That’s just your opinion. I have far less experience with PvE than I do with PvP so i often find myself clueless in dungeons and fractals.
LoS npcs into clump, spam high dps, dodge telegraphed instagib skills, stagger interrupt skills if necessary. There, you can do most PvE now. In the advanced class we’ll cover topics such as conjure weapons, skipping trash, and dodging into corners at point blank.
PvP: Focus squishy and/or easily disabled targets first, res teammates when downed, stomp enemies when downed, learn to read buff bar.
EDIT: Sounds simple and yet downed state management is one of the most crucial differences between what I consider to be good players/teams and bad players/teams.

Pretty much sums it. You can pull any format down to the base to make it sound braindead easy. It’s what happens when you start looking at what makes good and bad.
t1 is bizarro world where points still matter, roamers hang out by sieged up towers because red names are scary, and rams are forsaken and replaced with blobs of autoattackers.
With their performance this week Mag just might end up taking the PvF league!

BG has been in the same place as SoR with the random dissapearance of people but Mag srsly? You just make it into t1 and the only thing on your map i’ve died to today is wolves and that’s because they’re Op as kitten
Is that also why you instantly release? I keep trying to get my flute out but you all seem in such a rush to give me those bags back and respawn before I can get through the first bar of Taps.
As for numbers, I’ll leave this pic here from an hour ago when we had about 10.
Sorry I didn’t know you were going to play me some music. Maybe you should be like oPP and start doing that while they are in downed state. There’s really no reason to wait around otherwise. I’m the warrior btw, the one your 10-15 man group has only killed about 3 times. I enjoy making glass cannons look silly though. The only people I used to 2 shot were uplevels… seems I need to add maguuma to that list.
Takes Stonemist
“OK guys I really want to be able to push on SoR later tonight”
“Build these ACs. Build this treb too. You can treb Klovan from here right?” Zerg builds 3 ACs 1 treb in Stonemist 15 minutes later …
Scout calls 20 SoR SM inner west gate, rams down
Commander decides not to defend SM
What! You built siege in SM and then decide not to defend it??
“I … changed my mind”
“Feel free to tag up if you don’t like it”
I don’t have an issue with mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes. Earlier for example I did a bad portal into inner SM, getting everyone killed and delaying us taking SM by a long while. But I do take issue with making mistakes and pretending it wasn’t a mistake. Some people spent a lot of time running supply to SM, building more ACs, as well as scouting, under the illusion that we were going to defend SM. If the idea was to not defend SM in the first place, make it clear from the beginning and we could’ve saved time, blueprints and supply. We could’ve done some roaming, flipped some camps, or joined the main zerg.
Shame on the people who defended the commander too. Yes, she’s from one of BG’s most prominent WvW guilds and yes, blood is thicker than water, but mistakes are still mistakes and should be recognized as such. It’s only when mistakes are recognized that they can be fixed and not repeated in the future. To do something like offer to compensate the people who were building ACs does not help, and in fact is the kind of thing that makes me less inclined to join said commanders’ zerg in the future.
Btw you had more than 8 against 3 oPP( 2 on toons they hardly ever play i might add) and some pugs but why am i expecting you of all people to be honest.
Long story short. Mag wiped the floor with you guys and you only pushed us with twice as much people. On a side note, anet is stupid for immobilize stacking.

Yeah you guys sure did good, 3 oPP never stood a chance. Looks like you enjoyed my immob, you’re welcome.
Lol. Well, at least now I know not to bother looking for oPP. If getting owned and making up excuses is all you can do, there are better fights out there.

Would you look at that, an excuse why you couldn’t deal with a mixed Mag group with your mixed group.

so you are suggesting your spawn only had 3 people defending?
oPP so sick at roaming. Only spawn camp and push out when they outnumber the enemy. Not to mention the continuous retreats to their tower, and running to cannon range.

Your delusion is a sight to behold , you had all VR and kitten while , save for 3 oPP , none the guys we had were in the same guilds and you outnumbered us ( the part you seem to ignore or understand).

And you guys had like 20 when you pushed us. Not to mention copying with venom share.

yea i agree we are total trash for not pushing out against 6/7 VR and some kitten with our 3 guys. :-)
and ahem whats with this perplexity thing Mag got going , even the mobs around spawn got that rune , don’t trust yourself to be good enough without the help of overpowered runes?

On that, I actually stopped following that commander at an earlier time when she did not get on SoR’s tail as they get on durios, giving them full retreat back into SMC. Sure, we didn’t lose anything, but we had all that was needed to wipe them. And to me, a lost opportunity is a lost.
That said though, no one else was willing to tag up at the time and this hour has always been BG’s slowest. Skill can be honed over time, I’d much rather we help each other improve in a positive environment, that invites people to learn together, rather than pointing at fingers when things don’t work out. The accusations do not help the server, all it does is discourage people from taking up the commanding role.
And if you are going to do your own thing, kindly do not speak up. The negative vibe will spread. We’ve done a good job keeping morale higher than our enemies, don’t let a small thing spoil the enjoyment out of the game.

I wanted to just say thank you for all the friendly messages I’ve picked up on here / in game from people across all servers, I dunno how people find out things sometimes but it’s nice to know that we here in GW2 have a decent and supportive community (even if we do all troll like bosses).
So see you on the battlefield and good luck to all this reset!
Wow. I got to make a sammich and the same two guys are quoting their own posts talking about each fight.
If I “run away” it’s because eles have super long cds. If I’m using s/d, my health is super low. If I’m using staff, I can kite for days. I’m just not spec’d for your immobilize spam that you guys are running right now, so of course I’m not going to just stand in 1 place and wait for it.
I don’t know why this celeron guy is even responding if he wasn’t involved. Nothing he says makes any sense.
Well this sucks. 400PPT during my prime time and not much opposition apart from turtles inside keeps. Might be time for me to leave BG
Unfortunately SoR seems to have the late NA early oceanic as a really weak spot. I have a feeling next week the table will turned against BG when we are facing JQ at this time zone.

I am looking forward to the BG vs JQ matchup next week as well. Should be an awesome bag fest for both sides

Guess I play at different times then all the good Maguma roamers ;P Lots of perplex Maguma roamers that are terrible, I have noticed that. Back pedal more!
I bet you 5v1ed them like most ive seen tonight
I run around solo 80% of the time – I saw 1 Mag thief by him/herself and that’s it. Had a few good 1v2’s but always had more enemy’s come or unwanted help from my own server. Had a few good/long fights was some roaming warrior – He was skilled and would stop if someone tried to help him or, and me vise versa which is pretty cool of him ;P Don’t see that much.
I did notice Mag don’t run many more then 5 if they are havoc/roaming to BG’s 10-15, so that was nice ;P
Look forward to the week when things calm down and more people are solo roaming exct. Hopefully they aren’t all perplex ;P
What is with everyone on Badgegate running bunkers when they roam? I realize that you dudes are terrible and face tank everything, but you’re never going to get better if you play such forgiving easy mode builds. Strap on some damage and let’s have a fight that doesn’t last 10 minutes.

Fair point but mistakes need to be acknowledged or they’ll never be fixed. Skill gets honed when mistakes are recognized and never repeated. Positive environment can be generated if the commander talked to her zerg. Something as arbitrary as “I changed my mind” is just going to lose her teammates’ confidence.
As for not speaking up, won’t that not just doom the commander to repeat the same mistakes again, but also eventually lead to frustration when the map’s fully queued but there’s insufficient force in the zerg to take anything?

Everyone’s running tanky builds, they’re the meta.

Every bad player is running tanky builds, they’re the bad player meta.
And stop running regen stun warriors. It doesn’t get any more delta bravo than that.

Everything in excess is horrible for solo raoming. That include both too much bunker and too much zerker. Against a full tanky player, the 1v1 duels are boring due to the time it takes to finish (sometimes it never ends unless the 1v1 becomes 1v2 or higher scale). Against a full berserker is also boring because there is no challenge on defeating these too squishy players.
