The WvW holy commandments!
10) Thou Shall realise that Auto Attacking a gate and/or wall accomplishes nothing, and thou shall watch ones flanks.
If you’re not doing anything else, you should autoattack and hold down the reverse look button. Auto attack damage REALLY adds up over the 5 or 10 minutes it takes to down a gate with seige. You could take down a gate with autoattack damage alone if you were so inclined (which you probably shouldn’t be.)

Shouldst thou in thy folly break this command and yet auto-attack the gate, Lyssa will frown upon thee, and smite thee with her golden swords of contempt. And thine enemy shall descend upon thy bottom and stomp thee, for thou committeth a great folly in the sight of men and gods.
Whenever thou wisheth not to incur the wrath of Lyssa, as thou approacheth the gate, thou shalt count three of thine party to clear it. Three shall be the number of the attackers, and the number of the attackers shall be three. Four shalt thou not send, neither shall thee send two, except if thou then sendeth a third. Five is right out! After thou have sendeth thy three companions, thou shalt create a portal above a cliff and ask the four PUs who went in anyway and thus incurred Lyssa’s wrath upon thee, to step into it and run in. As they do so, thou shalt all type /laugh, as Balthazar blesseth thee with his boon of sadistic pleasure as he sendeth thy foolish companions to the rock below and smasheth them to tiny bits.
(and the people did marvel, and they did celebrate, and they did feast upon the deer, and rabbit, and raccoon, and eagle, and rat, and sloth, and antilope, and cuttlefish, and cliff racer, and pig and cow, and porcupine, and furniture, and Logan.)

1 flame ram attack has the strength of 100 maybe even 150 regular auto attacks, take out the people that are attacking your rammers from the wall, not the gate.

If you’re not doing anything else. Reread!
The guy was saying skill attacking does nothing. It does a LOT.

- If thou places siege down to be built, thou shall ensure that supply is readily at hand to build such siege immediately. If thou lacks such supply, thou shall ensure that a steady supply is incoming to ensure that said siege is built in a timely fashion so as not to disappear before said siege is actually built.
- If thou captures an objective and subsequently CLAIM said captured objective for thy guild, thou shall ensure that said captured objective is properly defended with siege. Thou shall also ensure that upgrades are properly purchased, Dolyaks are being escorted and guild boons are activated. If thou does NOT have guild boons to activate, thou shall NOT claim said captured location.
- Thou shall NEVER activate, under any circumstances, thy guild’s Boon to increase supply by +5 on a Keep or Tower. See subsequent Commandment below.
- It is the responsibility of all within said lands of battle to remind those around ye that removing supply from Supply Depot huts within Towers and Keeps is not allowed. Thou shall repeat this in Team and Map chat on a regular basis, reminding those around you that said captured location requires upgrades and supply removed from aforementioned internal Supply Hut is a detriment to such upgrades. Supply should ONLY be taken from Supply Camps.
- If thoust be of the persuasion of Elementalist, then thou shall ALWAYS and WITHOUT HESITATION carry on thines-self a focus and use liberally thoust holiest of holy spells the “Swirly-Whirly” when defending siege equipment. If thoust not carry said implement of defense, thoust shal burn in the deepest depths for 1000 generations once said siege has been destroyed by thine own failings.
- Thou shall, at every occasion, report all thieves no matter the situation. This includes perma-stealth, stealth abuse of culling, or even if said thief is just standing in an open field doing nothing or AFK. At all times thieves are hacking and exploiting and thou shall dost thy best to have them removed from said game.

no, no matter how you look at it skill attacks are completely obsolete to siege weapon attacks.

Well this was Necro bumped :P Fluffball is right but it depends on numbers.I found about two weeks ago, AAing does add up if you have a good 30-40 people but otherwise, Walls + Flanks = most important.
*Thou shall feast upon thine cakes, cookies, tarts, pies, or other glorious food items in preparation for battle. If thou lacketh these items, thou shall do one of two things: learn the trade of cook immediately or purchase finely cooked products from the mystical Trading Post.
*Thou shall also keep thine blades sharpened. Or thou shall attune thine staves, sceptres, and foci. Thirdly, thou also has the option to maintain thine self with oils. Thou must choose one of these three options lest Grenth reign fury upon thine soul for a thousand years.
Also this is a beautiful thread and you are beautiful people.
Thou shall not transfer to another server or you become a traitor for life.
Loyalty Wins Wars…
2 years later and I’m still right!

That’s an odd stance to take considering all the transfers ET has recently received..

Thou shall shun all condi roamers.

Thou shalt not become a siege troll. There are no punishments in Hell severe enough for them.
Thou shall not chase after one guy with ten of your friends after stacking on the commander for supply count..
Thou shall not chase after one guy with ten of your friends after stacking on the commander for supply count..
Thou shall not jump on 1 guy and spam laugh when it took 10 of your friends to help chase him down and kill him.

Thou shall not run away after thine commander hath instructed thou to charge into glorious battle against the mere five arrow carts with two operators, and thine zerg numbers thirty.
Thou shall use common sense, and shall not drop an arrow cart or ballista to wreak havoc on a gate. Thou shall continue to use common sense, and shall not drop and build a most holy Omega Golem in front of thine enemy’s defended tower thou are attempting to take.
this thread is awesome, wish i could hit +1 more than once
Thou shall not use knockback if any fellow players are nearby, otherwise log out and uninstall gw2.
Remember your bear with sweet memories.

Amen!
Thou shalt not stand afk upon a wall, unless thou be a fool
Thou shall abandon this gamemode for it is an mode that has nothing new to offer since it’s coming into existence.

HERESY :P
Thou shall chase down, stomp, laugh at and ridicule every single Bearbow with 10 of your friends for they are laughing stock of WvW and deserve such a fate.
Thou shall destroy 3 perfectly good rams so you can build 3 more rams in the same location.

Do I detect a Bearbow?
“…let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we shall die;.”
No I leave the bear at home. I find that most warriors are dumb enough to completely ignore my pet so I use a useful one like marsh drake to poison them and build might stacks for me.

As a longbow ranger you shall focus on any thief spotted first before all other enemies.
Thou shalt only dispatch enemies at Hills’ catapult wall using Banish.
Thou shalt love and cherish your Necro with speed buffs so that he shall be able to use his Spectral Walk for the purpose for which it was granted – to break stun and run like the wind from enemy focus.
For, remember, it is he that corrupts thine enemies boons and fears them from thine sight.
