been to Dranul so we actually can have some of this awesome fights you are speaking off! Or if anyone of the guild leaders or event leaders on Viz would like to wisper me ingame at around 7pm uk time so I know what borderland you are on so we can find you!

Such a big loss for the WvW and GvG community
Hope you will enjoy your new game Ogro!

Nobody said we owned you, we just said that the only thing that’s hard about fighitng you guys is your massive numbers of yourself and the pugs you bring with you and the massive skillag of 5+ second delay psst, try not to break the game next time we meet and I’ll be more then happy

As you know, or probably dont know, it’s hard to fight 80+ people with only 19 people, u need to have something called skill and not just spam button nr. 1 then

MiLkZz.4789:

There are only a few organised guilds on Viz, and their quality has dropped.

Can’t let you say that, even tho the rest of your analysis is pretty much on point : we are the “different kid”.
There are quite a lot of guilds on Vizunah, some part of the Grand Cross alliance, some are on their own, but they usually assign themselves to a map for a full week. Hence, giving the impression of “not many guilds”, if you yourself stick to a single map.

And some of Vizunah’s guild are amongst the best in EU, they just don’t play the GvG game for now. Few guilds were on par or above the famous [RG], Vizu has some of them : [WL] or [LNM] for example. Many other VS guilds would hold their own quite bravely against the best current guilds, if there is any decent way to determine who they are.

About the PPT count : it doesn’t even matter at all anymore, so no, you’ve never seen a serious VS player brag about PPT in this thread. All that matters is the first place of the matchup, and, because we’re proud, perhaps the first place (even tho the matchups seem to favour SFR).
But, sadly, there are no other ways to rank servers. It’s ppt. It’s going to be ppt even in the new league system. So perhaps for some of you it doesn’t mean anything, and it is only proof of superior coverage, but the facts remain : the server with the highest overall ppt will be declared winner of the first season.

We fought WL at EB yesterday with 19 people, only hard thing about them is that they have 50ish from themself and 30+ pugs werever they go, wouldn’t call that up to skill against RG :P far from it tbh
