    That's absurd!

    The thing that disappoints me in BwB is that very few people will convert to an emp build. Everyone just keeps their single target builds going and doesn't think bigger ;)

    No one will ever believe it but vet is full of more sheep than blackwater blade is. The unaccountable silly playstyle of everyone in veteran campaigns is much more noticeable than blackwater blade. At least I die all the time in here. :v

    And since I know people like to assume BWBers just play there to "farm" new players or whatever, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that more new players probably wait until they hit level 50 to enter PVP than jumping into BWB before level 50. Based on my limited experience in Vet campaigns, there are a lot of people there that clearly have no idea what they're doing.

    I think bwb is a proud place to be especially since there is a little of players like us that have the ability to teach new players early how to properly pvp.

    Lesson #1: don't take someone else's siege
    Lesson #2: if you do take their siege, hit the damn wall with it
    Lesson #3: don't activate the ****ing well until the whole group is there

    #5 bleakers is the key to DC map control. Hold it at all costs and ignore anyone telling you to defend Glade instead

    #6 Dragonclaw is an EP home keep

    #7 Alessia bridge is an AD home keep, reds and blues are owed 2 years of retroactive d-ticks

    #8 always front-door Roe. It's bound to work eventually.

    10) Counter Siege
    Always place your siege above the wall the enemy is sieging. If you do not have a siege just stand there till the wall falls.

    If you want a friend, get a dog.

    To be clear, I was being Sarcastic in my post to @Just_call_me_Cola.

    And yeah, I spent some time in vet yesterday (when I play vet I play Azura's Star), and the players there SUCK for the most part, and are very disorganized, and have no sense of priorities. When the solo players are having to take resources and flag keeps in order to make it seem like an attack is going on, and get all the pugs running there in order to get anything happening, there is a problem. Even the groups there are extremely disorganized, and half the faction will defend Aleswell when we don't have Alessia, and Sej is not owned by reds, there is also a problem. I would not even play in vet in the first place if I wasn't trying to get the last 50ish CP I need, and if I wouldn't be lv49 and 3/4 by the time I got my ideal sorc build. (and my current BWB toon needs to grind for gear, and I am not spending my winter break doing that)

    @ChapterMasterV :
    Use crafted sets, yo. Run 4x Eyes of Mara, 4x Magnus, 3x jewelry and run destro/resto with apprentice mundus and +max health, +max mag, +mag recov food. Skip hardened ward and get mines (don't worry about morphing) and streak. Dampen magicka and healing ward = no fear. The whole build is ready by level 24ish.

    Get your CP and enjoy a healthy PvP environment, because I solved your build and gear issues.

    You got Mines and Streak by level 24? It took me until at least level 30 just to get Hardened Ward. Teach me your secrets.

    Lol, @Adenoma, I use stam for BWB, 5xSpriggans, 5xHunding, 2xNight Mothers when on DW bar. Once I farm it every 6 lvs, wont need to again, that is why I put up with the grind. I like to run stam in BWB also, just to give a bit of diversity (I have also grown to love destroy ult too much)

    @ColoursYouHave , those come later. The build is 100% open world playable at 24.

    @ChapterMasterV , good luck having no sustain! If they're smart they'll just block for a while and CC you to death.

    @Stridig , I'll be joining you in making a pure healer. Guild of Night Blader's normal regular healers are all branching out a bit into other classes and I realized that we've felt a little fragile of late.

    I've got a super duper heal bot build lined up. Anyone got level 32-46 transmutation jewelry I can get my hands on? Preferably gold or purple.

    While I'm a doctor in a year I'm a bit hesitant to start healing and stop killing. Feels weird.

    As healer you are required to spam radiant destruction at all the low healthers from the back of the group. : /

    I've always thought you should be able to hit the door and take it down (faster than the wall), but be stuck with a tiny hole-of-death breach to try and take. Would make for more interesting dynamics in sieges.

    One day I was in AS and thought I was in BwB. I got in chat and said something like "LF small group". A small group picked me up and we met at Glade.

    I came out of Glades front door and the group was standing there and then all of a sudden they all started sneaking. I didn't know anyone in the group so I started sneaking too. I thought maybe they seen the enemy.

    I kid you not, we snuck from Glade all the way to Nik. It was one of the strangest things I did in PvP and I still have no clue what that group was thinking.

    So with all that being said.

    12 ) Sneak
    Do not walk, ride or jump around. Get down on your hands and knees and sneak from keep to keep

    So there is another thread about "what do you look like in real life". Well I must say.... we have a pretty good looking player base. Even got to put a face to some of the names in BwB. Good times!
