Boards Rift Guild

    Hi all,

    A few people have suggested that they would like to start a boards.ie Rift Guild. A few friends and I will be making a Guardian Rift Guild from early access. We have quite the extensive experience with the game from leveling all the way to 50 and Tier 1 Expert dungeons.

    We are, what I like to affectionately call, hardcore casual players. This means that we will play extensively pretty much every day until we reach level 50 and then begin Tier 1 Dungeons. At that point we will probably slack off a bit and play every day, enough to complete raiding content and probably play some other games on the side.

    If we get enough people then we will gradually evolve into hardcore raiders with a solid core of players, but if we fail to gather enough players or to join a more successful guild then we will probably quit and go to play another game in a couple of months after reach level cap.

    We have extensive experience with several games including raiding end-game WoW content at the forefront of every expansion. At present there are about 8-10 of us but we would be delighted to have more boardsies join us. If you are interested, please reply here with your intended main character. Hardcore raiders and casuals are welcome. at the very least you'll have a friendly, banter-filled leveling experience with some very knowledgeable players. At worst, you can leave the guild at level cap and join a more professional and mature guild with the experience and skills you've developed.

    We have our own ventrilo server too.
    The server/faction selection are non-negotiable and have been made on the basis of our knowledge of the player base and the game mechanics.

    Server Name: To Be Decided
    Faction: Guardian
    (Defiant will be horribly overcrowded and playing Guardian will result in <1 minute PvP queue times while playing Defiant will likely mean struggling to get into a Warfront in less than 30 minutes).
    Server Type: PvP.

    If the majority of boardsies are interested in joining our proposed guild, then we can use this thread for discussions regarding the boards guild. If not, then I will edit my post and/or create a new thread for discussion of a seperate guild to be the Official Boards.ie Rift Guild.

    Any questions, please ask!

    Nicky over 5 letters are very tiring and in any case will be reduced to the initial syllable, so think twice before they are called Pocahontas.
    For some reason this cracked me up :D:confused:


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 14,723 Mod ✭✭✭✭Dcully


    The ruskies have a sence of humour it seems :P
    Some polls on the official whitefall forum suggest Guardians will have 65-70% of the population, there goes the short warfront queue times for Guardians.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 34 Lorenzomedici


    Its quite bizarre really, the russian community is going cloudborne but only RUScorp(who are D-bags) are going Whitefall.

    However it does look like the Guardian faction will be greater in numbers if only going by forums but we all know forums are a small percentage of the playerbase and most players will instantly gravitate to Defiant imo.

    I'm staying Whitefall and staying Guardian.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,249 ✭✭✭Stev_o


    Well that makes things difficult doesn't it. Why can't their be a Russian server and make all us English speaking people happy.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 4,569 Mod ✭✭✭✭Ivan


    Cloudborne is apparently the EU PvP server.
    Whitefall is the EN PvP server.

    They'll probably add some more in a bit, but at this point it's too close to change. We're gathered on vent patiently awaiting the opening of the server. PM me for details or come join us. :)

    Yes Cloudborne got 10k queues and Whitefall had 3-5k queues, Bloodiron is solid so far and guild has amassed a considerable number.
