Guild Wars 2

With the league nearly here and everyone is foolishly stacking up at t1 servers, Anet surely got themselves quite a lot of money. Will it end here? Nope. When t1 players realize that they will only meet their “real” opponent just one time through out the whole league while having blow out match up for the rest of the league, surely a lot of them will transfer to lower tier once they got tired of PvD, especially Oceanic/SEA players. Which also means kaching to Anet.

Well played sir, well played.

That was a disgrace. Running into crowd when low/downed(with crowd having passive regen buff) and running away to spiders to ooc and regenerate health. That GvG was a disgrace to the GvG community.

Veltoss.9135:

My god people.. they added one tier of gear as a one-time gameplay improvement, why the kitten is everyone acting like this is the apocolypse?

It may be one gear now, but when all the QQers get those Ascended, they will complain more. What will Anet do then? Add another tier of item. This is how gear-treadmill happens. kitten like this happened alot of time on others mmo, and Im afraid it will happen on GW2 as well.

Only a WvW player that kills mobs on PvE and spam F wondering where the kitten is my loot bags!

@Moon

So you think player killing player is not pvp but player bunkering at a point for points is a pvp? Think about it yourself, even Anet has it confused about it, making sPvP/tPvP boring as kitten.

DevonCarver.5370:

Watch this Friday’s livestream.

What is it now? Critters Mastery? Killing a critter creep will give you 1% crit chance? I love it Devon! Btw, more PvE update so WvW will be so lively Devon!

Well Anet is working on balancing warrior as last 2 updates, they have been buffing some powers and nerfing some others but no warrior players complain or contest any changes done so far. Warrior was underperforming and had not really any broken and overpower skill. (100blades + TW self buff were the only two that needed to be balance in my opinion// The incoming buff of signets are to be on par stats with the last patch buff for banners I believe)

tell me one nerf that a warrior got besides the quickness one? Their most damaging abilities now will be able to deal even more damage when they’re the highest damaging class in the game.

You do understand that 100b has to actually HIT the person, right? To do all that damage? Between lack of quick and constant condition removal and the inability to sustain, engage, and disengage as well as most other classes, warriors have quite the difficult time actually killing anything. Catching it, making sure they don’t dispell your immo/stun, and staying alive long enough to do it again if it fails the first time puts the warrior in a horrid spot. The amount of damage they do really is a moot point if they can’t actually deal it.

Just ignore that guy, he’s been yapping on the forum about how warrior able to deal 50k damage and is the most powerful class in the game.

The catch is, he is talking about PvE, which no one give a kitten about it.

They give outmanned buff to make you go out and fight without worrying about repairs, but at the same time they make your zergy opponent stronger with the bloodlust buff so that you can’t even have a fight to start with.

Only monkeys can understand Anet way of thinking.

So again, of course they are worthless. I hope Anet either allow us to save two seperate builds for the maps or have separate queues because it aint going to be fun joining on a bunker build in Stronghold.

If you want to run something tanky, use celestial ele.
-superior mobility
-superior survivability
-good damage
Is also good at stronghold.

Bunker guard is bad at any gamemode (sPvP) and any other bunker build is even worse. It’s always funny to see bunkers on the enemy team because they’re just useless, on your own team not so much though.

Sorry but cele ele is trash in this mode. Mobility/stealth/range wins pretty much. And who else excels in this non other than mesmers. Its just bullkitten how anet failed to overseer this matter, and still not doing anything about it. GW2 stealth and instant cast has never been something I like, and now anet is kittening themselves up with balancing through this kitten. Its like nothing they do will matter since the mechanic of certain classes is just too broken in certain area.

Preacher is just mad GvG got more attention from the players than the sPvP which is one of the game mode in GW2. Let him be with his rage.

Oeps Rolls Necro.2594:

So the biggest complain is using the terrain? Funny i never heard 1 complain doing it and i was there vs RG, TW ,RISE, ESOL and MEOW. But i get it, your necro got killed 1 vs 1 me in the forest.

And its funny to hear a AWE speaking about disgrace. A guildie from you jumped in.

When your opposition GvG leader said to kitten you up in voip, what do you expect everyone there do? There is a limit to someone’s patience, and you guys with your ooc and hiding in spectator just burst his bubble. Don’t go on blaming other guild there to do the right thing than just standing idle at the side. kitten stuff like you did need to be stop, because it’s just painful to watch this kind of dirty play.

p/s: Biggest complain is about how your people run to spiders to OOC and get full health

Zikory.6871:

YES

I know were in the “sky is falling” phase of the patch notes but honestly this happens every change. Have of us cry a lot the other try to defend it, no one knows how its going to work out in real time yet. Wait and see, it may be awesome.

With the buff being implemented, guess which server will get it all the time? Of course the one with more coverage/blob, thus making a server that are already hard to defeat will be way stronger than ever.

Nerds calling Nerds Nerds lmao I’m lovin it

What do you expect? FA has to get their self esteem up somehow…

Maybe next reset they will get a rank 12 and rank 15 server or something, maybe they can handle that, maybe, I don’t want to give them to much credit here…

Lmao TC’s fairweathers make that server look even worse on the forums then they do in game. Good job man maybe next week you will be in T1 and you can pve for the week.

Fairweathers are a bad thing? shrug And if we are in T1 with SoR/BG your right I will be playing PVE for the week. And then the week after, when were not in Tier 1 I’ll be back in WvW…whats your point?

I believe his point is if you keep on running when the real deal is in front of you, then you are nothing but a bunch of spineless scrub. No pun intended, no offense intended.

What a pile of kitten crap thread is all I can think of right now. Thank you Devon for all the promises that never been made is a better choice for your thread title.

Anet is just kitten there are more players on WvW instead of sPvP. So they decided to kitten WvW up so we’ll move to sPvP. Not gonna happen Anet.

Most of you didn’t know this but Anet don’t give a kitten about WvW. All of the class balances are done based on sPvP because they want to make it an eSport so bad. Why you ask? Mainly because WvW will cost them money but making sPvP as an eSport will get them sponsorship=more money.

DevonCarver.5370:

Correct. The idea behind the buff is to incentivize you to show up even if you are outnumbered by pulling out some of the disincentive for losing a lot

And now with the orb buff, not only the player will lose a lot, they won’t be able to put up a match at all. Have fun being outmanned while fighting a 100 man server with +150 stats. Devon is just pure kitten, all his word doesn’t mean kitten. He’s just a puppet that is trying to calm us down by giving us more promises and lies.

tl;dr
Don’t bother asking for rework on WvW, nothing will changes as Anet don’t give a kitten. For trait/skill etc, make a thread on sPvP, but make sure give example related to sPvP, not WvW, because for Anet WvW is just a place where organized guild stay in towers and spam sieges with one hand while jerking off with the other hand. Yes, that’s right, they think organized guild in WvW a kittening joke! You hear me? A kittenING JOKE!

22:00 min onward is how Anet feels about us. Take a deep breath.

I find it funny all the PvF from TC and SoR bashing each other and generalizing the people on the server with bad name when most of them are from NA prime time. We SEA/Oceanic are having fun with the match up, stop making us feel bad with each other when the one with issues is you NA prime timers.

I actually liked the 3rd option, while we’re at it, make it we represent the npcs as well. With this we can hide all day long with ambient creatures and strike the people that come to get their stack.

Edit: Would actually be funny to see a map queue but no one is there because everyone is in disguise.

A class that are able to teleport to you in 900 range, instantly get out of your sight while taking away 30-40% of your hp, and finishes you off in less than 1.5 seconds is a bad game design, no matter what you have to say.

Seriously, stop defending this build. Something need to be done, asap.

“Enjoy this free World vs. World XP Booster with our compliments, as you take part in warfare on an epic scale! To access WvW, press ‘B’, then select which world you wish to enter…”

Anet solution to attract people to WvW is by introducing WvW booster. Made my day.

Habib used to say WvW is a mini game for Anet. I guess he’s right, there’s no point to ask for more on WvW, it’ll stay stale and boring. Lets just treat it as a place to waste time while waiting for ESO/Wildstar.

Looking at two kittens that only spotted thieves instead of reading the whole thing and straight away making fail assumptions and giving kitten advice.

I feel for you OP, there are people like that, it’s just sad to see how people farm WxP nowdays and truth to be told, it also happen in T2. People rather let their keep be flipped so they can get it again for WxP. There is nothing much you can do right now, maybe try to run tagless with your guildies so those people can’t give out your location.

RAIN? kitten that. I want EZNET to stop making PvE update that drive WvW player to it making borderlands a ghost town.

mulch.2586:

I thought the intent was to keep playing at the level your gear supports until such a point that you upgrade and can progress.

Can’t you choose a lower fractal level?

Look, problem now is, higher fractal=higher difficulties=higher reward. But due to RNG, no matter how many time you do the lower fractal to farm, if you’re unlucky, you won’t be able to move forward.

I have 800+ hours of playtime(mostly WvW), hundreds of gold thrown into Mystic Forge, and not a single precursor is rewarded to me. With the price going up, I gave up on legendary. 15 nov, a new patch and a new event is introduced and this guy with trial account get a kittening dusk. A kittening DUSK. He just got here for a few hours and he get a kittening dusk due to a kittening random number generator scumbag.

The way I see it, effort>luck but with this RNG is applied, no matter how many hours you spend, if you don’t have the luck, you just don’t fit to get the best stuff in the game.

This is really a simple question. My rating will be..

Good at your class>Everything else

Lets be real, for all the OP stuff we’re whining right now, it is mostly because of some traits/skill/build, not the class in general. Only a certain build that is making a certain class OP, and if you do intend to make a post about it at least state which part of it is OP, and what needs shaving. This is due to in the past 3 years of game balancing, every single time we asked for toning down the damage of a certain class, Anet decided to nerf something unnecessary that shouldn’t be nerf at all while buffing the stuff that needs to fixed.

No they don’t listen, look at the commander tag, it’s been talk since beta, and yet it is still useless. Just a beacon for people to rally there.

You need to also remember Moba matches are usually an hour long, and all of their attack are telegraph and the most important thing is ALL OF THE HEROES HAVE A FIX BUILD, only thing differentiating them is the item used.

GW2 will never be on those Moba eSports level simply due to there’s too much instant skill, too many variety of builds and the worst part is too many passive play/damage. None of my friends would watch me play GW2, but most of them like it when I play dota/LoL because it is easier to understand and the skills is on how you control your heroes, unlike GW2 it is all about the passive play.

If so, as someone else mentioned in other thread, how about cleansing condition as you use the burst skill? With this, you will need to use your adrenaline more often than keeping it up at all time.

Solstice.1097:

..the game is maturing and players are reaching end-game. they’ve found the class(es) they like and got their gear and appearance they are happy with and aren’t broke anymore, etc. Now they move on to PvP and WvW which is really the end-game for GW2.

The #s going up has nothing to do with WvW changes and has everything to do with the increasing average tenure of your player base.

GW2 WvW is a friggin awesome idea at its core. Just look at how much we all care, even pleading and begging on the forums to fix broken mechanics a YEAR LATER, and yet we are still playing the game despite how neglected we feel.

But why are we still playing? Because we know what WvW can and should be, and we are in love with THAT idea and it’s all of us collectively hoping it someday comes to exist that has kept us around so far.

In the meantime we have even attempted to create our own fun and competition to get us by; take fight nights and GvGs for example. Why did we? Because sPvP is boring and WvW is not competitive. Now those too are bordering extinction due to recent changes.

We are being forced to choose between either skill lag and queues or complete blowouts.

I feel that you’re making decisions based on WvW population #s that would have gone up anyway, and that if you could see a graph of what COULD HAVE been and compared it to reality, you’d realize how big of an opportunity continues to be missed here. Other games like ESO are watching you closely and learning from your mistakes. Lucky for you, there is still time to secure your game’s lasting place in the market. But I’m afraid that at this rate by the time you have enough “data” to realize what you need to do to fulfill the awesomesauce that GW2 WvW could and should be, everyone will have already moved on with prejudice.

TL;DR – your data is misleading you and the clock is ticking

The only reason hardcore wvw still play this game is because there’s no RvR game out there with this fluid combat system. The combat system of GW2 is the one thing that keeps the players stay. Once there’s a RvR game is out with better combat system and most important is a dev team that does not break their manifesto, I’m pretty sure 80% of WvW players will fly there and try it, and hopefully never come back.

The only ones crying here is D/P users. Bunch of scrubs.

I kinda want all of us GvGers to just quit the game for a month, and lets see how lively WvW will be.

Motherkittening EZNET.

Wanna know the last thing going to happen? Lower tier server will be dead as everyone will join the upper tier to have a “decent” PvE experience.

22:00 min onward, the truth of Anet dev

It saddens me to see all these noobs that get the precursor when I’ve thrown 100g into mystic forge and get nothing. It even make me sadder when I know a guy with a trial account get a freaking Dawn.

Anet, RNG is just uncool. Remove it completely.

RashanDale.3609:

Awesome idea, Buzzcrave, i love that. especially since it’s not just the usual whining about downed state. should be implemented as soon as possible.

also, how about not allowing ppl to ress in enemy territory, like inside keeps/towers/camps?

Offair.2563:

This isnt a bad idea at all, could also make dead bodies not able to ress for xx min after dying, each time u die again it will increase in time, or simply a penalty after 3 deaths causing u to ress at a WP only

I like both ideas, but those will be too hardcore or a few step further than what I suggested and they are against what Anet wanted, which is catering the casuals. Sad to think of it that way, but we just need to give a suggestion that are acceptable by the dev. Making defeated player can be ress only out of combat does sound about right to me.

kingcragus.6810:

OR you could learn to interrupt people.

Hahaha, this is cute. I don’t mean to be rude but it is. Do you realize I am talking about outnumbered small organize group against a whole map queue? No matter how organize/skillful a small group may be, they can not one shot a map queue blob, because of aoe cap. With that being said, the only way to kill a map queue is by thinning them piece by piece. Problem is, when you are killing 1/4 of the blob, the other 2/4 will try to ress the ones that are in defeated state(the remaining 1/4 of the blob). When that happen, the small group will still be at huge disadvantage, no matter how many time they kill the blob, they’ll come back instantly through mass ress.

If they run back from spawn, then it’ll be fine since they won’t be in combat for a few minutes=easier for the small skillful group. But with the way mass ressing defeated players now, it is just impossible to do so.

What we need is for Anet to stop making kittenty updates on PvE that give you 30g/h and start putting effort in WvW so people will go and play it.

As this era of wvw in gw2 comes to an end, I would like to congratulate Jade Quarry on having the most successful wvw alliance in gw2.

The hard work that the wvw community has put in on a daily around the clock basis for a year plus has been nothing short of epic. All the battles, the fights, the politics, the drama, the hatred sometimes in and out, the Quarry and it’s honey badger pugs have endured, and will end at the top of the heap. Love the Quarry or hate the Quarry, it has earned it’s place as the Old Warhorse of Gw2.

Much respect to the “Old Warhorse” guilds that make up the heart of JQ, and to those who have came as pilgrims to the Quarry and made it their home. A home in which the mids, and hibs, and albs could finally get along. The home of a global pvp alliance with an almost a 50% win percentage in the most competitive world versus world alliance pvp that mmo’s offer.

The home of the Shadow Gypsies.

We salute you Jade Quarry.

You salute yourself? Congrats on stacking at the end of every era.

Hahahaha! Was about to say this as well.

JaeKeun.5680:

You are not supposed to spend all your time in WvW. It’s just one part of the game, and unfortunately not a lucrative one, neither for Arena Net nor for you.

AFAIK, Anet used to say they want us to play the game as we wanted. What give? They force people to PvE by making the event give tons of loot, thus making other part of the game dead. And these event lasted for weeks.

I respect you PvE players that spent 10 hours per day to farm gold, so you can be rich in a GAME, but think of us WvW player that just want a good 30 min fun fight and… nah I think I’ve made my point.

WOW, the guy is freaking joke, violating his game mode? Turning on his tag? Why is he acting like he is still in primary school?

What a joke.

Think about it. There are tons of guy like him that contribute to the game mechanic, the class balance and kitten. Can you imagine that? A kid like him that pop his tag to show that he is the boss doing all those kitten. No wonder GW2 is in deep kitten now.

All the non important people are talking kitten and stuff, thinking they represent the whole player base of a server. It is amusing!

Anyone else come here and just lol’d because it’s mostly PvE?

souless.1935:

Upset?¿ That’s the one I suggest you read to give you some context on how to act and some perspective on why I think it’s disgusting in here.

Disgusting? Most of us have been giving ideas/complains/suggestion with high manners since BW3, and even though a lot of people agree with it, did they do anything with it? No, Anet kitten it up even worst.

All due respect culling is the only right move that is made by Anet, other than that all of them are killing wvw. I don’t mind this “disgusting” comment that you see, we love the game hence why we are trying a different approach since the “highly manner” one are being thrown aside by EZNET w/o them even looking at it.

Here we go again, the moment of the beta, where all these new people are raging over something that they don’t have any clue about it.

Serves all you T1 right! I’ve making thread and post for months about this, I’ve even get infracted for it. Don’t tell me no one warned you. Now you just need to suck it up or transfer to non stacked servers!

I bet OP and most of other people that complains about the new drop rate(which is only 0.000000000001% of the player base) is the one that have been keeping their ectos for ages to sell them at a higher price, but now it backfires them.

Either way, I’m happy with the new drop rate as it does help a lot for a casual player like me that play the game to have fun instead of farming tons of game gold to do… nothing?

Sir, have you not seen any other GvGs? like you are allowed to move
jheeze learn the rules, your a great GvG team just dont cry over us spreading out more than you

Why do you want to use spectator/terrain/ooc to your advantage in a freaking GvG? It is strictly player killing player with no kitten involved. If you still trying to defend what you did, then there is a place where it suit you, kittening kittenty tPvP.

Actually he did answered your question, you’re just too shallow to understand it.
