Guild Wars 2

I’ve been fighting for Devona’s Rest for a bit ( world rank 21 ). The feeling is one of being a target dummy for the entertainment of other server players.

A common scenario is to have 5 or more warriors descend escorted by a thief and compete to be the first to get the “finisher”. There is no possibility whatever that I will win.

It reminds me of the Queensdale “train” in which 40+ toons ( many 80’s ) attack a helpless “Champion” and destroy it seconds then get credit for a champion kill.

I like a challenging game but this feels abusive. How about a little balance?

Yeah….unfortunately not a lot can be done if you run into over powered groups. We have the problem at the moment of 40+ zergs camping in our spawn wiping out anyone brave enough to venture out or small groups of thieves hanging around the keep picking people off.
Think reality is, these days you need to run with a reasonable size group or even zerg to be competitive or have a chance of surviving and i’m playing on a bronze server.

We are starting to see a strategy of leaving the lowest powered server alone as a distraction for the higher powered opponent.

gawd i feel sorry for some of the lower power servers as they have no chance whatsoever – they are an easy target; in saying this I had to laugh last week when we (ros) were having a large scale battle on the walls of stonemist against rof. While this was happening fow sneaked in and took stonemist.

There are strategies that take advantage of having a weaker opponent on the map we have not seen used much yet, but we might. It’s not cheating to leave the weaker players on the map as bait.

Perhaps now you’ll realise there’s an order to things in the Universe. Some people get to win, others get to lose.

Get used to it, you’ve got a further 50-60 years of it coming.

They are looking into fixing this. It isn’t an easy fix.

Funny how the leagues have brought out all this frustration, when this uneven matches have been happening since launch, even before the rng days.
