Guild Wars 2

10 -1 imbalance, no replies from the Anet on it. I feel mislead as a customer!

Not sure what your point is?

That you can pay to be on the winning side. Where you outnumber your opponent 10 to 1

LooooooL
If you pay that amount of cash to chocho train yourself to the boredom… Than just do it

Except no-one cares about winning a matchup, much less eotm??? Its very different to paying to win gear for example allowing you to one-shot in fights.

Videles.6759:

That you can pay to be on the winning side.

I didn’t realize people cared about winning Eotm. Sounds silly :P

Im going to try to decipher what you mean here. Winning servers are not always green, Overgrowth seems to, more often then not outnumber the other 2 sides in EoTM making that farm/leveling impossible or difficult. So paying to transfer to winning servers doesnt make EoTM farming easier, if thats what your getting at. Heres the thing, wvw players have little to no sympathy for EoTM issues, because many view it as a braindead karma/champ farm overtaken by lowlevel pve’ers. Also, nothing there matters, its color based not server, so its not like your fighting for anything. Its just a place to screw around in, its meaningless, so dont expect much sympathy here.

@OP:

You can karma train perfectly fine regardless of your map color. Switch maps until you find a good instance.

ANET: I propose changing EotM to EotKT. Edge of the Karma Train sounds so much better.

if you really want a sense of winning/competition, than go to normal wvw because in eotm, nobody would care about the score. Everyone there is farming or leveling their alts.

No need to decipher I’m on blobwars this week. Look at the attached imaged. Spawncamping with two zergs of which each is bigger then the 5 opponents left. I guess a lot people here paid for a transfer to SFR. No other way you could find this imballance okay..

It is EotM. No matter the devs intention. Rarely anyone cares about balance issues on this map. It’s for farming and more farming and some additional farming. Plus, you can farm really well there.

Or if you wanna feel as a great roamer. Roam a bit, you will find so many players with karma train experience only and/or zerg builds, making them often no competition in a roaming setup. So here you can easily 1v3 and win the fight. Just stay away from the blobiness of the map^^

You can’t farm anymore. The golden age is over !
Now when people see they’re not with SFR they don’t connect. Rounds start with “outnumbered” for the 2 other factions and 1 hour later SFR’s faction is spawncamping the 3 or 4 irreducible new players.

So where is the fun ? Where is the karma/xp ? The farm ?
And as you say you’re roaming against upscaled players… no fun here either …
Even for SFR’s faction this is boring as hell.

I am rarely playing in EotM. It never was fun, because I don’t like PvE very much. The few experiences I had made me question the mentality of all the karma trainer zerglings there. But that’s just me. I certainly cannot judge the right way something has to be played.

But this is, imo, part of the reason, why we are, where we are. Granted that what you said is actually accurate. In EotM you don’t wanna be left behind, wanna get the most loot, wanna get instant rewards. This is fine, if you want that, but this is why you’ll never see organized resistance to a huge blob or even fair play. Why don’t people go play in “real” WvW? I am sure everyone’s server can use everyone. Balance chances to EotM are even more unlikely than to the rest of WvW. And they already say, that the “competitive” part of WvW is not supposed to be balanced. This is how it was announced from the beginning (even pre release). What makes anyone think, that they will implement some balance changes to EotM ever.

EotM is an overflow map. There are multiple shards for EotM, which means that the map that you came across doesn’t even represent the state of EotM because no such thing exists.

Actually most of the times you don’t get the outnumbered buff anymore. <sarcasm>Guess there is some dev attention</sarcasm>
