Participating during a Guild Siege (GS) in the game Era of Legends (EoL).

Apparently Ascension is not as active as I was lead to believe as the defensive part of GS was non-existent.  However, the offensive part was far more exciting.

We managed to coordinate with Insidious, who likely coordinated with Beast, to attack the top territory controlled by Crusaders. It was a good try for the first attempt to put up a united front against the so called pay to win (P2W) guild.  

Things were going smoothly in the beginning. We got through both gates, took down all the cannons on the wall and proceeded to work on the 3 totems.  Though it was explained to me that the battle ends once all 3 are down, it was never explained on who actually gets the territory when that happens. Or does nobody get the territory and the next GS we all fight for it?  We managed to get 2/3 totems down.

And that’s when everything seemed to fall apart.

Once a totem falls, the defenders don’t have to split their force between 3 totems. Once the 2nd totem falls, the defenders can stack up on the remaining totem for an all-out defensive effort.  That’s what Crusaders did and stonewalled THREE guilds from knocking out the remaining tower.  It seemed to me that’s where the coordination ended.  We got little to no help from Insidious and Beast to push Crusaders back and help us take the last totem down. 

It doesn’t help that there is no way to “ally” one guild to another to prevent them from attacking you like in Lineage 2: Revolution. Everybody is a red name to everyone else (except your own guild mates) Red name means you can attack them which you don’t want to do because you’re supposed to be working with them.  Something 101exp needs to fix for sure.

Bottom line, this would have been a rout if all three guilds had brought more people into the fight. I’m in a guild of 167 personnel, only 32 showed up.  Something needs to be done about that, I cannot think of too many games where attendance, or lack thereof, isn’t addressed ASAP. 32/167.  Think on that Phoenix.
