Guild Wars 2

I think its important that this server be aware that either from spy’s or people on our server jumping golems to death or stealing them to kitten around in, or go akitten has got to come to an end. if you see a bunch of golems.. leave them alone! if they are dormant and nobody claims them, leave them alone. The persons who built them might be on another map to deal with enemies, or maybe they are somewhere building more to put them all to use later. Follow the rule, if it isn’t yours and you didn’t build it, DONT TOUCH IT! I wish there was a way to lock golems or take them over from players who go afk and put a kink in a greater plan at work. we should all be working towards the same goal, having fun and making the best out of a somewhat broken wvw system. Please lets all have fun and work together!

So you don’t want players to take empty golems because their builders might be on another map, but you want to be able to kick players out of occupied golems because they might be afk?

What ticks me off is just switching maps alone is enough to lose ownership of siege you built, I understand golems are a different story though.

screw that I built 5 omegas and then get a message that WvW is shutting down for an update. 5 minutes later I am kicked from WvW and when I re-enter they are gone.

Can we get more than 5 kitten minutes notice Anet? every game I’ve EVER played online SCHEDULES their maintenance.

Whenever I see that a build will be available “in the next hour or two” I know that means about 5-10 minutes.

This was fixed. Please read update notes better.

Grandma, I agree with the OP – Golems, like any other siege (catas, ballistas, trebs, rams), should be able to be commandeered by whomever dropped the kitten thing whenever the OWNER kitten feels like it. Kitten staight! And the main reason is because we have ignorant players and/or SABOTEURS running around with nothing else better to do than to destroy useful assets. And you bet your sweet backside that if the other siege could be destroyed by these “team players”, then they would do it as well.

And the more I think about it, Golems should atleast be able to be commandeered by the owner like ALL other siege. And because Golems are mobile siege, the owner should be able to LOCK the golem and TRANSFER ownership to another player if desired. But I guess adding useful functionality to WvW is way too much to ask, eh, Anet?

and these things happen more in t1 servers than any other servers. so glad i’m not in a blob server!

easy to avoid, dont leave golems on the WP but simply hide em so majority of people dont even notice them, whenever i see a bunch of them i start to hide them and refresh the decay timer myself if its needed
