queue is big coz all ppl who ever played wvw are on top servers
it’s either you have 1-5h queue in prime time or you never have any
and 133 ppl is max as I know it

Find me 133 people while a map is queue’d. Even half of that.

find it ur self… I couldn’t care less I don’t have problems whit queue and I don’t play in prime times

I don`t care when you play. I don`t care who you are. Stating that the player limit is 133 per map is STUPID. Find me post where the same is confirmed by a dev. Find me a proof that there are 133 players on map. If you can`t please go somwhere else, thank you.

The issues is seen on all servers that have any PvP community.

You can qeueu for only one map at the same time. It is not possible to qeueu for more then one map.

@Isaac no offense mate but go to PvE. You have no idea what you are talking and what WE are talking about. If you were WvW player you would know few things:
1. Qeueus are beyond buggy. There is no first in system or at least the multiple tests performed between guildies have showed that.
2. There is a such thing as server pride and server community. Tho many of you will never understand it.
3. Anet is destoying a well build community with the prices for transfers as they are not loggical in regards to WvW.

You are not getting the picture – our community/server whatever you called it is being destroyed by people like you.

So please go PvE. Thank you.

The server transfers should be based FIRST on tier ranking and then on population.

@Grimpaw its not AoE per say its the mele train i.e. mele weapons which hit in an arc infront, Anet will not nerf them as they are considered single targed. The only mele single target weapon is dagger?

To be honest? Lv 30 stands no chance against lv 80 in full exotics (excluding the rare occasions when the lv80 has no idea how to play his class.)

Every not lv 80 full exotics character will have huge disadvantage against lv 80 full exotics one.

What trolling??! Our server is not clean, it is full of bandwagoners. IT is horrible!

@Deko.3905
Please stop making yourself look like a fool in public, it was funny at start, but now it is sad.

@Deko.3905
Who are we that are fighting, who are you??? Please prove me wrong and tell me that you did not join like 1-2-3 weeks ago. Saying close the door to the core guilds that are leaving the server…. pathethic and sad. Anyway have fun on a dead server after the transfers.

Well if you left this server last week you are also a Bandwagoner.

I really hate what is happening in this thread. The so called “Core” guilds make a thread to persuade people to stay away from the server and then transfer out. It looks like they want to ruin Piken Square. At least the people who transferred here will fight with us, not against us as the “Core” guilds.

I will stay here and fight for Piken Square! Can you say the same?

When I was young I beleived in fairy tales as well. Why go offensive by the way? I was just dissapointment from the people attitudes towards the guilds that pushed and made piken what it is… oh well what it was. Now it is full of badwagoners with the Deko`s attitude – “we are the best we just joined, but we are the best on this server lol”

Tier 8 here we come…

On this forum page, a dev is explaining in details what are they doing and you still whine? WHY?!

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/pvp/wuvwuv/January-WvW-culling-loading-changes/first#post1272774

Why on earth are you crying for something that is NOT decided yet? Anyone can link me any statements regarding the AoE nerfs? WITH numbers in it?

Yes it is wrong for all guilds to join the winning server.

Last night in Piken Bay was intensive! Last second save ftw! Baruch how many did you have there? (you never loaded all for me ^^)

@Steelo No offense but can you do simple multiply? Most aoe skills and melee attacks hit 5 people. If all have retaliation (not rare tbh) you get 1500 dmg back on each hit. There is no way to counter it except mass boon stripping and luck to strip the retaliation first.

@Covenn Sure in some cases you can see it, in most cases when charging into a group of 20 + errmm goodluck to avoid hitting people if they mass stack.

However you put it mass retaliation is OP. Life steal food only helps to stay alive and actually attack. It negates to some degree the retaliation.

Steelo.4597:

retaliation- that thing hitting for 300 damage? very OP indeed.

Exactly

5×300 = 1500 dmg EACH attack. Not chance to proc IF you get critical hit.

Now please tell me which is more OP A food that needs two lucky rows or a sure 1500 dmg back on each attack assuming hitting 5 people.

Love how people are claiming that one thing is bad without even considering what is kinda countering

Edit: By attack I mean hit, not skill usage some skills hit multiple times

Balance against the other foods? There is no other food with lifesteal, thus you cannot compare it. Yes it is the best buff for life steal so what? Where did you see that WvW should be “balance” Anet is balancing on sPvP mostly. You cannot balance WvW. Please tell me how this OP food is going to help you in 20v30 fight or 30v40? It wont, the water fields are gonna help you. Wanna remove them as well?

Please go play a fast hitting class and then tell me that retalation is fine. It is the most OP buff atm.

Really?
A food that everbody can get is exploit, please explain WHY?
Balance something that everybody can use?!
Why on earth are you comparing sigil and food?! They are completly different things.

Please tell me how you are gonna survive hitting 5 people with retalition on few times without life steal. I am really interested.

This food is the only real soft counter to the retalition buff. Even with food you will get yourself killed when hitting multiple people with retalition.

Please don`t exaggerated.

@Alfven
We are talking about WvW only, not PvE. Wrong section.

“Server sizes, queue times are an issue to be dealt with by ArenaNet.”

Really? You don`t have issues with queue? And please tell me how they are gonna be resolved.

You are a single player who waits 30 minutes, imagine a guild trying to get members inside with the buggy queue. Now I respect your thoughts and what you are saying but coming and speaking only for yourself without considering everything is hm selfish no? The server is in really bad shape atm. I don`t see it how it can get better if more selfish people join.

so why don’t you put a CD on retaliation

THAT! This is a horrible buff.

Now I agree the the life steal food is the best for any class with decent crit chance. If you are not such class there are other foods that give nice stats. If there is internal CD on the food it will be useless.

This food only shines in big fights when you hit multiple people with AoE. Otherwise is meh.

drongas.4189:

oh nooooooo. i and my guild with 200 ppl go in pikens next weak, plz let us in

Not sure if irony or not… but just in case please go somwhere else

Why our topic is not on first page? Btw we have cookies

Yes, please don`t come to Piken, we don`t need anyone in time-frame starting from 17:00 to 00:00 GMT or even earlier.
We already have long queues. Please don`t come.
Thank you.

NO way? You are saying that random group of people from different guilds are always looking for advantage like numbers and siege? Hm this is strange never seen it before. I should check if this is true, are you sure that you are seeing it only on Piken?

Hm wrong If you play casual sure, you will not get them, but they are not for casual play ^^ there are people with 120k kills in WvW

Yeap we are definetly on an RP server.

Did not expect that much drama… anyway please continue, I`ll go get someting to eat

[NOM] 10x for the fights last night in Gandara BL and sorry for the sandwitch at Hills N door

Where are everybody?

Aww a topic only for me, you did not have to

The cat is yet to be found and it is definitely not hidden somewhere by a sneaky thief!

Are you rdy for round 4?!

Getting ready for round 3?

Jal.5894:

Before we get accused of exploiting, the take of Bay in AR BL from Gandara was done legit with a Mesmer hiding until he could portal us in -then managed to chain portal using other mesmers to get 40 or so of us straight onto inner

Ssssh don`t tell them!

@shochinhwa
If you ask me last night was all Guardian Wars 2. The previous night was Warriors Wars 2, oh and it was horrible on Monday it Mesmers Wars 2. It is just horrible.

Btw there is (almost)nothing easier to kill than a glasscannon thief.
Someone mentioned basilisk venom… which unlike the moa can be removed with stun breaker no?

@nerva
So what is stopping you from dodging the thief after he ports to you? Uses CnD? Steals? Lands backstab or to root him? Am I missing something assuming that you are not running full glass cannon?

Warrior – please dodge all attacks in group fight. We are not talking 1v1.
d/d ele – same. However my statement for best mobility stays no one at the moment beats d/d/ ele.
mesmer – wrong. Play better, I am melting people in seconds from 900 range and have like 3k more health then my thief. And who said to use sPvP spec ^^
engie – so the engie has more burst than you but you must burst him down first? Cool.

@nerva
You have no idea what you are talking about.
1. Best mobility – D/D Ele wins that fight from the locker.
2. Best burst – Warrior, Engie, Mesmer, D/D ele. Thief has one burst during which he is so vunlarble, the others not so much. And believe me mesmers can do more burst and have higher health pool from 900 range

The only issue with thief is the culling after invisibility as it is the class that has most access to it. However culling is abused by mesmers as well, not on the same level ofc.
Once culling is fixed the thief will stay revaled for at least 3 seconds at least before he can restealth and if you cannot do dmg for that 3 seconds oh wel… l2p And please let us know for what cooldowns are you talking about.

@Spitjaw
Are you playing for the points? kitten it sux to be you in that case. The servers finished in what 9k points difference? And you think there is a clear winner?AR and gandara pushed hard all friday and thursday. Kudos to them for finishing 1st and 2nd. Congrats they won… nothing??! Yeap that is right they won nothing. In addition a WvW match during major holidays cannot be used to measure anything. Its funny to see people like you who thinks points really mean something.
And the stupid alliance again between few commanders that no one knew about (besides their guilds maybe) before it was posted on forums. Keep the QQ on the forums i`ll continue with my popcorn.

Edit:
@Saturn L O L
Simple logic – you finish first the others wanna take you down. Btw I had to fight french all night on piken no idea what alliance you are draming about. Please read above about the “win”

Grabbing popcorn.

@Tortun
To be fair I did not see Gandara players exploiting. Someone on TS/map said so considering the full sweep done ~20-30 minutes ago, it is normal to assume it was exploit. Based on your previous posts and some other info I will believe you this time. Lets say this time Hills was not exploited.
Now all go to bed and leave the map green and shiny

I don`t exploit, if I see a person from my server exploiting I`ll report him as well. This does not change the fact that Gandara is constantly exploiting hills ^^

@Tortun yea mesmer hiding is nice. Tho we did a swipe like 30 minutes ago when we took it first. Anyway don`t want to go into a pointless discussion.

What alliance with who, what, where? Please name the commanders from Piken that made an alliance with any other server.
Shame on the guys from Gandara that exploited Hills on Piken Square! I am this close to posting your guild tag, but for now I`ll pass, don`t want more drama and from I can see your leader is already informed.

Btw too much drama. During holidays is completly normal to have like 10 people in WvW and the next day 100+. So one day you get 10 per tick the other 350 per tick.

Yes it was dissapointing to find almost no enemies while taking all BL :/. I heard BOON and AFTL had some fun with Jade Sea? I so envy them atm.

One hour long fight versus three people, I would love to whatch that.

Let me get this traight you are complaining for a thief which is def specced i.e. uses stealth to gain health and remove conditions?
Would you complain if the did the backstab combo on you and you died in less then 3 seconds?

So, you are saying that a skill that is kinda hard to land (oh god forbit to precast it and steal, shadowstep ^^) and gives stealh should also be very high dmg one?

Hm sounds reasonable…

@Mrbig
The dancing dagger was OP we can all agree here, no point of bringing it up. The sword stealth attack was buffed by 10% (nothing I agree), the daze was lowered to prevent daze lockng. The CnD was nerfed due to the reason above.

So please tell me which nerf was not needed?

It was OP pre-patch daze locking is so not fun. Ofc it will be nerfed. It was the most OP thief build, tho only few used it.

Are you guys expecting for the broken/OP builds to stay? Really? You gonna cry about that?

@tac
Uhh, yes but does backstab give daze? No! So it is kinda normal for the sword to do less DMG. Again you can`t compare raw numbers on skils that do different things. It is simply wrong. In addition to that the DMG on sword from stealth has been buffed by 10%.
Does CnD dmg needed nerf? YES as it provided one of the most usable buffs in the game – stealth and it was hitting pretty hard.

@Dacromir
Very wrong math – you cannot compare two skills that are different i.e. Sword attack from stealth has a daze attached to it.
Please think before post. Raw dmg is one thing, additional buff/debuff/conditions also counts. Please take this into consideration before you start making “math”.

Too many randoms and newcomers started to join zones after we started winning. I was on PS BL before AM BL and oh my god… I wanted to bash my head in the wall. People running around without a clue, no organization, no one following simple instrcutions, no one upgrading things, everybody giving misleading information it was horrible. I tried to be polite… without success. The most frustrating part was that some people typed:
“We don`t want newcomers go to your previous server”
Note that I have not seen any of these people or their guilds in WvW before.

@Gunners Hold and any other server.
Guys please stop moving to Piken we DO NOT need any more prime time guilds. We already have queues. We are not interested in having 2 hours q and be in the 1 or 2 tiers. We just want fun fights and Q is not fun. So if you want to be on the winning side go somewhere else. Thank you

@Gamblit
/off
Stop abusing the stealth culling!
/on

By equally matched you mean AB and GH taking things without defense during the early hours of the day?

I second what Katiechops said, I don`t like guilds moving to the winning server after the first week. On Piken we lost so many matches before, did we jump? No we staid and played better. It is sad, at the moment I have no respect for these guilds that jump to the winning server after one week. Lets hope they prove me wrong.
Instead of having fun and kinda balanced fights… you jumped to get to “winning”. What is the point of winning one week if you loose the next week and jump again?

It is about time for Anet to start charge for server transfers.

Oh god you are blaming Piken for not playing active on Friday before the reset? When we had like 50k lead? REALLY? My guild was on alts and messing around. Sorry for not helping you. Btw there is a secret alliance but I won`t tell you!

Yes there is a secret alliance between Piken and Gunners, that is why we are holding keeps in all zones… coz you know we have to act like there is no secret alliance. But don`t tell anyone I told you about that secret alliance!

Pro hint, maybe gunner are focusing you more as you were close to the second spot last time?
