They went to Aion and apparently they're failing there. Hated by everyone, unable to take a fortress altho they're ranked number 1. They will fall there soon I can reckon ^^
Sigh. Why do I still get worked up when people talk out their ass. You'd think I could just accept when people are full of shit, laugh at them and go on my merry way. But nooooo! I always take the bait. Always feel the need to try and set the record straight. Talk about noob, I'm No. 1!
Avalon took the very first fort on the server and held it longer than any other fort has been held. When they took it, Avalon was ranked no. 2 in Elyos, and about no. 4 or 5 overall (the top ~3 ranked guilds at the time were Asmos). Avalon had the opportunity to take a second fort on the first night but allowed another Elyos guild to take it and just helped support them. In the game, there is an equalizer - an NPC group called Balaur that attack forts and at this point in the game, the Balaur are overpowered. Maybe when players start capping, it'll be a more equal fight but for now, if the Balaur attack with a dredgion, you basically lose your fort. Even when they don't hold a fort, Avalon works alongside other Elyos guilds defending their forts from Asmos and Balaur. It is a guild requirement that members participate in fort defense (whether the fort is owned by Avalon or another guild) as much as possible and several members have been kicked for not following this rule. Currently Avalon are no. 1 in Elyos and No. 2 overall.
Hated by everyone? Not even close. Hated by about as many people as you'd expect the no.1 ranked Elyos guild to be hated, regardless of who it is.
Unable to take a fort? You're an idiot.
Ranked no. 1? Only for the last few days and only in Elyos, not overall.
Fall there soon? About as likely as the rest of your post, I reckon.
And many of you know I've had my disagreements with Fly and NB and Asylum always seemed to be a haven for the most fervent anti-Avalon players in SRO, which never bothered me. But seriously, don't just pull shit out of your ass when talking about them or Avalon. Try and actually get the facts right. Thanks.
