It was stated in the anime and somewhere in LN Vol.1 that the GToN (Great Tomb of Nazarick) was once raided by a coalition of YGDRASSIL players numbering around 1500 and ending with GToN's win. I was wondering if it there is something like a detailed storytelling of it in the LN. And if there is, by what volume will I expect it.

The title mostly says it all, I've been really into overlord from the anime, ainz ooal gown always seemed like a strong guild from whats been descibed but what confuses me is how they arn't the best, momonaga, while not having a meta build, is a brilliant stratagist and leader, the have touch me who was a world champion, they had 11 world items which to my knowledge is the most of any guild and they somehow defended a 1500 player raid. With all that in mind it seems weird that they arn't top 3 at least.
For the other question I don't understand how, despite other guilds being more powerful, they have the most world items by a land slide. Are they acctually easy to get if you have the right methods or did they just get lucky?
First of all, not native english speaker. So I'm sorry for any spelling mistakes.
Now, for the real thing. I've been watching the anime for a long time, but just recently started to read the Light Novels. And some questions began to rise.
Ainz's guild was supposed to be one of the top guilds before they all quit, but now it's ranked bellow 40's or something. Not much info is given regarding the ranking system when the servers shut down. So it surely means that there are other high-end guilds, and therefore other high-end players.
I don't think players that get to this kind of tier wouldn't be online by the time the servers shut down, so it is almost certain there may be some other players, or even entire guilds, of such level in the game.
Also, something got my attention in a special way, the fact that if the guild weapon is destroyed, the guild ceases to exist. Although there is no clear way of telling that the guild is still an active "magic" thing, Nazarick itself and all the NPCS's from it, are directly linked to the guild. So destroying the staff would maybe kill all the npcs and Nazarick be destroyed?
If any of these questions were answered further in the Light Novel (I'm currently in volume 1) please, do not explicitly spoil it. At least make it seem like speculation.
Their guild was not "the best" just one of the best. Guild item the staff itself is like a world item, so I highly doubt it's fragile enough to get broken easily.
Nazarick is basically impenetrable. In the past, Nazarick literally fought off a 1500 man raid without using its players because of the setup of Nazarick itself. The people that were part of the 1500 raid were all level 100 (I remember reading this somewhere so if I'm wrong sorry).
Let there be no mistakes, Nazarick and its highest level members are the most powerful beings in this world, they were literally a guild built around using real life money and all their spare time to getting more powerful. In the LN it's basically been stated that the guild was the best, but declined due to its members being inactive.
This is mostly a hypothetical question since both anime’s have VRMMORPGS. (Also this is when all of them are still just players in a game, and NOT them transporting as their characters from yggdrasil)
Like, completely defeat every NPC, every Floor Guardian, all the Pleiades and, most of all, Ainz?
Does it ever state anywhere what the weaknesses for a lot of the characters are? I know Entoma was weak against that insecticide spell Evileye had, and I think Ainz has some sort of weak resistance to fire. I could be misremembering that second one, though.
How can you kill or at least beat the Floor Guardians in a fight and survive? Could any of the NPCs or residents of Nazarick be persuaded to switch sides?
What would any country have to do to take on Nazarick and win?
I sometimes hear people debating or asking questions about whether they think Nazarick would be destroyed, or if Nazarik would destroy all human nations at the end of the series, but most of them just end up being dependent on people's gut feelings, but I think I found concrete proof that both Nazarik and at least one human country(Most likely Baharuth empire) would end up surviving till the series ends At the end of the second drama CD, The Dark Hero's Story, Torkel Monologues and says
"After that incident, I have recounted this tale to my children countless times. Just like how my father told me about the exploit of Andre. What I saw was a battle worthy of being labeled legendary. Listen well, children that will inherit the name pyorukenheimu. What I saw was the devastating fight of the hero momon. That great man, held two swords in each of his hands, and charged the giant basilisk like the wind."
This probably implies that even after several decades (probably 5~6 considering how old he sounded),
1.) Momon's identity was kept safe because Nazarik was never fully exposed.
2.) Torkel fled before Ainz destroyed Re-Estiz, went to another country, (Most likely Baharuth), and was kept safe
Of course, there could be other possibilities like Torkel being delusional at the end, Torkel actually living alone, Nazarick being destroyed without anyone in the public knowing, etc, but I think it is a pretty good theory, what do you guys think?
