Welcome to the EB|BP|AR matchup thread! I’d say play nice, but LOL that’s not going to happen. At least try to keep it somewhat civil.

~insert standard chest thumping and ludicrous boast here~
Now that we have that out of the way, let the games begin!
A fair few all got DC’d from Eternal Battlegrounds about 40 mins in, kinda sucks as a EU player on a US server on reset night.

and RIP J.H. thank you for the soundtracks to my pvp for so many years.
Shh Fraeg, it’ll be alright. I’ll hug your corpse as I loot the bags you drop.
I lol’d pretty hard when I found that BP mesmer from [UV] hiding in the same spot I was going for. We just chilled for a while, and I bet I know what he was thinking:
“Does this make my butt look big?”
Yes, Asuran BP mesmer. It made you look titanic.

This new arrow cart buff is kitten and caters to bads.

Nah, I will just have a Famous Cowboy Breakfast then dance the dance of 10,000 wombats
After many long months [CHAR] have reviewed my application and I have undergone their rigorous 27 step review process. I am now finally an honorary charr. I have even circumvented Hakanoy’s efforts to keep the guild community extremely secretive.
Proof of my endeavors: http://i.imgur.com/dclerWL.jpg
I hope to see you all on the battlefield. I claim keeps in the name of CHAR!! Unfortunately we do not waste our influence on upgrades so plz mail me 10g if you would like to claim the keep for upgrades.
To the Warrior from the guild TWIN I just fought outside of the Ehmry Bay Borderlands spawn point for AR…nice job, had a blast fighting you. Hope to fight you again soon.
WAR is out to challenge/learn from any guilds that would like to partake in a 15-25 man GvG. It would have to be during our NA prime time hours. We need a 12-24 hrs notice if any guilds want to throw down. Wiping is learning. Good fights all around tonight. I don’t think there is anything left of Garrison at this point…

And here I was just going to comment how almost spine tingling it is that our three servers are almost becoming a community of sorts. I’m noticing it not only in the forums, but on the field as well. We be laxing out there by the end of the week. Lots of chilling and even folks teaming each other just to chat.
Bizarre… Gives me a case of the fuzzies, but bizarre nontheless. o.O
That is what happens when you stick with the same folks for weeks on end. Meanwhile my arrow cart in ARBL Garrison needs more tears to feed it. (nearly a full worldxp level purely by def got to love it)

I do love it actually. I’m sorry, but if you’re dumb enough to stand in three layers of overlayed AC fire I say let natural selection take its course. Especially now that those arrows are digging lil deeper than they used to. Also, the increased cart usage appears to mean that I get Daily Dodger a lot faster than I used to, lol.
Semi-related sidenote: Did we used to get credit for trebbing before? I don’t know if we did, but yesterday during our massive back and forth tug-of-war for Anz I got full credit for the capping despite never leaving the treb I took the walls down with. That new as well?
Had lots of fun tonight, good job everybody regardless of side. And AR…I apologize for your BL, I truly do despite me being in EB’s BL the entire night. I hate seeing you guys get hit this hard, especially considering that I love fighting you guys more than anybody else (plus well, I was hoping for everybody’s BL to remain their own color).
Arg… nearly 6hrs later EBay finally takes our Garrison as x amount of us left for a moment supply ><" bravo…
@KStudios — i find trebing credit has been iffy.
That mass disconnect at eternal..GG

Funny we don’t hear many complaints out of them either. They’re hardy steadfast folk as far as I’ve seen. Tenacious too.
@KStudios — I find trebbing credit has been iffy.
So it is new? I seem to recall half the time I see trebbers hopping off their positions and scrambling as if to say, “hey guys, wait up!” Definitely a good add-on. They’re the ones who spent the 30 minutes plus taking down the walls. I can’t say I have a great deal of experience with trebs. I mostly free-roam, so when I did siege I was an arrow cart jockey before it was cool.

how official is this matchup thread?
how official is this matchup thread?
We’re calling such because we three have all been together so long that we’re no longer going to be updating the thread every reset. It has been months. We may all get along about as well as the Hatfields and McCoys, but we’re almost kin at this point, lol.
Seriously, I’m half-considering looking to AR to see if anyone wants to babysit my little “zergling” on Saturday nights.

Ebay is smashing, BP is playing for second, and AR is getting demolished. Now translate that into numbers as you see fit.

Score update:
EB: 12621

Well this week I just wanna fight my friend before AR goes to tier 6.
Seems his ranger has been hurting my fellow ebayers
Wishing our neighbors in t5 a great match this week. See you soon.

See you soon indeed, as long as you guys don’t do a repeat of last week.

P.s. Love your handle. I miss that show so much.

Im so sad i missed the reset again, i only played the first 30 mins of it without commanding and it was amazing.
p.s : good job Ebay, now if you want to move up you must control your hatred and hit the weak side or you will end up as always, max 20k ratings

Anvil Rock has had plenty of aggro this past week. BP stopped being the only focus as early as Sunday. BP’s 30k rating turnaround by the end of the week shows that split focus.
Also got my first taste of the new AC meta from the defender’s standpoint in AR’s bay a little bit ago. Good job taking that back. We had maybe 15-20 people, and you guys had a lot more. Seriously, your night crew is impressive. The fact that the arrow carts held you at bay for so long is disgusting. I hate it. Even after you treb everything you can down, well placed ACs in lord’s room aiming in coordinated spots to protect all the others on ACs are pretty much impossible to take down with the new ranged buffs (which we had). Sure, we got a lot of bags, but I know how it feels on the other end of things and it sucks.
Really really really can’t wait for that nerf. We shouldn’t have been able to do that, and no one else should be able to either.
Ima start training ppl to build ACs super fast in the open field.
Next WvW group vid will be nothing but 10 doods doing GvG while haste building arrowcarts
Get at me

I’m hoping they drop the damage down from 80% more to 50%, with the outmanned buff making it 75%. At least then being outmanned will mean something…and because one Superior Arrow Cart is deadly enough, even without that buff (when you could still tank them, though you’d have to get out fast).
So, I’m stuck at work/on call until Monday. Hopefully someone will run havoc in ARBL while I’m trapped doing the bidding of “The Man”. What’s the current score situation?

Sorrows furnace seems to have a better NA than dark haven. DH catches up usually after the weekend though. Watch out for that =) they seem to have better coverage overall.

You’re completely right. I just made that up because I was bored.
Just wanted to write a quick thank you to the Ebay and BP havoc squads (and an almost zerg from BP outside of north hills) on Arbl this morning.
I have to admit I was surprised when we rushed up the stairs to get back SW tower from Ehmry. I was sure it was suicidal with the Ac you had already in place, but we managed. Oh and to the 4 or 5 GH havoc group, I was the lonely mesmer standing in Astral trying to figure out if it was worth my time to upgrade and place siege. Then wham right in the back, surprised the ..ermm nugglets out of me. Thanks, reminds me to always keep an eye out in those situations.
As for the BP, I think I mostly saw Edge, and some Moas. Either ways thanks for the back and fourths I had a great time this morning. Sure feels nice to be back on arbl this week.

That’d be great if we did, trebbing can get quite boring quite fast as well as being very unrewarding however I don’t know if they changed anything like this or not. All I do know is you have always been able to get credit for the cap if you are able to hit the npc’s in the lord room of the tower with treb fire as well.
Nice use of camera hack by the Sylvari guardian commander from ALS to get the bay back. gg.
is this what you’re talking about ?

i guess they learned it from Ebay
I’m with that guy in that chat box, what the hell is a Zoom hack?

I’m not sure if it’s still happening but during that mini dungeon, SAB, on the final boss, some people’s cameras would glitch and stay zoomed out. They would then enter WvW with a zoomed out camera which can see everything inside a tower and they would use this to their advantage on an arrow cart.

are you forgetting BP is master of glitching into towers/keeps?
It’s a bug. Some world bosses zoom out your camera beyond the regular distance out. If you enter WvW during one of those fights, you stay in that farther-than-normal view distance and can hit over walls.
It’s cheesy and should have been fixed. Coupled with windowing and messing with the width vs height of your screen you can hit some silly things.
Yeah, you can really tweak the dimensions of your GW2 screen to see into funky places without glitching/exploiting/etc in any way whatsoever. Someone posted a really good picture demonstrating that last thread.
Arrow carts firing really far back but in a straight line from the player is not abnormal. Calling it exploiting is just silly. Arrow carts hitting around the sides of walls at angles that are completely obstructed under normal circumstances is exploiting. No amount of tweaking your screen around and playing with dimensions will allow that. I think that is what Teldec and some players from last week who have screenshots of it happening were trying to point out.
Well that was some good fighting at Ebay Bay. Cheers to both sides
