Thought i’d note that sbi has a major bot problem in ebg. Looks to be a bunch of charr rangers with guild tag… [PREP] I think, can’t really remember.

http://www.stormbluffisle.com/index.php/forum/wvw/1910-what-s-with-the-bots

Since this is allowed, why don’t we all just do the same thing, capping camps with our own army, taking towers pvdooring, and the scare the hell out of people to make them think we greatly outnumber them. It was funny though as I watched all the bears moving in synch, hitting the same things, running back at the same time.

Funny thing is. I assume by the guild name it’s the same guy from WoW which I captured on video doing the same thing in battlegrounds (though it is allowed in that game.)

He also posted a thread questioning the rules, yet still breaks them.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/What-is-the-purpose-of-the-multiboxing-rule/1997657

It’s like he cannot understand why he isn’t allowed to one shot every one with a single key stroke.

Found a video of his showing off his guild list and wuts this at :40 ? “GW2 KEYMAP IS NOW ACTIVE” ?

In NA prime time, EB often has a queue for SBI. At those points, the only server the multi-boxer is hurting is stormbluff. Basically he’s making the queue ten players smaller, or maybe 7-8 if you count him as effective as 2-3 people.

SBI.. Please deal with a player named Reikou guild [ADL]in TS. He came into our TS and Didn’t tell us he was SBI. He was spying on our ts. Please could you take care of this. We know that this is not how you guys like to run your server or your game. Thanks

Interesting. I was commanding when you posted this, and the user Reikou was in the map at the time, but he provided zero valuable information at all, and more often than not got himself killed and complained about it. I reported him for griefing after reading this post, but I honestly don’t know what ANet will do about a TS griefing violation. I recommend banning his IP from your TS and making people validate (we do this on ours). On more than one occasion we’ve had a CD member or SoS member in our TS, and we make it a point to purge anyone who doesn’t confirm themselves regularly to get rid of them. You should do the same, because we don’t want those “spies” any more than you do.

So while we’re on the topic of cheating. How long before the “We Are Prepared [PREP]” guild is going to stop ruining the WvW scene with their rampant multiclienting? Is this guild just one person with a bunch of accounts or what?

I’ve reported every single account of this user, and have instructed my groups to stop whatever the hell they were doing and do the same before we moved on. That’s the best I can offer, and I hope that ANet bans the accounts, but it’s really in their hands.

I sincerely apologize to our opponents for any “bad seeds” that may be doing stupid things. If we could do more to stop them, we would.

This boxer is easily deflatable if you can get inside his ‘personal space’ and have good AE abilities. I flanked around him while he was busy with our large group then Steal > Daggerstorm which caused enough chaos with his bots that we rolled over him quite handily.

What a horrible thing to say considering that I didn’t even type anything in chat during the entire time =O.

Still though, this WvW drama is actually pretty fun once you get into it!

CD had a pretty cool training session going on yesterday, and where they taught all sorts of cool little tricks to new WvW aspirants, and then took them to SBI borderlands to train. Perhaps we should learn from that SBI!

Shoutout to Huntyre and Boaky for the informative Guardian lessons as well!

Will be sure to see you guys in TS next week!

I could be thinking of someone else, but I remember your name and remember thinking at one point that you were complaining about something that I didn’t think was relevant at all. Otherwise, I’m saying this a day late, and I can’t say I commit the discussions of every player in-game to memory. A lot of people were complaining that morning, so if I’ve offended you, or perhaps am thinking of someone else, I apologize.

Either way, please don’t harass CD on their TS. Hopefully they IP ban you from it. :/

I greatly enjoy the jumping around chasing, fighting and different mechanics of the engineer and in particular wish to thank the EB roamers for bringing the pucker factor.

Good luck all, enjoy the game.

Moar Engies! My first class was an engineer. Loved it for the longest time, but I could never figure out how to work the kitten thing in WvW. That said, some of the best fights I’ve had since then have been against engineers.

Can you please just ban them if they’re trolling you on your TS? It’s what we do when we get trolls from other servers, and as a result it’s not a problem and we don’t even have to bring it up on the forum threads. If you can’t, you need to get your server admins on to help.

There is absolutely nothing we can do to stop people who insist on trolling you, particularly because it is an incident outside of the game so we can’t even report them. We’re sorry it’s happening, but you’ve got to learn to take care of it!

Then why is this even an issue?

Here’s some inside info to maybe set your mind at ease…

We already know what CD is going to do. You’re going to hit Ogrewatch/Umber and you’re going to find a spot to treb Stonemist. That’s your playbook. We also already know what you plan to do in every open field engagement (run north if red, run south if blue).

The minute you stop doing that every single night we might have need for a spy. For now you’ve just got a troll on your hands.

I doubt every troll out there knows how to change their IP. Of those that do, they don’t have an infinite number of IP addresses to work through, so I’d happily keep banning him until he runs out. Even if he has thousands.

Thanks for the two cents Maladon but we arent talking EB. Maybe you didnt recieve info that night (ill take your word for a fact) but you cant account for the actions of all on your server and certain things discussed have been reenacted by players on your server that very night. Maybe you can take my word for fact?

Ultimately i can confidently say that we in CD arent worried about said troll and are jelly about being blue over red in EB.

Nah. Ever since Dancing Dagger nerf, dagger off-hand has been pretty bad.

The utility that Headshot and Black Powder bring are far superior to what the Dagger offhand can provide. Shadowshot is also much more useful than death blossom.

Hmm, I see. I just don’t think that running D/P without +2/sec ini regen and +2 ini on stealth is very safe cause to open with stealth you’re already dumping 9 of your 15 initiative which imo is dangerous since you have no ini regen boosts. D/P skills are generally quite high ini req. skills so for me having +3ini/sec regen and +2 ini on stealth is a must. I don’t like initiating pre-fight stealth with my utilities cause I generally reserve them for mid combat. Imo, sacrificing the 25 in DA for 25 in SA is worth it for the extra survivability you get.

Different styles of play.

Stalling out in stealth and killing your opponent through attrition only works on bad opponents who let you kill them, in which case any build would do the same thing.

Come out and fight guys please, you even outnumber us 3 to 1 on our own border come get your loooooot

Ermm, what is the point of capturing a Tower/Camp/Keep if people are just going to abandon it and come out to fight? If you are looking for fights, you should just go PVP

Why sit and hide like little girls when you outnumber us 3 to 1?

Come out and have some fun is all i am saying

A pretty typical SBI vs CD battle.

thats not a 1v3

Agreed. It’s merely three 1v1’s back to back to back. You have to applaud his efforts, however, attempting to make the video more impressive than it really is.

I saw your D/P build that you use and honestly, you should be using D/D instead. The lack of ini regen and stealth buffs defeats the point of using D/P.

Nah. Ever since Dancing Dagger nerf, dagger off-hand has been pretty bad.

The utility that Headshot and Black Powder bring are far superior to what the Dagger offhand can provide. Shadowshot is also much more useful than death blossom.

Hmm, I see. I just don’t think that running D/P without +2/sec ini regen and +2 ini on stealth is very safe cause to open with stealth you’re already dumping 9 of your 15 initiative which imo is dangerous since you have no ini regen boosts. D/P skills are generally quite high ini req. skills so for me having +3ini/sec regen and +2 ini on stealth is a must. I don’t like initiating pre-fight stealth with my utilities cause I generally reserve them for mid combat. Imo, sacrificing the 25 in DA for 25 in SA is worth it for the extra survivability you get.

D/P can stay in stealth forever when no one is around. That alone should tell you some thing.

Before it was shortbow that was a must have for all thieves. Now its D/P.

Because stealth is oh so useful when no one is around… D/P is the flavour of the month though I really don’t know why. It’s an amazing build to troll people with and that’s about it. Far FAR less dangerous than a glass cannon D/D thief, or a P/D condition spammer.

D/P is a hard counter to a P/D condition spammer. D/D is just all round squishy and gets a lucky backstab when you’re not looking.

I’ll believe that when I see it. I find it hard to take a build seriously that does bugger all damage while remaining so fragile that a well timed breeze causes death. The micro managing the constant stealth is a pain in the kitten as well.
