Guild Wars 2

EnRohbi.2187:

All I hear Maguuma talk about is how nobody on DB ever roams or 1v1s,

Why do all Dragonbrand players generalize entire server populations?

I mean, really.

Because that’s what just about every person on this game does…?
One person is their entire server, didn’t you know?

And despite what they try to teach you in grade school, conforming to society is highly encouraged.

PS: “All I hear” is not a generalization, it is a statement of personal experience.

Well to be fair, the last guy did only say how bad he thought SOME solo roamers in DB are, which isn’t even most and definitely not all.

Because you can’t even hold a camp, nobody on my server ever roams?

Um, I said “dat build.” I’m referencing the build in the screenshot: glass cannon staff Ele (zerg build huehuehue).

It was tongue-in-cheek. I know not everyone in DB only zergs. But I just found it funny given that it was posted on the same page.

It must be tough only having 30 – 40 people on each BL to protect your camps.

Yeah dude, I’m not silly enough to generalise to an entire server. I’m sure there are a bunch of baddies on SBI too. I’d include myself against certain professions as I said.

But there have been some terribad ones tonight and most of them have been NNK.

I only played an Ele up until level 20, Mage classes have never really been my thing. (For some reason, Mesmer is a glaring exception to this and was in GW1 too).
So I’d never recognize a GC Ele build from a skillbar

It’s so tough
All your biggest, zergiest guilds should transfer here so we can keep at least 50 people on every supply source and outside all three spawn exits.

On a completely serious note: I’ve been sPvPing all week and I even lied about roaming. ;D
Roaming is fun when you go into enemy territory, which barely exists this week.
I’ve started taking the “If you want small-scale combat go sPvP” advice that kittenbags have been giving on the forums since launch. It immediately solved all my frustrations about not being able to find fights some days in WvW.

So next time you got wiped by NNK, be ashamed.

I was ripe for a break anyways…

I can’t believe I’m saying this but I actually prefer the QQing about the matchmaking system over the “you suck, no you suck worse, no your server’s roamer suck, all you do is zerg, your zerg sucks, no your zergs suck, no your server’s roamers suck” kitten stroking kittening contest that the forum has devolved into.

Oh no I’m familiar with Mag forum warriors, I’m from SBI. And I do remember that during our last stretch facing Mag I stopped logging into the forums until a different matchup.

Strange how they are much more reasonable and plesant in game. I mean this is the only time we’ve been able to work with another server and pull off a 2v1 and it is great fun. Actual stragegy being used, why can’t we talk about that?

Just wondering if the amount of /laugh and /dance emotes that Mag’s typically spams has gone up or down. I’m thinking the latter?

It’s just that a few sore losers on forums always give Maguuma a bad name. They don’t represent Maguuma, the server.

Are you insinuating that we should judge people based on their socioeconomic status and form of employment?

I was gonna come on and post a thanx to the DB party that battled us SBI’er on DB BL’s last night, on the bridge between Redlake and Hill’s for a good two hours. Was having good times with the back and forth but then DB pulled a DB move and brought 50+ to try and spawn camp us, which was lulz. The first try ended up with a good amount of you getting you’re kittens narfed by the legendaries and the next 4 times you tried ended up with us repeatedly wiping you back into your little tower. Our Pug hand is strong on SBI.

At least you didn’t put up 10+ pieces of siege to spam camp like you did in EB, though seeing what happened in DB BL, I get why you thought they were needed :P. Appreciate the great back and forth we had at hills bridge with our 10-15 for the extended period of time but could do without the spawn camping.

Here’s the thing.
First off, every server has spawncampers.

Even if you put on a Commander tag and yell at everyone spawncamping, your server still has spawncampers. So I’m gonna glaze past those comments without any more reply, as it’s foolish to do so.

As far as the “Pulled a DB Move” comment goes.
When we’re ticking +600 and more, that means there is an entire server of people looking for action that they aren’t getting.
That back and forth battle you had was probably the only real battle going on in all four maps; of course people are gonna show up as soon as they hear about it. You would have done the same.

and +1 to the post above this one, very funny!

Last night, during NA prime time you were ticking no where near 600+. SBI was ticking well over 200 most the night. Should have clarified that it was not during pvdoor funs. And yes please tell me how I would act, cause it would be creepy if you knew me that well…. ;o

Pro tip: stating in-game observations based on personal experiences is not “judging people.”

Also this match up for me at least i find boring its not fair to MAG or SBI simply not the same numbers and coverage i just hope this week doesn’t hurt peoples spirit on those servers and ya’ll keep coming out and giving them hell!

I would hope the 2v1 us, they kinda got put into a crappy matchup, especially SBI. They don’t have the SEA coverage that we have, and frankly it’s not exactly fair.

SBI you guys had an awesome golem rush into inner bay on SBBL this morning! Almost had it too, think DB showed up right before the lord. Keep at it guys!

manbearpig.8095:

well RE is having fun sieging towers

We trained them well in JQ

This matchup is interesting because it actually encouraged a somewhat sustained 2v1 on the leaders of the match.

Wasn’t WvW made so that 2 servers were supposed to attack the leader until the leader changed? The lower tiers never got this. They would always attack the weakest of the 3. Weak.

Three realms is basically a safety net to avoid one server blowing out the other two. However, Anet messed this up by adding points and ratings. In DAOC having two realms attack a third to steal a relic or take back territory worked just fine. In GW2 each server is looking for points so it’s just human nature that they’d get those points as easily as possible.

Considering the odds we’ve been given, I think we should be proud of ticking at the top…even if it was only for 5 minutes last night :P It’s not the standard 600+ point post, but hey, it might be the best we do all week!

I got dizzy watching the warrior run around in circles and even think he/she executed an impressive figure eight move. Pro use of the 1 key. BTW Agg is very aggressive in their movements, could have used it to your advantage PYRO. Would like to see DARP vs Agg plz!!

Yea a D|ERP vs Agg be cool to watch
or
PYRO/D|ERP vs TG/Agg…. that would be better
