Who is the new 2nd strongest faction

So until recently it was considered common knowledge that leviathan was the second strongest faction.


But due to recent lack of TW attendance (I dont think they had more than 30 ppl at TW tonight) and with more and more members either leaving or "boycotting" TW it looks like they will no longer be a factor in TW.



So, with that being the case, who will rise up and take their place as the new #2 faction and the biggest threat to QQme?


Major contenders seem to be:

NPC: More than luck than anything else, neglected by any major factor and just sat on the map until now. Will they pose a threat? Will they get wiped off? More importantly, will they last for more than 10 minutes before their crystal goes down.

Varden: One of RT's oldest guilds, just recently freed from their land lock by QQme and have taken advantage of it to take poseidon off of the map and establish themselves in the south east of the map, with only one land left to take, will they go after QQme or just sit tight? We'll find out soon.

Leviathan: Perhaps leviathan is just a sleeping beast and is gonna make a comeback. Perhaps the members that have left will come back and the ones that are in will start attending TW.

Poseidon: Perhaps poohxbearx will cash shop full +12 gears for everyone?

    Despite me being in NPC, I agree we were a bit lucky that a bigger faction didn't squash us

    But despite that, we're defintly one of the better factions on the server. Not to mention we're VERY even with Varden in terms of strength.
    I was in all of our TW's against Varden, and like I said, our factions are very equal matches

    As for levi? Who knows...Although I do appreciate the boycott, because I also don't agree with TW changes

    I don't know why you always have a beef with NPC, they along with Varden are the strongest at this point (if we exclude Levi ofc). NPC has never been a "weak" faction. At least unless you consider Varden "weak" b:bye

    I personally am running 3 possible scenarios through my mind.

    1) QQme owns everyone, owns map (option- Once this occurs, everyone leaves, everyone starts over in new factions)
    2)new faction rises up, consisting of just a bunch of high levels
    3)Varden's turn, This is the one i would like to see the most, heck if i had the levels i would join them.

    I wana see Fuzzy and Varden win the entire east side of the map. Would need to break the lock by QQme first.

    Just think in almost a year, we have seen...

    -Imafmuu
    -QQme rolling Infamy
    -most start up factions die out
    -packs *cough cough*
    -and much more.... including countless QQs

    I picked a good server b:victory
    I quit. Nothing ever changes @ PWE or PW CN . Expansion was over hyped. Guild bases (that looked cool) can be destroyed, so why waste the time if your a in a small faction like me.

    Thanks Dorset. I quit. Nothing ever changes @ PWE or PW CN

    I agree with Russie that levi is probably the 4th strongest faction now. We can't really field enough people to deal with the numbers NPC and Varden can field. A few OPs can only do so much before you get overwhelmed by numbers. And some of us only like me and cexy only ever log on to help with TW b/c of RL so we've TW with the same gear we have been for several months now. Heck Nuff and Pimp are about the only leadership we have left pretty much. We only have 6 officers left, 1 leader, 1 director, 2 marshals (of which tiger hasn't been on for 3+ months), and 2 executors (of which one isn't that active anymore).

    Anyways of the 186 levi members that was there when I joined I think less the 30 of them are still here and most of that rarely log on except for TW anymoreb:cry So much have changed lol.

    I think faction rankings goes like this now.

    1. QQme
    2. Varden'
    3. NPC
    4. Levi
    5. War

    EDIT: For endurance Levi has done pretty well to survive this long for example

    1. Infamy ganks "levi is dead yo"
    2. QQme ganks a/f Infamy died "QQme will wipe out levi b/f summer ends"
    3. TW Patch Ragequits "Game is dead yo"
    4. Second QQme ganks a/f 90% of Levi core quit game "QQ" in levi followed by "lol Levi free land now, they totally dead" by other factions
    5. November Month of RQs and Purges "levi like dead yo"

    lol at ur post amrd. Liked the sincerity. And I have to say i agree 100%. Is sad to see what's going on with Levi now, but u guys survived a lot of stuff so who knows? I still have faith Levi is not dead.

    But in case Levi can't rise up, my bet is on Varden. Old faction, kinda stable, Fuzzy is also a charismatic leader like Man, which no doubt is a positive factor. The biggest problem would be the lack of high levels/good geared people compared to QQme. For that they would need maybe that Levi or Poseidon break apart and had some members joining them ( won't even consider NPC since a merge between those is almost impossible due their story ). But then, merges are never easy.. ex-officers turning into regular members, members having to follow new leadership style, etc etc etc. Not that easy to deal.

    All I know is that I'm curious about what's going to happen from now on. For a "dead" game, I think we still have many things going on here. b:victory

    Factions coming & going can sometimes be a good thing for the server's TW situation as it doesn't make OP ones and keeps the server more interesting .

    However with 1 faction being the exception to this & the place where most high lvls or ppl that were core members in other good factions go it slowly starts to become less & less interesting . As that faction get's more & more lands , the options for other decent factions become less & less till there won't be many at all .

    I'd wish we'd border Varden right now . Would definitely be an interesting TW but I don't see it happening .

    As I said , there are less & less options with each passing week .
    It's all about LoL,yo.

    Who cares about 2nd strongest? 2nd strongest doesn't mean a thing if they still get steam rolled by the strongest. In my opinion, 2nd strongest only comes into play when they could match the strongest faction.

    There is nothing about dissing in this sentence. I have my own opinion, I am not bored, and there is no need for me to be cool.

    You are a bored child Veritas, who drinks beer because you need to be cool, and you drink only Carlsberg because you don't have your own opinion, and therefore go with the crowd.

    Were you thinking of yourself when you wrote this one?

    Cuz this is coming from the person obsessed with kill count, who (used to, or still does) PK his own alts just for higher scores.

    Or lying that you're 60 years old or something, Kyleran posted a pic somewhere. That's what kids who think they look cooler if they're older do, usually.

    Humm... u know people talk mostly about u cause u are a annoying brat that pisses almost 99% of the server with ur lame actions right? Nothing really related to being a factor or not b:chuckle

    To be commented for that reasons I would prefer to have people not talking about me at all tyvm. Ur post just confirm that all u do is to get atention, so good job on that. Pro job b:victory
