For those soloers out there
For those fellow roamer soloers in a world of zerg: I salute you.
Keep capturing camps and causing mayhem behind enemy lines.
At your service!

I usually enjoy soloing in mmos. Thieves really ruined any attempt at soloing in WVW for me.

I solo, but the point system (and the more I understand about it) truly frustrates me.
The zergmentality is one thing I truly hate, not because it’s easy, but because it promotes cluelessness. I hate that person that gets to level 80 through PvE and doesn’t understand what stat does what. I hate that person that gets full BiS (ascended + exotics) and doesn’t understand how to create a build catering to their playstyle. I hate the person who goes for a Legendary and believes they deserve one because they’re them, not because they worked for it.
I’m overgeneralizing but most zerg players are like that. I’ve gone into zergs recently and kept asking myself: What am I learning from this?
I could never answer myself, so I went back to solo roaming.
As for the point system, you get more points the more people “tag” an objective. An objective will give more points (directly to the world) the more people hit it, whereas doing something by yourself allows other players to split up and cause more confusion, but also proves that you have the capacity of doing large-scale objectives by yourself… and you get PUNISHED for it.

Agree there.. But I’m sure ANet knows also that this kittens up the WvW scene a lot and will try to find bandaids for this.. Otherwise, the Wxp- and VictoryPoints-farming zergs will remain..

From times to times I like rolling with the zergball, since you learn to use your skills when your screen is filled with effects and your FPS is reduced drastically.. Also, when zerg meets zerg, you learn to keep an overview in all the mayhem (not just pressing tab and hitting 1, but more like: Hey, that’s their commander, let’s lure him back or kill the mofo).
That being said: I love solo more than zerg play though

Would be fun if I didn’t run a stable 15 fps when doing nothing. I can target the Commanders in ZvZ, but I can’t really react to baits and whatnot when my fps is at 4… if I’m lucky.
I’d much rather just accidentally run into a zerg and then get adrenalin as I panic and run away as fast as I can. When I go into zergs, most of the time we don’t do a ZvZ, so it’s just “mindless 1, don’t even bother with tab”… oh hey a loot bag… oh hey another loot bag… oh hey I died, I don’t wanna walk back, I’ll just wait a few for a res… oh hey a loot bag…
Whereas solo, I can take a camp slowly by killing guards 1 at a time or I can bullrush it with full zerkers and tank all the mobs and kill them all. It’s quite fun, even if I die.
I couldn’t care less about PPT and the overall score.
All I care about is ganking upleveled rangers finding random duels around the map and flipping camps and other such mischief.
