Guild Wars 2

Here’s a quick video I just made that talks about placing arrow carts right at the gate to destroy their siege and then move on to placing rams to hit the door. I believe this is the most efficient way to quickly take a fully upgraded, fully “sieged” tower and with 2-3 people manning the siege inside.

Basically if you want to capture a tower you have 2 options:

1. from a distance with catapults and/or trebuchets
2. hitting the gates with rams and/or golems

You can also try the ninja option, but I’m talking about T1 servers where people actually defend what they capture.

The first option gives you much more distance from the enemy and with swirling winds you can protect your siege. This will pretty much render all their siege worthless cause they can’t reach you, unless they have a trebuchet inside, but you can built trebuchets too, further away.

The second option involves being in the range of enemy siege fire, near the gates. You can clean up the oil, canon and all the siege placed on the walls, but most of the time you don’t clean up the siege placed inside in the courtyard. And I’m talking here about the always present catapult and the 2 arrow carts.

These 2 options also apply for capturing keeps, but I want to talk about the towers because not many people know about the weakness of the tower gates. There’s quite a big hole between the gate and the upper wall and you can build 1-2 arrow carts right at the gate, like you would place rams and start hitting all the siege inside.

It’s very important to first take out their oil, canon and arrow carts on the walls. Once you cleaned their walls, then move away and come back again in 5 minutes for the actual attack. During this time it’s very probable that they didn’t have the time to rebuild the siege on the walls.

If you do this, you are basically ignoring all their siege and the only way to stop you is if their zerg comes in and stomps you. But if you move quickly with 3 superior rams and 2 superior carts (that’s 190 supply, 19 people) you take it faster than they could mobilize their zerg.

Wow, no one is interested in this. Ok I’ll post a kitten. Let’s see if this gets any interest.

Hi everyone,

As this thread has gone kind of off topic we are closing it. Please refrain from this behaviour in the future.

Thanks for your understanding.
