Who Am I?

Long time Guild Wars player, former Diablo II player, currently Guild Wars 2 addict. Basiner.

Guild Wars 2 has been a natural fit for me, moving right in from the original. In the switch to the new game, I was also asked to step into the Basin roles of Game Council member and PvP Coordinator. This means I head up the Basin's WvW Commanders -- I help enable them to lead the Basin into battle, though I find myself doing little leading currently. I'll also help round up a structured PvP group or two at some point, though we, as a guild, haven't done much in that venue yet.

This comes after a long spell as de facto GvG organizer for GW1, where I led approximately 8 distinct groups of players in tournaments, ladder play, and weekly team groups. The 8v8 format seemed to fit me well -- it was big enough to allow tactics and organization to carry the day, while small enough to not eliminate the need for individual skill. In GW2, I find sPvP to be too duel-oriented and WvW to be too zerg oriented. That said, I enjoy both PvP venues, and also like running organized PvE, especially in hard dungeons and bigger Guild Missions and meta-events.

Want to be my friend?

  • On Guild Wars 2, my main character is Roux.
  • On Guild Wars, my main character is Morello Le Rouge.
  • On Diablo II, my main account is *CoonerTheRed2.
