NA PC BWB second attempt

kit_sune

Why the hell would you gate camp ffs. I actually want to have fun

W0lf_z13

as @Valen_Byte said.. its not green vs red... its bwb vs sypher and his army.... if it were that they were coming onto DC the same thing would be happening with AD and EP getting together... or if it were them going onto AD it would be DC and EP getting together

@Lumsdenml Awesome ... will def be an interesting and fun few hours thats for sure ... Sucks though that u will be out of town and missing out on it ... but at least ull be able to watch the feed

That is so exceptionally and repulsively melodramatic, please dear god stop... They are going to be in for a single day. I highly doubt when he came up with this that he said "Hmm I want to invade Blackwater Blade and ruin it for everyone." No matter what you think of him there is not some grand conspiracy to take over and poison the campaign and ruin it for everyone for the sake of AP. BwB is not a great AP farm in comparison to TF or Had. They're just having a dumb fun event and for whatever reason everyone here is taking it as the apocalypse. I won't run with them, I don't care about this event and I really don't understand why any of you do. Would it be fun to kill him and the lizard squad? Yea it would, but I'm not going to plot here on the forums about it. If anything the influx of fanboys will make the server a bit more balanced with EP having something resembling a proper pop.
Honestly if you guys want to push EP to the gates and try to hold them there thats your prerogative, but please stop being so dramatic about it . Its not the apocalypse, its not a conspiracy, its a one day event...

@skepticalfox This weekend will be interesting to say the least

Realistically, I don't think gatecamping is the right idea--keeping them off the ring? Sure.

And as someone else mentioned, I think people are greatly over-erestimating the effect this is going to have. I'm looking forward to it, could be fun, could be stupid, we'll see. EP's been doing great this campaign, if this gives them a little bump and maybe gets the faction rolling again, I see that as a positive thing.

Personally, I think it is best that they are going EP--imagine if AD picked up an extra raid on saturday, for instance. I'd be logged off. Honestly it would be pretty rough if DC picked up another raid.

And like Adenoma said, I don't think we'll find ourselves on blue side much, at least during the event. But from my point of view, it's less about pushing the argonian army back out of BwB (again, what if some of them decide to call it home? That would be cool), and more about staying on the side that has a herd of juicy players to kill.

Unless the filthy blues push roe. *shakes fist*

EDIT @W0lf_z13 @vamp_emily , IF this all actually goes down, we need a team picture in our respective dresses.

I mean, to be honest this might be a really great thing. Could bring some new players to BwB, particularly to EP who could still use some numbers right now.

On the other hand, it looks like it will be a sloppy crowd not taking things seriously that will kind of mess up the campaign for a day (though possibly leading to an unheard-of respite between roe and ash! gasp!). We'll see.

There is two reasons why I think Sypher is doing this.

1. Help population balance in the game. Not sure how the EP population is on Vet levels but we sure do need some more EP players on the Non-Vet level.

2. Level a Argonian to take advantage of its poison resistance.


I guess after the next patch the new flavor of the month will be DK Stam Argonians.

Nah, I'm just doing this for fun. We don't plan to Nightcap we don't plan to PvWall. We just want good spirited fights going back and forth with an army of lizards.

Also, DK argonians will NOT be FOTM. lmao, they just look cool so I went with that option.

@Gederic As Sypher said hes doing this for fun. not malicious in any way. I feel like everyone is over reacting a bit here.

Yeah, trying to figure out a way that gets me out of a wedding out of town and still have my wife speaking to me! Suggestions?
But it will be nice to see someone streaming the campaign that I home in & seeing people I know (and people I know who kill me a lot!).

W0lf_z13

i think its more on the lines of everyone is getting pumped for this just because its something new to hit BwB ... ( i know im looking forward to it just cause of the something new thing ) not to mention it would be a first ( that i know of ) that AD and DC for once could work together ( for a short amount of time ) instead of the usual fighting... not to mention... and no i am not one of the "fanboys" im looking forward to testing my "skills" against someone as well known as sypher ... it will show me what i need to work on imo

@Lumsdenml lol... unfortunately i dont... not without ur wife not talking to u ... or having u "put into the doghouse" lmao

Its going to be ok. We are just having some fun here. I think you are the one taking this too seriously. Dramatic? There is nothing wrong with adding a bit of flare to your commentary. lol Its all in good fun just relax.

i think there might be some misconception as to what the idea of saturday's event is by possible bad wording.... its not that we are going to be "gate farming" its more on the lines of pushing out and making them work for it and giving them one hell of a battle ... at least thats my take on everything

Pft.. don't make me drag you to the gate.

Maybe you missed the part where Sypher says he is "Forming an Army".

This isn't about campaign population imbalance, this isn't about EP stealing scrolls, and it’s not about @DeadlyRecluse calling us filthy blues ( by the way I really hate when he does that ).

This is about war. We are the ones who live in BwB. We laugh, cry and sweat blood in Blackwaters everyday and I'm not going to let an army of filthy and smelly argonians with the name “Sypher” walk in and invade it.

If Sypher wants a fight, lets give him one that he will never forget. Let us make 5-14-2016 a day everyone remembers, and make it part of Blackwaters history.

For the Queen!
For the Covenant!

Lets destroy his Army!

One of the most popular streamers in ESO is coming to BWB with an army of fans. What do you think they're going to do? Run around naked and throw dance parties? No! An army is used to conquer. We don't know yet how big this army will be. You think it will be just enough to balance EP. But it could also be a huge horde that will just roll over us (AD/DC). If that's the case, it's best for AD+DC to create some room by pushing EP to their gates and make it a fight when they arrive. Consider it a sign of respect to Sypher's popularity that were assuming it will be a horde.

Edit: Also, I haven't noticed EP struggling for pop these last few days. They've been doing well. They're 1st place actually, last I checked. AD got pushed to gates last two weeks for being in 1st place. Well now, it's EP's turn, but you're getting Sypher to help you.

Adenoma

Point of order, @Gederic - the only reason I'm in BwB is for the melodrama.

Filthy blue.....

Very very filthy indeed..
.
Alright then well if its a fight you want, we'll gladly oblige.. I have no love for lizard boy and his army of fanboys but if it means EP wins this campaign and crushes the 'green alliance' I won't be saddened by it. No crying on the forums though if the EP zerg rolls right over you, that would just be... hypocritical...

MoreDino

I'm expecting maybe a raid, if even that. Keep in mind that a lot of his audience is spread throughout PC and consoles, and NA/EU respectively. Sure, they'll have plenty of pugs (and stream snipers) following them around, especially if they're able to go around and create conflicts. Even more so if EP is backed into a corner and is basically forced to go all in on single objectives at a time.

All of this talk of ganging up on the lizard crew would lead to bad experiences for the EP side of things. A better way of going about it would be to continue business as usual. Show off the environment that BWB offers on a regular basis so maybe more people come back/stick around/check it out on their respective platform. Rather than forming an alliance between AD and DC, get your fellow guildies to show up and play the map. Knowing that EP will have a bump in their pop, however big or small, should be seen as a great chance to show off what your guild/faction can do without the aid of another.

If I'm wrong and it ends up being 2-3 raids worth, by all means, gather your faction and go ham.
