Celtic Heroes

Why? It took lir like two years or so to down gelebron but arawn did it within months. One of the highest levels in the game is on android and android had more kills than some iOS servers so saying they're newer isn't that great of an excuse, especially looking at donn and fingal who have done gele for about a year+

Arawn took down gele first because of how well we all worked together... No special sauce here. When gele first came out the clan came together and worked together, set alarms so for the attempts we had everyone. Same way we got the first necro kill.

Having only one clan at EG helps, but that isn't the only reason, as there were multiple servers at the time with structures like this. Resurgence has always had a lets get it done attitude and it shows off during our EG kills.

Bob you can't speak for resurgence during this time because you were anti res. You know nothing of what their first kill was like because you were too busy hating on them (which I'm guilty of too in the past.)

You can't pretend to have firsthand knowledge when you weren't anywhere close to the action for necro OR gele.

Lmfaoooo

Not true actually, i quit Bada Bing around the time they killed gele and prior to that I had engaged in a long talk with Bigd and some other res. Really only hated res in 2013 and its just because I listened to certain old players that were a bit off their rocker.

And regardless if you love or hate a clan you can still see what they do well and what they don't, and Resurgence has always been good at getting stuff done and working together as a clan. Since joining the clan I have been able to see how BigD and others mobilize the clan. Resurgence got gele down first because we just are that efficient, it's not some giant secret.

And you had the numbers. Let's not forget that Resurgence was publishing on the forums every week how many EDL sets they're making and they had maybe 90+ EDL sets when Gele came out.
In comparison, Avalon killed first Gele with 34 toons (about 10 something days later). We are an efficient clan as well, we just don't have as many members as others do, and we only could try him during weekends.

I'm not trying to take away anything from Resurgence and Arawn. They were very motivated to get the 1st kill, but it's always going to be a big and well organized clan that can take down a new boss first, considering raid bosses when introduced typically take 40+ to take down. That's not an easy thing to do in an MMO with players in multiple time zones. Plus killing a boss with 40-60 players (other servers first kill had 50+), there is also that zerg factor that you can just outdps the rage, so had there been another server that could've brought 60-80 toons to Gelebron, they would probably have gotten first kill.

The people who plays there, timing of certain events like collapse or rise of a certain clan, influx of certain classes onto clan etc. Handful of ambitious, smart, morally good people coming together with a common vision of making their clan great, with fair methods of loot distribution, stepping in when drama outbreaks personally, and having social aspect intact so a clan doesn't feel like a dead end job so everyone in it feels part of the whole journey usually is the start. These people are usually adept in their own classes but not always, so mentors others along as well.

Add a similar bunch of people who wants to oppose these with a conviction and you'll get a world with potential griefing, trash talking, stressed environments etc wherein the world suffers in terms of overall progress

I strongly believe in people being the major factor. If u take any servers history , there's always 5-7 influential people who shaped the server, for better or worse and made the key decisions if that world. Everything else just happens, and everyone else just follows it.

This is what all clans should be.

*sigh* this is what more often happens to the server...

I slightly disagree; there's the handful of individuals who shape the server, then there's the 15-50 people with which they first interact, then there is everyone else. At all 3 tiers of people there is choice to be a positive or a negative. There can be great leadership that fizzles if there is not a clan base to build upon. Thus, no matter how influential or low-key someone is, they have an effect upon their clan and to some extent the whole server.
