Guild Wars 2

Hello, im currently on FA and WvW is my end game. I can tell with my observations that Tier 2 is not like it used to be. With Yak’s Bend taking the spot of Maguuma, all is happening is blob vs blob. There is no guild fights, it’s not really fair or fun. It’s just impossible to find a 15 vs 15, 20 vs 20. So What is happening is that Tier 2 switched to the Tier 1 tactic. I find no challenge to be the one blobbing and just 1 pushing a 20 man guild group with 60 people behind my tag.

Also Tier 2 is just full at NA prime time. Every single borderland is queued (15+ 20+30+) and it’s really painful compare to 1 year before, summer 2014 almost no big queues.

I’m looking for another Tier.
- I want lower queues in NA
- Fights
- GvG’s
- Stable server/tier
- Less blobs.
- Challenging
- Active guild with raids.

You might look into t4. Specifically NSP. We have a great community, the server is stable, lots of small to mid sized groups to fight with/against. Pretty much no queues though we do queue EB and at least our bl on reset. Feel free to mail/whisper me in game if you have specific questions.

t3-4 are the only things that can even possibly offer what you seek. No other tier has many actively raiding fights guilds, I believe t5 and lower tend to have maybe 1 per server… The lower you go, the less guilds there are and in fact the blobbier the mentality is per guild.

NSP is the most solid t4 server in stability, they’ve proven over and over they belong there. CD has tons of drama, we had a group of people who moved there to play with their friends, they came back to Dh after like 2 weeks. It was terrible they said, lots of toxicity in map chat.

T4, however, might go through a rough situation soon. DB from t3 will move down next week probably, and if they’re competitive in t4 ppt, there’ll be 4 t4 servers, so 1 server will always be in t5, and DB sucks in NA so no one wants to fight them.

T3 is stable on the other hand, Mag/SBI are 100% t3 locked, and HoD probably will lock itself in there too at this rate.

I think t4 sounds like it suits your fights needs more (less blob, less siege, less queues) but I think t3 has your stability desires far better coverage. If you’re going t4, go dh/nsp imo, CD’s toxicity means I can’t recommend them as of yet, and DB’s lack of any NA means they obviously can’t be recommended if you’re looking for guilds. Both Dh and NSP have guilds recruiting. Dh’s guilds are smaller (15-20 range generally) and more GvG oriented, whereas NSP’s are bigger and more balanced in regards to ppt/fights (most Dh guilds don’t ppt at all lolz).

t3 is a mix of blob and fight guilds. its the tier to go to if you want fights guild vs guild open field.

t4 has smaller blobs and guilds that nuthug each other to win. with dragonbrand going down to t4 its going to be a terrible place to be.

i strongly recommend going to mag if you want to join a fight guild. They have many trolls, but a pretty solid community.

SBI has core/dolo and pugs.

HoD has 2-3 fight guilds. The community is experiencing a rift between the db transfers and HoD core players. They actually have large queues than mag during na primetime. They will find success in t3. I also strongly recommend this server.

I have accts in t2 and t3. I think you might be disappointed if you go t3 expecting a huge difference compared to t2…. You won’t have the huge queue, but otherwise……

You could say T3 is now like what T2 was like just over a year ago? That is before everyone stacked in T2 and turned it into T1.5??? Id argue T3 isn’t 2.5 though its more like T2 without the ques and a lot less blobby with good roaming. When HOD moves up it will be pretty much perfect in my opinion.

You realize HoD is the combination of the 2nd most hated server NA (DB) and the most hated t4/5 server (HoD)… They spam siege, they blob everything (BP did move over to HoD, dat 60 man skill group), they have virtually no good roamers, and they ppt before fights. How could they make anything perfect for anyone lol? Doesn’t help that StormBuy Isles is a blob server with low skill across the board except a few new guilds they bought from other servers, and Mag is as filled with ppt tryhard yb style players as it is with fights purists (for every tg there’s a cccp, for every vr there’s an sfd, for every nacho there’s a purplecam, you get the point).

I’m glad you’re enjoying it but just imo we need to avoid giving a false picture of what t3 is. It’s not perfect, even a lot of Mag players have been complaining to me about how boring it is lol.

yeah its not what we wanted it to be. too much interest in ppt and not enough fight guilds. Took too long to establish a fight tier and mag got bored.

This is what I see. It is by no means a bad place to play. I just don’t see a significant difference from t2 for someone who is unhappy there except the queue time. If transfers were free, no harm no foul, but they are not free…..
