Maybe my guildies will be able to persuade me to become a permanent Leivirk-attachment but TBH I don't see BGs as more than temporary amusement. I also don't want to end up with 8 more L50's, all of which would be RR1-3. Maybe the new patch will sort me out but that's a long way off for us.
I assume by your wanting to make the move from RR3 into semi competitive RvR you are meaning grouping with people, probably initially at least in pick up group rather than fixed group.
If you are out in RvR playing two accounts then those two characters are presumably grouped. That is likely to reduce random group invites at a keep defence or something, because people targeting you to invite or seeing you in a battlegroup will see you are already grouped.
I don't quite understand the problem of not getting the chance to explain to a group that you are playing two accounts and asking which one they want you to keep playing in group. Surely you need to disband your characters before you can get a group invite, and that means you will be talking to people before you get the invite. You can explain before accepting with the character you intend to play in the group. If you only accept the invite on one character then there should be no problem. You do really need to only join a group with one character. Life is hard for a pick up group at the best of times, so people playing two characters or being afk for a long period means the group has little chance in a fight.
I think you would get more group invites if you turn up in battlegroups or at defences ungrouped. People grouped with their bots often don't want group invites, and are less likely to get them. I know that means a lot of waiting around, asking for groups, or being solo until people get to know you and more likely to invite you, but everyone suffers the pain of going through this stage.
I would have thought either an animist or a warden are useful in groups, though in different situations, but it probably helps if you pick one of them to concentrate on.
Sorry if any of this comes across wrong. Just trying to be helpful since you sound pretty stuck.
), but after RR3 they get VERY boring. Sometimes there's some tower action then & people ask me to help, but nowadays I even try to avoid that as some people get very uptight when they realise they've just invited someone playing two accounts & before I can say "I don't mind parking one of the toons, which one would you prefer me to play?" they've flipped their lid & it's all over before it's started.
