Owning Exiled Brethren

     So I have been playing on Set. A few Red Nails joined the guild called Prophets, and we started raiding with them (which means I raid 1 day out of the week). So in between that time it is mini games and maybe a pug six man group once in awhile. There was something really missing though. Honestly, sitting in khemi and pretending I can attack someone in the world just doesn't exist.


     We got so bored that we started playing War Z, for the open world pvp. It was there, but that game sucks. I went back to Conan again after a week, hoping that I would find some open world conflict.
     We started playing some alts on Tyranny Server again, where I originated. It has changed so much since I left. I looked to see who was the top guild on the server, and it was a guild called Exiled Brethren. I picked this guild to pvp against because I figured it had the skilled players on the server.
     The first battle was 3 Red Nails and 10 Exiled Brethren. They had no idea what was going on, so we focused targets while they came at us one by one, feeding us kills. They got very upset. The next encounter we had with them they brought a raid force, and we had 6 Nails. They gave us a beating as they teamed up with the Sentinals guild, which has one or two pvpers left in their guild. Yet even with the raid we were kiting and getting kills off the mob.
     Exiled started talking a lot of smack in global one night, and they left their guild city door open. There were a few of them hiding in there, so we went in and killed them. They called in more, we killed them again and again. They did not get 1 kill off us five. Here are the videos of the encounter.





     A few days later we learn that they port from 6 man to 6 man in fear of us engaging in pvp with them. A few of their players also transferred their characters to the Set server, so they can pve unmolested.
     WHAT?
     This is sad to me. There are an average of 3 Red Nails on at a time at this point, and at a peak time we are on Tyranny there might be 6 of us. We have recruited two people from the Tyranny server itself, otherwise its players getting on alt toons. 
     I think our work with Exiled is completed though. They don't want to engage in pvp with anyone. Not only that, they will only do mini games in-guild, letting one side win, then the other side win, essentially pve farming campaign badges. 
     Is there anyway for other players to return to an open world setting on alts for pvp? Or does the pve sustain everyone in the US servers?
