Guild Wars 2

I want to start trying some WvW, but it’s completely empty and there’s no reason for anyone to play it right now. The scores are 370k vs 45k vs 25k, with my server being the 370k. So i’m wondering if there’s a server right now that actually has an evenly matches WvW. Thanks for any help guys!

the TC/FA/YB match is very close. the BP/GoM/AR match looks to be just as close too.

AG/AM/Gandara is pretty even. We just lack peeps atm, but we wont give up easily ^^ GO Aurora !!!

it is almost as if the problems of server transfers, ET, and HOD will echo for all eternity.

Tiers 3 and 7 for NA have the closest competition in all WvW. I don’t know about T7 since Fort Aspenwood has never been there, but T3 is intense. Unlike T7, T3 looks like it will be competitive in the foreseeable future. Both tiers will see a rematch between the current servers on Friday, but a couple of weeks from now, HoD/ET will drop to T7 and upset the balance. I would recommend coming to T3 if you want a close match.

Fort Aspenwood has many WvW guilds that you can join. I will of course recommend the one I’m in. Tarnished Coast is an RP server so if that’s your thing, definitely go there. Yak’s Bend would also be a good choice.

Tier 1 is relatively balanced as well this matchup. haven’t checked today but last night SBI and JQ were within a couple thousand points of eachother and SoS was about 30k out in front. Not sure if that lead was due to the event over the weekend giveing us a strong lead that we’ve held onto or not. The point intake was not particularly lopsided last night however.

Alright, thanks guys. Now I just need to wait 3 days so I can transfer.

I might be looking too , I would look for the lowest even tier , No ques for wvw , top tiers I hear an hour wait? no thanks

no idea about FA or TC but Yaks Bend has no queues at all.. even NA prime time.

i’ve heard a Blackgate person say they have no queues on their server either, but i wouldn’t recommend anyone transfer to the top of any tier.. i always say go to the bottom. if everyone goes to the #1 server, which they seem to do.. competitiveness in the tier suffers.

There’s actually a number of decent matches right now. After a month or more, the fallout from the blackgate/henge/ET/SoR (among others) mass transfers is finally stabilizing. Shouldn’t be more than a week or two before henge/ET stop falling and creating gross imbalance. No offense henge/ET guys who stuck with it, not your fault of course and I salute your loyalty to your server. With any luck, we won’t get much more band wagoning.

The fight in tier 4 is pretty even. Come join us on Crystal Desert.

CD has the point lead by what 60k but the fight is pretty even, CD has zergs we have good teamwork… dh has some stuff too I’m sure ;P all kidding aside the fight at least is really fun.

I’m on the bottom tier servers and we had even fights until more people moved in on one server. my suggestion would be dropping in on Ferguson’s crossing as they have a good core just lacking more players.

Sure start a new thread on this topic.

The ‘balance problem’ has been there since BWE and ArenaNet insisted that once servers balanced we would be giving each other group hugs. No one really counted on the fact that WvW is fundamentally broken and that 90% of matches are not balanced due to folding effects.

Come down and join us in Tier 7. We’ve been here in this tier 7 for like 4 weeks. Every week is full of surprises. BP kicks off with a big gap, then us GoM will at some point catch up then this week, surprisingly AR took the lead but then BP fought back.

Really, everyone is having a blast here in Tier 7. And the way I see it, AR, BP & GOM will be fighting each other for the next 2 weeks.

Tier 7 is definitely competitive. Tier 8 used to be but then DR got too many influxes of players and active WVW population that they’re now looking at an upbump into Tier 7. There was another competitive tier beside 3, but I think that turned into a faceroll this week afterall. The link shared above for that website will show you the overall scores for the week thus far and every week that a matchup is going on. If you want competitive, you’ll move to a server that the numbers are fairly close and then it is just a decision of which one of the three you’re going to move onto. I’m sure any of them would be glad to have you.

If your on NSP in that matchup that I assume
It is from the score than please stay! We will
Have an amazing match up next week

Yaks Bend have consistently close matches as we are somewhere between Tier3 and Tier4 and neither win or lose by big margins.

We have many different guilds from WvW centric, to hybrid that focus on pve as well, like my own ToG guild which has over 600 active members.

Good luck

The Tarnished Coast has had two great weeks of WvW and it looks like we’re on our way to a third. And we’re winning (at the moment), which is always nice. We’re the unofficial RP server, we’ve got a pretty good community and some great guilds. We’re not the toughest server in the world, but we’re working on improving.

If you’re looking for a place where you can work with others to improve both your own and the servers performance, TC’s a great place. If you’re looking for a place to sit around kvetching in /team playing armchair general and insulting people, look elsewhere.

If your guild every consider to join a EU server, we from Desolation would welcome you with open arms:)
Now that RUIN left us it feels like all the negative bs is gone and we are starting to build up again.
if your interested PM me or come ingame my name is Felerina Dalure from Forsakengamers(FG) and i thank you for you time to read this.

Some of our EU players already play on Desolation, although some play on Yak’s with the American and Aussie contingents

The problem of course is that a matchup that is even one week, may not be the next. Population moves around to much for stability.

Unless we get any major shifts in power again, the top 3 tiers are fairly stable in the NA ladder. I’m from TC and we’ve had even matches for the past 2 weeks now, going into a rematch. Other than my own server which is awesome obviously, I have to give a vouch for Yak’s Bend. They fight hard, and they fight well.

Me and my small guild are getting really tired of our current server and tier. The tier has become very uneven because one server received many new guilds. Also, our server has too many people and commanders who seem to know nothing about Wx3. Everyone’s just running around aimlessly, not coming to defend when a tower needs help, running past Dolyaks that need help etc. Really frustrating and not fun at all.

Tier 3 seems to be the most fun and even to me (I’ve been following the rankings for a while now). I’d really love to transfer there. I don’t care about winning at all, but I do care about smart tactics, having fun and fighting till the end, so can anyone recommend which of the 3 servers could be the best fit for us? I’ve heard some good stuff about Yak’s bend (how they’re mature people and know how to WvWvW even though they don’t have great numbers). Anyone want to shed some more light on tier 3? Thanks.

All three, or as I like to say 4 since I consider Crystal Desert awfully close to us in tier 3, tier 3 servers are very well organized and would welcome you. Personally, I’m on Yak’s more because my guild is a wonderful dungeon running guild that also delves into everything else including WvW. But you really can’t go wrong with any of the Tier 3 servers. As has been said before, TC is the unofficial RP server so if that’s your thing they would be a great fit. From what I’ve heard FA is more of a hardcore WvW server with some great WvW guilds like Gods, not sure but I believe they pioneered the D/D elementalists that have become the latest rage in WvW. Yak’s is more of an all-around server that has guilds focused on PvE PvP and WvW. And if you like the underdog, go with Crystal Desert as I’m sure they will be back up here in Tier 3 soon.

Tier 3 is very competitive and balanced in WvW from the most part across servers, FA, TC, Yaks and even Crystal Desert have the fighting spirit and rivalty in good sense that make matches fun week after week.

T3 has been great ever since I came here. The battles are close and rarely blow outs. Yaks Bend and Fort Aspenwood both consist of gooed and honorable players. Ignore the little spats you see here and there from any of those 3 servers, all 3 appear to be great.

There is a que at prime times on Tarnished Coast, which can sometimes be upwards of an hour long on Friday nights.

<3 fighting TC, FA and CD. Great competition!

Yak’s Bend is looking for more WvW players, especially EU guilds/players for the night times.

Badger Spirits [BS] which is primarily a WvW guild on Yak’s Bend is always looking for more skilled players.
