Yakisoba @ Facebook


Since the forums are hardly used and most people are on facebook, I think we should just skip this old medium of communication and just use facebook directly.
The guild’s facebook page is http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=145255221544
Request to join and you will be accepted. I will be actively updating both our guild site here, and our facebook page regarding our RIFT progress.
Cheers!

Defiant
Briarcliff PvP
Greetings, I am Tsubaki leader of Yakisoba, a SG-based guild that has been playing together since 2007.
We started out in Granando Espada, and have moved to various MMOs like Cabal Online (SEA), Atlantica Online (Global), Dragonica (SEA), Team Fortress 2, Warhammer Online and Aion Online. Most of our core members have been playing together online for many years now, and we are pretty much like a family already.
We have been drifting around for quite a bit (ever since AION), and we have finally decided to come settle in RIFT.
We used to be a very hardcore guild, but of late with work and university commitments, most of our members have taken a back seat or stopped gaming lately. In RIFT, we plan to be a laidback, relax guild but with competent and skillful members who play after work/school hours. We will do premade PVPs and also 10m rift raids. We’ll even do 20m rift raids if we have the means.
We are seeking members who are from SG/MY/AUS, young working adults, uni students who still have that gaming touch with them, but can no longer commit to being “hardcore” anymore. If you want to be part of a community that is closely knitted, that often meet up for meals and gathering, then perhaps Yakisoba might be the guild for you.
We will be rushing at headstart to get the guild up. So if you do see us around, please pm any of us for an invite.
Cheers!
Yakisoba @ RIFT


Jesus, this blog is so damn dusty.
Well hello people! Time for a major major update. It’s been a while since we carried the Yakisoba banner. After we quit Aion some of us went to play WoW, but instead we joined another guild.
But right now we have a new home to move into, and this time it is RIFT. It’s a crossbred between WOW and WAR, and thrown in rifts as an interesting dynamic gameplay. There’s also a very interesting soul system which you can mix up to 3 of 8 souls for your respective classes to form different builds. This game probably breaks the usual typeset: rouges have tanking souls, mages have healings souls, clerics have melee and range dps souls, etc etc. And they do their jobs pretty effectively.
Former Yakisoba members, if you are looking for a new game to play, you can join us in this. The core team will be playing (myself, testarossa, kongbakpao and niyol) and we hope to form a casual yet active afterwork guild that does PVP and Rift Raidings.
So do you homework, and quickly preorder now. The game starts 1st March, but headstart for preorders will start this Friday, 2am GMT +8 (SG/MY)
EDIT:
We will be rolling DEFIANT on Briarcliff PvP server.

Intense Abyss Raid!


Today we had one of our longest and largest raid in the abyss. A 24-men (and not forgetting our girls!) alliance that fought against the Elyos zerg near the Siel Western Fortress. We pushed them back all the way till their tower on the other island (Twilight Battlefield), and this went on back and forth.
Even though we were heavily outnumbered, we outmaneuver the enemy a few times and broke thru their ranks with very well coordinated attacks. To be honest, for such a big group we were very efficient, attacking as one and we held our ground well.
Our templars kept the heat on by pulling critical players on the other side to their death before our DPSers. Targets that were marked were quickly killed. Members that went down were quickly brought back into the fray.
After more than 2 hours of fighting, everyone got tired and it gradually died off. We then went on to control 3 artifacts before ending off with a group photo-
And these are the Yakisoba members that participated in today’s raid. We scored at least 400 kills today in just this raid. This also pushed our total AP and allowed us to return back to 5th place in the server.
Wished I have more time to report all the little events that our guild organizes… but grinding takes precendence!
Yakisoba: Level 3 Legion!


Yakisoba is now a level 3 legion! We can now apply our guild emblem, as well as recruit more members.
I haven been updating the guild blog, obviously because the game has started and everyone has begun the race to the top. Currently Yakisoba is ranked 5th in the server, and we will continue to press on to maintain our standing! Not bad for a guild that originally planned to be semi-hardcore only. Hahah. Guess we couldn’t resist the competition.
We will be opening up our recruitment to take more like minded players. Requirements are simple:
– Level 20 at least
– From Singapore/Malaysia/Australia
– Active, Fun, Mature
– Willing to contribute to the guild and our dedicated crafters
– Must use Ventrilo
Pm Asobi (myself), Testarossa or Shader in game for more information. Remember to register your application on our guild forum first. Thank you very much!

All members are expected to be on our ventrilo server, irregardless of whether you have a mic or not. As soon as the guild has been created, we will annouce it on Ventrilo and will start taking in members who are in the Ventrilo first. Then we will collect 100k and increase the legion to level 2 asap to take in the rest of the members.
The officers will only add those who have confirmed their info on our rollcall and be on ventrilo. If you have yet to do so, please do it asap! Thank you!
Yakispeak!


Announcing our newest member to the guild…
Shader and I have worked out a little something and we now have our very own 40 slot Ventrilo Server! The vent server is being hosted by Hypernia.com. Right now I’ll be footing the bill, but if you wish to help chip in a couple of bucks, do let me know. We will scale the number of slots based on the usage, so please make use of it!

All members are expected to be on the vent server when you are online, and we will shortly be enforcing this. For those who don’t have a mic, it’s high time you invest in one! Let’s make the vent server really happening!
