Guild Wars 2

I’m sorry but comparing Scarlet to the joker is an insult to the person who created him, the joker is one of the most well thought out villains in recent history.

STOP buying gems it’s as simple as that, the only reason Anet keep doing this crap is because people are buying gems.

Anet have been re-using old skins since day one, their design team is either;

1. Lazy
2. Being pressured to use the same designs
3. Have a complete lack of imagination

I’m from TUP (EU guild), best guild this year without a doubt is obviously redguard.

Since redguard left I would have to vote for Votf.

To the person who started this crap, you really think AG would make an alliance with Abbadons of all servers? If so you know nothing…

Cheers Abbadon and fort ranik for the fights on EB, for the past 7 hours of commanding I did nothing but run the AG zerg on a tour of EB lol, loads of fighting which made it a great night for me thanks.

XxX guys never cease to amaze me with their ‘you outnumbered us, try fighting equal numbers’ blablablabla, but when offered to do a GvG with equal numbers they turn it down ALL the time, then they say the reason is because they do GvG in open world then complain about numbers……. I mean really ?

@dikamilo- you should of seen your server blob on your home border that thing was hugeeee

If its tier 1 or 2 maybe 3 I would agree with you. From the way the op talks I would infer he/she is in a lower tier. From my experience the best way to loose Ur zerg is to wipe a couple times. The more casual the player the faster they will abandon. If the map isn’t qued the best way to break down the enemy is to keep them moving. If you just smack into them at ever chance you get they don’t have to move to find you. If you keep them moving they will break down then you can turn on them and destroy them piece by piece

I’m not in tier 1, 2 or 3 I’m from Aurora glade EU server which is silver league and was ranked 13th before leagues. Wiping will lose the rubbish/lazy players from your group, which is always a good thing because they only hinder your group by being rallybots, by no means am I saying take a group and go wipe to the enemy.

I agree on the movement thing aswell but avoiding enemy zergs only empowers the enemy more and gives them confidence to strike at your towers and keeps more, wiping the enemy multiple times destroys their morale and allows your group to move more freely around the map.

Avoiding enemy zergs will only make you a terrible commander, ‘oh look the enemy zerg lets run away like cowards and go pvDoor all night’ that’s such a horrible thing to do.

My advice is learn how to fight, learn each and every class ability so you know what to call for, assign guardian tome of courage groups for the most effective healing along side ele waterfields. Also when commanding never shout and be aggressive with your followers, be firm in your commands but respecting, pugs hate when commanders are shouting and balling their head off etc.

For the above If you have no relevant experience go shadow a top guild group who specializes in fighting ask to join comms and just explain ’ I am looking to become a commander and want to learn as much as I can’. Turning pugs into a deadly fighting force is what will make you a good commander not Pv’Dooring and avoiding the enemy zerg (you can’t avoid the enemy zerg forever).

GOLD league is now super mega blob, never ending queue servers.

SILVER league is now what GOLD league was.

BRONZE league is now well you get where I am going with this…..

This has nothing to do with the players joining wvw, it’s something anet has implemented in the recent patch which is causing the extreme constant lag. Hopefully anet has seen and are rectifying this problem.

Rookni.2469:

I do not think he ment we had any problems with you tbh. Understandable that you all teamed up after a while. Kudos to the guilds that ran alone now and then

Yeah it was pretty understandable and fair (mostly). We knew we outnumbered RL pretty bad at start of evening and felt pretty bad for them. Was a lot of fun anyway when CRUX joined the party.
Got a bit silly towards the end of the evening but … meh, i’ll take it over jade sea bl where there was nothing really to fight.

Hey, we enjoyed the fights vs Dius tonight we ran 14 guys when we met you, each time I thought yes! a good fight halfway through AG zerg swings by for bum action on you (sorry) eventually we left it got far too blobby for us. Met TDA when we had 12 guys had a couple of good fights with them then got violated by Yak when we were cata’ing briar on JS BL, which was followed by more fights with Yak which were good. Eventually met XxX but we were down to 7 guys by then with maybe 1 or 2 pug followers, wish I had more guys to have given you a proper fight. CRUX is new so bare with us in fighting terms, you may get a great fight from us sometimes, others not so much its all practice for us so keep coming at us no matter if you outman us or not.

Sirendor.1394:

Lol. Aurora glade has really dropped in my esteem. Was fighting a group of about 10 AG on JS BL at AG spawn today together with 2 other guys and we kept killing them, while they ran away like frightened kids from 3 people. Had many a laugh at their cowardice and their unending fervor at giving us badges xD.

Special thanks to Nubz (my LOOT compagnion) and Coloss (warrior from Dius).

So you fight 10 random guys out of thousands of WvW players and suddenly the whole aurora glade server has dropped in your ‘esteem’ ? You sir are an idiot, please tell us more of your greatness, please we really want to hear how you fought random guys and they ran away GG keep it up your mother would be proud o_0.

Cheers for the fights tonight, it’s hard being outmanned at every engagement but we’re getting better at it I promise :P. Special thanks to FSV and DW, aslo sorry DW about the south hills fight the other AG randoms came from nowhere o_0. No special thanks to Punk this time :P that zerg you steamrolled us with was unfair still no hard feelings

Agreed I prefer the outmanned situations and overcoming the odds, sadly this isn’t everyone’s ‘cup of tea’.

KrisHQ.4719:

@Bero
I complained about my own server..
And the “Every server blobs, get over it” is the worst argument I’ve ever heard.
It’s not the server that is blobbing, it’s the people playing on it that do.
There is a very simple solution to that “problem”. Don’t run with the zerg.

Worst argument ever? I’m not arguing, I’m stating my opinion on the matter. As for not running with the zerg it will never happen, as much as you want it to it won’t. The truth is that it’s Anet who have the power to change WvW, you may say that we do aswell, in a sense yes but it will never work because we don’t control anything about WvW. Don’t get me wrong I wish we all ran 15-20 man groups with open fields fights all the time, I agree with you about zerging but sadly nothing can be done unless Anet provide the tools or change it themselves.

KrisHQ.4719:

I feel so bad seeing Aurora Glade zerg FS and UW.
Funny thing is that the same people whine about the germans.

This guy is such an asset for our server, complains about zerging and says things like he hasn’t seen a good commander in months. Then when you ask him ingame, he never joins someone on voicecomms. Those are the people we need <3 Keep it up mister KrisHQ!

Haha. I knew there was a hidden agenda with that PM, it seemed like a strange question.
I told you that I rarely join voice-chat because I dislike running in zergs. The reason for that is that my individual skill-level do not matter, which I also told you. This does not mean that I have never been on voice-chat however. But the few times I have been on, it has been nothing but a 30-40 man group running around taking camps and hunting smaller roaming groups.
A thing that I would rather not be a part of.

All I can say is join a guild that does WvW, we have no zerg guilds, highest number being 30 maybe 35 but that’s rare, so there is no excuse to not join one of ours. The zergs you complain about are random / friends joining teamspeak and if there is only one commander tag on the map he’s bound to attract more randoms that aren’t in TS. Quit complaining about zergs that goes for everyone, zergs will happen on every server that’s just the situation we’re in right now.

Complaining on a match up thread to other servers about how they blob is just stupid, I learned from my mistakes of complaining a long time ago, maybe the people who complain now should aswell ? Just take it on the chin, shut up and carry on playing.

natzmc.2895:

I am still standing by what I said, and the reason being is that it is not the type of style AG had in previous rounds, it was quite surprising and seemed out of character for AG. In my opinion of course.

To start with my guild hits an average of 12 guys in WvW max being 18 so your statement about blobbing nice try. Secondly the moments you saw my guild in larger than normal numbers was when the other commander joined in which was NW tower, SW vale camp. Even at NW tower I was pushed by punk, DW and a few FSV that had joined either punks ranks or DW I couldn’t tell, plus a lot of your pugs so again nice try with the blobbing statement.

I have nothing but respect for the enemy guilds, to echo the FIRE guys statement, we never engage if it is one guild vs another, FSV can attest to that from reset night. Also towards the end of the night I messaged the punk commander to tell him that I had become really zergy due to being the only commander left on the map so I picked up a lot of randoms. So please don’t tarnish my guilds name with your rubbish and stay classy Crux’s new motto ‘Always balls deep in that zerg’ understand that and you will realize we never blob.

What you hear in TS should be taken with a grain of salt since 80% of the time, people in TS go in full kitten mode. I doubt most of us can count over 20 anyways, and the ones that can are rather blind
All jokes aside, sometimes it is hard to tell how many people a guild has since pugs (aka rallybots) seem to enjoy tagging along organized groups.
I`ll be working most of this week and i will not have much time to play, but i look forward to more fights against you guys
PS – sorry for the german jokes, we were up against blobbadon far too many times :P[/quote]

Yeah I didn’t take much offence to your team speak comments, especially when one of your guys thought we were around 20 lol (we were 10 guys :P). Also when he called us gays for not pushing at the NW tower, if you were in my situation you wouldn’t of pushed either, from my point of view it was 20-25 FSV?? and then maybe 10 DW next to you I would of got steamrolled if I pushed you. Anyways we enjoyed reset a lot and thanks for your kind words towards CRUX see you on the field

Hey SWAG why you push me that 40- 50 man blob and wipe my 10 guys eh eh EH???? nah all jokes a side really enjoyed all the fights tonight even if we were outmanned all the time. Thanks to punk, FSV and the other guilds we fought tonight it was a good learning experience for my new guild <3

Firstly I would like to apologise to RoF for this match up. Secondly I was the one commanding AG on EB tonight, I made it my rule after the first cap of your keep not to do it again as it is totally unfair to you having to compete with our numbers. Lastly nice defence of your keep drakkar, even though I had the walls really low, 8 hours of commanding took its toll so I went to sleep.

Hi Crux is a brand new ‘small’ guild based on aurora glade looking to boost its ranks. We are currently recruiting to become a force in WvW. The guild will not just be WvW based it will have aspects of pve to accommodate anyone who likes that side of the game aswell. If your interested please do not hesitate to whisper me in game for more information.

Cue the lack knowing what you are talking about.

So I’ve actually been in WvW this week when it has ticked at that level but I apparently don’t know what I’m talking about. If you actually read the graph 3 times this week we have been between 30 and 80PPT which suffices for my purpose seeing as I didn’t say we were exactly at 50 PPT.

And other nights it’s ticking for over 400. That point swing just doesn’t magically happen. We know Wednesday night oce and sea didnt show up due to lag and let BG take everything. So with one night we know what happened and why the ppt was so low, I would judge the other 2 was something similar. Telling us what your ppt is when you dont come out and fight isn’t proving a thing. We all know what ya’ll are capable of.

SoR SEA time consists of NYS and SAHP. So yeah when they are not doing an event on a day our PPT dives. BG needs to stop pretending like we are stacked during SEA. Our Oceanic consists of HIRE and late night NA. Again…..stop pretending like that timezone is stacked.

Sigh… I hate to be participate in but too tempting. SoR isnt stack on SEA? Wrong! You pulled the entire map zerg which lag the hell out of all the kitten.

Anet’s servers are going to break because you guys stack too much.

Are you serious you call that a map zerg ? Bit of friendly advice, if you think that is a map zerg don’t go to EU and play against riverside, abbadons mouth, elona reach, vizunah square and jade sea. You clearly have no concept of what a map zerg is until you fight these servers.

Why so many trolls ? nothing better to do ? is your life really that sad ? NEWSFLASH just in ’IT’S A GAME’.

TROLL

A member of an internet forum who continually harangues and harasses others. Someone with nothing worthwhile to add to a certain conversation, but rather continually threadjacks or changes the subject, as well as thinks every member of the forum is talking about them and only them. Trolls often go by multiple names to circumvent getting banned.

to sum it up for the trolls in the thread you are sad, lonely, pathetic and show a lack of intelligence.

P.S please trolls reply keep showing all of the above descriptions cya \o

Hey would like to thank ATM guild for the fights earlier today, we didn’t have the numbers to compete with you but enjoyed suiciding into you :P. Also thanks to BT and RISE for the vale fight that kitten was crazy (good flanking on us). were still out fighting so hoping to get more great fights. To the people saying we will pv’door that clearly isn’t the case we have been fighting groups of 20 to 30+ all day. Heres to more great fights

@Nauda at least you run at us with your zerg, as much as my 15 man guild raid kittens their pants when you run at us, we give you a good go despite the inevitable ( <from my experience of reset) it’s all practice in the end. Also blobs happen, as much as people want it not to be that way anet don’t care enough to change the mentality, so adapt, learn from your mistakes, use terrain etc…. Most guilds have got to a point were they can take on numbers 3 times the size of them. As a fairly new guild I for one want to get to that point the more renowned guilds are at.

Started of on FSP border today with 15 guys, had a few decent fights then hit the abba blob o_0. Joined forces with BB to get maybe 20-25 guys still didn’t make much of a difference we lost fights but we got revenge many a time so it wasn’t all bad thanks for a good reset

How I see the fights in this match up

thanks all, hope to see you next week <3

Thanks for a refreshing match up, thanks to [MYA], [QQ], [AOA], [SM] and any other guilds I missed that we faced through this week. Also Ezekiel we miss you guys aswell ! come show AG some love ! <3 see you at reset!….

So I decided to pull an all nighter because I was bored. Around 6 a.m uk time 50 riverside turned up on abbadons map with golems -_- all that was left of us ag, was me on my arrow cart and even with buffs I still couldn’t stop them….. sad times I will miss you abbadons hills

With all the nerf topics going around I think it’s about time to bring some sense into the situation. Instead of nerfing classes that are powerful at the minute, why not bring other classes up to speed? Although certain classes maybe overpowered but I think that is due to player skill level not the class itself. The people you die too are usually the people that have spent hundreds of hours perfecting their class, which I salute.

To the few YAK guys that were fighting me and few other in water camp cheers for the awesome fights ! I was the big charr guardian from DAWN guild you kept nuking down <3

Say goodbye to your rams and golems. Guild wars 2 WvW were 1 man and his superior arrow cart is all powerful. This and the timer activation of an attack on a keep are the two worst changes I have ever seen in this games history of WvW.

I am an avid scout for my server I constantly check keeps/towers/camps and I think this new 30 second thing is completely stupid. Even having a scout in every keep and tower won’t stop a highly organized group with 6 golems and timewarps/portals. You would have to be extremely close by to even stand a chance. For example tonight my group was on an enemy border, I checked all the maps as I usually do to see if waypoints are contested on our keeps nothing contested, check again 5 minutes later none contested, as I go to come off my map our home garrison waypoint becomes contested. I immediately port and run to garrison, around 15 seconds after porting I was in the lord room, Watergate and inner gate are down plus they’re capping so to sum it up 45 seconds and they are capping our garrison due to this timer (my server has very low night coverage). still think the timer is a good idea? wait till your garrison/hills/bay is gone before you can even get to it then come back and say its ‘a good change’…….

war is augury guild so yeh……

nico.2946:

If you need this amount to get the YaKs down im happy

Lol we are 4 groups of 10-15 players ofc we are going to group up to fight you, anyways good luck

I now officially dub thee yak guild the new YOLO thanks for sending 40 guys to kill me -_-.

Yak you did some serious recruiting never seen you with so many guys.

Removing the aoe cap is a terrible idea why you ask, one reason and its the only reason necessary to counter your argument….. MASS HEALING, the enemy zerg that greatly outnumbers you would just out heal your damage. I think the fix on the issue you talk about was a mistake, the confusion from mesmers against blobs was a great tool to have and forced the blob to use condition removals more effectively now they can use it freely without the worry of confusion. But adding aoe cap removal to the confusion fix will only hinder the small groups more not improve anything.

Please don’t try and defend them we had this keep for 3 hours before this happened, we swept it every 10 minutes, every corner, every possible place you can hide. Why do people insist in trying to turn this around? are you the one in the picture and feel guilty so you feel the need to try feeble attempts to turn this around? good luck because I won’t reply anymore ‘Reason’ your actively trying to defend people who make this game worse thanks (insert sarcasm) good bye.

p.s I have plenty more screen shots if you need to see them

Maybe pick one that doesn’t show you using an exploit for gain too, eh?

Fyi I was making reports at the time of bugs so that’s why you see SAB bug because they still haven’t fixed it along with many other bugs.

Gandara please sort these exploiters out, we ‘AG’ took EB and upgraded everything to near tier3 then these guys exploit this way in to your own keep. This truly a low move on their part they are a disgrace and should be banned, as I was writing this post they also hacked into bravost sadly I don’t have the screen shot for that because I was tabbed out at the time. This is not a message to condemn gandara as a server but the individuals involved low move very low move.

That is me you have highlighted in that picture attacking the keep. I never once stepped foot in the keep here and as you can see I am outside it killing guards. So please do not place blame on me. I do not hack and if ANET chooses to investigate they will see that. I cannot control what others do. But you should be careful about who you accuse. You should have the person actually inside the keep highlighted.

Apologies I agree I should of been more specific, unfortunately you were the one I had highlighted. My statement was referring to the guy actually on my side of the wall, so I do apologise if you felt I was implicating you.

bravost no rams or cata’s suspicious no ?

p.s I have plenty more screen shots if you need to see them

No trouble Nem, your a good guild I just don’t like calling out names, stuff of that nature. Although I do admit I have stooped to doing it myself In the past which I regret. Keep fighting and hope to meet you soon with only guildies

Nemesys.7251:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGCJAcYsZu4

watch your back you can be the next.

Hey nem, I am one of the DAWN commanders and just to clarify this video the bit in north inner hills were you ‘wiped DAWN’ was actually me and one other dawn member plus 15 randoms. Fair play you caught us off guard the first time, but you failed to post the next bit of the video were me and my randoms wiped you on the outer wall when we came back so don’t get too kitteny because you got wiped by equal numbers straight after.

Dius <3 always in small groups much respect.

lol XxX are getting annoyed be careful they may flank you while your fighting their blob, oh wait they already tried that in their video I see a lot of friendlies on that mini map no ? Don’t accuse of blobbing when you do it yourselves. P.s every server blobs at one time so shut up and get on with it

Recently got a commander icon, although I have been playing WvW since the game came out, I have a lot of knowledge regarding WvW and what to do but I find a collective decision is the best, I come up with a few solutions and put it to the people I am leading and the majority rules that way its everyones fault if it goes wrong. For example I made a decision to lose a fully upgraded bay to hold a t3 garrison, hills and north towers the majority ruled in favour and it worked out we managed to hold the rest of the map till the opposing enemies left our border all in all a success, I suggest most commanders try this

Again with the blaming on a whole guild it’s one guy from a guild and i’m sure their leader will be reading the forum and having words.
