Hey fool where are you getting your facts

let´s see? from everybody in my guilds and friendlist? around 90 hardcore wvw only players

You need more friends that are smart

Or is it more the problem that no core wvw player want gliding in wvw? only pve players that jump in wvw and than complaining that they die off cliffs ?

Ask 100 wvw veterans ( 2k+ rank not eotm 100k+ kills) and over 90% doesn´t want gliding in wvw

What in the hell?

WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF YOU ARE IN COMBAT? Disable in combat gliding. Otherwise it means anyone can run away from a fight by just gliding away and literally makes HoT Pay-to-win. Seriously. It NEEDS to be disabled to deploy gliding while in combat. Seriously. This is why gliding in WvW has always been the stupidest idea.

I don’t think you have the strongest grasp of how gliding works. If they try and run away by gliding off a cliff, just toss out a little cc and watch them fall to death, lmfao.

For that you require to have ranged CC. So now you have to make sure you have ranged CC on you at all times which means you have to change your build AROUND gliding? That’s kitten.

BEARBOWS REJOICE, OUR TIME HAS COME! It is our time to shine for we have waited for this moment forever, lurking at the back of the zerg.. Never wanted, always rejected. Finally we will be accepted into squads and people beg us to use our glorious longbow #4! PEW PEW PEW!

Wait, so we still have those “get where you’re totally not supposed to be” port “errors” unfixed, but now there’ll be gliding too?

Fantastic I need a giant tub of popcorn to see people trying to catch mesmer with a falling trait equipped (as in “quick, enemy is about to take it, get onto cliff and hide”)

Hopefully they disabled the bloodstone fen gliding skills lol.

Still means smc will be brutal to defend… Need to watch out for third-floor smc drop veil bombs now as well.

Still very stupid, however. Corner someone into top floor garri while you siege it and they can just jump off a cliff to ooc glide and re-enter through various gaps. So much mesmer abuse in keeps… The list keeps on going.

The combat and balance alone is already laughably bad. The matchmaking process is poor. Now we have broken fight and territory mechanics to boot.

So Fire keep is pretty much screwed for whoever gets it?

I mean, unless you have people sitting on ballistas 24/7 you can glide directly into inner.

You can only glide in territories you own. So if you don’t own Fire Keep you can’t glide into it.

Okay so let me get this straight… Out of anything you could have been working on for WvW, new map, separate balancing for our game mode, more rewards, balancing changes for WvW. You go and do the thing most veteran players DO NOT WANT and apply gliding. Do you’re players even bother going to WvW or join TS or Discord? I don’t think you guys do and it shows. You haven’t clearly been listening to us and I am greatly appalled by this change.

Dear anet can you please stop kittening up wvw. People like it just the way it is right now. When you guys look back at the release of the desert bl map. Was that a great succes? No. But u guys kittened up wvw then and this will be the same. Stop putting pve crap into wvw. We the hardcore wvw players dont play pve. So please stop messing up our content. I know for a fact that lost of players will be leaving the game because of these things. They only game back when its back to normaal.

What does this mean for people you knock off cliffs with your own skills? Do they still fall to their deaths?

When cced, you can’t enter the glider in PvE maps, not sure exactly how it’ll act in WvW.

It will function the same in WvW. So if you are knocked back while in gliding you will fall to your death.

Does the splash damage from catapult and treb projectiles only proc when hitting environmental structures or also player hitboxes while flying?

Would love to hurl some rocks at the enemy blob, when they are gliding past my shiny castle.

Shield Generators should get a 3d update too, so you can place barriers into the air.

Well you cant glide unless you are really high elevated.. So im assuming gliding will be good in Desert Borderland since it has so many Levels. I wonder if there will be skills you can use while gliding.. Other wise.. Gliding wont be good for anything but just trolling or trying to run.

They can’t glide if they don’t own the territory if i am seeing this right. So if you own garri for example an enemy mesmer wont be able to glide. however you can perch high up to try and see him and then glide down and chase.

This game mode continues to get worse and worse, the list of problems just gets longer and you decide to add more crap that doesn’t add anything. What do the people who want this expect to be improved? The meta is lame and it isn’t helped by the skill lag.

Guys calm down haha. Actually think about how the gliding works.

1: From the looks of it you can’t glide in enemy owned territory. So no the enemy pushing garri cant just glide away. The defenders however could try and use it to there advantage to regroup.

This will affect roaming as well. I doubt youl see to much gliding away. Im sure there will be SOME. But not nearly that much.

2: Gliding isn’t flight. And while they are gliding they CAN NOT FIGHT BACK. SO whack them odds are if there just on a small hill they will still be in melee range for a bit. Also if you have a ranged weapon they are a free kill.

3. THIS IS A kittenING TEST PEOPLE. Cool yourselves down. If it really IS horrible they can turn it off later. If its NOT horrible its an actual dynamic change to how the game mode works.

Thanks to how there setting it up this also means that f2p players and PoF players can enjoy it. As it will be tied ot wvw ranks and NOT mastery. So its available to everyone.

Read before you flip your kitten.
