Well, this is what I do at my invasions.

I always do it on quiet servers. For this reason, it is of the utmost importance to have the right people at each barricade. I always try to balance the levels at each barricade. Never have a setup where you have 3 level 50s at one barricade and 3 level 10s at another. Now, having a balance of weapons is key. You should always try to have a staff user, to blast away PKRs with flaming skulls. My ideal weapon belt is my Divine Cutlass (that cleanse ability is really handy with jolly roger), my Corsair's Bayonet (great for getting rid of the keg runners), a staff (comes in handy, no explanation needed), and my Bloodfire Broadsword (very good for fighting off waves of enemies, and the attack just keeps going up and up.) If you are on Padres, have someone with a bayonet or musket on top of the bridge at the magma ridge barricade, to pick off the enemies. When Wave 7 strikes, keep fighting (and watch out for the Captains and Stumps, they are nasty). Once enemies stop spawning, DONT JUST STAND THERE! Go assist the other barricade(s). Make sure to check the minimap every few seconds and keep an eye out for Jolly Roger, as he appears on the map a few seconds before it says he spawned, so you can get a head start. As soon as he comes, finish off any enemies left at the barricade you are defending, and go attack him. Weapons with a cleanse skill are handy for when he does grave bind, or you can just have a ranged weapon ready. Once he is dead, gratz! Or if you failed, better luck next time.

Anyway, hope that is helpful.
