Guild Wars 2

Lately i been seeing more and more light armor professions everywhere. My server is a tier 4 server fighting a tier 3 and tier 2.

It seems that those servers are stacking necros eles and mesmers and not using guards warriors reves engies rangers or thiefs.

The only time i see a thief is for scouting.

I don’t know how it is for tier 1 servers or tier 5 and lower, but so far we are losing because everybody in the current wvw i am in are using light armor professions.

Maybe i am just a noob but light armor professions have alot of condi and boons. They also have range combat and melee combat.

Does anyone else think light armor professions are too strong in wvw ?

if you dont have guardians in WvW your doing it wrong….

Guardians are the HEARTH of WvW zerg combat…

also condi issue in zerg fights ? pffffff they get instantly removed 24/7…..

anything works if you think it through

Yes.

Necros are free loot. I always target necro because i know that they go down easier than other classes.

There’s only 1 server technically labeled as T4 right now fighting a technically labeled T3 and T2 server according to MOS NA (didn’t see any on EU that fit that criteria) and it’s debatable if this T4 server is losing. However, if they do, it probably has less to do with what everyone plays and more to do with relinks the week after next.

Sometimes when I dont know what to do I go on my semi-retired zerk ranger and pew-pew only necros. Always fun to see them melt like butter while trying to limp away.

From a zerg perspective, seems the medium armor classes are relegated to roaming and all heavy and light armor classes are part of the collective k-train.

Jon snow knows nothing.

well i am on crystal desert. We were tier 4 server and face sos and SBL. We have 1 commander who is literally carrying the entire server in war score.

BUt yea the last few fights over the weekend was a zerg of 50 light armor classes most condi. They are not too hard to kill but even with our revs and durability runes we still get owned.

I don’t know how we are winning i don’t know how warscore works. We try to hold SMC and tier that and everything to tier 3 with yaks and we do gorilla warfare.

We are a very high server facing 2 full servers.

I play a guardian and they tend to spam us with immobalizes chill posion bleeds torments fears weakness vulnerability and lots of aoe (possible power aoes from elementals )

i never see warriors ….and i saw a few rangers and reves today, but a lot of reapers chronomancers and eles … and thiefs are everywhere too scouting roaming and ganking.

BUt i also think that the enemies have specific comps. W/e

I’m on SoS waves at Crystal Desert Invader. I switched from ele to necro this week to practice some, and yeeaaahhhh I feel way less mobile. The thing about the current ‘condi cancer’ meta (or any meta), is that you either have to adopt it as well, or you have to work out a different but effective counter approach. Right now there doesn’t appear to be an effective group countermeta, so expect the whole condi thing to get worse before it gets better.
