Guild Wars 2

Hello, i have a lack of knowledge, and my logic about WvW is this: I am in a Far Shiverpeak server, where i RARELY see structured and organised movement, for example, led by a guild or two. So it all comes to either we outzerg them, or in an equal number of players fight we are soloing and enemy is usually more or less structured. So yea, I assume and state that far shiverpeaks is run by kids (which is obviously not true, but that;s how it feels when you play). I am only lvl 20, and i want to lvl in wvw and i can;t do that, as there are no decent wvw guilds as well. I am a hardcore pvper, all i see is transfer to another server where commanders wouldn’t just run around, and zerg folowing him.

If you could give some advice what should i do i would be very happy
Sorry for bad english and my bad knowledge about the server i am in

I was in your same boat, didn’t know anyone. I just kept roaming around the game randomly joining groups and supporting them, at time running solo missions. At times doing my share of making tactical suggestions in chat of how the battle should unfold.

I’ve gone through about 6 guilds meeting people randomly – each guild had it’s own focus and feel …and some were simply not my flavor, they weren’t bad ..but farming jormag got a little old for my tastes.

I finally ended up in a guild that I’m very happy with, and I always find one of my guildies in somewhere I find interesting.

My advice is just have fun, play your best, at low levels, try to avoid roaming the grounds alone …and find any formed zergs to run with if you want to fight. eventually you will be invited to the right guild – expect to go through a few of them before you find one that’s right for you. I got to the point that I simply looked at the whole server as my own guild…that alone landed me in the right server and now I feel at home with the right server and the right guild. Took a minute though and was frustrating for a while.

Unfortunately the type of behavior that is best for leveling is not the organized structured guilds. The most experience comes from hitting weak maps with a giant zerg.

I’m currently leveling my third character through WvW. 80 engi and ranger, currently a 66 thief. I’ve actually found that you have to do a little bit of it all in order to be successful leveling.

The hardest thing to do is to go out by yourself while leveling in WvW. Being sub 80 can really hamper your abilities to kill things in a timely manner i.e a guard/dolyak before somebody shows up. I suggest staying away from solo work for now. The zerg can have its advantages, provided they are actually accomplishing something. I’ve seen many times where zerg simply fights another zerg in open combat, while the smaller groups are the ones taking and defending. It ultimately depends on the way a battle unfolds, as to which route will provide you with the best exp.

I tried to find guild groups that were forming up inside the spawn, and i would follow them. Try to tag along, but pay attention to what they’re doing. You don’t want to be the guy that puts the giant orange swords up when they’re tying to ninja a tower. Stick around them long enough, and you just might have found the group you’re looking for. Or, maybe they’ll suck at getting stuff done, and you’ll know they’re probably not your type of group
