[XT] vs Jade Quarry @ North Camp
more like [XT] vs "few people from “Jade Quarry” not coordinated on TS and trying to defend a camp in home bordeland, 1 by 1"
Also, If the purpose is to show how condis builds are powerful, yes they are, especially when you run with a condi-berserker @30k hp (wtf), a duo team of condi revs spamming resistance and others boons, 2 condi necros …
The builds are working, but spamming condis to prove how good the condi builds are effective on small scales, it’s not a viewing pleasure …

The stuff on your screen looks bigger than usual. The circles around the camps looks bigger and it appears you move faster as well. What kind of graphical options did you use to get this?

It’s because I play on a 720p 42in LCD. I need to get a 1080p one but I’m spending all my money between building a race car and planning my wedding lol.. Eventually though!
Gank groups farming in N Camp is one notch above spawn camping. Killing roamers with a skirmish crew isn’t much of a challenge. This is especially true when they siege it up.
Nothing wrong with blowing up the camp and moving on but against non-comm, unoptimized roaming builds you should win that fight every time.

No salt here but I see no fun in an organized group condi-bombing unorganized pugs. Maybe they’d actually have a chance if those pugs were all trooper auramancer tempests or mallyx revs lol.
Ahh yes, the best players all love to spawn camp. You must be so proud.
Nope, I wasn’t one of them to be honest ; but I’m from JQ and I felt like this post was a scam about the truth concerning JQ players. Anybody who get bomb by condi roamers would be down within 3 or 4 seconds. Just because conditions durations needs to be nerfed, as much as boons durations. It’s also what brought massive lags spikes in large scales fights, especially in ebg. The servers can’t handle too much calculations.
So where are the real skills ? This kind of VOD doesn’t show anything valuable or noticeable for me, and the previous posts totally explained why. You might be skilled, but this kind of build doesn’t prove anything. Anybody can spam condis and sustain with 3.4k armor/30k hp.

well you should post this video on that “condi qq” thread in pvp forum, directed to the person of umbra noctis if possible. Just to show him how forgiving is condi play style, with some good example of defiant stance activated while having lot of condis on you and… berserker stance active!!! Or just to show him and all the people defending condis how you can win fights like this while missing 3/4 of the attacks XD or using headbutt while blinded… something that if you would do while running any power/precision/critical combo stats would result in an immediate lost.
Aniway guys i’m not blaming you, its not your fault if anet allow and promote this kitten… you are forced to run condi/boon cancer since if you run zerker, you would have gone down in less than 20 seconds against those numbers

Agree with most except the last part about running zerker. Both of my necros are full zerk, both revs are a mix of zerk/valk and cav, engi is full zerk, my warrior is running full dire.
Meh this has happened before, it’ll happen again, even to your own server. You had like 20-25 kills, with over half of them being singles 6v1’d down. Ain’t knocking it since that’s what a lot of the smaller organized groups do, including my own use to, go out and get into fights like those.
You also had boon sharing going on the entire time, which probably won’t get much respect, it puts organized groups over the top on unorganized pugs, along with ts and target calling. Which isn’t your groups fault, just anets for not doing a better job with balancing.
Also, when did t2 get so salty with the siege burials, geez that use to be a mid tier thing.
Another derailing post. ^^

Still a 6 person group, I haven’t counted but we probably got 30+ kills in that 5 minute fight. We also didn’t take the camp, we finally got wiped before being able to lol.
When we run five deep it generally takes 10+ to even make a dent. Even then they better be pretty decent players. Between our Tempest and Guardian running Durability, it takes a small army just to drop those two and the buffs, fields, AoE flying off them just grinds most builds down.
The videos are hardly worth posting because unorganized roamers running solo builds rather than skirmish builds just aren’t a real contest nor are they meant to be. I think that is what most on here are reacting to… a video of a skirmish crew on comms hitting roamers.

Their composition is pretty far from overpowered so dunno what you guys are whining about, also stacking boons has been meta since the game came out. “Boonshare” specifically refers to mesmers and normally involves stacking quickness/resistance.
I will agree condi is boring to watch nowadays so I suppose streaming/recording is kinda ded. Was gonna look for you guys last night XT but we were pretty fat.

A group on comms alone nearly doubles the effectiveness of the group. Besides boonshare with a Tempest, Guardian, Warrior, Scrapper, etc is meta. Throw in Durability runes and boonshare happens auto-magically.
The “whinning” is that someone posted a vanity video of a fight they should win.

That is the state of roaming, fights like this are about as good as it gets most of the time. The boon sharing stuff is just the 2 revenants sharing might, fury and resistance for the most part. My warrior gives itself a lot of resistance on its own with berserk stance as well. I don’t know what was with the shame siege at the end there but it was the icing on the cake which made us laugh even more as 15+ of them sit in the camp so proud of finally killing the 6 people after we farmed them for 5 solid minutes without us resetting or having any time for our cooldowns lol.

I posted the video because it was a fun fight for us. The issue that group I fought had was that so many of them wanted to focus me, which is silly since I have 31k HP and 3.4k armor as well as two invulnerabilities (one from trait, one from defiant stance) and a 30~ second long resistance from berserker stance. It takes a lot to take my warrior down.
I don’t think the group we were fighting were roamers to begin with, they were people simply trying to defend the camp and their numbers kept growing throughout the fight as they were asking for help in map chat. Again, video was shared because it was fun. Even finally dying in the end was fun.
LOL the siege burials

Basically roamers kept piling into N camp until they had the numbers to grind your team down. Had your team reset and hit with a turn and burn, you probably could have kept fighting until a commander with a small zerg showed up.
Kudos for hanging in till the end and letting them have a “victory” but nothing really to learn from the video IMO.

It would be a lot of fun to try to fight you guys if we had even numbers. Your group comp is a lot better than ours generally from what I’ve seen before. We generally never ran any condi builds, once in awhile one of our revs would run a condi necro but he prefers the rev these days. Also glad someone else understands what the boonshare deal is – so many groups run the mesmer boonshare meta, we don’t even do that lol.

I wish I was streaming comms for this fight just so you could see how much it actually helped us. The entire fight, all we were saying is “wow how are they so bad?” and laughing. I call targets in game and that is how we focus. Usually with a 6 man group, if I call a target, 3 of us focus that person while the other 3 are essentially just doing what they can to find squishier targets so that they can call that target next once ours goes down.
We had fun, we posted a video of our fun. If you don’t have anything nice to say, you don’t HAVE to say anything lol. I won’t stop you though, its the internet, you’re entitled to your opinion.
Oh come on, you spawn camped. Nobody defends that camp, and organized groups rarely retake it. Why bother when a single player can retake it because nobody expects a group of enemy players to hang there.
You basically rolled over a bunch of roamers who were filing in single file to retake it.
I don’t have anything against that tactic, it’s legit. But any organized group would have rolled over those roamers. Making yourself into some WvW god because you rolled over some singles is what we find pathetic.

I never actually took the camp – go watch the video lol… Your comments just tell me you either didn’t watch it all the way or you’re basing your opinions on other peoples comments and you didn’t watch it at all.. They weren’t coming in single file and the camp was theirs, they were coming in defending it lol.. When did I say anything about me being any kind of WvW God about it? I said we had fun.
If you want to have me say I am any kind of WvW God, go look at the rest of my stream highlights where most of them are just me solo roaming here: http://asphyxia.tv/stream-highlights/
That was literally the first night I’ve played warrior in over a year easily lol. I generally main elementalist. I also don’t think I am a WvW God, but I know that I am better at it than most because I win significantly more fights than I lose. It was also the first XT run in almost 2 weeks thanks to Pokemon Go anyway ahaha.
