The biggest mistake you made was saying that VIN is a roaming guild. VIN used to be the (only) biggest active pve guild on Vabbi. 3 weeks ago it disbanded because the leader and the officers transferred to Gunnars hold, Gandara or SFR. Some will still rep VIN for unknown reasons. For the last few months vin didn’t had a big influence in WvW anymore. This was because their main commander left to gandara.
I guess that’s why I thought that VIN is a roaming guild
I think, last time we were up against Vabbi, VIN also had some bigger groups (15-20 ppl) …
I usually also don’t remember guild tags unless I see them very often or there’s something special about them (like condi bombing on DZ’s NOX blobs – apparently NOX doesn’t have teambuilds and every public just runs with roaming builds – or that hilarious mistform-warrior of elco ^^). But since you mentioned them, I remember the guildtag SWAT and WAR.
@HtFde: I get the feeling you have some kind of blurred view on what’s the situation. I’m on WSR myself and what I observed is this: you have a lot more players than we do and can afford to have scouts in every keep and almost every tower. If one of your structures gets attacked, your scouts apparently message their friends and our rather small attack groups (in case the attack group isn’t a guild raid group) gets overrun by at least double the manpower that we brought.
Also, apparently there’s enough players on DZ that it actually is possible to build and maintain (retag) siege which isn’t really possible for us to do.
Yes, WSR has a rather good nightcap in comparison to DZ but starting from about 7 to 8 am german time DZ outnumbers us almost everywhere.
The fights you put up though aren’t really based on skill or commanding but on blobpower. Especially in EB there’s always a big blob of publics running around (30 – 40 I guess). In a WSR 1:1 DZ or 1:1,5 or sometimes even 1:2 situation DZ zergs lose against most of our guild groups of about 15 ppl from what I’ve seen.
A few days back I even met some guy from DZ in pvp who also said that DZs success is mainly based on manpower and outnumbered fights. He also said that WSR always puts up good fights. So I guess that your view of things is not exactly right.
To answer the question of the OP:
Blacktide: almost no organized groups and not exactly skilled roamers. Even in the last tier they are overwhelmed by the other servers.
Fissure of Woe: Also a quite low population. Can’t remember any roaming groups of FoW but sometimes you encounter a small group of them.
Underworld: Fought them last week. They have some organized groups (Wvw gone Rogue e.g.) during primetime but not much roamers. I guess, their “roamers” are mostly ppl doing their dailies. Population there is also quite low.
Vabbi: some good roamers are based on Vabbi though there’s almost only zergs during primetime, I guess. During the day there’s some small groups of maybe 5 – 10 ppl trying to take towers and a keep here and there. This week they really push hard into our corners and since friday we had some nice fights against evennumbered groups of Vabbi. We’ll see how that works out
I don’t know what’s up with the guild VIN (vis in numeris) though. I think there’s quite a few of them but I mostly see them roaming. I guess it’s a roaming guild?
Fort Ranik: Are quite organized and my guess is that they have a little bit more ppl in WvW than we do (based on the numbers of players I’ve seen scouting and defending their BL while they still have zergs going on elsewhere). During primetime there are some organized (?) groups running around EB and the BL. They will defend their stuff in their BL really hard and apparently also have some communication going on between players. They also have some roaming groups here and there. FR also has some guilds that are seen in WvW quite often. I think I’ve seen GeT (or similar), ELCO (dat mistform warrior, lol!)… I don’t really remember guild tags and I’m fighting FR now for the second week since I’ve started to play again last year in october.
WSR: we have some guilds who are dedicated to WvW. We vanquish Worlds (WvW) and TasH are the most known although there are other guilds that try to make themselfes known
We have a bunch of roamers that also scout and stay in touch with commanders to inform them. During primetime we have 2 – 3 or sometimes 4 guilds raiding (WvW, TasH, Wolf, TT, CC) and during the day members of the WvW guilds and publics loosely group up to roam and/or take towers/keeps.
(wow, sorry. that post got longer than i initially planned ;D)
