Guild Wars 2

Another week, another set of random names, except this time, I made the thread first!
Fort Knox: I’ve never fought you before and I am thoroughly looking forward to fighting you
Abaddons Mouthwash: I’m too happy right now to call you blobaddons, I’m finally rid of the gankers who call themselves Desolation!

SUP! I like the last pics you posted about your matchup and deso:P. And we can finally play against you guys again ^.^. And while I remember the nice stuff some TUP members said about our blobs i gotta say they are not what they used to be imho:D But we will see how you like them.

So GL and HF

Your blobs are bigger? Dunno, couldnt spot a difference. Maybe because my game lagged all the way trough most of the fights.

Slomo.1029:

The blobs now build superior balistas in open fiel fights to kill the enemys. They lost 5 ppl on the balistas, 2 ppl on trebs in the tower and another 3+ on the acs.

Seems Same Abanddon as always, Big mono Group, so what changed Nauda?

well done to that ADAC warrior with the citadel of flame armor, that duel was EPIC! I really hope we can duel again, I haven’t had a duel that good for a long while

Nauda.3678:

Nothing new with Blobbadon, building 4 superior AC’s, 1 superior ballista inside a tower they just capped, with a 4min buffed lord, against 26 AG’s..
GG!!
Was fun to see your zoneblob portal bomb out of the tower and got completely owned by 21 of us, funnies moment of reset!

hey hey, let’s not be harsh to Nauda, he’s only kidding, anyway, AM have actually been quite fun to fight so far, so let’s all play nice
I’ve had more fun in this one reset than I did the entire week we had Tankolation

Yeah my comment wasn’t 100% serious… Guess I should make it more obvious next time^^. I still say that our big zergs lost quite a bit of power(more upleveld people running with them etc.).

Oh and although my first comment wasn’t 100% serious: ONE TUP actually said good things about our blobs;)

Dranul.2094:

While the abbadon community 100 is by far and away the toughest 100 blob ingame, its unfortunate they don’t run it on all maps during primetime, its like a 25% chance of having a challenging fun night with them. Sure Viz have the zone blobs too, and some massive guilds, the benefit of Viz is they have good numbers on all 4 maps at the sametime – so you know there is action to be had, if you can work your angles right.

Just came over here for 2 things. Fort and Abba. The EB server will not crash if you attack each other. Im not sure what you are scared of but you can honestly try to take a swing at each other. Not sure why you are ganking up on us ? Its not fun being double teamed for 5 hours str8. I get 2 teams working together for a bit to hit the team with the most points but we are even ticking the lowest haha.

Nr 2 .. thanx for the figts so far. HAd some crazy good fights all over EB. You know mostly in our corner but hopefully that could change over the next couple of days

I would say the blob was as tough as ever but maybe this was only during the reset…

Got involved in a lot of good fights with my disgusting condi necro, who was literally hunted down by the enemy zerg for being such a disgrace to the game, so can’t complain.

A few times the numbers were just overwhelming but mostly it was manageable.

AG <3
finally against one of our favorite enemy’s again (guilds perspective)
looking forward to some challenging fights

also ADAC is looking for an GvG 15vs15/20vs20 at Thursday
call me maybe
or whisper :P

I am tired of people moaning about the way AM plays, It is very unfair saying that they are just a mindless group that has no skill and their players cant play the game and can only survive if they are in, what some people unfairly say, is a ‘blob’ . People should realise and appreciate how much discipline it takes to run around for many hours never having to think about how to play or venture into the realm of getting skilful at the game, so please give them a break. Rather than rant and rave about their numbers reflect on how much you would hate to have to adopt that type of play and be thankful that you are not forced to adopt it.

It is not true that when they face the same numbers in a fight they just melt and are commonly referred to as ‘walking loot bags’ so please don’t disparage their play style, it does take a lot of skill to stay in the centre of a massive group and to not expose yourself situation where you may need to use keys that are unfamiliar to you.

AM have definitely progressed in their tactics…before it was just 100 man gps running around, not stopping for anything…but they are far more advanced than that….they now drop siege for open field fights even though they outnumber the attackers by at least 3 or 4 to 1 and defend sup camps with ballista / acs …so please don’t say nothing has changed, give them a break.

To help them keep progressing at the rapid rate they have already have shown in the past year (see above) and maybe improve their enjoyment of the game, here are some other hints from the acclaimed tome ‘How to WVW for Dummies, Volume 1’

1. If you face 30 people…there is no need to port away…you may just beat a gp by outnumbering them 3 to 1, it does not always need to be 10 to 1 for you to win
2. If your commander runs away you don’t always have to run with them. If you stay you may discover that you have other keys you can use to fight (see above about your hopeful wvw progression over the next year)
3. If your game suddenly speeds up and you find that when you click your number 1 button it works when immediately, ‘the game is not broken’, that’s the speed it is meant to run at so please don’t raise a bug ticket, you are just experiencing what we experience when we are not playing against you.
4. If you find that a keep is defended by 5 players and 1 AC that does not mean you cannot take it, so don’t always leave and try to find one that is undefended.
5. There are more movements available to you than Forward and Back, check you key mappings and ensure you know where Left and Right are. Once you are comfortable with that, and it may take a while, there is a ‘skill’ called Dodge, it helps you avoid damage.
6. There are skills other than the Number 1 key (try this…..1..then 2 and back to 1 to start with, I don’t want to overcomplicate your play style), you may see your character do a different kind of animation. Don’t be scared of trying this, once you have mastered the 1 and 2 keys, you can then try a different rotation, 2 then 1 then 2, or 1 1 2, or 2 1 1…..there are many ways to combine these keys so don’t be afraid to experiment. I admit this does take some advanced motor skills, using more than 1 finger to play, but it could double the amount of skill you develop, so if at first you keep pressing 1 when you brain is trying to tell you to press 2, it is called ‘muscle learned behaviour’, it will take time to master the 1 and 2 keys but preserve and don’t give up, you have spent a whole year training your muscles to only press the 1 key so don’t expect doubling your hand / eye coordination to come easily or naturally.
7. If you cant manage to take a tower or keep within 30 secs, it does not mean that your opponents are cheating, check things like ‘reinforced doors’ (these are harder to break through) and if the Lord has Defiance (this works the want it is meant to, no matter how many people you have hitting the Lord you cannot kill it) wait until the buff goes and do not get frustrated that you may have to stay in the same place to gain xp.
8. Every so often check that your ‘auto run’ key is not stuck, this may explain why you
sometimes run of cliffs or away from a battle.

If you require any additional tips on how to play the game please see https://www.guildwars2.com/en/manual/ , this explains some other areas of the game you may want to explore to increase your enjoyment.

^^ nice troll attempt, for a moment I though you were actually defending us, shame on me.

Seeing AG people getting mad because we put up ACs on newly capped wooden towers and kill their group is incredibly satisfying.
Thing is, we have fun in killing people. If Anet gave us a nuclear bomb to clear the whole map of enemies in one shot, we would use it. Screw “balance” and “fair fights”, we just want the enemy to die and our people to live.
If you are so obsessed about not using siege, don’t use it. But hate the game if WE use it, don’t hate us, because it’s working as intended.

That’s the thing, you guys mostly fail to kill people when the odds are 3 or 4 to 1, you need the 5 or more to 1 to win almost any fights If you follow the instructions as my friendly friend from the VcY corporation here said, you might have the chance and develope the skills one time in the next five years to actually manage to kill your enemies in a 2 to 1 ratio instead!
I wish you all the best luck with practicing your use of the dodge button and the number two button, dont overstress yourself!

We use #2 and #3 buttons when we use Arrow Carts, I guarantee you that’s everything we need to make you mad and to collect bags and to increase our kills and to farm ranks.

omg thank you soooo much for this guide
especially the scary part with the additional keys to press
I tried it and it’s so much fun
it’s like a different game now

and it’s a great honor for all of us that many experienced players like you
want to help us
to play just the way they do
we’re overwhelmed
thx a lot <3

Maybe you dont need that guide but 99% from your server need it.

I’m sorry vicar but I have to tell you that only our inexperienced players use the “1” key.

This is a setup that a REAL AM players uses:
ACTIVATE: Right-click to Attack
DEACTIVATE: Stop Autoattacking on Target Change
ACTIVATE: Autotargeting
ACTIVATE: Promote Skill Target

This way just can play the whole game with mouse only. It’s SO GOOD to only have to use one hand. You can eat something, switch the TV-channel(we all watch TV while running in zerg you know), drink something, and whatever else you can imagine. So we just run to the combat zone with our mouse and just click on our targets with the right mouse button! Since we’re clickers anyway why should we press the “1” key?

Not only 99%! 99,9%, because we are all remote contolled by the commanders.
Borg style you know.

It’s tempting but I’m going to avoid flaming AM as much as I can, I’m just too happy be rid of Tankolation

We are not going to change the way Abaddon’s Mouth plays the game by complaining about it, it hasn’t worked for the past 6 months so probably won’t work now. I’m not going to say that people should stop complaining because the responses on both sides are actually pretty funny.

Personally I think there’s some nice organization and coordination shown by AM at times, sometimes not, but at the end of the day atleast there is something to fight, as long as we manage to get through the upgrades that is.

Ahah, FSP you surely make me laugh. Keep dreaming of your perfect world made by proud guilds and skillful players.
The only thing I care is killing stuff, and as long as you provide me with something to kill I’ll be happy.

You will kill more in a guild since you will have more to fight against.

…but not enough numbers to do so, unless my guild blobs up with other guilds and… oh look, a blob!

AM is definitely a server worthy of being in Silver League. We blob up, but we just do this. We lack the organization of servers like Vizunah or SFR, so while still having good coverage and numbers, we are in Silver League. Our players might not be the best, but they are proud of being able to “carry” us to victory, even if such victory comes from greater numbers alone. The dedication of a typical AM player is no different from the one of another server in Silver Tier. They still try to do the best they can. And coming here and reading all your posts in the public Forums is just disgusting.

Pretty sure, that Am can handle few trolls attempt and laught together.
At aleast it’s a solid server, he doesn’t say, it will not blob, they say the exact opposite.
They do their events, and have fun like that, the problem it’s game, that fails at matching Group of the same size and have coverage and snowbolling in the mechanics, it’s really true hate the game and hate Anet and in 1 year didn’t figure out resolve the blob problem and how to have everybody in every situation having fun instead of one side haveing fun because they have the biggest blob ever and the other side simple can’t do anything, because of numbers most of time.

Am just use this to the max, and yes it’s fell really really Cheap, but i think they know it already, they don’t care but they can’t do without so they keep doing in it.

Nobody’s really laying into you guys out of hatred, it’s more of a tradition by now. Trust me, there’s a lot of grudging respect for Abaddon’s Mouth on Aurora Glade.

The whole challenge of being in a guild is to be able to take a massive amount of less organized players with the 20-30 players that you have to work with. Unlike against most server blobs, where a situation of our guilds wiping their zerg is quite commonplace, atleast the Abaddon zerg wins its share of the fights when they show up with overwhelming numbers and decent organization.

Nobody responded to my counter-trolling
sad panda

I don’t mind that AM builds a hell of a lot of siege. It’s part of the game and part of their play style. Each server has their own play style. AG likes guilds to fight in open field, AM likes siege warfare and Desolation goes for the PPT game. It’s all play styles of servers.

What is a little laughable though is a late last night on AM BL we were running around having fun capping stuff, AM instead of trying to defend against our attacks just allowed us to capture and simply followed behind to recapture – even when we were attacking upgraded objectives. They would rather PvD than come and defend/fight.

Once we realised this we turned around and went on the hunt, fought a couple times which was interesting. The next time we were even spotted by a enemy scout from AM, their entire map group of 30-40 would all way point back to base rather than fight. Truly inspirational.

We had to get inside your garrison before you would come to us. Then it was clearly the whole of AM online at the time had been called back to defend, must of been double the AM on the map now all crammed into Garrison – very nice fight in garrison.

Before the night was over we switched to EB and headed towards SM to see what was up, reinforced gates already and siege to compliment that. It took a while and the trebs behind each inner gate slowed us down but even auto attack does damage to gates, we went for the long fight and just DPS’d the gate down from 100%. Broke the inner, cleared all the well placed siege and went for the cap. A gruelling battle of perseverance from our part and a good defence from AM, it took around 3 tries to cap SM – each time we were repelled the siege was rebuild immediately. In the end, AM didn’t have the numbers online that they had earlier, still more than ourselves but not the usual red fog that surrounds and chokes you.

Not seen much of FR but looking to see what they bring, I don’t know much about the server.

Any time there is a fight and the enemy has AC cover fire, it’s just hard mode and more of a challenge – let the battle begin!

IF only ratnik can make the brave move and push through the dredge tunnel . Its like the explorers of the old days.. Thought as soon as they hit the end of dredge tunnel they will fall off the map. But they dont know .. Its Green on the other side of the tunnel.

The fights have been good for me if I had to complain about anything its that 9/10 times ranik and AM sow up at our durious and QL towers at EXACTELY the same time. YOu cant have scripted it better

The pug groups have melted the last couple of hours on EB. But the ADAC group are persistent mother FS and even though the whole " AM runs when they dont outman you 3 to 1 " rumor was going around tese okes stayed and fight and made us work our kitten off for every single kill. We had invi last week on EB . HOpe its adac bringing the fights this time.

We lived too long on green side let us time to discover red side .

pssst, guys, I found out how to stop FR attacking us, welcome to my cunning disguise.

Cheers Abbadon and fort ranik for the fights on EB, for the past 7 hours of commanding I did nothing but run the AG zerg on a tour of EB lol, loads of fighting which made it a great night for me thanks.

Haven’t seen as many CARE-bears as usual with Blobbadon, although they were quick out the gate on changeover. Is it just me or is there now two Blobbadon blobs on any map? That is actually moving towards good tactics, except that they seem softer than usual in an open fight. More PvEs in their blobs than last time we met?

As for FR, well I have yet to see anything useful from their side. Even their roamers run away rather than fight, and only come back when outnumbering you at least 5:1. My wife and I were capping their eastern BL camps, sentries and slaughtering their cows with little to no interference almost all day yesterday. There was one hammer warrior north of north camp though. Well done sir! I saw you coming (just got back from afk) and that still didn’t help. You pwned my Ranger quite handily. As for that poor FR General (warrior in gladiator gear) that kept on coming back for more lickings: don’t you understand when we emote /no? We’re saying it to save you from yourself.

good luck

have fun

ballin

Nice fighting at AM bl bay :]

The players from Abbadons Mouth see me, the allmight Valevor, as a really big threath. Seeing how an entire blob chased me across the map …and even far in to the water.

Very persistent i must say

Thanks to ADAC for some interesting fights in AG borderland today.
Gotta say u guys in a choke is a deathtrap, but I guess that comes with the 40-60man warrior/guardian train ^^
The fights we had with you in open field was really fun, long and interesting! Hope for more like that!
Sorry if we WP’d a time or two, but was the only guild group on AG borderland, and very low on pug commanders so had to run from tower to tower to keep to defend all the time.

Also thanks to the other guys we fought, sorry but dont remember any other guilds tags RDT or RCT or something from FR. And some other smaller guilds. We were pretty heavy on numbers today, never had so many people online or in a raid in many many months!

TY Fr group on Fr borderland for the fights, dova and the other pug group

[SC] wants to say thanks to [HoB] and [VII] for the epic fights today on Ranik Border. We might put up a video in a few hours of them, and will then post it here. It looks like it’s going to be an awesome week.

Thanks for the good fights to Abaddon’s and Fort Ranik night crews. Our players decided we were no longer going to allow the night capping and offered some resistance this time… Made for many good fights.

I think was more interesting than the usual PvDoor going on at those hours.

Those were some nice fights.

Here are some of the Fights we had yesterday on Ranik-Boarder, hope you enjoy

My condolences to the [NEWS] warband for the death of that Charr thief in EB last night. I don’t take lightly to people killing yaks I’m escorting. Even less when they’re trying hard to be a CARE-bear and not quite getting there. I consider one dead yak fair trade for one dead thief. Actually, I lie: I consider one dead thief almost a fair trade for one dead yak.

As for Fort Rat-nick. When next you rats see a bright yellow chicken flying from Umber, stay away. Sending 2, 3, 5 and even 10-man squads to take it is a very bad idea—as you found out. It took your small 30-man zerg to finally flip the bird. Insulting.

I’m here bringing propaganda for Flare!!
I can really recommend you to watch the fight at 1:30 were 19 Flares fight of the AM zone that tried to portal bomb us!
Another special highlight is at 6:00 and last for around the next 4 min! There is an awesome fight there with ADAC on the stoneplateau, intense to fight against such a big guild group with good coordination!

Here is the link!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBId7VeIdrQ
Now enjoy the fights!

Those portal bomb!

Fun fights in FR BL atm. Got dc’d in that garri fight.
Alot more fun than last weeks match up, Least we get fights in prime time.

Time to wait in a Q. Yay.

Thanks for the fun on AM border. Sadly AM just drove a boring Karma train with primary target being capping the keeps back for the point tick, but the few fight we had with the train were fun.
Also thanks to all the guilds from FR. Please stay as seperate as you are. <3

Hey man if that’s what you have to get kills then I guess you don’t have a choice.

Seeing group of 40 run from a group of 20 is also pretty satisfying. I guess a true veteran knows their limits.

FR <3 – you guys are good fun.

The fights against [ADAC] reminds me of the fights against [BLOB] from millers. Long fights with full concentration. I love it.
