US----thornblade- AD what happened?

Aoe_Barbecue

But hey, wasn't my choice that they decided to move to Chillrend.

It wasn't our fault the EP got the *** out of dodge on Chillrend the second PvP got competitive on a larger scale there. Chances are if there's ever a significant shift of DC and AD to Thornblade they'll hop somewhere else. They've done it twice already.

Most people think that last nights were boring as hell and we desire with all our heart that every competitive guild out there will be back on the longest and biggest campaign soon enough.

Why should the AD and DC come back to Thorn? So EP can run off to Chill again? You claim EP wants competitive campaigns and when faced with competition THEY RUN. EP has done it twice already in what, 2 weeks?

EP are not the only ones that have done this. DC ran off to bloodthorn(or whichever campaign it was) when they were getting their butts kicked, and many AD players chose to stick with dead buff servers instead of actual, balanced campaigns.

its not faction oriented, people from every faction do it.

I remember that. Just when Wabbajack 1.0 was getting close to having DC catch up to EP and overtake them for 1st Place, they started regularly pop locking Bloodthorn (a campaign won by over 300K points by DC) against our little 2 bar EP population we had there. And Wabbajack 1st place slipped out of DC's fingers.

We didn't want a repeat of that on Thornblade. That's why we left a campaign that, at the time, EP was winning handily and transferred to one where EP was in third place.

We ran into many AD last night at ash

As far as I'm concerned, the only EP guilds who bailed off Chillrend lately are IR and The Veiled. Don't include me, I have nothing to do with them.

Every fight I'd get in was just zerg zerg zerg. Dodge a zerg ball on one side, run into one in the opposite direction, dodge that and I end up caught in the nightblade pickets.

This is what some people have dealt with for ages, fwiw, just other alliances.

Try being oceanic DC on last run of Thornblade

I commend you for your balls. Don't ever reroll. Fight the good fight.

Want to start the oceanic branch of No Mercy?

Jesus this type of post makes me almost want to roll DC.

Guild leaders... ^ this is how you lead

Venatus(AD) and Alacrity(AD) switched back to Chillrend few weeks ago and it made a huge difference I think. Also, The Veiled(EP) and IR(EP) came back from Chillrend so now Thornblade is slowly turning into easy-mode.

Coincidence? Red wants easy mode.

Add No Mercy and EG to that list of guilds that moved to Chillrend.

Guilds like Alacrity and No Mercy aren't loyal to either campaign. We intend to zerg both.

My worst day of PVP in memory, only 110K AP, I wouldn't have had that if EP hadn't pushed through the gates to feed me after they'd taken the scroll.

Even though it was boring as hell to cover the map in red, this was intended for what AD did to EP the first week of the campaign. We got camped on our gates for one whole week. How does it feel now?

Let's be real here, there was no decision on your part or anyone else to do this. It is done for the same reason AD did it....people are on and want to PvP and they have nowhere else to do so so they take what they can get. I don't blame you guys for it as it can't be helped.

I just find it ironic that many of the players who use to whisper me complaining about the AD night zerg pushing their gates are the same people pushing our gates now.

I was leaving for Chillrend to escape the AD zerg, now it will be because the EP zerg. It would be nice to have a campaign with some consistent competition on it. I'm seeing the same late night EP garbage on Thornblade that I left Chillrend to escape. It was blessedly balanced for about a week.

I don't leave campaigns for victory or easy AP...I leave looking for fun. While fighting 6 on 1 (and often winning) makes for great PvP videos it isn't exactly fun.

Trust me, if Hijinx and IR would have decided to not push and turn the map in red, I don't think anyone else would have done it that late at night. We've done it because AD has been camping us and night capping us non stop the whole first week.

I would not do it again though, I prefer to be busy everywhere on the map rather than trying to find something yellow to turn back in red.

The tick was wonderful. I also remember punching a certain person to death when my leader found him afk in the keep.

XD

I had a lot of fun at Ash that night. It was a well fought out battle from both sides.

It seems I've gained an admirer.

You're welcome to reroll. But you're only guaranteed membership into our friends/family guild.

Your personality, individual skill, and willingness to improve, must be a good match for our guild before you can join No Mercy.

It's almost like other factions haven't done the same thing.

DC didn't shift over to fairweather Chillrend once you guys took over?

I have no idea what AD is doing atm TBH. Without their stronger organized guilds they are just as bad any any PUG Ep or PUG DC faction.

Hopefully the people who ranted regarding this can see the effects of the difference organized guilds make on a server.

It would be common knowledge if they actually PvP'd before this.

It is all cyclical. There are times of up and times of down. 3 faction just makes it a lot spicier.

We did not expect DC to shift over to Chillrend once we started winning so you have a point there. But what also occurred is the EP AUS crew now fights the AD Oceanic crew on Thornblade. This is absolutely fantastic and what I and many others wanted. What is unfortunate is the EP NA primetime crew, which was at first present on Chillrend, now also plays on Thornblade.

Phinix1

EP has big numbers right now (3 bars compared to AD 2 and DC 1), yet they are no where to be found.

It is like thousands of fake accounts were created just to take up queue space and prevent real players from actually getting in.
